Write-Offs of Advances

The purpose of this routine is to allow several assets to be grouped, generating a single final asset.

We can mention construction as an example, where the construction material included is classified as \"advance\". E.g.: sand, cement, bricks, machines, etc. At the end of the work, all the assets related to the work are grouped and the sum of the respective costs will compose the construction amount.

While registering advances, we must use type 03 in the Asset Register, in the screen where we enter accounting data. We must register all the advances related to a “project” using the same base code, changing the item number.

In Advance Register, do not register the type 01.

 

If the asset type is 13 - Management Advance, before writing it off, use the routine Acquisition by Transfer.

 

At the time of writing-off, the user can check/uncheck the advances to be written-off. After confirmation, the screen is displayed for adding items so that the user can enter data about the new asset, like description, ledger accounts, cost center, depreciation rate, etc.

Through the Cancellation option, it is possible to cancel a write-off made.
