When can I backdate?

The system will only allow backdating if it does not overlap with another movement action.

Note: Analysis and Custom Actions are not considered movement actions, and therefore can be backdated to any time in the history of a lot. Addition actions can only be backdated within the last 14 months (430 days). Movement actions can also be backdated to before those actions, but not before other movement actions.
