Use

When you create a company code using the template for Colombia, the system creates sample account determination rules for asset classes.

With Structure link account determination, you can automatically update all relevant transactions to the general ledger in accordance with Colombian legal requirements. These include all accounting transactions that are posted to assets, and all changes to asset values that are automatically calculated by the system.

Integration

The account determination rules allow you to generate postings from Asset Accounting to Financial Accounting.

Example

In Colombia, in the asset class for office equipment, acquisitions must be posted to general ledger accounts between 15240500 to 15249500. Following the account determination rule CO152400, the asset acquisition is posted to account 15240500. If the acquisition is to be posted to 15241000 or 15249500, for example, you create a new account determination rule by copying from CO152400.

Activities

First, you create asset classes according to your requirements. Next, to use the account determination rules for Colombia, you assign an account determination rule to the respective asset class.
