Capital Asset Builder GL Transactions

>>>>

In KFS, when a user enters a moveable capital asset object code into a Cash Receipt, Distribution of Income and Expenses, General Error Correction, Internal Billing, Service Billing, or Procurement Card document, the system allows the user to capitalize the expense and/or modify information about the asset. Then the system collects the data, routes the document for required approvals, and updates the affected accounts in the General Ledger. After the transaction has been approved and the General Ledger has been updated, nightly processes collect the transactions and make them available for further processing via the Capital Asset Builder GL Transactions screen. At this point, authorized users use the CAB GL Transaction screen to retrieve the associated documents and apply or add payments for these moveable capital assets.

When you select Capital Asset Builder GL Transactions from the menu, the system displays the CAB General Ledger Entry Lookup screen.

Here you may enter information into any combination of search fields in order to retrieve the G/L entries you want to work with.
