Once an asset item is Accepted, it can't be deleted, but it can be disposed. See Dispose Asset Items for more information.
Select Asset Management from the Purchasing & Payables / Capital Assets menu. The Asset Management window opens.
Check the box for the asset on which you want to accept asset items, and click Edit. The Edit Asset window opens.

Select either:

Use this option for historical
assets — for example, a bus purchased in 1995 that you're now
entering in AptaFund. Enter a date that falls within the current
accounting cycle. Then use the In Service Date on the asset record
to designate when
the asset actually came into service.
Click OK.
