Creating PeopleSoft Asset Management Business Units

Location

Select a location for this business unit. Locations available are defined on the location page table.

Last Asset ID Used

The last asset ID used displays here or the value is zero by default. To increment automatically from some other starting point, enter your starting point into the Last Asset ID Used field and click the Reset button. If there are no assets for this business unit, this will reset the last asset ID to zero. The Next value displays on the Asset Basic Add, Operational Asset Definition or Express Add pages when you use automatic numbering of asset ID. When the record is saved, the assigned asset ID displays and the value is incremented on this page.

Default Book

Select the book that is used by default when you enter assets. (This book is required for subsequent processing.)

Fed Book (federal book)

Select the book to calculate the federal tax.

AMT Book (alternative minimum tax book)

Select the book to calculate the alternate minimum tax.

ACE Book (adjusted current earnings book)

Select the book to calculate the adjusted current earnings.

CAP Book (capital acquisition planning book)

Select the book used for capital acquisition planning (CAP).

Lease Book

Select the book where leased assets are primarily recorded.

Suspense Account and Alt Acct (alternate account)

Enter the translate account and alternate account here. If you have any transactions in a foreign currency within this business unit and want to enable the feature to translate currencies. If you do not have transactions outside of your local currency, you do not need to define these values.

See Defining Journal Processing Options for a Business Unit.

Keep all books in synch

Select this check box to keep all adjustments synchronized. Deselecting this check box enables you to create adjusting entries to affect particular books while excluding others.

If you select this option in conjunction with a business unit that is also enabled for impairment and revaluation processing, you will have an option to create zero impairment and revaluation costs for other books. This occurs when working in the Impairment Worksheet page, the Revaluation Worksheet page, or the batch run control page and you select the Copy To Other Books check box.

Default tag # from asset ID (default tag number from asset ID)

Select this check box to use the same number for the tag as the assigned asset ID.

Allow duplicate tag numbers

Select this check box when you are processing physical inventory. This enables you to take physical inventory and process assets that may have the same tag number.

Joint Venture Unit

Select if this is a joint venture business unit.

Use JV Participant Bk Profile (use joint venture participant book profile)

Select this option for participant level. Joint venture participant business units are governed by the book for the participant level business unit or by the book for the overall joint venture business unit. You can use this feature to maintain joint venture participant business units with separate profiles that enable different depreciation methods, conventions, calculation types, and so on, as required.

Use Parent-Child Defaulting

Select to enable automatic parent-child inheritance processing for this business unit. For example, when you create a child asset and you want it to inherit the tag or department number from the parent asset (as specified on the Profile Child Asset Inheritance page), select this check box. For more responsive performance of Express Add, Basic Add, and Transaction Loader processes, deselect this check box. General parent-child asset processing is still enabled.

Auto-Retire Fully Depr Assets (automatically retire fully depreciated assets)

Select to enable automatic retirement of fully depreciated assets for this business unit. You must also enable the option at the book level.

Reversal Reason Required

Select this option to require that users select a transaction reversal reason when reversing transactions.

See Transaction Reversal Page

Use Add Conv. for all TXNs (use add convention for all transactions)

Select this option to inherit the same convention used when you added an asset for any new transaction.

Use Cap Threshold (use capitalization threshold)

Select to enable Capitalization Threshold processing at the business unit level. You must also enable the Capitalization Threshold feature at the system level from Installation Options.

See Capitalization Thresholds Page.

Use ARO (asset retirement obligation)

Select this option to enable asset retirement obligation (ARO) processing for the asset business unit. Then, upon creating an asset, you designate it as an ARO-eligible asset within the Basic Add component.

ARO functionality provides asset retirement obligation measurement and reporting in compliance with Financial Accounting Standards for leased assets, group assets, and asset impairment. You can enable ARO processing at the asset profile level, the business unit level, and the asset level.

When you select this option, the following fields appear:

• US GAAP Standards

• IFRS Standards

• Include ARC in Impairment Test

• ARO Prefix

• Last ARO ID

You can select either US GAAP Standards or IFRS Standards, but not both—all ARO assets within the business unit must adhere to the same processing method.

US GAAP Standards (U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles)

Select this option to process ARO using Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

If you select this option, no adjustments are made to the risk-adjusted rate over the life of the ARO asset; the obligation is adjusted only for changes in the amount or timing of cash flows (the obligation continues to be measured using the rate when the decommissioning obligation was incurred).

IFRS Standards (International Financial Reporting Standards)

Select this option to process ARO using International Financial Reporting Standards.

If you select this option, the risk-adjusted rate is used at the outset, but the rate is adjusted at each reporting date thereafter (the decommissioning obligation is re-measured each reporting period giving consideration to changes in the amount or timing of cash flows and changes in the discount rate).

