Overview

Automatically sorts ledger transaction lines in a specific order before they are sent to the accounting system. Ensures debit and credit entries follow accounting best practices.

When This Action Runs

  • Trigger: Automatic during PreSendRequest event
  • Target: Documents with ledger transactions (LedgerTransReq)
  • Purpose: Organize transaction lines in logical sequence
  • Timing: Before ledger transaction processing

How It Works

Sorting Logic

Lines are sorted based on net amount (Credit - Debit):

  • Negative amounts first: Debit > Credit (debit entries)
  • Positive amounts last: Credit > Debit (credit entries)
  • Grouping: All debits grouped together, all credits grouped together

Sorting Calculation

Net Amount = Credit Local Amount - Debit Local Amount

Negative net (debits) → Appear first
Positive net (credits) → Appear last
Same sign → Order preserved
