Cancel FA Ledger Entries Batch Job

Removes fixed asset ledger entries from the FA Ledger Entries window. If you posted erroneous transactions to fixed assets, you can use this batch job to cancel the fixed asset ledger entries. The FA Posting Date is used to perform many calculations in the Fixed Assets application area. Erroneous fixed asset ledger entries must therefore be removed from the FA Ledger Entries window.

If you need to cancel entries for various fixed assets, you can access the batch job from the Depreciation Book Card window.

If you only need to cancel entries for an individual fixed asset, you can use this function directly from the FA Ledger Entries window for that particular fixed asset.

The batch job transfers the fixed asset ledger entries that you want to cancel to a journal. If the fixed assets included in the batch job are integrated with the general ledger, the entries are transferred to the fixed asset general ledger journal. Otherwise, the batch job transfers the entries to the fixed asset journal. You can then post the journal or adjust the entries before posting, if necessary. The fixed asset ledger entries are then removed from the FA Ledger Entries window and are posted to the FA Error Ledger Entries window.

Canceling erroneous fixed asset ledger entries makes statistics windows and reports show accurate amounts for fixed assets.
