I don't have the reference, but he was signed on July 9th. It wasn't announced until then (24th).
The only place I've found that references the 9th is a forum post with no source. I thought they waited to sign so they had money for Nick Young who I believe signed on the 9th iirc
I've found multiple sources like this and granted the key word is announced but still can't find any link that states he was signed on the 9th of July:

PHILADELPHIA, PA. – JULY 24, 2012 – The Philadelphia 76ers announced today that they have signed rookies Maurice Harkless and Arnett Moultrie. Harkless was the 15th overall pick in the 2012 NBA draft by Philadelphia while Moultrie was the 27th overall pick by Miami. The Sixers acquired the rights to Moultrie from the HEAT in exchange for the draft rights to Justin Hamilton (45th overall pick) and a protected future first round pick.
