Fixed asset module D365 10.0.16

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 35

Hi -

Version: D365 10.0.16

Preface:

- Business workflow/process uses and will continue to use the Project Module (PM). The PM entries populate the fixed asset main accounts.

- Fixed Asset Registers (FARs) are maintained in Excel.

Question 1:

Given that the PM will be used is the best use of the Fixed asset module in D36g going to be as a non GL layer posting tool {Post to general ledger: No}? The idea in my head is that there are two layers: FAR and Tax in the FA module. In this way I would have a register that agrees to my General Ledger and could add on the tax layer to get to the tax return & net book values etc.

Question 2:

For CIP/WIP I think using the PM items is the best way to keep that stuff organized. Once the asset is ready to be put into use we would use a General Journal to move it to the FA account and then separately go into the FA module to enter the new asset. Is this thinking correct or are there other best practices?

Thank you in advance,

    Ultimately we need a tax and accounting register in the system.

    - Derived books are the answer :)

    Hi ialokin,

    I don't fully understand your question/issue.

    Can you describe your issue in more detail?

    Many thanks,

    Ludwig

    Subsequent to posting this I saw a MS Community link for derived books. So I believe I can maintain my accounting and tax registers in the module by simply using derived books that are linked to custom posting layers.

    Given that the Project Module is hitting current I don't want to fixed asset module books hitting that again. My thought is I use posting layer Operations for the "IFRS" books and derived books from those with posting layer Tax.  

    Is that the best approach? Also, is there a way to rename the posting layer from "Custom 1" etc. so something more meaningful?
