Revert placing assets in service in bulk—Fixed Assets Management

You can use the import service to revert placing multiple assets in service at once.

Reverting place in service does the following:

  • Deletes the asset's depreciation schedules. Only schedules with no posted entries can be deleted.

  • Removes the asset's in-service date.

  • Changes the asset's state to Ready for review.

Before you begin

Verify the following:

  • The asset's state is In service.

  • The asset is active.

  • The asset does not have any posted depreciation, transfers, or partial disposals.

  • The asset was not created from a split.

Step 1. Create a custom list view

  2. Set the filter on the State column to In service.
