Hi jock,
‘Mass Change’ enables you to make changes (such as mass retirements, changes to incomplete
assets, etc.) in FI-AA to a large number of asset master records at one time. The mass change
functionality is achieved through work lists, which are FI-AA standard tasks pre-defined in the
system. These tasks are assigned with ‘work flow objects,’ which can be changed according to
your specific requirements. The work lists are created in several ways from asset master records,
asset value displays, from the asset information system, etc.
To make a mass change you need to:
1. Create a substitution rule(s) in which you will mention what fields will be changed. This
rule will consist of an ‘identifying condition’ (for example, if the cost center=1345), and a
‘rule to substitute’ new values (for example, replace the ‘field’ cost center with the ‘value’
‘1000’).
2. Generate a list of assets that need to be changed.
3. Create a ‘work list’ to carry out the changes.
4. Select the appropriate ‘substitution rule’ (defined earlier in step 1 above).
5. Process the ‘work list.’ You may also release it to someone else in the organization so
that he/she can complete the task.
6. Run a ‘report’ to verify the changes.
Thanks,
G Rajendhar.
