| Account 001 | -100 | |
| Account 002 | -100 |

From UI, the amount are zeroed out for same account, but at backend, they are both in SAME side. (GL001 has 100 debit, and -100 debit).
This means there will be no matching “debit - credit” transactions during the process, which is why they are not picked up.
Currently, the Automation for ledger settlements does not support settlements between Storno reversal transactions that’s why these transactions are not being processed. This is by design and is the reason why these transactions are not being processed.
