To access the list of Fixed Assets, go to Asset Management > Master Data > Fixed Assets.
This form presents a list of fixed asset master records and helps you create master records for new fixed assets.
The Fixed Assets list
The hierarchic list of fixed assets includes all the master records available in the system. The fixed assets are listed with their inventory IDs, initial costs, accumulated depreciation amounts, net book values, statuses. If you don't see a specific fixed asset, open another folder, use the Search field to locate the asset master record by its properties. You can change the list display settings to suit your particular needs. To learn more about the list display settings, see Working with the item list.
The master records of fixed assets can be arranged in a hierarchical structure by using groups (folders). The number of hierarchy levels is virtually unlimited.
Initially, there are no master records of fixed asset in the system database. You can manually create records at any time and you can import the records as an .CSV or .XCL file.
To edit an existing master record, double-click the line with this master record.
