You can use the HistoryWalker - Scoped, Global | ServiceNow Developers API to walk backwards to the previous value and then set the value in a glide update.

Hi Aishwarya,

The easiest way will be to write a background/fix script to revert the values for all those records.

You need to glide the records in asset table for which you want to update the state values and then just update those reocrds.

If you need any help with the script then let me know I would be happy to help you.

Please mark this as correct and helpful if it resolved the query or lead you in right direction.
