Postings of Advances (ATFA040 - SIGAATF)

This routine enables the grouping of several assets, generating a single final asset.

An example is construction, where the construction material added is classified as advance payment. Ex: sand, cement, bricks, machines, etc. At the end of the construction work, all the assets related to the job are grouped, and the sum of their respective costs will comprise the value of the construction.

When registering advances, use type 03 in the Asset Register, on the accounting data screen. Register all advances related to a project with the same base code, changing the item number.

At the time of posting, you can select/deselect the advances to be posted. After confirmation, the items addition screen is displayed for you to enter data specific to the new item, such as description, ledger accounts, cost center, depreciation rate, etc.

Use option Cancellation to cancel a posting you have made.
