CHANGE EQUIPMENT CODE

 

 

 

 

DESCRIPTION:  Change Equipment Code is used to change or modify the equipment code and history to something different.  For example, if you want to use the same equipment code for a new piece of equipment, take the old number and place an "R" (for retired) in front of it.  So if the old equipment number was 196, you can make it R196.  This way you will be able to use 196 again and all the old transactions will be attached to R196, not 196.

 

NOTE:  This menu item has the potential to change how Pro Fund Accounting operates.  It is highly recommended that all other users exit Pro Fund Accounting before using this menu item.

 

 

 

To access:  Click on the Equipment module  then click the Change Equipment Code menu item.   

 

The following window will appear:

 

 

 

Enter the existing code for the equipment into the Old Equipment Code field or select the code by using the drop down list.

 

Enter the New Equipment Code you wish to use.  This code MUST NOT overlap with an existing equipment code.  Then click the OK button.  If you enter a code that is currently in use, the following message window will appear:  Unable to Change Equipment Code:  New Equipment Code Already Exists.  Click OK.  Then enter a different New Equipment Code.  Click OK.  A confirmation window will appear.  Click Yes.  A success message will appear.  Click OK.

 

When you are finished, Pro Fund Accounting will need to restart to complete your adjustments.  Click OK.  A message window will appear:  Are you sure you want to exit?  Click Yes.