Include ARC in Impairment Test (include asset retirement cost in impairment test)

Select this check box to include the asset retirement cost in the impairment process calculation.

This option appears if you have selected the Use ARO field.

ARO Prefix (asset retirement obligation prefix)

Enter a prefix to be used for accounting entries that are related to asset retirement obligations. The prefix is for the asset ID that will be created to store the ARO Information (ARO-eligible asset).

Last ARO Id (last asset retirement obligation Id)

Specify the numerical value after which the count should be added for each subsequent ARO ID. This works in combination with the prefix. Suppose the prefix is “ARO”, when you start using the feature, the Last ARO Id will be zero. Since Asset ID has 8 characters, the first ARO created will be ARO00001.

Asset Acquisition Info

Select to include information derived from the Asset Acquisition Detail (ASSET_ACQ_DETAIL) page and links (ASSET_ACQ_DET_AP, ASSET_ACQ_DET_VAT).

Asset Attributes Info

Select to include information derived from the Asset Location/Comments/Attributes (ASSET_IMAGE) page.

Asset Component History

Select to include asset component history (AM_AST_COMP_HIST) information.

Asset Attribute Groups Info

Select to include asset attribute groups (AM_ASSET_SD) information.

Auto Increment Open Trans ID (automatically increment open transaction ID)

If you want to process a large number of transactions as a group, you should deselect the Auto Increment Open Trans ID check box. For example, you enter 300 new computers into PeopleSoft Asset Management, and rather than process depreciation and distribution in 300 separate requests, you want to process all in a single request. To do so, establish an open transaction ID that identifies a single processing request for all 300 computers that you entered. In this case, you should deselect the Auto Increment Open Trans ID check box.

Open Trans ID (open transaction ID)

The Open Trans ID field helps you keep track of open transaction processing status. You can enter a beginning open trans ID, or you can have PeopleSoft Asset Management assign it. You can specify that PeopleSoft Asset Management automatically increment the ID value each time a transaction is added to the open transaction table by selecting Auto Increment Open Trans ID. The next processing request that you enter is automatically assigned a number that is one greater than the last assigned value. Subsequent open transaction ID numbers will be incremented by one.

Copy Values to New Rows

If you are inserting a row for a VAT driver key, select this check box to copy all the VAT defaults from the previous row to the new row. Otherwise, all VAT default fields for the new row will be blank.

VAT Reporting Country

Select the VAT reporting country or countries for which you are defining VAT defaults. For service VAT treatment defaults, defaults are obtained for the supplier's location country. PeopleSoft Asset Management does not use VAT for services, only goods.

Defaulting State

As applicable, enter the state for which you want to define defaulting values. (Optional depending on VAT Country)

Copy From Search Criteria

Enter the criteria on which you want to search. When copying defaults for the PeopleSoft Asset Management business unit driver, you can search by business unit, VAT reporting country, and defaulting state.

Search

Select to retrieve the results based on the criteria entered. The results display in the Copy From Results group box.

Copy From Results

In the Copy From Results group box, select the link for any of the results returned to view the details of the VAT setup from which to copy on the Copy VAT Defaults Setup page. Once you have viewed the details, you can select Copy to copy the VAT setup. The system returns you to the VAT Defaults Setup page with the copied fields.

Or you can select the appropriate option for any of the results returned and select Copy to copy from the selected row. The system returns you to the VAT Defaults Setup page with the copied fields.

VAT Applicable

Select the appropriate VAT status.

Values are:

Exempt (not subject to VAT)

Outside of Scope of VAT

Taxable

Goods Declaration Point

Select when you want VAT transaction information for goods to be recognized for reporting purposes. Values are:

At Accounting Date: VAT is recognized at the accounting date.

At Delivery Time: VAT is recognized at time of delivery.

At Invoice Time: VAT is recognized at time of invoice.

At Payment Time: VAT is recognized at time of payment.

Calculation Type

Select the type of calculation you want the system to use. Values are:

Exclusive: VAT is calculated on top of the entered transaction amount, because it excludes any VAT.

Inclusive: VAT is calculated from within the entered transaction amount, because it already includes the VAT.

(UK) Domestic Reverse Charge

Select Yes to enable the domestic reverse charge default at the business unit level. This default indicates that the goods on transaction lines associated with the VAT Driver are domestic reverse charge goods.

See Establishing VAT Defaults.

Taxable Goods Sales

Select the VAT code to be used for taxable sales within this VAT reporting country

Domestic Reverse Charge Sales

Select the transaction type default to be used for domestic reverse charge sales.

