Restart Depreciation Run

170 Views

Dear All,

Our December depreciation run (ran on 5th January) was unsuccessful and the message returned is to restart depreciation run for November. I did a test run (restart) for November and 5 assets were displayed. One of the assets has its depreciation start date changed to a future date, even though the asset had already gone through 2 previous depreciation runs. For such cases, I was told that a repeat run should be performed. However, the repeat run wasn't performed. We believe it's why the December depreciation run was unsuccessful and a November depreciation run was required.

Now, to restart November's depreciation run, we need to reopen the FI posting period for November. Every time something goes wrong for a depreciation run, we might need to rerun for a previous month. And to rerun a previous month, we have to reopen a FI posting period. Since it's hard to prevent this from happening again, it does not seem to be a good standing solution should the same problem occurs again.

Are there any more elegant alternatives? Any advice? Thanks.

Regards.
