Use this function to launch an automatic reversal processing on a set of journals selected by the user depending on a number of criteria.

Use this function, especially at the beginning of the fiscal year, to globally reverse all the stock count MO of the previous fiscal year.

All journals, either simulation or actual journals, can be reversed. The "Reversal" field in the journal entry function only needs to be set to "Yes", and a reversal date, added.
SEEREFERTTO See the documentation on journal entry for further information.

For each reversal, a journal will be generated. The journal thus dealt with will have their "Reversal" fields set to the "Reversed" value.
SEEINFO When a journal is processed, all the ledgers containing this journal will be impacted.

When the Fixed assets are managed, the journal reversal will result in the Expenses automatic generation, provided that the required setup is implemented (see the Journal entrydocumentation for further information). The list of expenses then created is included in the log file generated at the end of the reversal processing.

Selection criteria

The selection of journals to be reversed is made according to several criteria:

  • Company,
  • Site,
  • Document type,
  • Journal type,
  • Journal,
  • User.

These criteria can be used to restrict the selection of journals to be reversed. It is not however mandatory to enter all these fields. By default, the system selects all the journals having the "Yes" status.

Date ranges are used to refine the selection. The reversal date specified on journal entry is the date that is taken into account. Note that the operation will only be valid if the relevant fiscal year and accounting period are open.

Generation

The accounting journal type generated during this processing is the same as the type of the original journal.

At processing level itself, it is possible to select the reversal method to use:

  • Based on the journal sign: the journal is generated by debiting the credited accounts in the original journal and by crediting the debited accounts in the original journal
  • Based on the amount: The allocation sign of the original journal is kept but the amounts are recorded with a negative sign.

The "Log file" flag can be selected to display a summary of all the generated journals at the end of the processing.
