Journal Voucher Master (JVM)

The Journal Voucher Master (JVM) document is used for all other types of Journal Voucher transactions that are not performed on a Journal Voucher Correction (JVC) or Journal Voucher Transfer (JVT). The Journal Voucher Master (JVM) is a generalized document that can record certain accounting transactions that cannot be recorded using any other financial system document.

Generally you should not use this document to record corrections to other documents. You should make corrections of this type by modifying the original document or by processing a JVC.
