There are four methods for integrating Fixed assets and Accounts payable:

  1. Manually create a fixed asset record in Fixed assets before you add the fixed asset number to the line in the purchase order or invoice. Post an acquisition transaction for the asset when you post the invoice. This is the default method.

  2. Manually create a fixed asset record in Fixed assets before you add the fixed asset number to the line in the purchase order or invoice. Do not post an acquisition transaction for the asset when you post the invoice.

  3. Automatically create a fixed asset record when you post the product receipt or invoice that has the Create asset during product receipt or invoice posting check box selected in the Fixed assets parameters form. Post an acquisition transaction for the asset when you post the invoice.

  4. Automatically create a fixed asset record when you post the product receipt or invoice that has the Create asset during product receipt or invoice posting check box selected in the Fixed assets parameters form. Do not post an acquisition transaction for the asset when you post the invoice.

This information discusses how to post acquisition and acquisition adjustment transactions from Fixed assets, which is useful if you do not post an acquisition transaction for the asset when you post the invoice. If you use the first or third integration method, you do not have to follow these steps because an acquisition transaction is posted from Accounts payable.
