Capturing and Maintaining Asset Fair Value

Fair Value is a key factor in establishing revaluation of assets. PeopleSoft Asset Management stores this information based on each asset and allows you to add a new fair value (FV) on a regular basis, leave it blank, or let it stay as original cost, depending upon your business requirements. FV is not rolled up to the composite asset from its members. and the FV history cannot be deleted for audit purposes.

FV history cannot be deleted or updated for audit purposes unless you are authorized to edit within Correction Mode. Any changes made in this value after performing revaluation do not affect existing revaluations.

You can load market values in mass using the Excel to CI component interface.

See Adding Assets with the Excel to Component Interface Utility.

This topic lists the page that you use to capture and maintain asset FV.

Fair Value page

Field or Control

Description

Effective Date

Enter the date that the revaluation process will use to find FV at a specified point in time.

Effective Sequence

The system populates this field and is incremented when a new row is inserted with the same effective date.

Fair Value:

Enter the amount to be copied to the Basic Add page where the current fair value is displayed.

Note: If the asset is a capital lease, synchronize the fair value entered from the Lease Express Add page or the Update Lease Information page. The FV entered on the lease page is inserted in the FV table with the transaction date as the effective and appraisal dates. The valuation method is Acquisition Amount. The FV becomes unavailable for edit on the FV table, but you can modify it on the Lease Update page (ASSET_LEASE_01.) The system allows you to add/update other rows. On this page, you can change only the original FV, and it is copied into the FV table. A new row inserted on the FV page will not impact on the FV field on the Lease Update page.

See Understanding Leased Assets.
