Module · Fixed asset management

What the business owns, what it is worth, and the depreciation behind it

An asset register by category, building and project; straight-line depreciation in one run per period; and disposals that settle the asset out of the books.

The fixed asset register: 20 assets with asset number, name, category, status, acquisition date and cost, and location — laptops, a CAD workstation, a server, a plotter and vehicles — filterable by category, building and project.

How it flows

An asset’s life in the books

Draft, active, inactive or disposed — and a posting at each step that moves money.

  1. Draft
  2. Capitalised
  3. Monthly depreciation
  4. Disposal
  5. Disposal · gain or loss posted

Capabilities

What Fixed Assets covers

  • Asset register

    Assets with their components, category, cost, location, building and project.

  • Categories carry the policy

    The depreciation accounts are set on the category and the useful life defaults from it; an asset can override its own useful life.

  • Capitalisation

    A draft asset is activated and capitalised as its own posted document.

  • Depreciation runs

    One straight-line run per period, previewed before posting and reversible afterwards.

  • Depreciation register

    What was charged, on which asset and component, in which period.

  • Disposals and settlements

    Disposal removes the asset and its accumulated depreciation and books the gain or loss; settlement records the proceeds received.

In the books

What Fixed Assets posts to Accounting

Each step that moves value is a posting with a document behind it — not a journal someone remembered to write.

  • Capitalisation → the asset at cost
  • Depreciation run → depreciation expense and accumulated depreciation
  • Disposal → cost and accumulated depreciation written out, and the gain or loss
  • Settlement → the proceeds received against the disposal
How connected accounting works

Straight answers

Questions buyers ask us

Specific to Fixed Assets.

Which depreciation methods are supported?

Straight-line. Other methods are not available.

Can a run skip an asset with a problem?

No. A depreciation run is all or nothing: it posts only when every eligible component is clear, and the screen lists what is stopping it.

Can a posted run be undone?

Yes — by reversal, which leaves both the run and its reversal on record.
