Negative invoice

nromain

Hello,

i know that in Nav, we cannot post an invoice which have a negative global amount. This is called a credit memo and i really think it's logical. But let's imagine that i have to do such a thing for an obscur reason and so i deactivate the control. What's the risk? What will happen? I try to find a good reason to not do that, it seems that the "logical reason" is not enough.

Thank you

The main problem that I see you will face is reporting. Also, NAV application entries does not take kindly to document types that are suppose to be of a sign.

Thank you for your reply.

Ok for the reporting issue but for the nav application entry, nav already accept to post negative quantity for a invoice (and so negative amount line). The restriction concerns the global amount of the invoice which has to be positive. You can have a negative line and a positive line in the invoice and post them without trouble if the global amount is positive. So maybe it's an financial restriction?

Get a cronus database make the change then try posting and paying, part payments, reporting etc.

You will eventually see that Alex is right.
