We enter a lot of Do Not Post pledges and rely on the GL Post Date for reporting. As it stands now in RENXT when you enter a gift as Do Not Post the GL Post Date disappears. Please consider changing this to allow a GL Post Date no matter the GL Post Status.
I have lost hours one day trying to figure out why a gift wasn't pulling into a report while referencing Web View for the gift information only to discover that what I thought was Web View displaying a blank for the GL Post Date was actually it not showing it at all. GL Post Date is a fundamental piece of gift information and needs to be enabled to view and interact with regardless of the GL Post Status in order to be at parity with Database View.
We don't post to a financial system so Do Not Post best reflects that, but we still want a date.
Many orgs use GL Post Date for queries but they still capture Do Not Post gifts in those queries. It is odd that this field just completely disappears from webview when choosing that option, but it shows back up if the GL Post Status is changed in database view.
We do the same. Not being able enter or change the GL Post Date in Web View is a hinderance.
We also rely on the GL post date for reporting. This option is necessary before the sunset of database view.
