In this step, you make copies of the asset classes that were generated from the G/L accounts. When you copy the asset class, it gives you the opportunity to control the default values in the asset class (particularly the depreciation terms) more finely than at the G/L account level.

Example

If you have a G/L account for buildings, for example, you can set up individual asset classes for each type of building depreciation. These asset classes would then contain the depreciation keys and default values for the given type of depreciation.

Requirements

You must have created your asset classes.

Recommendation

Use one asset class to group together assets that use the same G/L account and the same depreciation method. You can have the useful life as a default value in the asset class. However, it does not make sense to create more asset classes just to reflect useful lives of different length, since this would make your asset class catalog unnecessarily large.

Activities

Copy the asset classes you generated from the G/L accounts as needed to meet your requirements Edit -> Copy as.

Note

You can change the depreciation terms and the default values of the asset classes you copied in the next implementation step.
