helps to meet global accounting and tax requirements.

Asset Key Flex fields


There are 3 Key Flex fields In Fusion Asset
1. Asset Category Flex field
2. Asset Location Flex Field
3. Asset Key Flex field

- GL have one KFF, KFF purpose is to create and maintain the COA. By using A/C KFF we create COA. We maintain all the info at time of
transaction creation.
- In FA Record transaction to capture into we have to maintain using the KGG available in FA

FA have 3 KFF
- CATAGORY - Category of Assets, major and minor classify. The assets we can maintain based on classification. Calculating depreciation.

1. Fixed Asset Category Flex Field:


 Usage:
 Categorization: This Flex Field allows you to categorize fixed assets according to your organization's specific needs.
You can define different categories, such as machinery, vehicles, office equipment, buildings, or any other
classification relevant to your business.
 Asset Lifecycle: Categorization helps in managing the asset lifecycle. You can track assets from acquisition to
disposal based on their category, making it easier to plan for maintenance, depreciation, and replacement.
 Financial Reporting: It simplifies financial reporting by allowing you to group assets within specific categories for
accounting and reporting purposes.
 Compliance: Some industries have regulatory requirements that mandate the classification of assets, and this Flex
Field ensures compliance with those standards.
2. Fixed Asset Location Flex Field (As described in the previous response):
 Usage: This Flex Field is used to track and manage the physical locations of fixed assets. It provides granularity in asset
location and aids in efficient asset management, reporting, security, and compliance.
3. Asset Key Flex Field:
 Usage:
 Asset Identification: The Asset Key Flex Field can be used to uniquely identify and label each fixed asset. It can
include an alphanumeric code or a combination of characters that make it easier to differentiate between assets.
 Search and Retrieval: The asset key becomes a quick reference for asset lookup and retrieval. You can use it to search
for specific assets in your asset management system.
 Maintenance and Service: Asset keys make it easier for maintenance personnel to identify and work on specific assets,
reducing the risk of errors and ensuring efficient maintenance procedures.
 Audit and Accountability: Asset keys enhance accountability and auditability. When assets are labeled with unique
keys, it's easier to track their movements, changes in ownership, and history.

Fixed Assets - System Controls


- System controls provide information about the structure of your company
- These are controlling features at server level
- It will determine following 4 things
1. Enterprise Name
2. Oldest Date Placed in Service
3. Flex field Structures
4. Automatic Asset Numbering
- Manage system control is one time set up, you can use existing one. Once it done, done.
- Instance select as manage system control.
- Here available FLEXFIELD STRUCTURES only use (Category, Location, and Asset Key)
- If already assign to flex field structure use that, we can’t modify...

Fixed Assets - Fiscal Year


- Define the start date and end date for each of your fiscal years starting from the earliest date placed in service through at least one fiscal
year beyond the current fiscal year.
- By using this asset life list out.
- Calendar like this oldest start and future asset last date. These are called range (1999 – 2030).

> Save and Close

Why You Should Use Fiscal Years:


