Wow Chris! We've never seen that in our 405CD environment but it's good to
note! Thanks!

Well, this is interesting...

Yesterday, we had a batch of 56 invoices come out with negative numbers.

The numbers run from -938339 to -938394.  The batch ahead ended in 938338,
and
the batch after began with 938395.

In reviewing BIL501, we discovered that if a field in the LDA referred to as
XEDIT is
set to a value of 1, BIL501 multiplies BINVN by -1, and writes that number
back out
to BIL.

Has anybody ever experienced this?  Why on earth would one reverse the sign
on an
invoice number?  What does it signify?

TIA,

--Chris
