Invoice Reversal Link Check

Link invoice reversals to the original document without deleting the audit trail or double-counting movements. The download provides a specific review process. It does not make decisions or act in an account.

What to provide

Approved invoice and credit/reversal exports, IDs, posting dates, currency and closed-period rules.

How it works

1. Match explicit reversal-to-original references. An opposite amount alone is not sufficient.
2. Calculate net movement per matched chain, preserving every source document and date.
3. Hold missing links, partial reversals and cross-period effects for the owner. Do not backdate.
4. Return a chain register and unresolved balances, not cancellation or ledger edits.

The output

original ID | reversal ID | amount/currency | date/period | linkage evidence | net | unresolved

Worked fictional example

Fictional invoice 100 and referenced credit -100 net 0 but both remain visible. Credit -30 without original ID stays unmatched, not assigned by amount.

Checks and limits

Preserve source versions and original values. Unknowns stay unknown. Use a qualified reviewer for regulated, legal or hiring decisions. No send, share, account change, schedule, ledger update or payment is authorized. No live account test is claimed.
