    Hi Anetta,

    You need to create a credit note to reverse the posted invoice, then create a new PO with the tax and post the invoice.

    Hi Anetta Amin,

    Is the tax over charged or tax value is incorrect? Did you paid the invoice already or it is not settled yet?  You can just simply create a new PO with credit notes and post it to reverse the invoice and then create a new PO with correct Tax.

    just to help you out on the steps:

    Thank you for your suggestion Matt. We wanted to keep the PO number but don't know how to.

    Hi Junaid,

    We have not settled the invoice. The invoice amount entered is incorrect. I was trying to find a way to reverse the transaction under the same PO.

    Thanks for your help

    Hi Anetta,

    Create the negative line with invert sign in the same PO with all details including tax. Post the invoice.

    Then create the new Line with correct tax code and invoice amount. Post the invoice.

    I believe this will solve your issue and you will be able to keep the same PO number.

    Like this: make sure you select the same original details. When you will post the negative invoice, system will create credit note automatically and reverse Tax and liability impact.

    Hi Anetta,

    As Junaid shared, use negative line to reverse the incorrect invoice, then create the positive line with correct amount and post the invoice.

    Hi Junaid,

    thanks for your help! i'm slightly confused with the screenshot you have provided. is the negative line created on the PO? or do we create a new tax invoice with the negative line?
