Fixed Asset Reclass

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 30

I am trying to reclassify an acquisition that was mistakenly added to a fixed asset, and it should have been a new one. This happened on 7/1/21 - I did the reclassify and it created the journal entries in the Fixed Asset G/L Journals, but it's giving an error when trying to post.  It's saying "Accumulated Depreciation must not be positive on 07/01/21 for Fixed Asset No. = COMP2 in Depreciation Book Code = Company.

How do I change the accumulated depreciation so this entry will post?  Or is there something else going on?

Thanks.

    Normally you cannot post positive depreciation entries but Typically in the Reclass Journal it will allow this. Are you sure that you are using the FA Reclass Journal?

    Yes I am using the reclass journal, and it created the entries automatically.

    Is there another way to move that value to a new asset?

    You can cancel the entries and post the new entries to the new asset.
