# Schedule Recalculation in Case of Amendment

After a lease schedule has been activated, changes to the lease agreement may require the schedule to be updated. Common examples include:

* Changes to the lease payment amount
* Extension or reduction of the lease term
* Changes to the discount rate

In the ASC 842 solution, this process is handled through a **Schedule Amendment**.

#### Amendment Rules

The following rules apply when creating a schedule amendment:

* Changes can only be applied to future periods.
* Schedule lines that already have posted accounting transactions cannot be modified.
* A new schedule version must be created for every amendment.

### Creating a New Schedule Version

To amend an active lease schedule:

1. Open the active schedule.
2. Select **Create New Version**.
3. The system creates a new schedule version that can be edited.

The newly created version receives:

* **Version Status = New**
* **Schedule Status = Pre-Contract**

### Updating Schedule Information

Once the new version has been created, the schedule becomes editable.

For example, the **Period Payment** amount can be changed from 4,000 to 4,500. After modifying any schedule input parameter, the system automatically recalculates the schedule. No additional calculation action is required.

### Confirming the Amendment

After all required changes have been reviewed, confirm the amended schedule using the same **Confirm** action that is used for the initial schedule activation.

### Amendment Results

When the amendment is confirmed:

#### Schedule Status Changes

The amended version becomes the active schedule version:

* **Schedule Status = Active**
* **Version Status = Valid**

The previous version remains available for historical reference and receives:

* **Version Status = Old**

#### Accounting Entries

The system automatically creates adjustment entries for:

* Lease liability remeasurement based on the difference between the previously recorded liability balance and the newly calculated Present Value (PV).
* ROU Asset value adjustment.
