Documentation

Definition

The document type defines the origin of the document. The following values are available:

Document type A

Applications that use the FI-SL structures, but work independently (profit center, reconciliation ledger,....), may also assign document number of their own and must therefore be given their own document type - A. As with document type S, the reference document type is usually W or K.

Document type B

Documents from FI-GL. MM and SD documents are posted indirectly in the FI Special Purpose Ledger via the FI general ledger and thus have document type B as well.
Beginning with Release 3.0, these documents are transferred to the Special Purpose Ledger using the accounting structure and thus have document type S or W.

Document type K

Documents from CO.

Document type G

Documents in the Special Purpose Ledger for global postings

Document type T

Reversal documents for G (with the same document number)

Document type L

Documents of the Special Purpose Ledger for global postings

Document type U

Reversal documents for L (with the same document number)

Document type S

Documents which are assigned a document number by FI-SL during the update. This is the case, for example, for billing interface or CO documents without their own line items. Beginning with Release 3.0, its own document number is assigned, so that the original document type is S and the reference document type W or K.

Document type J

Joint venture documents

Document type R

Documents created by a rollup.

Document type W

Beginning with Release 3.0, documents that are sent to FI-SL using the accounting document have document type W. This includes all documents from SD, MM, or FI.
Document type W can normally be found by the reference document type, since FI-SL assigns its own document number with document type S.

Document type *

With a * entry for the document type, all documents are displayed independent of document type.
