Reversing a Balance Sheet Transfer 

Use

For more information, see Overview: Reversals in Securities.

• Make sure no flows have been posted in the relevant securities accounts after the key date of the balance sheet transfer you want to reverse. If flows have been posted, reverse them before reversing the balance sheet transfer. Post them again afterwards. An error message lists the flows you have to reverse.
• Flows generated by the period-end closing must not exist after the key date of the balance sheet transfer in securities accounts that are valued with the securities accounts affected by the balance sheet transfer (valuation category 20 or portfolio valuation). If flows do exist after the key date, they are listed in an error message.

1. Enter the Company code, ID number and Securities account of the balance sheet transfer you want to reverse.



If the balance sheet transfer has affected several securities account positions, enter any of these securities accounts.

The system determines the balance sheet transfer that was last executed in this securities account and displays all the flows that belong to this balance sheet transfer. If the balance sheet transfer involved several securities accounts, the system displays all the flows in those securities accounts.

2. You can enter a posting date and a reversal reason.
3. Choose an FI reversal reason. This determines how the reversal is performed in FI.
4. Use the Reverse function to reverse all the flows in the balance sheet transfer. This also enters the original account assignment reference again in the affected position indicator.
