Fixed Asset Register (report)

The Fixed Asset Register report shows posted fixed asset ledger entries sorted by register numbers.

You can explore information about all transactions posted for fixed assets, such as:

  • FA posting date
  • Document type and number
  • Depreciation book code
  • Fixed asset number and description
  • FA posting category and type
  • Amount, posting date, and entry number

On the request page, you can set a filter for the relevant fixed asset. If you don't set filters, the report shows the register for all fixed assets.

You can set up the report to become part of the posting process; that is, it can print when you post. To print the register when you post a journal, select the Post and Print action on the journal. You can use the report to document posted entries or for auditing.

About the fixed assets register

Business Central automatically assigns consecutive entry numbers to all entries that you post to depreciation books. In the FA registers, the entries are sorted by the entry number order, regardless of the FA numbers or depreciation book numbers.

Business Central creates a register each time you post, either directly from a fixed asset journal or indirectly from purchase invoices or sales invoices. The individual registers are also numbered (one is the first number).
