The date constraint exists because of how the contribution type is set up.
If the 'Dates must match week start and ends?' box is checked, the contribution on the FAR screen will follow the system’s start-of-week day, usually a Monday. See the configuration example below.
In contrast, the Residential setup doesn’t have this box checked, as shown in the screenshot below.
This is the intended design, so you'll need to test changes to your configuration to see if you're getting the date results you expect.
If you'd like support with this, we can arrange a chargeable consultancy at your request, please raise a new case.
