Symptoms

When posting a non merchandise invoice, ReIM is creating an extra posting with account code VCT for an invoice that has no differences in header and detail.
This is creating not only the extra (and wrong VCT record) but also ends up changing the value of the detail line to support the difference created on the extra line.

Steps to reproduce:
Pre requisites:
  - IM_SYSTEM_OPTIONS.POST_ON_DOC_HEADER = 'Y'
  - IM_CURRENCIES for 'USD' should have currency_cost_dec = 2

1. Create non merchandise invoice with total amount of 922.185 for currency USD
2. Non merchandise invoice should have one detail line for the amount 922.185
3. Add a 0% tax line for the non merchandise invoice
4. Run ReIM posting

Expected result:
One header line for 922.19
One detail NMRCH line for 922.19
One detail Tax Line for 0

Actual result:
One header line for 922.19
One detail NMRCH line for 922.20
One detail VCT line for -0.01
One detail Tax Line for 0

This is wrong and changes the amounts being posted to Oracle financials.
