GYDE365-Design : Fixed Assets Summary

Fixed assets are items of value that are owned by an individual or organisation. The Fixed Asset module controls the creation, acquisition, depreciation, adjustment, transfer and disposal of fixed assets.

You can set up and enter acquisition information for fixed assets, and then manage the assets by setting depreciation schedules, capitalisation thresholds, creating asset adjustments and disposing of them.

The Fixed Assets module considers all items of value such as buildings, vehicles, land and equipment that are owned by an individual or company. The module enables users to set up and enter acquisition information for fixed assets, and then manage them by depreciating them and setting a capitalisation threshold to determine depreciation. The advanced module functionality simplifies a user’s management of the fixed asset lifecycle providing functionality to create, capitalise, transfer, revalue, split, depreciate and dispose fixed assets as standard.

The core Fixed Asset functionality allows users to manage and maintain;

• Fixed Assets
• Journal Entries
• Budget

The GYDE365 survey takes you through a series of questions to assist with the configuration and design of your Dynamics 365 solution. The fixed assets survey is split into the following sections;

• Configuration
• Asset Disposal
• Depreciation
• Default Values

GYDE365-Design is built to empower users with an easy to navigate survey structure that identifies key requirements to influence a gold standard Dynamics 365 implementation.

The application is built using a hierarchical structure whereby each template consists of chapters, sections and questions. Prior to answering the questions, investing the time to review the help content available is invaluable to gaining the most out of the application.

The questions present within each section are displayed systematically. Answers to a question may trigger additional questions to appear in the survey. This provides a unique structure based upon the requirements of the end user.

Questions adopt an answer type of Grid, Numerical, String, Date or List. Each must be answered in accordance with the relative format.

The typical features found within the question format are detailed below.
