• SAP Tcode: TOAVE - Global document types

  
  Overview:
  The SAP transaction code TOAVE is used to maintain global document types in the SAP system. It is used to define the characteristics of documents that are used in various business processes. This includes the document type, number range, and other related settings. 
  
  Functionality: 
  The TOAVE transaction code allows users to define global document types in the SAP system. This includes setting up the document type, number range, and other related settings. The document type is used to identify documents in various business processes, such as sales orders, purchase orders, and invoices. The number range is used to assign a unique number to each document. Other settings include the document category, which determines how the document is processed, and the posting period, which determines when the document can be posted. 
  
  Step-by-step How to Use: 
  1. Enter the TOAVE transaction code in the command field. 
  2. Select “Create” from the menu bar. 
  3. Enter a name for the new document type and select “Global” from the drop-down list. 
  4. Enter a number range for the new document type and select “External” from the drop-down list. 
  5. Select a document category from the drop-down list and enter a posting period if necessary. 
  6. Click “Save” to save your changes. 
  7. Click “Activate” to activate the new document type in the system. 
  
  Other Recommendations: 
  It is important to note that once a global document type has been created, it cannot be changed or deleted without first deactivating it in the system. Additionally, it is recommended that users test their changes before activating them in order to ensure that they are working correctly.
