Document Parking
Use
You can park data relating to customers, vendors, G/L accounts, and asset accounts. There is an additional fast entry function for G/L accounts. For assets, you can only enter acquisitions. Furthermore, you can park tax information and special sales, but you cannot park special sales for bills of exchange or down payments.
SAP provides two transactions for document parking: the standard transaction and the single screen transaction (Enjoy).
You cannot switch between these two transactions.
Integration
Document parking is linked to the account display function and the reporting function in Financial Accounting.
You have the following options:
● Output of parked documents in the document journal
● Line item display for parked documents
● Valuation and, where appropriate, posting of payables from parked documents as a total (RFPKDB00)
Features
You can also park
cross-company code business transactions. For such transactions, only one
parked document in the initial company code is created. Multiple
documents are then
created when the parked document is posted. You cannot enter a comprehensive
number for cross-company code transactions.
The check run on the data in a parked document only checks whether the data exists.
You can also check the document for completeness. For example, the system checks whether the document balance is zero and whether entries have been made in all required entry fields (such as posting key and account number).
The authorization checks performed for document parking are basically the same as those performed for standard document entry and processing. The assignment of authorizations enables the system to differentiate between users who can only park documents and those who can park and post documents.
No tolerance checks are performed.
The system checks for erroneous entries. For example, you cannot enter an undefined business area.
You can use account assignment models when parking documents, but not reference documents.
Batch input is possible for parked documents.