1. Accurate Financial Reporting: Using fiscal years ensures that your fixed asset transactions, depreciation calculations, and financial
statements are aligned with your organization's fiscal calendar. This alignment is crucial for accurate financial reporting and analysis.
2. Compliance with Accounting Standards: Fiscal year setups are essential for complying with accounting standards such as Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) or International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), which often require reporting on an
annual basis.
3. Tax Compliance: Many tax authorities require organizations to report fixed asset values and depreciation expenses on a fiscal year basis.
Accurate fiscal year setup helps in meeting these tax compliance requirements.
4. Depreciation Scheduling: The depreciation of fixed assets is typically done on a periodic basis, usually aligned with fiscal years. Setting
up fiscal years allows for the proper scheduling and calculation of depreciation expenses.
5. Management and Decision-Making: Accurate fiscal year data helps management make informed decisions regarding asset acquisitions,
disposals, and maintenance, as it provides a clear picture of asset performance over time.
Where You Should Use Fiscal Years:
1. Asset Transactions: When recording asset acquisitions, transfers, and retirements, you should specify the fiscal year and period in which
these transactions occurred. This ensures that the asset's financial impact is attributed to the correct fiscal period.
2. Depreciation Calculations: Depreciation calculations are typically performed on a fiscal year basis. Ensure that the depreciation methods
and rates are aligned with the fiscal year structure to calculate depreciation expenses accurately.
3. Financial Reporting: When generating financial reports within Oracle Fusion Fixed Assets, the system uses the fiscal year structure to
organize and report on fixed asset data. Fiscal years are used as the basis for income statements and balance sheets.
4. Regulatory Compliance: Fiscal year setups are used to ensure compliance with accounting and tax regulations specific to your region.
Oracle Fusion Fixed Assets can be configured to meet the regulatory requirements of your industry and location.
5. Period Close: Fiscal year periods play a role in period closure procedures. By correctly aligning asset transactions with fiscal periods,
you can ensure a smooth closing process and accurate financial records.
6. Analytics and Trend Analysis: Historical fiscal year data is invaluable for trend analysis and long-term planning. It allows you to assess
the performance and value of your fixed assets over time.

Fixed Assets - Depreciation Calendar/ Create Asset/Depreciation/Prorate Calendar


- The depreciation calendar determines the number of accounting periods in your fiscal year
- To calculate depreciating, we use depreciation calendar we have to verify the periods what we create at account calendar. Period name
match with both calendar. Otherwise depreciation can't transfer to GL.
- Why do we need FA calendar?
- In FA keep open one period only. But in GL more than one.
- Period status Open/close only. If you open another, close current one. Because of this we need FA calendar.

1. Setting up Depreciation Periods:


 The Depreciation Calendar is used to define and set up depreciation periods for your assets. These periods can be based on various
factors, including fiscal years, calendar months, or custom periods.
2. Accurate Depreciation Calculation:
 The primary purpose of the Depreciation Calendar is to ensure that the depreciation of fixed assets is accurately calculated in accordance
with accounting standards and organizational policies. It helps in spreading the cost of an asset over its useful life.
3. Compliance and Reporting:
 By using the Depreciation Calendar, organizations can ensure compliance with accounting regulations and standards, such as Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) or International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). This is crucial for accurate financial
reporting.
4. Aligning with Fiscal and Reporting Periods:
 The Depreciation Calendar allows organizations to align asset depreciation with their fiscal and reporting periods. This ensures that
depreciation expenses are recognized in the correct periods for financial statements and tax reporting.
5. Forecasting and Budgeting:
 Having accurate depreciation schedules through the Depreciation Calendar helps organizations in forecasting future depreciation
expenses. This information is useful for budgeting and financial planning.
6. Asset Tracking and Maintenance:
 The Depreciation Calendar can also be used to keep track of maintenance and service schedules for fixed assets. It helps in planning
maintenance activities and cost allocation.
7. Depreciation Methods:
 The Depreciation Calendar allows organizations to specify different depreciation methods for various assets, such as straight-line,
declining balance, or units-of-production. This flexibility ensures that depreciation is calculated based on the chosen method.
8. Period-End Closing:
 The Depreciation Calendar is essential for period-end closing processes. It helps in closing depreciation books and generating accounting
entries for each period, ensuring that financial records are up-to-date and accurate.

Fixed Assets - Prorate calendar


- Oracle Fusion Assets uses prorate and retirement conventions to determine how much depreciation to take in the first and last year of an
asset's life.
- Which date to calculate depreciation. Like daily, monthly calculate.
- If we start using asset from today, do we calculate depreciation for monthly or weekly? These all decide by using this
- How we exactly calculate the depreciation define by this.

