Definitions of terms

Voucher documents
A voucher document or report document is generated when a report is output to an output device such as a printer or to a file. The report document contains a list of objects, e.g., a list of addresses. A voucher document always concerns one object — a sales order, for example. The documents may be archived or forwarded to a partner, for example, as a fax or by e-mail.

Vouchers
A voucher documents a business event. Orders are a subset of vouchers; sales orders and purchase orders are examples of vouchers. A voucher document is generated when a voucher is output.

Reports
Reports are used to output data via the ERP System Output Manager (SOM) or Crystal Reports. Reports are distinguished for output in voucher documents and report documents. Reports for voucher documents are based on the data of an individual voucher. For example, a report for the voucher document order confirmation is based on the data of the sales order voucher. Reports for report documents can be based on various data that are determined by using search features. In the report documents, data are often presented as a list, e.g., an address list.
Reports contain one or more report files, which define the parameters, the number of fields, and the look of a report. They can be created as system object or development object.

Report file
The appearance of a report document is established with a report file. The report files are edited in Crystal Reports. Report files can be language-dependent or language-independent.
