Fixed assets module doubts
i would spend some time to reply one or two questions rest i will pass on to others
1. ASSET FLEXFILEDS
Key flexfield
there are 3 key flexfelds in asset module 1. category 2. location and 3rd is asset key
plus there are also some other flexfields like we need to tell system on which GL account depreciation should be charged so GLCC is required to fill also. plus other descriptive flexfields include asset model number , manufacturer name etc.
2. NO WE NEED TO IMPLEMENT THE LOCATION FLEXFIELD SEPARATELY and that location ff is compulsory not vision ops.
3. doubtful
4. asset calendar
perhaps u are asking in the scenario of depreciation?
rest i leave on other gurus

*time we retain it means full
*or vice versa of the first
4-usually companies preferred to use the 2nd one or according to Tax rules because it is also a method to conceal profit
5-in the scenario mentioned above means major conflict due to tax or subsidiary of

i will answer to remaining questions
11. when the asset is in work-in-progress status, is called CIP asset. like building construction. at this stage we won't calculate the depreciation. once the building construction is completed that should be capitalised, and dep starts.
13. roll back dep means we can revert back the depreciation for current run period. projection means we can view the dep amt for future periods without running dep program
