| The code | can be maximum four digits and is normally a short name of the type, e.g. COMP for Computers. |
|---|---|
| The Handling code | controls the depreciation rules for the asset type:
Asset is the most used handling code; assets with this type can be depreciated and sold with automatic posting. Leasing does not generate any depreciations and does not carry any part of the acquisition as expense but handles the asset as leasing. Carry as expensed can be used for registering assets that are carried as expenses directly at the time of acquisition. Estimate enables budgeting assets. In inventory related reports it is possible to make selections based on handling code. |
| The field Depreciation - months | shows a suggestion of number of depreciation months for this kind of asset. The number can be changed for single assets. |
| Next asset no | type code, NNNNNN a serial number for the main asset and the last NN a sub serial number to a main asset. An asset number can |look like this: COMP-000001-01 |
| The number ranges | can be kept separately per asset type. It is also possible to use one global number range number for several or all asset types. If you use a global numbering ranges, Next asset no must be 0. |
| Account for acquisitions | is used when booking new assets and disposals. By the time of acquisition, the total cost of the asset is charged. By time of selling an asset, a reversal of the total amount is suggested, but can be changed. |
| Account for decrease of value | is used in depreciations and disposals. When depreciating, the amount is credited. When selling, charging of the total previously depreciated amount is suggested. |
| Account for depreciation expenses | is used when depreciating. When depreciating the total amount to depreciate is charged. When selling, charging of the total previously depreciated amount is suggested |
| Account for sales expenses | is used in sales. When selling, the remaining amount is suggested to be charged. |
| Account for rejection expenses | Used when rejecting assets |
| Account for larceny expenses | Used when assets have been stolen |
We recommend you use separate accounts for each asset type and type of posting.
