SAP ZJV Journals

Following on from a 'there has to be a better way of doing this....' discussion, I tracked down someone who could explain about ZJV journals.

SAP (as set up with current client in any case) has 3 main journal methods:

Manual
Best for short jounals

Complex posting Fast Entry jounals
Quicker than manual entry but data has to be pasted in a column at a time (max 20 rows per page) or put through a converter before pasting.

ZJV journals
With these, the data goes straight into a converter spreadsheet, a macro converts it to the correct format and the result is saved as a txt file.  This file is then sucked in by SAP.  Job done.  I fiddle for short journals but a step forward for long journals.
