Displaying a Parked JV

The Display Parked JV function lets you access your parked journal vouchers on the Get a Parked Journal Voucher screen. You can then review it on the Display Parked Journal Voucher screen. A parked journal voucher is one that has been saved to be completed in the future. Posted journal vouchers are completed transactions. If you want to review more than one parked journal voucher or posted (completed) JVs, use the JV Report. For more information, see the help topic: JV Report.

Get the Journal Voucher

If you know the SAP document number of the journal voucher, see the help topic: Getting a Parked JV. Otherwise, you can search for the journal voucher. See the help topic: Searching for a Parked JV.
