Fixed Asset G/L Journal

muziclovermuziclover Member Posts: 65
A client we inherited that uses Fixed Assets has their main Depreciation Book mapped to the General Journal, not the Fixed Asset G/L journal template. I discovered this upon running the Calculate Depreciation batch. Obviously, the F/A G/L Journal has fixed asset-related fields that the General Journal does not. The thing is, they have been running this way for quite some time.

Does anyone know of any potential problems with doing this? They are on Version 5.0.

Thanks!

    Hi muziclover,

    AFAIK, none. The base table is the same (T81), only different forms. The only problem you can encounter is that you need a field for special FA postings which is usually not there in the General Journal. You can change the setup at any time, BTW.

    with best regards
