Creating Asset Records through CSV Import

The Fixed Assets Management SuiteApp lets you migrate the fixed asset data from your previous system to NetSuite using the CSV import feature.

When assets are successfully imported to the NetSuite Fixed Assets Management system, you can view the asset records in Fixed Assets > Lists > Assets. You can view the depreciation history of an asset on the Depreciation History subtab of the asset record.

Important:

Values for assets migrated through CSV import are not automatically posted to the fixed asset general ledger accounts. You must create the journal entries manually to post the values for these assets.

SuiteConsulting Professional Services can help implement and customize NetSuite for your unique business requirements. Contact your NetSuite sales representative for information.
