Revert full disposals in bulk—Fixed Assets Management

You can use the import service to revert multiple full asset disposals at once.

Reverting a full disposal does the following:

  • Deletes the related full disposal journal entries.

  • Removes the full disposal record from the asset's Disposals tab and each depreciation schedule.

  • Changes the state of Canceled depreciation entries to Not posted.

  • Changes the asset's state to In service.

Before you begin

Verify the following:

  • The disposal date is in an open period. If it's in a closed period, you must manually reverse the journal entries and recreate the asset as a historical asset. Contact your account manager for further assistance.

  • The asset is in the Disposed state.

  • The asset is active.

Step 1. Create a custom list view
