Hello

- Normal reversal is reversing a normal posted document. Choose reason code and enter the document number or date. A new document number is created. It would reverse CO postings also, if not settled.

-Negative Postings:Reverse and adjustment postings can also be marked as negative postings. Negative postings are used to reduce the transaction figures in G/L, customer, and vendor accounts. This allows you to give the transaction figures (following the reversal) the status they would have had without posting the reversed document and its reversal document. This type of reversal is called a negative posting.

- Reversal of reversal documents. This is a case, when you have posted a document, reversed it and realise, you made a mistake. you can reverse this document also.

- Mass reversal: Function to reverse or invert many documents, which have been posted either manually or automatically

The system features two modes for reversing documents:

· Reversal

· Inversion

Reversal mode reverses already-posted documents by posting a second document, which posts the same set of characteristics but with reversed debit/credit signs. The reversal does not produce a remaining net difference.

The reversal document posts in the same period in which the reversed document was posted.

Neither the reversed document nor the reversal document can be reversed themselves.

Inversion mode reverses postings that were made in earlier posting periods. Thus, an inversion is not a true reversal because a net difference remains in the original period (of the inverted document):

It is still possible to reverse a document that has been inverted. When an inverted document is reversed, the inverting document is also reversed with the result that a remaining net difference no longer exists in both the period of the inverted document and the period of the inverting document.

Hi,

I would like to one more thing. Will it be possible to reverse a document which is posted automatically may be via Idoc?

Hi,

If the document source is from SD / MM module - involving an Idoc, it can be reversed from the source document.

But, if a Vendor Invoice is posted from FI Module using Idoc, it can be reversed directly in FI module.

Thanks

Hi Murali,

But if the Idoc is from a legacy system and is related to Production order confirmation how can I reverse the same?

Hello

Normally most of the documents posted in different modules can be reversed.

If you have successfully posted posting documents and realize that the posted data is incorrect, you can reverse all documents.

The documents should have been transferred and posted.

Accounting has approved the reversal.

The system should not have used any line items from the documents created in Accounting for clearing.

It must be possible to post the reversal documents (for example, the relevant CO account assignments should not yet be closed).

Choose Edit ® Reverse ® Reverse documents.

A dialog box appears, in which you must enter information on the reversal date:

Choose Yes, to copy the respective posting date of the original documents as the reversal date. A posting run can contain posting documents with different posting dates.

Choose No, to enter a different reversal date. If you enter a different posting date, it must be after the posting date for the original documents.

Result if Successful

Reversal documents are created containing all document line items for the original documents with reversed plus/minus (+/-) signs.

The reversal documents were transferred to Accounting and posted there. This cancels the original, incorrect posting.

The selection of accompanying payroll results was reset.

Links to the reversed posting documents were inserted in the reversal documents. You can see this by showing the Reversal documents column in the document overview.

Some times reversal posting results in error. This could be due to various reasons, like non definition of reason codes.
