Changing an Asset within Asset File Maintenance

  1. From the Fixed Asset Inventory screen, select the Assets menu and then Asset File Maintenance.

  2. At the Asset File Maintenance screen, enter the asset tag number for the asset to change in the Asset Tag field.  If the tag number is not known, click the Find button to select the correct asset.

  3. Make the desired changes to the asset.

Note:  Changes can be made to the asset as needed, with the exception of the following fields which cannot be changed directly within the Asset File Maintenance option:  Disposed (if tied to General Ledger entries), Disposal Date, Disposal Type ID, Replacement Cost, Depreciation, and Depreciation Accumulated.

Note:  The Depreciation Accounts section with the Debits and Credits Lists will be disabled if the asset has an entry included in an unposted batch in the Adjust Accumulated Depreciation option.

  1. After all the changes have been made, click the Save button.

  2. If the asset tag number for the asset was changed, a prompt will appear verifying whether or not to change the asset tag number.  To change the asset tag number for the asset, click the Change button.  To not change the asset tag number and revert to use the original one, click the Revert to Original button.
