Correcting Errors after Approval

The error correction action allows you to correct documents by creating a new document that reverses the original transaction that has been fully approved. A document created with the error correction action must route and be approved in the same manner as the document it corrects.

Description: exclaim   The error correction action should not be confused with the financial transaction document type General Error Correction (GEC), which is described in General Error Correction .
