Set Up Fixed Asset Maintenance

For maintenance facilities, you need to set up:

  • the Maintenance FastTab of the fixed asset card.

  • an account number in the FA Posting Groups window.

  • if you want maintenance costs allocated to departments and/or projects, you must set up an allocation key.

  • maintenance codes describing what kind of maintenance has been carried out (for example, routine service, repair).

The following table describes a sequence of tasks, with links to the topics that describe them. These tasks are listed in the order in which they are generally performed.
