Fixed Asset- Other charges allocation

PPP

Hi team,

We are doing an acquisition of FA transaction through Purchase- Invoice using the FA as Item type. Along with this we are paying some Freight Charges.

I am using Structure to calculate the Frieght Amount .Since the freight amount to be added to the fixed asset. I am creating a FA GL Journal with crediting the A/c debiting the Fixed Asset and posting type giving a 'Acquisition'.Also the Document type i am giving as 'Finance Charges Memo'

Hope the procedure I am doing is correct. Please suggest your valuable comments

Thanks

What ever way you use (G/L / Charges in structure/Charges(Item)) the cost will not be loaded on the FA. You need to select the FA in the purchase line (for charge amount) or pass a FA G/L Journal entry.
