Validation rule v6011_h

The validation rule v6011_h checks if the accumulated impairment of loans and advances for non-financial corporations (row 190) is lower than the sum of accumulated impairments of small and medium-sized enterprises (row 200), belonging to non-financial corporations. In most cases the accumulated impairment is negative. e.g.: Impairment = - 40 r190 (Loans and advances NFC) = -40 r200 (of which: SME) = 0 In this case c190 < c200 and the validation rule is not violated. The question is, how should we deal with positive accumulated impairment due to POCI deals? e.g.: Impairment = + 40 r190 (Loans and advances NFC) = +40 r200 (of which: SME) = 0 In this case c190 > c200 and the validation rule is violated, although positive impairment is generally allowed.
