Depreciation issue with deleted assets

Depreciation assets 2, 4 snd 5 were deleted by mistake but they keep showing up on the balance sheet. Is there a way to replace those exact assets?

    re-enter them

    The reason they still show on the balance sheet even after being deleted is because the balance sheet builds from the PY gross assets and accumulated depreciation amounts. CY just takes those fields and adds new assets and removes assets marked disposed (i.e., not deleted) on the “Depr” screen.

    Like ​@sjrcpa said, the proper course of action is just to re-enter them. That should put you back to right.

    We tried re-entering  and that was flawed. We ended up doing a pro-forma from 2024.
