Yes, the accounting date can be in the previous year. Because many 
dependent things of it, always accounting-date=invoice-date
 
because the payment term are base on the invoice date,

The requested-payment-date is only one of the dependencies, the 
invoice-date has.
Making invoices with an invoice date before "today", easily can be managed 
in the system with e.g.:
- initiate a warning on the screen to the user who is doing this
- generate a requested-payment-date of "today"+ e.g. 30 days if the 
invoice-date < "today"
- always give the possibility to the user to change the 
requested-payment-date (e.g. generated as invoice-date + 30 days) to 
another date.