See Establishing VAT Defaults.

Domestic Goods Sales

Sale of goods within the same country.

EU Goods Distance Sales (European Union goods distance sales)

Sale of goods between European Union (EU) countries in which the supplier is registered in an EU country and the purchaser is not registered in an EU country. The VAT rate charged is the rate applicable in the supplier's country.

EU Goods Sales (European Union goods sales)

Sale of goods within the European Union.

EU Sales, Simplification

This treatment is used for the transaction between an intermediary and the purchaser in cases when there is a sale of goods between European Union (EU) countries involving three parties: the purchaser, an intermediary (bill-from) supplier, and the actual goods supplier. Each party is located in a different EU country and registered in his own country, and not in either of the other two countries. The only difference between this VAT treatment and that applied to normal EU sales is that the supplier is required to print a different message on the invoice referencing the statute that applies to triangulation, rather than the one that references the statute for normal EU sales.

Exempt

Not subject to VAT.

Exonerated

Subject to exoneration from VAT.

Goods Exports

Export sales of goods.

Out of Scope

Outside of the scope of VAT.

Suspended

Subject to suspension of VAT.

Currency

Displays the default currency for this business unit.

Rate Type

Select the currency exchange rate.

See Understanding Foreign Currency Processing.

Calendar

Select the accounting period calendar for this book and business units. General Ledger supports multiple calendars, so you can keep separate calendars for actual accounting activity, for budget and forecast activity, and for special reporting or transitional needs. For example, you can easily manage a conversion to different accounting periods or to a new fiscal year by maintaining two calendars. However, only one calendar can be active for a ledger group at a given time. A book must use the same calendar as the ledger.

See Understanding Accounting Calendars Based on Open and Close Periods.

Capitalize Limit, Amount, and Limit Code

Define these limits either by selecting Amount and entering a minimum, or by selecting Table Lim and selecting a Cost Limit Code. If you select Amount, you cannot add an asset with a cost that is less than the specified limit. If you select Table Lim, you may encounter an error or a warning, based on the actions that you set up in the Capitalization Limit table, when you try to add assets below the amounts in the table.

See Capitalization Limits Page.

Lease Cap Min (lease capitalization minimum)

Define the lease cap as a minimum cost of the asset lease. (When you enter a leased asset with total cost below the lease cap, you will receive an error.)

Create Accounting Entries

Select this check box to make the accounting entry options available for selection.

Retirements by Disposal Code

Select the check box to enable retirement of assets based upon disposal code. The Transaction Code field on the Retirement page will be populated with the appropriate disposal code.

See Understanding Asset Retirement Using the Disposal Worksheet.

Translate Gain/Loss

If the ledger specified is a translate ledger, this check box appears. When you process accounting entries (AM_AMAEDIST), the gain or loss amount that is the result of a currency exchange transaction is converted from the primary book to the translate book.

GL Business Unit

The General Ledger business unit associated with this book displays here.

Ledger Group, Budget Ledger Group, Ledger, and Budget Ledger

A ledger is a set of posted balances that represents a set of books for a business unit. Ledger templates and detail ledgers can be added to the appropriate ledger group. A ledger group can have one primary ledger and zero to nine secondary ledgers. Each ledger within the ledger group shares a common physical structure based on the ledger template, as well as unique characteristics (such as its own base currency).

The Ledger Group andBudget Ledger Group fields for PeopleSoft Asset Management enable you to associate a ledger or ledger group to this business unit. In sync accounting entries are a group of accounting entries for one transaction that the system distributes to different ledgers. In conjunction with the Keep all books in sync option, you define how a transaction is posted. If the Keep all books in sync option is selected, then one transaction will post to all ledgers in the group. If the Keep all books in sync option is deselected, the system posts transactions only to those ledgers with transaction entries. One book will post to one ledger, but you can set up other books to point to the other ledgers in the group.

If you will be generating budget accounting entries, specify the Budget Ledger Group and Budget Ledger to which you want to post them. If you leave ledger and budget ledger fields blank, the accounting entries will be made to the primary ledger.

See Understanding Ledgers.

Book Code Distrib. Grp (book code distribution group)

If the Book Code option is activated from the Installation Options page, this field appears. The book code is an Account attribute and a balancing ChartField. You can use book codes to simultaneously generate sets of entries to record related transactions according to multiple GAAPs for the same business unit in the same ledger.

The book code distribution group defines a set of book codes to be used when distributing accounting entries for multiple GAAPs within one book. Using the book code distribution group restricts the duplication of accounting entries being passed to General Ledger. The book code distribution group value is defined on the Book Code Distribution Group page.

Select from the available book code distribution groups defined for your organization.
