Parking Earmarked Funds

Use

In practice, it is often the case that you are interrupted while entering a document or you do not know all the data required for completing a document, such as the precise amount or the relevant cost center.

In these cases, you can use the Park function to save the data you have entered and then continue entering the document later. If you park a document in this way, it must not be complete. No check is made on the saved data.

Information on budget increases is only saved when you post a document.
