What is the difference between parking and holding of FI documents?

It is common practice for working professionals to confuse parking with holding. Holding is typically used when a business user needs to attend to an urgent task while he/she was in the processing an FI document (e.g. invoice) while parking is a saved document which is also not posted to the General Ledger�but can be� executed by another user. It should be noted that parked documents generate document numbers while held documents do not.
