  • Basic Jounal Processing in SAP S/4HANA
    •  process of automatically payment : create > post > manage entries for financial transactions
    •  the tool of entering journal enties : fiori apps or sap gui
    •  the entried you can handle using journals: general ledger, account receivable and accounts payable
  • Hold Document
    • temporary financial record that hasn't yet been posted to the ledger
    • allows you to temporarily save the entered data so that you can continue data entry later
    • not assign any document number to the held documents and do not have financial impact
      ( the user making the data entries is prompted to name the document after selecting the hold document function. the user can find the document under this name at a later time
    • a user can complete, post or delete the held documet at a later point in time. however there is a risk of forgetting help documents and not posting them completely
    • processing held document(key actions related to held documents include;)
      • review and approval : they can be reviewed and require approval before posting
      • modification : changes can be made to correct or update the document
      • posting : once approved, the document is posted to update the financial ledger
      • deletion : held documents can be deleted if no longer needed.
  • Park Document ( document parking enables you to enter incomplete documents in the system. with document parking, you do not have to run extensive input check on incomplete documents)
    • Document number assignment is either assigned(internal) or checked(external)
      • the system assign a document number using the document type in the same way as with normal FI posting. you must enter the document number if it has been assigned externally.
    • transaction figures are not updated
      • can be supplemented( no data such as transcation figures can be updated), checked and  posted later on.
    • Not  availavle for evalution or reports / audit trail is available for changes made to parked documents.
      • data from parked documents is available to the system for real-time evaluations.
        (as a result, amounts frm parked documents can be used for the advance return for tax on sales/purchases.)
    • Uses of Document Parking
      • preliminary recording : allows users to save financial entries temporarily for later review and posting
      • review and correction : provides an opportunity to review and correct errors or omission before final postin.
      • approval workflow : supports approval processes by allowing documents to be reviewed and authorized before they are posted, ( dual control and approval prodecures).
      • flexible processing : enables modifications and updates to documents before they are finalized.
    • Delete Parked Documents ( you can delete parked documents that you do not want to post in the system)
      • it is not possible to reuse the document number of the deleted document in such cases. the document has a Z status that is the document was deleted.
      • Parked documents in SAP can be deleted in exceptional cases such as;
      • error correction : to remove documents with incorrect or duplicate entries.
      • process changes : when adjustments to workflow or system upgrades render them obsolete.
      • authorization and control : if created by unauthorized users or due to security issues.
      • deletion requires proper authorization  to ensure it is appropriate and does not disrupt financial records.
