History Tab of the Asset Review Form or Dialog Box

Use this tab to view the transaction history for an asset item.

Whenever you complete depreciation, split, transfer, or disposal processing for an asset item, the transaction information displays on this tab. The transactions are from all periods, not just the active (current) period that you have open on the screen.

You can view the transactions for the GL Book, or for any additional books that are in use for an asset item. The GL Book transactions are posted to your general ledger. Additional book transactions are not posted to your general ledger.

When you use the Undo Posting utility to undo the postings for depreciation and disposal processing for an asset item, transaction amounts are removed from this tab.
