Fixed asset register

Import and maintain the Property, Plant & Equipment (PPE) register used for depreciation schedules and financial statement notes.

Prerequisites

• Company created with depreciation method (SLM or WDV) set on Manage company
• Audited opening WDV values for first-time import

Steps

Step 1: Open register

1. Go to Fixed Assets → Register.
2. Review existing asset rows for the selected company.

Step 2: Import register (first time)

1. Scroll to the bottom and download the Excel template.
2. Enter asset-wise data including opening WDV per audited accounts.
3. Upload via Import from Excel.

Opening WDV

On first import, enter the last written down value (WDV) for each asset exactly as per audited financials. Incorrect opening WDV affects all future depreciation.

Step 3: Year-on-year additions

• Tally users: Import yearly additions via Import from Tally.
• Excel users: Add new rows in the same template and re-import.

The register plots automatically in generated financial statements (PPE notes with opening, additions, depreciation, closing WDV).
