Goal

Why is Receivables entries made during the month transferred to General Ledger during the month but in general ledger their effective date is month end?
For example I entered a receipt in the receivables on GL date 01-may-15 and then transferred to GL on 14-May-17 but in General Ledger a Journal Effective Date Is Period Last Day which is 31-May-2017
