Documentation
Definition
Indicates that individual line items can be marked as negative postings.
Use
Once you post a document in Financial Accounting, the system updates the transaction figures. If this indicator is set, you can use this document type to reverse incorrect postings item-by-item by making negative postings and thus eliminate their effect on transaction figures.
If one of the line items in a document is posted to the wrong account, for example, you can enter an adjustment document to remove the item from the wrong account with a negative posting and post it to the correct account with a normal posting.
Dependencies
The company code in the document you are reversing must allow negative postings. If you are using a document type for a company code that does not allow negative postings, the system ignores this setting here.
