Just thought I would share with you why you would not want to reverse the Debit/Credit fields. Your thinking of it wrong in how it actually works. The accounting in SambaPOS uses transactions and documents to move money around. Credit and Debit is there to tell the Transactions and Documents where to get from and where to put money.

The Credit and Debit is for the Transaction Types and Documents to work. Its not a direct money relationship. This allows the accounts screen to be very flexible. You can use it for other purposes besides just tracking money from customers.

Example: The reason Cash line shows as a Debit after a sale is because the document that was created from the transaction type Debited the money from Receivables.

This is what caused your double transaction you were trying to rework the logic behind it… You cannot do that for it to work with the transactions/documents system.
