Please check the below coding.

IF wa_t_history-db_cr_ind EQ 'H'.

> wa_t_history-val_loccur = wa_t_history-val_loccur * - 1.

wa_t_history-val_forcur = wa_t_history-val_forcur * - 1.

wa_t_history-quantity = wa_t_history-quantity * - 1.

ENDIF.

wa_t_history-val_loccur = wa_t_history-val_loccur * - 1.

Note that its a currency field..and its being multiplied by -1.

That could be the local currency has been debited in FI terms.

When

wa_t_history-db_cr_ind = 'H'.

then

Multiply all the below three variable with -1.

wa_t_history-val_loccur

wa_t_history-val_forcur

wa_t_history-quantity

example if wa_t_history-val_loccur = 10 before

after execution it will be -10 (minus 10)
