Asset

Methods

Amend

Driver Type: SASI

Use this method to amend one or more assets. If an asset does not exist, an error message is produced and the payload is rejected.

BulkCreateOrAmend

Driver Type: DJI

Use this method for the bulk loading of assets, or the bulk amendment of assets, or where performance is critical.

Note: This method does not support all functionality. There is no validation for the Reduction fields, or for the Advanced Depreciation fields, apart from the account codes AdvancedDepreciationAccountBalanceSheet and AdvancedDepreciationAccountProfitLoss. If you want to create or amend an Asset record that includes these settings, then you must use CreateOrAmend, because using BulkCreateOrAmend may result in invalid data. The Advanced Depreciation settings for the Base, Transaction and Reporting properties are enabled if the Advanced Depreciation is defined on the Ledger Setup record.

Closed

Driver Type: SASI

Use this method to change the status of one or more assets to Closed.

Create

Driver Type: SASI

Use this method to create one or more assets. If an asset already exists, an error message is produced and the payload is rejected.

CreateAsDraft

Driver Type: SASI

Use this method to create one or more draft assets.

CreateOrAmend

Driver Type: SASI

Use this method to create or amend one or more assets. An asset is created if it does not exist and amended if it does. Both the Create and Amend methods require you to know in advance if the asset exists, whereas this method can be used if you are unsure.

Note: The payload values are applied once assets are amended or created. Users can override the Asset Class Code settings by supplying a new value in the payload.
