Sql-ledger posting dates

currently, when billing is cleared to sql-leger the invoice in sql-ledger is dated using the date of the moment you clear.
Is there any problem if I change this so the post goes using the encounter date instead.

I don’t see a problem with it technically.  It seems a question of what’s generally accepted practice.  Should a medical services invoice date be the encounter date, or the date the invoice was created?

I added a line on ws_server and ws_server_26 files as well as the correspondent field value in WSClaim.class so the user can choose whether or not to use the DOS as the billing date.

Posting date remains as the default. If you want to switch, then at the ws_server file look for this line:

    #Uncoment this following line if you rather use the DOS as the billing date.

Nobody else has commented on this, but in working with a couple of clients recently I’m more convinced that using the DOS as the invoice date is preferable.  I’ve made it the default behavior.
