Delete Operational Measures

In the Joint Venture Operational Measures work area, select the operational measures you want to delete and click More Actions, Delete.

You can delete an operational measure only under the following conditions:

  • The operational measure hasn’t been processed to create a statistical journal entry. Unprocessed operational measures have a status of “Available to process” with a line type of “Original.”

  • The operational measure has been processed to create a statistical journal entry, which hasn’t been accounted. The operational measure will have a status of “Accounting in progress” with a line type of “Original,” which indicates that it hasn't been accounted. You must delete the unaccounted statistical journal entry before you can delete the operational measure.

    To delete the unaccounted statistical journal entry, open the operational measure and click the Review Transaction link. If the status in the accounting header is “Unprocessed,” click Delete Accounting to delete the unaccounted statistical journal entry from the Joint Venture subledger. This returns the operational measure to the “Available to process” status, which enables you to delete the operational measure.

  • A reversed operational measure that hasn’t been processed yet. The operational measure has a status of “Available to process” with a line type of “Reversed.”

    You can delete the operational measure, which changes the line type of the original operational measure for which the reversal record was created from “Canceled” back to “Original.”

  • A reversed operational measure that has been processed to create a reversed statistical journal entry, which hasn’t been accounted. The operational measure has a status of “Process complete” with a line type of “Reversed.” You must delete the unaccounted reversed statistical journal entry before you can delete the reversed operational measure.

    To delete the unaccounted reversed statistical journal entry, open the operational measure and click the Review Transaction link. If the status in the accounting header is “Unprocessed,” click Delete Accounting, which deletes the unaccounted reversed statistical journal entry from the Joint Venture subledger. This returns the reversed operational measure to the “Available to process” status, which enables you to delete it.

For tracking and auditing purposes, you can’t delete operational measures that have been processed to create statistical journal entries that have been fully accounted. You must reverse these types of operational measures to remove their associated journal entries from Subledger Accounting and the general ledger.
