Fixed Asset General Ledger depreciation different than FA book

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 10

Hello,

I am investigating an issue regarding my Fixed Asset GL and book. My book is reporting higher than my GL. So far I've searched the book for possible retired equipment and no such luck.

Are there any other possible issues that may have resulted to this variance?

    The GL to Fixed Asset Reconciliation report would assist. Mark the box - Not Interfaced to GL to see the entries that are processed in the FA Module but did not post to the GL.

    Have you reviewed the Fixed Assets to General Ledger Reconciliation report?  I would run that in detail for the account that is off.

    hi

    there are a few other possible issues that could cause a variance between the Fixed Asset book and the GL:

    Unposted transactions: If there are any unposted transactions in the Fixed Asset module, they will not be reflected in the GL until they are posted. Check to see if there are any unposted transactions that may be causing the variance.

    Reconciling items: Check the Fixed Asset Reconcile window to see if there are any reconciling items. These are differences between the book and the GL that need to be resolved. If there are any reconciling items, you will need to investigate them to determine the cause of the variance.

    Depreciation method or convention changes: If the depreciation method or convention is changed mid-year, this can cause a variance between the book and the GL. Check to see if there were any changes made to the depreciation method or convention during the year.

    Data entry errors: Check to see if there are any data entry errors that may have caused the variance. This could include incorrect asset values, incorrect depreciation expense entries, or other errors.

    By investigating these potential issues, you should be able to determine the cause of the variance between the Fixed Asset book and the GL.
