The reversal process in OIPA is actually an activity that is created
to modify a processed activity. The reversal process allows changes
to activities that could affect other processed activities. There
are two parts to the reversal process. You need to identify the
activity and then select the recycle button. All details will be
maintained within the OIPA system.
If you only need to update information stored in an activity, you can
use the Recycle icon. Recycling reverses a current
activity and allows you to replace incorrect information in the activity.
This eliminates the step of having to re-enter the same activity
with the correct information. When clicked, the Recycle icon allows
you to recycle or redo an activity if you need to change certain information
that was originally entered. As a result, any activity that is spawned
by this activity will be removed and regenerated upon reprocessing. The
outcome of the recycle option is that both a new and a reversal transaction
are generated.
