Viewing Assets
Use the Financial Information windows to view descriptive and financial information for an asset. You can review the transactions, depreciation, and cost history of the asset you select.
To view descriptive and financial information for an asset:
1. Choose Inquiry > Financial Information from the Navigator window.
2. In the Find Assets window, you can use the poplist to Find assets by Detail, Assignment, Invoice, Lease, or Project. You can enter search criteria in one or more alternative regions.
Find by Asset Detail: Enter asset descriptive information, such as Asset Number, Description, and/or Category, or Warranty Number, as your search criteria.
Note: For best performance, query by asset number or tag number since they are unique values.
Find by Assignment: Enter assignment information as your search criteria. If you want to search using the Expense Account, you must enter a Book first.
Find by Source Line: Enter invoice information, such as Supplier and/or Invoice Number, or project information, such as Project Number and/or Task Number, as your search criteria.
Find by Lease: Enter lease information as your search criteria.
3. Choose the Find button to query the asset(s) you want to review.
The View Assets window shows you detail information for the asset(s) you query.

Choose the Project Details button to view detail project information about the asset. The Asset Line Details window includes the following project information for your asset: expenditure type, item date, employee, supplier, quantity, CIP cost, expenditure organization, non-labor resource, and non-labor organization.
6. Choose the Books button to view financial information for the asset.
The View Financial Information window includes the asset you choose in the title, and lists, by depreciation book, financial information for the asset.
