We recently sold a fixed asset through a free text invoice. Everything was fine, until we noticed that the invoice was entered with the wrong information (wrong date and amount). So, we have to issue a credit note to the customer and create a new correct invoice.
We tried creating a credit note by essentially copying all data from the original FTI, and entering a negative amount. However, after this was posted, GL transactions coming in from the Fixed asset module were incorrect. More precisely, we have these numbers in the FA subledger, where it's visible that the original invoice and the credit note have opposite signs, as expected:
However, when we check the voucher transactions for these documents, the amounts hitting the acquisition account, and the accumulated depreciation account, are exactly the same, when we were expecting opposite signs:
All other transaction types (profit/loss, net book value, disposal - sale) are behaving as expected.
I've noticed the same behaviour in the Contoso environment. Is this a bug or are we doing something wrong? How is a return of a sold fixed asset supposed to be handled? Thank you.
