Find and Edit or Remove a Voucher

​Introduction

Use the View/Edit Voucher menu to find vouchers that are in process – those that have been saved and are either in Draft status, waiting to be approved, or in Fiscal Coding. If you created a voucher as a Proxy, select the voucher by the name of the traveler.

If you have been assigned more than one role (e.g., you are a fiscal coder and an approver, or a proxy and an approver), you can view another user's voucher in Draft status, but you cannot make changes to it. A proxy can make changes to a voucher that they created, but not one created by the user for whom they are a proxy.

To find vouchers that have been processed, removed, sent to STARS, etc., use the Reports menu or the Processed Documents menu.
