For any of these budgets, Focus checks  if there is a strip with the same elements but an active version of the inactive element. If there is one, Focus moves the journals to that strip. If there is no valid strip, Focus creates one. If that strip has not been budgeted for the current fiscal year, Focus creates the budget record for that strip.

An error message displays if there isn’t an active element available. You  need to create an element and re-run the strip.

At the end of the process, the budget record for the accounting strip with bad data is deleted.
