Optional Parameters

PosNeg

Limit results to Positive, Negative, Debit, or Credit only. You may spell out or abbreviate Positive, Negative, Debit, and Credit if you would like to make your formula more readable; the function performs a match on the first character only.

When evaluating numeric formulas such as SUM, Excel treats text as 0. This makes it possible to use this PosNeg parameter to include results of GL formulas in your other Excel formulas only in specific circumstances.

"P" Show balance only if positive, otherwise display: Neg Balance
"N" Show balance only if negative, otherwise display: Pos Balance
"D" Show positive number if debit balance, otherwise display: Credit Balance
"C" Show positive number if credit balance, otherwise display: Debit Balance
