# Reverse Gl Journal Entry

`POST /companies/{company_id}/gl/journal-entries/{entry_id}/reverse`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://app.zeno-works.ch` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://app.zeno-works.ch/companies/{company_id}/gl/journal-entries/{entry_id}/reverse`
- Auth: none declared

**Storno** a posted journal entry: post its mirror image (accountant role).

Nothing is deleted; the original stays, linked both ways, and the **reversal** entry
is returned. The only VAT-correct storno door — VAT postings, open items and what
the document spawned are all unwound.

``body.posting_date`` dates the reversal and decides its period; omitted, it reuses
the original's date and period.

Refusals, in evaluation order — **409** when: the entry is itself a reversal (post a
new correcting entry instead); the reversal date falls in a ``filed``/``paid`` VAT
period (date it into an open one); an open item still carries a live settlement
(unlink or reverse the payment first); or — only with ``posting_date`` — its period
is closed, its fiscal year sealed, or no fiscal year covers it.
