Account for transaction type Disposal - sale, book BOOK, does not exist for fixed asset XXXXX

Posted on by 272

Hello

When trying to sell an already created asset I get the error above.
I have the Swedish chart of accounts and I am testing to understad the sales part of fixed assets. 

I attach the posting profile here. I have checked that accounts are available in the structure and that the structure is activated.

    It did not work to use the journal. Had to be the free text invoice :-)

    Never tried but with to select the type as sale you may.

    But you can not print an invoice.

    Can I not use a normal asset journal and choose the asset sale in the journal?

    You do not need to.

    If it is sales from free text invoice, sales is enough.

    Do I have to use both sale and scrap?

    To set up General ledger posting accounts to use when you're disposing of an asset, select Disposal - sale and Disposal - scrap in the Ledger accounts FastTab on the Fixed assets posting profiles page.

    You need to check the setup highlighted in red for sales.
