Accounting Entries – Fixed Assets

By Jag - September 28, 2012
In this article, we will cover accounting entries made by Oracle Fixed Asset module (FA). First we will cover some of the natural accounts that are setup and then we will cover what entries are made.
In the Assets module, following are some of the accounts we setup. Some accounts (like Clearing) are used by other modules as well.
Note: All of these accounts are natural accounts, and are created as flexfield values for the natural account (GL account) segment.
