How to: Attach Fixed Assets to Multiple Insurance Policies

You can attach a fixed asset to different insurance policies. You must attach the fixed asset to an insurance policy when you post acquisition costs from a purchase invoice, FA general ledger, or FA journal. You must then fill in the Insurance No. field, and then attach other fixed assets to other insurance policies by posting insurance journals.

To attach fixed assets to multiple insurance policies

   The FA Posting Type field and the Maintenance Code field are available in the Purchase Invoice window, but not shown by default. For more information, see Personalize the User Interface.
