Asset Open Transaction Review and Processing

Navigation: Asset Management > Depreciation > Open Transactions > Review

Asset management records any kind of action that may generate an accounting entry related to an asset as an Open Transaction.  These include things like asset additions, retirements, adjustments, and recategorizations. 

  1. The Open Transactions search page displays.  Open transactions have three statuses that indicate their overall processing completeness:
    • Depreciation Calc Status – Indicates whether Depreciation Calculation has been run for a particular Open Transaction.  Open Transactions must go through Depreciation Calc before being processed further.
    • Acctg Entry Creation Status – Indicates whether the Open Transactions has been picked up by the Create Accounting Entries process in AM.  Create Accounting Entries must be run before an Open Transactions can be picked up by Journal Generation.
    • Reporting Process Status – AM stores asset depreciation and cost information is separate reporting tables.  The Load Reporting Table processes must be run for an Open Transaction before it will be reflect in reports or queries generated off those reporting tables.
  2. You can use these statuses to filter out a subset of Open Transactions for review.
