I create a new asset, I need to purchase it using a purchase invoice, but the Asset code does not appear on the purchase invoice, any advice
Enter it in the description.
I do it , but the asset cost still zero
Have you read this Guide: Purchase fixed assets | Manager?
Under account, choose the main category of your fixed asset >> specific fixed asset
i.e. Office Equipment >> Fuji Xerox B9100
When you have a business expense you have to decide if you want to
-
claim it as a business expense it that year. If so on the invoice select a profit & loss expense account
-
or capitalise the cost. If so on the invoice select a balance sheet account such as: Fixed assets → the asset account you have created.
Notes
-
the fixed asset control account can be customised if so it would be accessed via your custom control account.
-
For “cash purchases” an identical thing can be done with a “Payment” as the above “Purchase invoice” example.
