Taking over, uploading, and implementing FA into BC. trying to clean up the module before working on it. existing deprecations were canceled successfully

while trying to clear out acquisition cost by uploading a negative number I got the below error, any advice would be great.

FA Error Entry No. = 2 does not match the journal line for Fixed Asset No. = FA0014 in Depreciation Book Code = COM.

I recommend using the "Cancel Entries" function for fixed asset entries instead of creating reversal entries manually. This is because some functionalities within the module rely on existing entries, which is why the "Cancel Entries" feature was implemented.
