Preffered Answer:

SAP provides a way of lessening your day-to-day data entry OPERATIONS by facilitating default entries for fields, and bringing out the most suitable Display Variant for document display, document entry, open/line item processing, etc. The user parameters, also known as ‘Editing Options,’ are a boon as they save time and result in greater accuracy as data entry errors are eliminated with the default VALUES.

You can, among many alternatives, set:

1. The system to default the ‘EXCHANGE rate’ from the first line item.
2. A preference so that the user does not process any ‘special GL transactions’ or ‘foreign currency transactions.’
3. That the document needs to be complete before it is ‘parked.’
4. The system to calculate the tax component on the ‘NET’ invoice and not on the ‘GROSS.’
5. Your document currency either as the ‘local currency’ or as the one used in the last document.
6. The system to make a currency conversion if documents are to be fetched from ‘archives.’
7. Documents to be displayed using a ‘reference number.’
8. ‘Payment reference’ to be used as a selection item in open item processing.
9. To activate branch/head office ‘dialogue’ while processing line items.
