Cancel FA Entries Batch Job

Removes one or more fixed asset ledger entries from the FA Ledger Entries window. If you posted erroneous transactions to one or more fixed assets, you can use this function to cancel the fixed asset ledger entries. In the FA Ledger Entries window, select the entry or entries that you want to cancel. On the Actions tab, in the Functions group, choose Cancel Entries.

The program uses the FA Posting Date 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 this function in the form of a batch job from the Depreciation Book table. On the Actions tab, in the Functions group, choose Cancel FA Ledger Entries. In the batch job request window that appears, you can specify the conditions to be used in the batch job.

The function copies the fixed asset ledger entries that you want to cancel to a journal. If the fixed assets are integrated with the general ledger, the entries are transferred to the fixed asset general ledger journal. Otherwise, the entries are transferred 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.

When you cancel erroneous fixed asset ledger entries, statistics windows and reports will show accurate amounts for fixed assets.
