Header

The Header tab of the JV Transaction Type contains many of the common header fields that can be found on the "Header" topic in the Transactions User Guide.

The Header also contains fields unique to the Journal Voucher and some shared by only a few transaction types. Please see individual field descriptions for system controls that can make certain fields required or prohibited.

The ability to select this flag is controlled by a field of the same name on the Transaction Control page. Only budget availability errors and not errors for deactivated budgets or 'budget line not found’ errors are controlled by this flag.
