Capitalizing Assets Funded by Grants

The Activity Management Asset Interface lets you enter asset information in the Project Accounting system for cost tracking. Then the interface program transfers the asset information to Asset Management when the activity is closed or the asset can begin being depreciated.

An activity can be a unique asset, or each account category of the activity can be an asset by itself. You define the assets based on how you want to organize and capitalize assets. Asset transactions are created and enter the Asset Management system when you run Asset Interface (AC160). The asset cost amount is determined by summing activity expense transactions.

The following Project Accounting and Asset Management programs have been modified to include a new grant field to satisfy the requirement to allow the ability to track the grant id on assets funded by grant.

Please refer the Project Accounting User Guide and Asset Management User Guide for procedures for these programs.
