Procedure
Use the following procedure to set options for the change in acquisition
value.
- Open the
Change Object Value window and query for the
object(s) for which you want to change the acquisition value.
- Select the record(s) that you queried for, right-click and click
Change Acquisition Value.
- Enter appropriate value in the Voucher Date, User Group
and Voucher Type fields. The default values are displayed.
- The Recalculate value gives an opportunity to insert a default value for
selected object/objects. This could be done by percentage or amount. Select
Percent or Amount as base for recalculation of acquisition value.
- Use the List of Values to enter a
value in the Acquisition Reason field.
- For default values enter a quantity in Value. If
Percentage is selected, this field holds the percentage, and if Amount is selected the field
holds the amount. For percentage: -10 = 10% reduction and 10 = 10% increase. The base for
calculating is Acquisition Value.
- Enter the event date. The object must be fully depreciated up to and
including the event date. This means that a change can take place with an event date
that is at the end of a period only.
- Enter the retroactive date; the date to which the transaction affected. Event date is the
default value.
- Click OK.
