Welcome to the Community space, steph.

 

Let's perform some troubleshooting to check your setup and correct the depreciation journals.

 

Begin by reviewing your account mapping to ensure the appropriate accounts are connected to the General Ledger. Next, in the Fixed Asset module, verify the Asset Types to see that they are still correctly mapped to the Accumulated Depreciation and Depreciation Expense accounts listed in your Chart of Accounts.

 

Changes to account names or deletions may lead to posting errors. The depreciation posting period needs to be open, too. Otherwise, you'll need to adjust the Closing date or temporarily open it. Please also confirm that each asset has a depreciation schedule, start date, and method configured correctly.

 

Alternatively, I recommend consulting an accountant if you need to make an adjustment. They can provide the best method to fix the journal, while maintaining accurate financial reporting and specific tax depreciation rules for your jurisdiction.
