Fixed Asset abbreviations when importing

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 75,848 Moderator

I am creating a SQL script to create the macros to import fixed asset GENERAL and BOOK information.  Looking at the template for BOOK I see:

SLO -Depreciation Method

FP -Averaging Convention

NS - Switchover

Is there a guide that list all the accepted abbreviations for these three fixed asset properties?

    1. Go to Tools>Utilities>Fixed Assets>Asset Import\Export
    2. Click Help>About this window
    3. Click the option "Guidlines for importing asset information".
    4. At the bottom of the page you will see "Field mappings for importing asset information" click this
