@Joël: yes - return packing does it, but IMHO the last time the user messed it up somehow, the corresponding invoice hasn't got the right sign. may be they didn't choose "return invoice" but "invoice". Have to check to reproduce.

IMHO it would be desirable to distinguish between return shipments (goods have been moved) and canceled shipments (goods haven't been moved).

@Ana: do not ask why users make errors - they just do ;-) whatever is possible and not forbidden - the software has to handle it correctly.
We have troubles with internal stock locations at customers - we sometimes get "wrong" data reported manually and discover it to late (when the packing is "done").

as Jan put it - correcting it is a nightmare and does probably not conform to accounting principles
