Transfer Journals
LN identifies data for journal creation each time you transfer an asset. LN creates two journals for each transfer:
- For the company transferring the asset, LN credits the asset account, debits the accumulated depreciation account, and debits the intercompany account with the destination company.
- For the company receiving the asset, LN debits the asset account, and credits the intercompany account. For transfers within legal companies, LN also credits the accumulated depreciation account.
Note: For transfers of
assets with intercompany distribution lines, LN makes no special
entries in addition to the ones listed above. Any restatement of depreciation
as a result of transfer will cause a reversal of previous journal entries for
both companies.
