New fixed assets are recorded in the menu selection in SimplBooks:\u00a0Operations -> Purchase invoices<\/strong><\/p>\n

Recording fixed assets with a purchase invoice<\/strong><\/p>\n

When entering the purchase invoice for fixed assets, it is important that you select the same or similar account on the purchase invoice row that is found in the menu selection: Settings -> Automatic entries<\/strong> saved under to the fixed assets in the financial account. In the case of a new account this means accounts 12xx. It would be reasonable prior to entering the invoice to check it and, if necessary, change it. If you forget to do so, and the fixed asset card is not created, then open the appended purchase invoice for amending and simply save it again.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Entering a purchase invoice<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the menu selection Operations -> Purchase Invoices -> New Invoice<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Enter the purchase invoice data as usual. The difference between recording fixed assets is that on the block of purchase invoice rows a fixed asset account should be used in the \u201caccount\u201d<\/strong> field which, by default, has the number \u201c12xx\u201d<\/strong> in the account plan.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Account<\/strong> \u2013 enter fixed account financial account (by default 12xx in the account plan)<\/li>\n
  2. Content<\/strong> \u2013 enter the name of the fixed asset<\/li>\n
  3. Sum<\/strong> \u2013 acquisition sum (net of VAT)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    If all necessary information has been added, click on the button \u201cSave Purchase Invoice\u201d<\/strong>. If everything has been entered correctly, a fixed assets panel will be created on the purchase invoice, in which you can see the associated fixed asset(s).<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    If you have configured automatic financial entries, the associated financial entry will also appear immediately (at the bottom of the page). Open created fixed assets by using the \u201cMagnifying glass”<\/strong> icon, review the depreciation indicators.<\/p>\n

    Filling in the fixed asset card<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Depreciation per year<\/strong> – annual depreciation calculation percentage, dependent upon which is the intended period of use of the asset (for example\u00a0 if the asset’s useful life is set at 5\u00a0 years, then 20% should be entered here, i.e. 100% \/ 5 years = 20 %)<\/li>\n
    2. Fixed asset depreciation (balance sheet)<\/strong> \u2013 to which account in the balance sheet is the depreciation being carried, i.e. the depreciation of the fixed asset and its loss in value.\u00a0 The same account as the one in the automatic entry settings for fixed assets is assigned by default.<\/li>\n
    3. Fixed asset depreciation (income statement)<\/strong> \u2013 to which account is the depreciation entered in the income statement. The same account as the one in the automatic entry settings for fixed assets is assigned by default.<\/li>\n
    4. First depreciation entry<\/strong> \u2013 the default value depends on the central settings for fixed assets \u2013 this may be either the beginning of the month following the acquisition date or the acquisition date. This date may change \u2013 the following depreciation entries are made on the same date or one that is as close as possible.<\/li>\n
    5. Source document<\/strong> \u2013 reference to the purchase invoice row, on the basis of which the fixed asset card was prepared. As long as the fixed asset card is associated with the purchase invoice row, the name, value and acquisition date of the fixed asset cannot be changed.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Click on the button \u201cSave fixed asset\u201d<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
