Hello everyone!

From time to time I have a problem with acquired fixed assets from purchase invoice. Some of them has no marked checkbox "Acquired" on FA card. I can't find the rule that causes this situation. In my opinnion I do everything correct when I create purchase invoice for new fixed assets. I fill FA Posting Date and FA Posting Type. Has anyone encountered such a case?

Thank you in advance!

Hi AntonioKD, when you say the acquisition cost is posted on the proper account, do you mean it has been coded to the correct General Ledger account? When acquiring assets via a Purchase Order or Invoice, you select Type = Fixed Asset, and set the No. to the corresponding Asset. When you receive and invoice the asset the asset will become acquired and boolean field / tick box will become ticked on the asset card.

In the scenario a user has just posted the invoice direct to the G/L account and not linked it to the Asset Card, use a Fixed Asset G/L journal with a line crediting G/L Account and a line debiting with Type set to Fixed Asset and the No. set to the corresponding Fixed Asset card.

Hi,

Have you found the reason for this? Hope you have selected Type as Fixed Asset and No. as FA No. in Purchase Line.

One of my client also got the same issue where everything posted correctly. Even FA Ledger Entries got updated with FA Posting Type = Acquisition Cost. But Acquired checkbox is not marked..

Hi

We have found this happening when the Fixed Asset card is still open, and the Purchase Invoice is posted. If you close the Fixed Asset card, and then post the sales invoice it works as expected.

Yes, everything is posted correctly, as you described.

Hello NoelineNel,

Please tell me, does it always happen when FA card is open and you post purchase invoice?

I have made multiple tests, when I have created new fixed asset, I have not close this card but I went to the purchase invoice, then post this invoice and checkbox is marked.. Maybe you mean other situation? Can you describe it?

It happens very rarely.

Do you submit this problem to Microsoft ?
