Fixed asset groups are defined to group fixed assets. By defining fixed asset groups, you accomplish the following goals:

  • Simplify the setup of fixed assets and posting profiles for fixed assets.

  • Simplify the creation of queries and reports.

  • Create a template, so that common information is copied by default into the records of new and similar fixed assets that are acquired by the company.

Use the FA groups form to define fixed asset groups for working clothes and special rigging accounting. To each group that you define, you assign an appropriate type that is specified in the Type of group field. You can also use the FA group value models form to set up value models for the defined fixed asset groups, and specify the duration of the wear or usage period of an asset.

  1. Click Fixed assets (Russia) > Setup > FA groups.

  2. Press CTRL+N to create a new fixed asset group.

  3. In the FA group field, enter the code for the fixed asset group. In the Name field, enter the name of the fixed asset group.

  4. In the Type of group field, select Fixed assets, Working clothes, Special rigging, or NVFA (not valuable fixed asset) as the type of fixed asset group.

  5. Select the Autonumeration FA check box to generate a fixed asset number automatically when you create fixed assets for the group in the Fixed assets form.

  6. In the FA autonumbering sequence field, select a number series for automatic number generation.

  7. In the VAT refunding field, select the start date for refunding value-added tax (VAT) for the fixed assets. Select one of the following options:

    • Acquisition date – Start refunding VAT from the acquisition date.

    • Depreciation run date – Start refunding VAT from the date of depreciation.

  8. Select the Barcodes autonumeration check box to generate bar codes automatically for the fixed assets in the group.

  9. In the Barcode autonumeration sequence field, select a number series for automatic bar code generation.

  10. Click Value models to open the FA group value models form.

  11. In the Value model field, select a value model for the fixed asset group.

  12. In the Depreciation group field, select a depreciation group for the fixed asset group.

    Note

    When you create a fixed asset for a specific fixed asset group, the value model and depreciation group that you define in this form are displayed by default in the Value models form and cannot be changed.

  13. Select the Service life by rate check box to specify the wear or usage period for the asset, based on the lifetime that is specified during the issue process in the Working clothes/Special rigging/NVFA issue journal form. If you do not select this check box, the usage period is determined by the depreciation group.

    Note

    The Service life by rate check box is available only when you select Working clothes, Special rigging, or NVFA in the Type of group field in the FA groups form. If you select this check box, the lifetime that is specified in the Issue and usage rates form is updated in the Lifetime field in the Working clothes/Special riggings/NVFA issue journal lines form when you create an issue journal for the asset. The lifetime is updated on the working clothes or special rigging card.
