Synchronizing Fixed Assets and Equipment 

Use

If a piece of equipment is assigned to a fixed asset, the master data of the piece of equipment must be synchronized with asset accounting.

Historical changes are not transferred to asset accounting.

Prerequisites

You have activated the synchronization of fixed assets and equipment (asset coupling) in Customizing.

You make these settings under Financial Accounting → Asset Accounting → Master Data → Automatic Creation of Equipment Master Records → Specify Conditions for Synchronization of Master Data.

Features

When the actual history is replaced with the target history, the system checks if the synchronization of fixed assets and equipment is activated. If the answer is yes, the fixed asset is synchronized with the current equipment data.

Activities

The system documents the result of the check in the conversion log.
