Reversal of Posting Documents

Use

If you have successfully posted posting documents and realize that the posted data is incorrect, you can reverse all documents for the posting run in question. You cannot reverse individual posting documents for a posting run. The system uses the same posting run to administer posting documents and reversal documents.

Reversal of Posting Documents

The graphic shows the relationship between posting documents from Human Resources (HR) and the documents from Accounting after a reversal.

The Accounting components use the posting documents as original documents. The Accounting components have created their own documents based on these original documents.

To reverse these accounting documents you must first of all create reversal documents in Human Resources that then serve as original documents for the reversal documents from Accounting.

After a reversal, there is a relevant reversal document for each posting document and each accounting document. The reversal documents contain all the document line items from the documents to be reversed with a reversed sign.

Note Note

The reversal documents from Human Resources contain a link to the accompanying posting documents. However, the reversal documents from Accounting do not contain a link to the accompanying accounting documents.

End of the note.
