This function is used to automatically create assets from the grouping of expenses.
It is based on a Grouping of expenses code whose setup specifies criteria for selecting and grouping the concerned expenses.

This processing is a single-company processing.

SEEREFERTTO A quite similar but unit processing for creating assets via expense capitalization is available from the Asset management function.
SEEREFERTTO See the documentation on Capitalization of expenses.

Screen management

This function is composed of:

- a header that is used to specify the processing options and to choose the company and the financial site(s) to which the expenses to be processed belong,

- the Parameters tab used to enter the reference of the grouping code on which the process is based,

- the Extended selection tab used to select the expenses to be processed.

Header

The header contains the process options and is used to select the company as well as the site(s) in which the expenses to be processed are referenced.

Tab Parameter definition

Only the Grouping code defined in the setups of the asset management must be entered.

Tab Extended selection

This tab is used to enter the expense selection criteria. This selection is applied in addition to the one defined at the level of the setup of the Grouping of expensescode.

It contains five lines, each of them used to enter a criterion, with each criterion being linked to the next one by one of the following logical operators: And, Or.

The process for selection criteria entry is as follows:

1/ Enter, or select from the list obtained by a right click, the field in the LAYOUTFAS expense table, which contains the information to which the selection is applied.

2/ Then select the operator: Any, Equal, Different, Greater than or equal, Less than, Lessthan or equal, Like.
The Like operator is valid only for numeric fields. It makes it possible to use wild card characters.

3/ Enter a value. The list of possible values for the chosen field can be obtained with a right click when these values are contained in a local menu or in a table (miscellaneous table, common table, accounting table, etc.).

The user can also:

- enter the criteria as an Adonix expression; the formulas of this type can be entered by right-clicking the fields in the LAYOUTFAS expense table,

- enter a selection formula using the formula editor.

The selection options are the same as those used in the standard Advanced selection function.

Processing description

  • Expense selection
     
    The selected expenses are those not already linked to assets and meeting the selection criteria entered at the level of the grouping code setup, and completed when necessary, with the criteria entered in this function.
  • Expense grouping by application of:
    - implicit grouping criteria: company, financial site and activity sector,
    - setup criteria.

  • Main expense determination:
    - according to the criterion entered at the level of the grouping code.
  • Field loading rules for the asset:
     
    - The rules are the same as for a unit processing of asset creation by expense grouping and are specified in the documentation Capitalization of expenses (LOFLDAB).
     
    - The asset entry origin automatically takes the following value: "Expense grouping".
