Create Group for Fixed Assets

This document explains how you define categories for grouping a company's fixed assets. Using groups is not required, but enables you to keep track of similar fixed assets.

Outcome

Groups for fixed assets are defined.

Connect a group to a fixed asset type in 'Fixed Asset Type. Open' (FAS075) (optional). The group is then automatically proposed when entering a fixed asset with that asset type in 'Fixed Asset. Open' (FAS001).

You can also connect a group directly to a fixed asset in (FAS001).

The group can then be used as selection criterion in:

  • 'Fixed Assets. Print Catalog' (FAS500/E)
  • 'Fixed Assets. Print Value' (FAS510/E)
  • 'Fixed Assets. Print Period Changes' (FAS520/E), when printing assets changed during a specified period range
  • 'Fixed Assets. Print Historical Values' (FAS530/E)
  • 'Five Years FA Group History. Print' (FAS565/E).

The parameter file (CSYTAB) is updated.
