Hi,

The negative posting also posts the incorrect debit as a credit and the incorrect credit as a debit. This time the posted amount is not added to the transaction figures, but is subtracted from the transaction figures of the other side of the account. This sets the transaction figures back to as they were before the incorrect

posting took place.

Normally the system uses the normal reversal posting to reverse documents. The following prerequisites must be fulfilled to enable negative postings:

1. The company code permits negative postings

2. The reversal reason must be defined for negative reversal.

Negative postings can also be used to perform transfer postings of incorrect line items. The item is removed from the wrong account by a negative posting (resetting the transaction figures) and posted to the correct account by a normal posting. This can only be done with a document type that explicitly allows negative postings.

Regards,
