Hi Friends
I experimented a bit and found out the actual reason for the system
admitting a reason code for negative reversal despite the fact that the
company code does not permit negative posting.
No matter whether a company code permits negative postings or not, you can
use reason codes 03 and 04 ( meant for negative postings in IDES ) and
reverse a document. All that the reason code does is to ensure how to
present transaction figures. Reason codes for normal reversals enable the
original transaction figure and the related reversal transaction show up on
both sides ( viz. debit / credit ) whereas reversal reason codes for
negative postings cause you to show both transaction figures on the same
side. Whether to show both transaction figures on two sides or one side is
fundamentally determined by the global parameters which enable negative
postings or otherwise for the company code.
In short, you can use any reason code for any reversal. Whether it is shown
as transaction figures on one side or two sides is determined by the fact
whether your company code permits negative postings or not.
Obviously the new understanding solves my problem of a single reason code
being used by two participant company codes in a cross company code
transaction.
Thanks, friends. I thought I could share this finding with you all.

Subject: Cross Company Code Transaction
Hi friends,
I would like to explain the following scenario:
The participant company codes in a cross company code transaction are, let
us say, A and B. While Company Code A permits negative postings, Company
Code B does not do so.
Company Code A transacts with a vendor and makes a transaction wherein it
makes purchases for itself and Company Code B, as well.
When I subsequently reverse the cross company code transaction posted
earlier using reason code 03 (default reason code used for negative
reversal), a reversal does happen in both company codes. The original
invoice document in each company code registers the same reason code 03.
While it is absolutely fine for company code A to carry out a reversal
using default reason code 03, I am puzzled to find that Company Code B
also registers the same reason (though a separate reversal document is
created for company code B) despite the fact that it is not configured to
carry out negative postings.
Does that mean that the reversal reason is common across company codes and
is shared irrespective of whether the second company code does not permit
negative postings? Or am I missing something?
Regards,
VidhyaDhar
Please try it out and share your findings with me.
