Documentation
Definition
This indicator means that the line items are sorted by absolute amount and not according to their +/- sign.
Example
There are four items in an account:
Document 4711 Debit Amount 100 USD
Document 4712 Credit Amount 100 USD
Document 4713 Debit Amount 200 USD
Document 4714 Credit Amount 200 USD
Since credit amounts are displayed with a minus(-) sign, the items are sorted as follows according to their +/- sign:
Document 4714 Credit Amount -200 USD
Document 4712 Credit Amount -100 USD
Document 4711 Debit Amount 100 USD
Document 4713 Debit Amount 200 USD
If, however, sort by absolute amount is active, the items are sorted as follows:
Document 4711 Debit Amount 100 USD
Document 4712 Credit Amount -100 USD
Document 4713 Debit Amount 200 USD
Document 4714 Credit Amount -200 USD
This way it is easier to identify groups of items which belong together and which can be cleared.
