Book policy changed means the asset's retained basis needs review against current company settings. The asset detail directs you to reject any pending asset journal first, then use Review current policy. Do not assume the old schedule is automatically approved under the new policy.
Inspect the original acquisition, depreciation accounts, method and posted activity. Compare them with the current company book setup and determine what the supported policy review must confirm. Enter a specific Policy review reason explaining the conclusion.
Preserve existing journals and schedule history during this review. A policy change does not justify silently replacing earlier posted amounts, and a pending journal based on old evidence should not be approved simply to clear the queue.
After the permitted policy action, refresh the asset and inspect its current status and next available preparation. If a separate estimate change or correction is needed, use that workflow explicitly. Confirm the saved result before resuming monthly preparation so the subsequent journal rests on current reviewed evidence.
