# Moving Credits and Debits under New Charges in XML

You can choose to set up your system to include debits and credits under New Charges in XML (if you have access to Config Console).

This will ensure that if debits exceed credits, the resulting charge does not show up as past due.

- All adjustments can be grouped as new changes under Financials/New charges/Charge_Adjustment.
- The adjustment total will change the new charges total rather than the balance forward.

**To configure:**

1. Access **Config Console > Local Services > Ratebill > [server] > XML Invoice General Configuration**.
2. Select the check box: ***Move Credit and Debit Adjustment***s ***Under New Charges***.

This configuration works in conjunction with the ***(Separate Charge Adjustments)*** Invoice setting in Config Console, which separates debits and credits.
