    Thanks Ludwig for your analysis on budgeting on fixed assets. I have gone through both the part1 and 2 of your blog on this topic.

    However, unfortunately I have a constraint on the account structures (I am on AX 2012 R3 CU8). My company has around 20 active account structures in 50+ legal entities. Because of this reason, I am trying to avoid merging those account structures into one.

    My fixed asset budget is on the main account level. I need to define an (debit) amount on the fixed asset summary account. Any transactions that that tries to increase that amount will throw an error saying that it has exceeded the budget amount).

    I tried with some workarounds (balance control on main account, depreciation books, cost budgets etc.) but no avail. Any ideas from your side? Thanks in advance.

    Hi wandee,

    Yes, you are right and that's what I mentioned in the next part here :-)

    (dynamicsax-fico.com/.../budget-control-for-fixed-assets-part-2-ax7)

    Even though D365fO was initially build upon AX2012 R3 there are differences and those differences will increase over time making D365fO more powerful than AX2012 R3 ever was :-)

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi,

    Thanks for the lead.

    The reason I asked is because it seems that MSD365 had this function already. So I thought that AX 2012 R3 some CU will have the same functionality.
