Presetting the Asset Posting Analysis Codes

Asset Posting Presets are used to assign up to 10 default transaction analysis codes to the transactions being posted to an asset. You can create a number of alternative analysis code default combinations for a single asset, using an asset subcode to identify each. For example, to assign different analysis code combinations depending on whether you are posting an addition or revaluation transaction for the asset.

When you enter a transaction in Ledger Entry and reference a valid asset code/subcode combination, the transaction analysis codes identified for the subcode appear as default analysis codes for the transaction.

The posting presets are also used to assign analysis codes to the transactions generated by Depreciation Calculation (FDC) and Asset Disposal (FAD) and to apportion the total value generated by these functions, if required.

You can also use Business Rules to set or validate analysis codes on the asset transactions generated by Depreciation Calculation and Asset Disposal. To do this, create an Event Profile that checks for a Function Code of Asset Depreciation Calculation, or Asset Disposal, and use a Call Point of either 00015 Populate or 00016 Validate Analysis on System Generated Transactions. The analysis codes validated and set by Business Rules take precedence over those set in the Asset Posting Presets.
