Can a fixed asset scrap transaction be reversed?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 55

Hello,

A few fixed assets were scrapped under an incorrect posting profile for their group. The account and offset account in the posting profile were both mapped to the 'gain/loss on disposal' account on P&L, hence the NBV has not been correctly recorded as a loss, resulting to a nil value.

On the FA transactions screen, when trying to reverse the scrapping voucher, an error message pops up: "The transaction for voucher ###### cannot be reversed".

How can this be reversed so it can be scrapped again using the amended posting profile?

Thank you,

Cosmina

    Solution found:

    Although all the posted transactions for scrap share the same voucher, if you try to reverse from any line with transaction type other than 'Disposal - scrap', it will error. It works fine when reversing from 'disposal - scrap'.

    Hi Cosmina,

    Have you tried selecting the scrap voucher at the fixed asset level and tried to reverse it by using the default reversal function?

    Has that worked or did that fail?

    Best regards,

    Ludwig
