Mass
Additions:
Consist of default rules and Public APIs that can be used by customers to complete the preparation of mass addition lines automatically Auto populate required fields such as Expense Account, Asset Category, and others
Avoid manual intervention during the Mass Additions prepare process Avoid customization and use public APIs to effect custom business logic
PROCESS
Interface Mass Addition Lines from AP or Other system
Run the Prepare Mass Additions Concurrent Program
To
process mass addition lines:
1. Interface Mass Additions Lines from Accounts Payable or any other system 2. Run the Prepare Mass Additions Program 3. Optionally verify Mass Additions data 4. Post Mass Additions
SETUP
Set up Quickcodes
Rules to Prepare Mass Additions:
Value Description
The Asset Category is derived based on the Asset Clearing Account if there is a one to one match in the Asset Category setup. The Expense account is derived based on the Clearing Account by replacing the natural account segment from the Asset Category. The Prepare Mass Additions program will use the custom logic coded in the Public API
Use Default

Major Asset Transaction reports have been modified to support XML publisher You can modify or use new templates to view report output
XML reporting is available for the following asset reports:
Asset Transfers Report Transaction History Report Asset Reclassification Report Mass Additions Create Report Cost Adjustment Report Cost Summary Report CIP Summary Report Reserve Summary
Journal Entry Reserve Ledger Asset Additions Report CIP Capitalization Report Mass Additions Posting Asset Retirements
You can customize report output by modifying seeded templates or by using new templates
Set up Procedure:
1. Query up the concurrent program as system administrator 2. Change the output format to XML 3. Once the output is flagged as XML, submit concurrent request

Depreciation is rolled back automatically by the system when any transaction is performed on an asset if the following conditions are met:
Depreciation has been processed in that period and The period is not closed
You are no longer required to run the depreciation rollback program manually Depreciation rollback is executed only on select assets as required and not on the entire Asset Book
