  Review Transaction Logic: If you are using a program or transaction that automatically sets the key date, review the logic to ensure it is correctly determining the appropriate date.
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the dates or the process, consult the SAP documentation or your organization's SAP support team for guidance.
