Ever wanted to post a negative sales invoice in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, and did you succeed? Or did you end up creating multiple documents to handle the business process? Did your customer prefer having these multiple documents issued, or did you have to call them and explain why?

When handling sales transactions in Dynamics 365 Business Central, managing returns, exchanges, or even purchasing items from customers can become cumbersome. Traditional methods require creating both a credit memo and a new sales invoice to handle such a business process, leading to unnecessary steps and potential errors which in turn causes your employees stress and your business to be less efficient. Imagine all those situations where a customer exchanges a product for a less expensive one—traditionally, you’d need to issue a credit memo for the return and then create a new sales invoice for the exchanged item. Don't forget about explaining to your customers why you had to issue them 2 to 3 documents for what seemed like an easy transaction.

Increase flexibility

With Negative Sales however, you handle such transactions with a single negative sales invoice, saving time and reducing complexity. Additionally, Negative Sales empowers your business to easily purchase items from customers without needing manual posting of entries via journals. This functionality opens up new opportunities for trade-ins or buy-back programs, all within your familiar Business Central environment. Business processes where you have to pay your customer now become a breeze to handle in the system.

Highly configurable

On top of that, Negative Sales allows you to define conditions that have to be met to allow posting negative sales invoices, and helps you by logging who posted negative sales invoices and when they did so.