2/1/22 2/28/22 2/28/22
1/1/22 1/31/22 1/31/22
> Save and Close

1. Incorrect Proration Method:


 Error: Using the wrong proration method, such as not prorating depreciation at all or using an inappropriate method for the
asset type.
 Solution: Review the asset's characteristics and ensure that the correct proration method is selected in the prorate calendar.
This may involve straight-line proration or other methods like monthly or daily.
2. Incorrect Calendar Setup:
 Error: Creating a prorate calendar with incorrect periods or dates, causing depreciation to be calculated inaccurately.
 Solution: Double-check the prorate calendar setup to ensure the periods align with your organization's fiscal periods. Make
corrections as needed.
3. Miscalculated Proration Periods:
 Error: Miscalculating the number of days or months for proration, leading to inaccurate depreciation expenses.
 Solution: Carefully calculate the proration periods and ensure that they match the asset's in-service or disposal dates. Adjust the
calendar or asset dates as necessary.
4. Missing Prorate Calendar Assignment:
 Error: Failing to assign the correct prorate calendar to assets when they are added or disposed of, resulting in incorrect
depreciation calculations.
 Solution: Ensure that the appropriate prorate calendar is assigned to each asset at the time of acquisition or retirement. This
can be done during the asset creation process.
5. Fiscal Year Misalignment:
 Error: Using a prorate calendar that does not align with the organization's fiscal year, causing depreciation to be prorated
incorrectly.
 Solution: Use prorate calendars that match the organization's fiscal year. Make sure the prorate calendar's periods align with
your fiscal periods.

Fixed Assets - Depreciation Methods


- Depreciate assets to decrease the value of an asset due to use.
- There are 5 types of methods in oracle.
1. Flat rate
2. Calculated
3. Production
4. Table
5. Formula

1. Flat rate
- In this method life of the asset depends on depreciation rate..
Formula:- Depreciation=Asset cost - Salvage value(Scrape Value) * Depreciation rate(yearly)
Rule for Scrape value:
1. Asset Cost=Accumulated depreciation + Salvage Value
2. Any difference in first point will be considered as Capital Gain or Capital Loss
3. Accumulated depreciation nothing but a Total depreciation of asset used period
4. Net Book Value {NBV\= Current Asset Cost - Accumulated depreciation

Fixed Assets - Run Depreciation


- It is nothing but a reducing the asset value as per the usage
- You can run depreciating for entire book level.
- You cannot run the depreciation for specific asset.
- There are two modes to run the depreciation
- Draft Mode - verify everything, go for final mode. In current period system will calculate depreciation. System won't close current period.
- Final Mode - Actual depreciation, close current period, open next period.

Step 1:- Run Depreciation

Common Depreciation Errors:


1. No Eligible Assets for Depreciation:
 Impact: The depreciation process doesn't run, causing financial statements to lack accurate asset valuation.
 Solution: Review asset eligibility criteria, such as in-service dates, useful life, and depreciation methods. Ensure assets are
assigned to the correct category and depreciation book.
2. No Depreciation Calendar Assigned:
 Impact: Depreciation cannot be calculated without a valid depreciation calendar.
 Solution: Ensure each asset is assigned to a depreciation calendar with defined periods.
3. Invalid Depreciation Method:
 Impact: Depreciation calculations fail due to incorrect or missing depreciation methods.
 Solution: Verify that assets have appropriate depreciation methods assigned, and the methods are correctly configured.
4. Accounting Period Closed:
 Impact: Closed accounting periods prevent depreciation calculations.
 Solution: Ensure the accounting period is open. If necessary, reopen the period to perform depreciation.
5. Data Integrity Errors:
 Impact: Data discrepancies or inconsistencies hinder depreciation calculations.
 Solution: Investigate and correct data integrity issues within assets, categories, and books.
6. Custom Validation Rules Fail:
 Impact: Custom validation rules prevent the depreciation process.
 Solution: Review and update custom validation rules as needed, or ensure that asset data complies with these rules.
7. Asset Not In Service:
 Impact: Assets must be in-service for depreciation, and errors arise if they are not marked as such.
 Solution: Set the in-service date for assets that are in service, ensuring the date is accurate.

