Correct Errors

Explanation

Use this activity to correct manual vouchers that have not passed the checks in the updating routine. Any vouchers not passing the checks in updating receive an error status and must be corrected. The error can be either on the entire voucher or on a voucher line.

There are two different ways of correcting the error:

1. Change the basic data, for example the valid date for the code part. Change the voucher status to Approved and save the information. Update the voucher form the hold table to the general ledger.

2. Change the voucher, for example to a code part that is valid. Change the voucher status to Approved and save the information. Update the voucher form the hold table to the general ledger.

Prerequisites

• The voucher must have been marked with an error code by the updating routine. Only manually created voucher rows can be corrected.

System Effects
