Dealing with Documents in the REGISTER Period

If a document has been rejected by an approver it remains in the Register period. The document will need to be moved out of the Register period and cancelled.

If a document needs to be re-approved, you must re-enter it after the original document has been cancelled.

Do not copy any documents in the Register period as this can lead to issues with documents being posted to the incorrect VAT nominals.
