Title: Parked Invoice Document

 When an Invoice is received from a vendor then Logistics Invoice Verification (LIV) is
done to cross verify the PO & Invoice amount.
 Invoice document is posted & Finance Team clears the vendor payment as per the
terms mentioned in PO.

 What is the use of Park Invoice Document?

It can be used for two purpose as stated below:
1. Once the Invoice is created then instead of posting, it is parked & higher manager will
verify & post the invoice to avoid any errors.
2. While creating invoice document it is observed that some additional amount is charged
in the invoice sent by vendor which is not mentioned in PO so you parked the invoice
document. After receiving the appropriate information about charges from vendor the
invoice document is posted successfully.
