Document Display You can display documents that have already been posted or archived.
In General Ledger Accounting, you can display documents that have already been posted in the entry view or, for a ledger, in the general ledger view:
Entry View
In the entry view, a document contains the document line items originally entered or transferred from the original component.
If you choose document display, the document is first displayed in the entry view.
General Ledger View
In the general ledger view, a document contains the document line items originally entered or transferred from the original component, split line items generated by document splitting , or additionally generated clearing items. Documents in the general ledger view always apply to a specific ledger.

In the general ledger view, the characteristics for General Ledger Accounting (such as Profit Center or Segment) are only displayed if they are contained in the scenarios that are assigned to the ledger.
