Future-dated / post-dated payments

We have customers who pay us with checks that are future-dated.  We would like to record this payment but only want recognize the payment in the future date.  Is it a straightforward changing the posting date of the payment entry / journal voucher? Or is there a special feature or field that accommodates this behavior?

We have not yet used the payment feature of erpnext but have plans to migrate into it soon.

Thanks for any tips/advice.

Yes, you can book the future payments by entering future date in the posting date. And on realization of cheques, you can update realization date using Bank Reconciliation form. Also, these payment entry will not be considered in Accounts Receivable report as on current date.
