2.3 Rolling Back

It is possible to rollback the costing process, using the rollback request from
Submit Reports and Requests.
This is only possible if you have not run the Transfer to GL process for that
costing process.
If you have you will need to rollback the transfer first, then the costing or you
will get locks.

It is also worth noting that if you have costed a value to the wrong account by
mistake,
you can rollback the costing change the cost code and re-run. This will only pick
up the new set of segments;
if the actual run result is incorrect, you will have to rollback the actual process
that calculated the value, a payroll for example.

In the following examples, it is assumed that you are using a Payroll Control
account as the Balancing account for regular payroll Costing.

Navigate from HRMS Manager responsibility or equivalent: Payroll > Payment Methods
> Costing tab

When "Cost Payment" box ONLY is checked:

Costing of Payment process results in

Debit Payroll Control


Credit Cash Account

This approach will clear the Payroll Control account that was credited during the
Costing process.
There are no other accounting lines produced after the payment has been reconciled
in Cash Management

"Cost Payment" box AND "Cost Cleared Payment" box is checked:


Costing of Payment run BEFORE clearing in Cash Management results in

Debit Payroll Control


Credit Cash Clearing

Costing of Payment run AFTER clearing in Cash Management results in

Debit Cash Clearing


Credit Cash Account

This approach will clear the Payroll Control account that was credited during the
Costing process,
and will create the credit to Cash Clearing. After reconciliation and running the
Costing of Payments again,
the amount of cleared payments will move from Cash Clearing to the Cash Account.
