Rollback of Step

Explanation

This activity is used to rollback executed steps of a cost allocation procedure. The purpose of rolling back a step is to make modifications to it.

Prerequisites

In order to perform this activity, the following is required.

The Executed check box in the PCA Step Definition window should be selected for the step(s) which you want to roll back.
If you want to rollback more than one step at a time, Batch should be selected as the execution mode in the Company|Periodical Cost Allocation tab. If you want to rollback only one step at a time in sequence, the execution mode should be Single.

System Effects

As a result of this activity, the Executed check box will be cleared for the selected step(s). In addition, the following system effects will take place for each step type.

Step Type	System Effects
Prepare Distribution	The distribution items will be removed and the status of the distribution will change to Defined.
Prepare Factor	The Value (%) field will be cleared for the relevant factor. The status of the factor will change to Defined.
Generate Voucher	The voucher generated from the step is removed from the hold table or the relevant ledger if the rollback mode specified in the Company\|Periodical Cost Allocation tab is Rollback. A correction voucher will be created in the hold table or the relevant ledger if the rollback mode specified in the Company\|Periodical Cost Allocation tab is Correction. Note that rollback/correction is carried out in the ledger only if the voucher is already updated to ledger. If a factor/distribution was used in this step and there are no previous steps which use the same factor/distribution, the status of that factor/distribution will change to Prepared.
Manual Voucher	If you have manually entered voucher rows for the voucher, it will be handled the same way as described for Generate Voucher step type above. If only the voucher header details exist in the hold table, no changes will take place.
Update Ledger	N/A
Create Budget Allocation	N/A
Update Budget	The relevant budget balances will be reverted to be the same as what they were before the step was executed.
