I have run into this same thing when transferring funds from one
institution to another.  I have settled on the practice of using the date
when it shows up at the "TO" institution rather than the "FROM" of the
previous one; and I usually enter it when the "FROM" initiates the
transfer... so there is a future transaction when I enter it to know that
it is "in transit"
