Voucher number taken - ni lines - how update GL?

Hi,

you cannot delete the voucher or post it with no lines.

As a minimum you can use a statistic account and create a lines with zero amounts but with a quantity on it.

Or you use the voucher for another posting.

Ok thanks for reply

I tried closing a period with just a voucher header without any lines. Validation during close will prevent closing the period so you will have to get voucher updated to be able to close period

So creating lines with zero amount or on statiscal accounts as you suggest will work but it is not a nice solution, just a work around

Would be better to allow setting voucher header in status Cancel without any lines

Thanks again

Hi Per,

keeping the voucher just in the hold table and not being booked in the GL contradicts the basics in booking as e.g. vouchers must be numbered in a unbroken sequence.
Assuming we are talking about a manual voucher - what is holding you back using this voucher number for a different posting? As long as you are not using voucher numbers per period or you are in between two years, you should be able change the voucher date. This change of the voucher date into the future or actual period will also allow you to close the period.
