Hi,

YES

It is bcoz of + in feild.

Use

The system uses this indicator to determine how the quantity in the source document is affected. For example, if you

Create a quotation item for 100 pieces,

Copy the quotation into a sales order, and

Create a sales order item for 80 pieces,

the copying has a positive effect on the quotation. In effect, you have added 80 pieces to the quotation quantity that is now considered complete. 20 pieces in the quotation remain to be completed.

If you do not make an entry in this field, or set indicator 0, the source document is not blocked, which allows you to create several target documents at once (for example, when using EDI and frequent contract releases).

While the source document (such as quotation or quantity contract) is being processed, it is blocked. For instance, if you are working on a quantity contract, no one can create a release order for that contract).

The positive,negative sign in VTLA controls the value or quantity to be affected in source doc. and updated in target doc. in the target document i.e. in this case from sales order to delivery document.

From sales order to Delivery doc----

---

>Positive

From Delivery doc. to invoice----

---

>Positive

From Delivery doc to return order -

---

> Negative

Hope it helps you.
