Fixed asset depreciation not posting to GL

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Delphi27 355

I am running depreciation for the first two months of 2013 - through the GP>Tools>Routines>Fixed Assets>Depreciate.

I have done this through the periods in question.

The assets - themselves show the depreciation.

I have also run GL Posting through the GP>....>Fixed Assets>GL Posting.

However the batch that is created shows $0.00 as the total with no transactions and the GL accounts do not reflect depreciation charges.

I HAD thought that I had all appropriate fiscal periods set properly, etc. but....

Suggestions on what to check - MUCH appreciated (way too may hours try to figure it out)  ?

Thanks

    You can also check that the asset account options are checked by going to Setup > FA > Company, and checking the "require account" option. Maybe this could be the reason the batch returns 0 values and no accounts.

    You may not have built your Fixed Asset Calendar.  To do so, go to Tools on the Microsoft Dynamics GP menu, point to Setup, point to Fixed Assets, and then click Calendar. Enter a Calendar ID and Description.  Click to select the Build Fixed Assets Fiscal Calendar check box and the Replace check box - you should select the Build from Fiscal Periods radio button.

    I just ran into a similar issue.  It turned out that on the Fixed Asset Company setup screen someone had changed the corporate book to the a different book so when they ran depreciation for the original corporate book nothing posted to the GL.  When we changed the company setup field=Corporate Book back to the correct corporate book the Fixed Asset GL posting process worked correctly.

    Couple of things which you can check.

    1) Check whether the period for which depreciation has run is included while running GL Posting.

    2) Check whether the Depr. Expense account and Depr. Reserve account are set as same. If so, since both Depr. Expense and Depr. Reserve accounts are same, the net effect of debit and credit is zero. So you will not have any transactions in the batch created by GL Posting routine.

    Hope this helps.

    currently working with a client with the same issue.  Ran depreciation and the batch on the financial side is zero.  

    The Fixed Assets to General Ledger Reconciliation - Detial is showing Account Not found, but it does have figures for the debits and credits.  

    The account groups are setup.

    you really need to clarify... was there any lines in the FATRX batch if you open it in the window - Transaction, Financial, Batches.

    If you go to Reports, FA, Activity, click on the drop down list and select the FA to GL reconciliation report, create a new report option, and then restrict the report to the FATRX batch that got created, you will be able to see the details that comprise the batch....

    it is possible that the lines that got picked up may have used the same account number for the debit and credit entry, therefore becoming a 0 dollar entry in the GL.

    I ran into an issue similar to this a few months ago where the client was appending a sufiix onto the FATRX batch ID through a customization and it threw the GL Posting creation process into a tizzy.  Do you have any customizations in your Fixed Assets module?

    Dear All,

    Does this issue is resolved.

    When i run the FA to GL posting, after running the depreciation for the month. The batch total shows zero values.

    And the depreciation is not posted to GL accounts.
