There's Payment Date on the invoice record which is when the invoice should be paid by and there's Payment Date on the Invoice Payment record, Dist Payment record, Check record, Electronic Payment record, and Credit Card Payment record which is when it was actually paid.
It becomes very confusing when they both are labeled "Payment Date" to know which is the actual payment date and which is the date it should be paid by.
All reports and inquiries using Payment Date (when it should be paid by) would need to be updated also with the new label/description.

I completely agree as this also flows over to TimberScan and our users run inquiries thinking the Payment Date is the date of the check.

This is even addressed in the knowledge base (ID:69070) telling us to submit this enhancement Request so this is obviously common issue. Please correct "Payment Date" to be "Due Date".
On the invoice record it should be called "Due Date"
"Payment date" Should be available in Custom descriptions to set it to another value such as, "Due Date", "Payment due on", or something else not already in AP.
