A reversing entry is a journal entry to "undo" an adjusting entry. When you create a reversing journal entry it nullifies the accounting impact of the original entry. Reversing entries make it easier to record subsequent transactions by eliminating the need for certain compound entries. Reversing entry can be created in two ways. First method is to use the same set of accounts with contra debits and credits, meaning that the accounts and amounts that were debited in the original entry will be credited with the same amount in the reversing journal "nullifying" the accounting impact. The second method is to create a journal with same accounts but with negative amounts that will also nullify the accounting impact of the original transaction
