One-time setup steps

For Write-Up CS or Trial Balance CS users

Choose Setup > User Preferences > File Locations tab. In the Fixed Assets data path field, specify the drive and folder where your Fixed Assets CS client data files are stored.

Write-Up CS users only

Choose File > New Client or File > Client Properties. In the General Ledger tab of the Client Properties dialog, choose the appropriate selection in the Journal for Fixed Assets CS JE field.

Importing the Depreciation JE

Fixed Assets CS writes the depreciation JEs automatically. In CSA, choose Utilities > Import Fixed Assets CS Journal Entries.

You may import the JE information at any interval that is appropriate for the selected GL or Trial Balance client. The imported information automatically overwrites any depreciation JEs that may already be on file for the client in the current period.

Special note

For users with Trial Balance-only or GL/Trial Balance clients

The JE information from Fixed Assets CS will be imported as an Adjusting entry in the Adjusting Journal Entries window. You can view and modify these entries in the Adjusting Journal Entries window or in the split-screen view of the Trial Balance window.
