The purchase of assets or costs that must be capitalized is the most important business process in Fixed Assets. Fixed Assets supports various ways of mapping this business process.

You can handle the following types of acquisitions within Fixed Assets:

  1. Acquisition with vendor

    • Original acquisition

    • Subsequent acquisition

  2. Acquisition without vendor

    • Original acquisition

    • Subsequent acquisition

  3. Credit memo

    • With vendor

    • Without vendor

Each posting document contains exactly one vendor or one clearing account. You can, however, enter postings for several assets in one transaction.

Caution Caution

All invoices concerning assets must be entered using Fixed Assets. If you use Fixed Assets, you must not post any asset transactions using the general ledger.

End of the caution.
