Posting a reversal with a different posting date
An OPplus enhancement has been integrated into the standard functionality of the transaction reversal. The actions on the page:
- Reverse transaction with different posting date
- Reverse transaction and print with different posting date
These actions are automatically available if you have set up OPplus payment import.
With this functionality you can enter a different posting date for a reversal. The system will check if the reversal date is in the same fiscal year. If the fiscal year is already closed, the reversal posting will be marked as a subsequent posting.
Application example
Financial accounting setup postings allowed as of 01.12.2021.
A booking from 31.03.2021 is canceled.
Without a different posting date, the user will receive the following error message:
If a different posting date is entered in the new functionality, the posting can be reversed without changing the values in Financial accounting setup.
To reverse the posting with a different posting date:
Select an item and click Reverse transaction.
Select one of the new actions.
Enter a different cancellation date and click OK.
The General Ledger Entries for the document number after the reversal posting are as follows:
