From the Financials tab of the Equipment Commissioning Details tab, you can review, edit, or add financial information for a selected equipment asset.
The Edit Financial Information form appears.
Property Type: Select the classification that determine how depreciation values are calculated. Property Types are defined as background data for the Asset Management/Asset Portal/Depreciation process.
Purchase Date: Use this field to document the date you purchase an item. Note that depreciation calculations use the Install Date and not this date to determine depreciation expenses.
Purchase Price: Enter the price you paid for the equipment. Complete this field if you intend to track depreciation.
Purchase Order Code/P.O. Line Number: If needed, these fields can be used to document purchase order information. For Purchase Order Code and P.O. Line Number, you will first need to develop a list of validated values by completing the Purchase Order and Purchase Order Line Items tables. The default schema does not include views that present these tables; you will need to use the New View command to create views to access the PO and PO_LINE tables.
P.O. Number: If needed, this field stores the purchase order number in the Equipment table.
Salvaged?: If you decide to get rid of old equipment, but still want to track it in the database, use this field to document that the equipment is salvaged and no longer being used. Note that even if this value is set to Yes, the program's calculation routines act on this equipment item.
Date Salvaged: If you enter Yes for Salvaged?, complete this field with the date you considered the equipment item salvaged.
Salvage Value: The salvage value of the item. Complete this field if you intend to track depreciation.
Depreciation Years/Depreciation Value: The number of years over which the equipment is depreciated, and the value of the equipment after depreciation is calculated. You can manually enter these value, or the application can enter them if you are using the Asset Management's Depreciation application to calculate depreciation. See Depreciation Concepts.
