What does document header controls?

Answer Posted / mk

Document Header controls the following
1. Document Header has the Company code and so, it
determines the Chart of accouts that will be used and so in
docuemnt lines, one can successfully enter only those
accounts that are valid in that company code's COA
2. Document header has Document type and for documents that
are assigned a number internally, this also determines the
document number. Document type also presets the first
posting key in the lines.
3. Document Header has the currency code and the exchange
rate, if the docuemnt currency is different from the local
currency. Thus, document header controls the local currency
amounts that will be posted to GL
4. Document Header has the posting date and the posting
period. This controls the period in which the docuemnt will
post to GL.
