Considerations for Adding Assets

To add acquired assets to Oracle Assets, record the assets using one of the following methods:

• Manual additions

• Mass additions

Manual Additions

Manually add a single asset by entering all required information and any optional information directly into Assets using:

• The Add Assets page (generally used to enter a single asset)

• A spreadsheet (generally used to enter multiple assets)

Mass Additions

Add multiple assets automatically from an external source. Create assets from:

• One or more invoice distribution lines in Oracle Payables

• Construction-in-process (CIP) asset lines in Oracle Projects

• Asset information from another assets system

• Information from any other feeder system using the interface

You must prepare the mass additions to become assets before you post them to Assets.
