to Complete Batch Options for Process Replacement Cost
Note: Only one batch can be created (open) at a time within the Process Replacement Cost option. Also, a batch can only be created with a Processing Month that is in the same month or a later month than the most recent process replacement cost batch.
The Process Replacement Cost screen will appear listing all current assets in the Asset File Maintenance option that meet the following: have not had the replacement cost calculated for the current year, are not included in an unposted batch within the Process Asset Disposal option, and have a Replacement Cost Change Factor that is not equal to zero.
Verify the new replacement costs on the screen for the assets, or print a listing to verify the information.
If any information needs to be changed, close this screen by clicking the Cancel button and then make the necessary changes in the Asset File Maintenance option or complete an adjustment in the Adjust Replacement Cost option for the desired asset.
Once all the information is correct, click the Execute button to calculate the new replacement costs; when prompted to continue, click Yes.
After the process is complete, a message will appear; click OK.
