Reversing the Rate/Price Valuation (SAP Library

Reversing the Rate/Price Valuation

Use

This function enables you to reverse the following flows from one valuation run:

Security write-ups/write-downs
Foreign exchange write-ups/write-downs
Cost write-downs
Write-downs for foreign exchange costs

Integration

The following reversal functions are included in the securities area. Choose the relevant reversal function according to the flows you want to reverse.

For more information, see Overview: Reversals in Securities.

Prerequisites

There must be no valuation flow in the securities account of the business transaction with a position value date later than the business transaction.

In the securities account of the business transaction there must be no position outflow from a securities account transfer with a position value date later than the business transaction. (Position outflows from sales are permitted!).

Features

All flows that belong to a valuation run make up a business transaction. You can, however, still reverse the valuation for a single ID number without also having to reverse the valuation for all the other ID numbers of the business transaction.

You can only use this function to reverse valuation flows.

Reversal only in TR:

Only use this function if you are required to post a transaction in the securities subledger separately from the posting in the general ledger in Financial Accounting, for example, because the document in FI has already been reversed.
