A voucher in accounting is essentially a document that serves as proof of a transaction, it can be a receipt, an invoice, or any other document that verifies the details of a business deal. Businesses use vouchers to record and track their daily transactions, they are usually prepared when a payment is made or received, and they contain information such as the date, amount, and purpose of the transaction. Vouchers help companies keep their financial records organized and accurate, making it easier to prepare financial statements and balance sheets, and they also provide a paper trail for auditing purposes, which helps to prevent errors or fraud.
