How to reset everything back to the beginning of the year

Question

We entering many many incorrect disposals and would like to reset everything back to the way it was before we started doing any work in the 2021 system. All we have is a backup of the system at the end of 2020 before we rolled over to 2021. Is it possible to undo everything that was entered in the 2021 system so we can start from scratch?

Hello Joe, 
 I supposed you could restore that backup, but that would mean reentering everything for they year. It might be simpler, assuming it is just the current year disposals involved, to follow the process in How to undo a bulk disposal where the group you need to create would be on Disposal Date on either greater than the last FY end date or is between and the beginning and end dates of the current year then when you reset to the Beginning date, all the current year disposals will be undone.

I was under the impression the disposals where wrong which generally requires an undo redo of the disposal - Did you mean that only the Proceeds were incorrect?

Unless you did a backup prior to resetting those disposed assets the process would be: First - Run depreciation back to your prior FY end, at that point you see that the Current accum is the prior year totals you are looking for. Then re-enter the the disposal, this time with the correct proceeds. After all that is done, then you can re-run depreciation back to the current period and you should see all the same depreciation calculations you had before. To edit just the proceeds, you can go through and edit each disposal, see How to edit a disposal which will work for just about anything on the disposal except the Disposal date or if the disposal method in LKE or a partial disposal. This is no access to do this type of change on a group of access.
