Negative G/L Entry in Sales Invoice

Posted on by O3I 86

Hi BC Guru's,

We are running into an issue with Sales Invoice in Business Central.

It looks like whenever we try to create a negative G/L entry in a Sales Invoice we get an error "Quantity must be positive in Service Line Document".

See attached picture below:

Can anyone give us the reason why this works in Sales Orders but not Sales Invoices?

    Hello,

    Not sure about a possible reason why there is a difference but does it reproduce in standard CRONUS company?

    Thanks.

    I have tried in CRONUS company and get the same error. I’m not sure why it won’t allow negative inputs in sales invoices.

    Hello,

    I tried this in a sales invoice within Build 19.1 of Business Central. In this version I can insert sales lines with negative quantity without any problems.

    Which version of BC do you use?

    Regards

    Thomas
