   To create a capital asset in Oracle Projects:

1. Create a new capital project and WBS using a project template whose project type is set up for a capital project. Update project and task details if necessary. See: Creating a New Template.

You can also copy an existing capital project. If you copy an existing capital project, assets associated with the existing project (and any attachments to the assets) will be copied to the new capital project. See: Creating a New Project from a Project Template or Existing Project.

2. Update the Transaction Controls, as appropriate, including capitalizability by employee, expenditure category, expenditure type, or non-labor resource. See: Specifying Capitalizability of Capital Project WBS Levels.

3. Collect CIP and expensed costs for your capital project. Make adjustments if necessary.

4. Define CIP assets. See: Defining Assets.

5. Specify grouping levels and grouping level types within the WBS. You can then associate assets with the various grouping levels. See: Assigning Assets to Grouping Levels.

6. Specify the date in service for completed assets in your capital project. See: Placing an Asset in Service.

7. Generate Asset Lines. See: Generating Summary Asset Lines.

8. Run the Interface Assets process. See: Sending Asset Lines to Oracle Assets.
