Code Field, FA Posting Group Table

Specifies a fixed asset posting group code. You can enter a maximum of 10 characters, both numbers and letters.

For each posting group, you set up a code and various account numbers. Then you enter the code in the FA Posting Groups field in the FA Depreciation Book window that is linked to the individual fixed asset card.

In the following situations, the program will then use the information represented by the code to post to the accounts you specified:

  • Posting of purchase orders, invoices or credit memos

  • Posting of fixed asset transactions using journals

  • Posting journals with the help of the Calculate Depreciation batch job

  • Posting journals with the help of the Index Fixed Assets

Posting groups also let you group fixed assets for statistical purposes.

Use codes that are easy to remember and descriptive, such as:

Car, Machinery, Building or Computer

The code must be unique—you cannot have the same code twice in one table. You can set up as many posting groups as you like.
