Derive the Assets Location from the Payables Invoice Ship-to Location

You can derive the asset location from the Payables invoice ship-to location by creating a mapping between the HR location and the ship-to location.

Before you can derive the asset location from the Payables invoice ship-to location you must ensure that:

• The HR location and Assets location both exist.

• There are Assets invoices in Payables with a ship-to location.

To create a mapping between the Assets location and the HR location, use one of these methods:

• Update Fixed Assets Configuration in Spreadsheet setup task.

• Asset Location Export and Import Setup Service.

To derive the Assets location from the Payables invoice ship-to location:

• Create a mapping between the HR location and the ship-to location.

• Click View Mapped Location in the Manage Asset Locations page to view the mapping of the Assets location and the HR location.

• Create Assets Invoices in Payables with the ship-to location.

• Use the Create Mass Additions process to send valid invoice line distributions and ship-to locations from Payables. The Prepare Assets Transaction Data automated process derives the mapped asset location.

• Verify that the Assets location was automatically derived in the Edit Assets page.
