Hi,

The amount signs shows negative for invoices , positive for payments , cash discounts ... in AP module. My client would like to see them the opposite was like positive for invoices, negative for payments and cash discounts. 

Any idea?

Thanks

Sam

    Hi Sam,

    What exact forms/reports are you talking about? A creditor invoice is posted credit on the vendor balance account. This is standard accounting. Possibly you need to define some (Management Reporter) reports where you can show the opposite. Otherwise elaborate on your question.

    Can you refer the screen where you are seeing this behavior? Also, it's pertinent to mention that AP invoices are posted as Credit (Negative) balance and the payments are posted as Debit (Positive) balance on the Vendor.

    Hi Sam,

    Please follow Andres suggestion and fix this on the report level. Everything else (i.e. modifying something) might quickly end up in mess.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    My question was across all forms and reports in AP. I understand that the Credit amount is saved as negative in the database in AX, however finance people (based on what I have experienced) usually they like to see a positive amount as amount due to the vendor in AP module ( Which is credit amount).

    I just wanted to check if there is any setup for that, however it looks there is no option.

    Thank you for your answers!
