UK Backdating invoices

[Riskreep]

Invoicing post month end, the odd couple of invoices needed to be raised 3rd March for work in Feb. I backdated the invoice to 29th Feb.


Is this OK? Typically what are the alternatives treatment options in this scenario?

Many thanks

yes, it's fine as long as nothing on the invoice happened after 29 Feb. It's not uncommon for companies to wait til the new month begins and then send out an invoice dated the last day of the previous month for everything relating to the previous month.

The benefits of doing this are? Cleaning up of accruals?
