Why did I receive the following message while saving an Asset Master?
"Status must be set to Disposal, since disposal information has been entered."
This message will display when you save an asset if any data was previously manually entered on the Disp Info tab of the Manage Asset Master Information screen. Under normal circumstances, you will enter most disposals on the Manage Disposal Transactions screen and post them using the Post Fixed Assets Journal screen. During the posting process, the system will automatically update the Disp Info tab with the disposal data.
To save the asset without changing the Record Status to Disposal, open the Disp Info tab and delete any data in the fields in the Disposal Info group box and any Depreciation Adjustment entered in the Table Window (for all books). If you still cannot save the asset, there may be data in other disposal-related fields in the ASSET table that must be cleared through the table. This may have occurred if the data was imported from another system. (Disposal columns in ASSET table: DISP_DT, DISP_FY_CD, DISP_PD_NO, DISP_SUB_PD_NO, DISP_PRICE_AMT, DISP_DESC, DISP_S_JNL_CD, DISP_POST_SEQ_NO, S_DISPOSAL_CD, and DISP_TYPE.)
