Creating a Reversal

To completely reverse an application:

  1. Create a Reversal Application:
    • On AIA Style Billing, click New to create a new application; however, type the same Application No.
    • Type a revision number or letters in the field beside the Application No field.
  1. Negative Values:
    • Type negative values in Column E for the reversal.
    • These offset the original application amounts.
    • Net effect is to zero out the original application.
    • After finalizing the reversal, there is a message that the credit (and credit number) was created successfully and the application finalized.
  1. AR Credit Memo:
    • The reversal generates an AR credit memo.
    • The credit reduces the customer’s balance.
    • Original invoice and credit both remain in AR history.
  1. Resubmit Corrected Application:
    • After reversal, you can create a new application with correct values.
    • This becomes the next sequential application number.
