    Best way to do is, make Debit Amount & Amount field editable FALSE. Let user enter the value in Credit Amount only.

    This way, it should meet your requirement without major changes in the system.

    You can write the following code on newly created form....

    Amount - OnValidate()

     IF (Amount <> 0) THEN

       IF (Amount > 0) THEN

         Error('Only Negative Value allowed');

    Hope this helps.

    Hi, I guess your query is not in line with the general rules of entering transactions in NAV. The standard rules of NAV for positive and negative amount depends on the Document Type selected in the journal lines. I suggest you re-look into the requirements and align your solution accordingly.

    If you want always revert positive numbers when users add them, you can enhance the code to something like:

    Amount - OnValidate()

    IF (Amount <> 0) THEN

    Amount := -ABS(Amount);
