Parameter Name | Data Item | Data Type | Req/Opt | I/O/Both |
szCompany | CO | char | OPT | INPUT |
A code that identifies a specific organization, fund, or other reporting entity. The company code must already exist in the Company
Constants table (F0010) and must identify a reporting entity that has a complete balance sheet. At this level, you can have intercompany
transactions.
Note: You can use company 00000 for default values such as dates and automatic accounting instructions. You cannot use company 00000
for transaction entries.
|
szAssetCostAcctObjectD | DAOB | char | OPT | INPUT |
A number that indicates the general ledger account (object number) used to record a fixed asset's acquisition cost. Within each company,
you define default coding instructions for asset cost accounts. Then, based on these default codes, when you set up a new asset, the system
automatically assigns:
o Major and subclass codes
o G/L accounts for depreciation and revenue
o Depreciation books
|
szAssetAcctSubsidiaryDe | DASB | char | OPT | INPUT |
The subsidiary account used in conjunction with the asset cost account. |
szLedgerType | LT | char | OPT | OUTPUT |
A user defined code (09/LT) that specifies the type of ledger, such as AA (Actual Amounts), BA (Budget Amount), or AU (Actual Units). You
can set up multiple, concurrent accounting ledgers within the general ledger to establish an audit trail for all transactions.
|
szDepreciationMethod | ADM | char | OPT | OUTPUT |
The user defined code (12/DM) that indicates the method of depreciation for the specified book. In addition to any user defined
depreciation methods that you set up for your company, the following standard depreciation methods are available in the Fixed Assets system:
00
No
Depreciation Method Used
01
Straight Line Depreciation
02
Sum of the Year's Digits
03
125% Declining Bal w/ Cross Ovr
04
150% Declining
Bal w/ Cross Ovr
05
200% Declining Bal w/ Cross Ovr
06
Fixed % on Declining Balance
07
ACRS Standard Depreciation
08

10
MACRS Luxury Cars
11
Fixed % Luxury Cars
12

13

14
ACRS Alternate Real Property
15
Fixed % on Cost
16
Fixed % on Declining Bal w/ Cross Ovr
17
AMT Luxury Cars
18
ACE Luxury Cars Note: Any additional depreciation methods that you create for your organization must have an alpha code. |
mnLifeMonths | ADLM | MATH_NUMERIC | OPT | OUTPUT |
The life of an asset in months or periods. The system uses months or periods only to express the life of an asset. For example, if your
company uses a 12 month calendar, then a five year ACRS asset has a 60 month life. If your company uses a 13 month calendar, then a five year
ACRS asset has a 65 month life, and so on. You must specify a life month value for all user defined depreciation methods and for all
standard depreciation methods.
|
cDepreciationInformation | ITAC | char | OPT | OUTPUT |
A code for additional depreciation information. This code is used for investment tax credit (ITC) and averaging conventions. The system
validates the code you enter in this field against user defined code table (12/AC).
Valid codes are:
A
Actual Depreciation Start
F
First-half/2nd-half convention
H
Half-Year
M
Mid-Month Convention
N
1st Day of Next Period
P
Middle of Period
Q
Mid-Quarter Convention
R
1st Day of
Next Year
S
1st Actual/2nd Period Start
Y
Mid-Year Convention
W
Whole Year Convention
0
No ITC Taken
1
Three Year Method (3 1/3%)
2
Five Year Method (6 2/3%)
3
Seven Year Method (10%)
4
ACRS w/ Basis Reduction - 10% ITC
5
ACRS w/o Basis Reduction
Note: Numeric
codes apply to standard depreciation methods only. To determine the date for F (First-half/Second-half), use the following guidelines:
o If the
asset was placed in service in the first half of the year, then the adjusted depreciation start date is the first day of the year.
o If the asset was
placed in service in the second half of the year, then the adjusted depreciation start date is the first day of the succeeding year.
o The first half
of the year expires at the close of the last day of the calendar month that is closest to the middle of the tax year.
o The second half of the year
begins the day after the expiration of the first half of the tax year. |
cCompMethodItdOrRem | DIR1 | char | OPT | OUTPUT |
A code that specifies the method that the system uses to calculate depreciation based on the depreciation method you specify. Valid
values are:
C
Current year to date. Calculates only the current year's depreciation.
I
Inception to date. Recalculates the entire depreciation amount
from the start date through the current year. Prior year depreciation is then subtracted to determine current year depreciation. This method
results in a one-time current period correction for any errors in prior period depreciation.
F
Inception to date - first rule. Calculates inception to
date (rule I) for the first rule (if there are two rules) and calculates current year to date (rule C) for the second rule.
P
Current period. Calculates
depreciation for the current period and then extrapolates the annual amount based on the cumulative percentage from the period pattern and
year-to-date posting. Any depreciation calculated for the current period is subtracted.
R
Remaining months. Depreciates the net book value
as of the beginning of the current tax year over the remaining life of the asset. This results in the amortization of prior period calculation errors
over the remaining life of the asset.
|
mnMethod | ADMP | MATH_NUMERIC | OPT | OUTPUT |
A number that specifies what percentage you want the system to use when calculating depreciation. You must use whole numbers. For
example, enter 10 for 10%. The system uses a percentage when computing the following methods of depreciation:
06
Fixed % on Declining
Balance. (This method of depreciation is commonly used by Canadian and utility companies.)
11
Fixed % Luxury Car - Foreign.
15
Fixed % of
Cost.
16
Fixed % on Declining Balance to Cross-Over.
The system also uses this field to compute any user defined depreciation method in which
you specify a percentage.
|
szScheduleMethod9 | ADSN | char | OPT | OUTPUT |
The alphanumeric code you assign to a units of production schedule. You must set up the schedules you want to use for method 09 (Units
of Production Depreciation) in advance on the Units of Production Schedule form. |
cErrorFlag | EV01 | char | OPT | OUTPUT |
An option that specifies the type of processing for an event.
|
szLastLedgerType | LT | char | OPT | INPUT |
A user defined code (09/LT) that specifies the type of ledger, such as AA (Actual Amounts), BA (Budget Amount), or AU (Actual Units). You
can set up multiple, concurrent accounting ledgers within the general ledger to establish an audit trail for all transactions.
