Understanding Voucher Types

The system uses the document type of transactions to determine the transactions to include in the purchase registers. To include the correct transactions in the purchase registers, you should set up document types in the Document Type (00/DT) UDC table for these types of transactions:

• Purchases.

• Purchase corrections.

• Customs documents.

• Employee expenses.

• Employee expense corrections.

• Vouchers for which VAT is deferred to a different accounting period.

  You can change the tax liability date only for vouchers for which the document type is set up as a voucher that allows changes to the tax liability date.

After you create the document types, you use the Set Up AP Document Types program (P74P4010) to associate additional information to the UDC values that represent the vouchers that you pay.

Note: When you set up voucher types for domestic purchase corrections and domestic purchase of fixed assets corrections, you must specify that the entry of the original document type, original document number, and the original invoice date is required. This information is required in the VAT Domestic Register report.