Fixed Assets - Asset Book – Corporate Book – Tax Book -Mass Copy
- Ledger have a multiple Asset books, but asset books have only

FA_ADDITIONS_B.
 Solution: Use SQL to check the integrity of data during migration and identify issues. Customized queries will be required based
on your specific migration process and data.

Fixed Assets - Construction-In-Process (CIP)


• A construction-in-process (CIP) asset is an asset you construct over a period of time. Since a CIP asset is not yet in use, it does not depreciate
and is only in the corporate book.
• The asset key is a set of key identifying information, such as project name and project number, that you define for each CIP asset. Use the
asset key to group and track your CIP assets with common key words so you can find them easily for inquiry or transactions.
• Assets which are in construction is called a CIP Asset
• First create CIP asset later convert to CIP Capitalization.
• You need to create CIP account to create.

/ System create CIP Asset/
/ After complete construction, convert to capitalize /
Step 2:- Capitalize the CIP asset
• You capitalize CIP assets when you are ready to place them in service. You can capitalize or reverse capitalize a single asset or a group of
assets.
• When you capitalize an asset, Oracle Assets changes the asset type from CIP to Capitalized, changes the date placed in service to the date you
enter, sets the cost to the sum of all source lines for the asset, and re-defaults the depreciation rules from the asset category. Oracle Assets
creates an Addition transaction for an asset you added in a prior period or changes the CIP Addition transaction to an Addition for an
asset you added in the current period.
• When you reverse a capitalization, Oracle Assets changes the asset type from Capitalized back to CIP and leaves the date placed in service
unchanged. It changes the Addition transaction to an Addition/Void for an asset you added in a prior period or changes the Addition
transaction to a CIP Addition for an asset you added in the current period. It also creates a CIP Reverse transaction for assets you
capitalized in a prior period.

1. Where to use it: Oracle Fusion Fixed Assets is used in finance and accounting departments of organizations to manage tangible and
intangible assets. CIP assets are specifically used to account for costs associated with assets under construction. They are part of the
larger fixed asset management framework within the application.
2. Why to use it: CIP assets are used to accurately account for and track costs incurred during the construction phase of assets that are not
yet in service. This is important for:
 Financial Accuracy: To ensure that construction costs are accurately recorded in financial statements.
 Compliance: To adhere to accounting standards and regulatory requirements.
 Asset Lifecycle Management: To track asset development from the construction phase until they are ready for use.
3. Whom can access: Access to CIP assets and Oracle Fusion Fixed Assets is typically restricted to users with appropriate roles and
permissions, such as accountants, financial analysts, project managers, and asset managers. Access control is implemented using role-
based security.
4. What is CIP Asset: In the context of Oracle Fusion Fixed Assets, a CIP asset represents the costs associated with assets that are under
construction. It's an accounting category that allows organizations to track and capitalize construction costs until the assets are completed
and placed into service. CIP assets are not depreciated until they are ready for use.
5. When do it need: CIP assets are needed when an organization has assets under construction. You use CIP assets when you want to:
 Accurately account for and track costs incurred during the construction phase.
 Capitalize construction costs and avoid premature depreciation.
 Maintain compliance with accounting standards and regulatory requirements.
6. How it works:
 Creation: Users create CIP asset records in Oracle Fusion Fixed Assets to represent assets under construction.
 Cost Tracking: Costs incurred during the construction phase are associated with CIP assets. These costs can include materials,
labour, equipment, and other expenses.
 Capitalization: The system ensures that these costs are capitalized and not depreciated until the assets are ready for use.
 Conversion: When the construction is complete, CIP assets are typically converted to active assets, and depreciation begins.

