Approve a Lease Accounting Schedule - Common Procedure

You can mark lease accounting schedules as being approved. The Approved? flag behaves similarly to the Locked flag on the ASC 842 Test and Accounting Assumptions pages.

Important!

Once a schedule has been approved, it cannot be un-approved. Additionally, an approved schedule cannot be deleted.

If a System Administrator has enabled the Restrict Accounting Schedule Approver setting:

  1. A user cannot approve accounting schedules where:

    1. The user created the schedule, OR

    2. The user triggered the Recalc? flag on the schedule.

      In either of these two scenarios, the Approved check box is disabled for the schedule.

  2. A user can approve accounting schedules where the above conditions are false.

  3. These settings apply to accounting schedules for RE Contracts, Equipment Contracts, and Assets.