1. Missing or Incomplete Invoices:


Problem: Sometimes, invoices may be missing or incomplete, making it challenging to associate costs with CIP assets.
Solution: Work with the procurement or accounts payable team to ensure that invoices are complete and available. Only associate
invoices with CIP assets when you have all the required details.
2. Approval Delays:
Problem: Delays in the approval process can hinder the progression of CIP assets to the capitalization stage.
Solution: Communicate with relevant stakeholders to expedite the approval process. Implement workflow automation or notifications to
streamline approvals.
3. Data Security and Permissions:
Problem: Insufficient permissions can limit your ability to create, modify, or associate CIP assets and invoices.
Solution: Consult your system administrator to ensure that you have the necessary permissions to perform the required tasks. If additional
access is needed, request appropriate permissions.
4. Configuration Issues:
Problem: If Oracle Fusion is not properly configured for your organization's specific needs, it can lead to inconsistencies and errors.
Solution: Work closely with your organization's Oracle Fusion administrators and consultants to configure the system correctly. This may
involve setting up asset categories, depreciation methods, and other parameters to align with your business processes.

Effects of Reclassification:

1. Category and Location Change: Reclassification allows you to change an asset's category, location, or other attributes, ensuring that
asset records align with the new information.
2. Depreciation Adjustment: Reclassification may impact depreciation calculations, including changes in depreciation methods, rates, and
useful life.
3. Accounting Entries: Changes in categories or locations can trigger accounting entries to reflect the reclassification in financial
statements and reports.
4. Compliance and Audit Trail: Maintains compliance with accounting standards and internal policies, and an audit trail tracks who made
the reclassification and when.

Common Errors and Solutions:

1. Error: Incorrect Asset Category or Location:


 Solution: Verify that the reclassification details are accurate, and the new category or location aligns with the asset's use.
Review the reclassification transaction to ensure correct data entry.
2. Error: Depreciation Errors:
 Solution: Check the asset's depreciation method, rate, and useful life after reclassification. Ensure they align with the new
category. Correct any discrepancies to ensure accurate depreciation calculations.
3. Error: Missing Accounting Entries:
 Solution: If the reclassification did not trigger accounting entries, check your accounting rules and setup. Review the
reclassification transaction to ensure proper accounting entries are generated.
4. Error: Tax Implications Not Considered:
 Solution: Before reclassifying assets, consult with your tax experts to assess any tax implications. Ensure that the
reclassification complies with tax regulations and accounting standards.
5. Error: Incomplete or Incorrect Data Entry:
 Solution: Double-check the details entered during reclassification. Ensure all relevant fields are accurately populated to avoid
data entry errors.
6. Error: Workflow and Approval Issues:
 Solution: If reclassification requires approvals, ensure that the workflow is correctly configured and that the necessary
approvals are obtained.
7. Error: Documentation and User Training:
 Solution: Update asset documentation and provide user training to inform stakeholders about the reclassification and the
changes in asset records.
8. Error: Data Integrity Issues:
 Solution: If you encounter data integrity problems during reclassification, consider data validation and cleansing processes
before initiating the reclassification.
9. Error: Historical Data Mismatch:
 Solution: When reclassifying historical assets, verify that historical accounting records are accurately represented in the
reclassified data.
10. Error: Incomplete Audit Trail:
 Solution: Ensure that the system is configured to maintain a complete audit trail of reclassification transactions for
transparency and compliance.

Fixed Assets - Retirement


- Removing asset form services is called a retirement.

• Partial retirements of CIP assets: not allowed.

- There are three retirement types


1. Unit retirement: Retire assets by unit, either all units or some units of a multiple-unit asset. The retirement process automatically
calculates the cost retired for each unit retired.
2. Cost retirement: Retire assets by cost. The units remain unchanged and the retirement process spreads the retired cost evenly among
the units.
3. Source line retirement: Retire an asset that was imported as a source line by retiring the asset cost based on the source line.
