      Hi All

      Below is the fixed asset (FA) Disposal sale parameter posting set up:

      ComputerĀ Ā  Depreciation (prior years) 160120 150120
      ComputerĀ Ā  Depreciation (this year) 160120 150120
      ComputerĀ Ā  Net book value 150120 150120

      where account #Ā 150120 isĀ ?ComputerĀ  cost & 160120 is accumulated dep-ComputerĀ Ā 

      Assets are disposed off at NBV

      Posting work perfectly in subleger but now GL balance is not agreeing with FA sub ledger

      Another question is in the report: FA movement report, there is field credited named Profit/loss $$$, but there is no impact on P&L as FA was disposed off on NBV, not sure where this heading P&L make impact

      Please advise is this posting set up is incorrect or GL to be adjusted manually

      Thanks and kind regards

      Hello Nazim Lalji,
      In regards to your difference between GL and FA:
      Can you check whether some manual postings have been made on the FA summary accounts that are setup in your FA posting profile?
      Also make use of the GL reconciliation reports – in your case the transaction origin report – that can help you identifying differences between GL and the other subledgers.
      About the P&L posting:
      What will be posted when you sell fixed assets depends on the fixed asset posting profiles. It is possible that you simple post the sales revenue and expense the NBV without posting the profit/loss from the sale separately on a specific ledger account. Per se, there is nothing wrong if you do not have a specific posting on a profil/loss account for fixed asset sales. However, it is of course better splitting up the sales related postings when selling fixed assets but this depends on your company’s requirements.
      Best regards,
      Ludwig

      Hello Nazim Lalji,
      There is no standard FA-GL reconciliation report available.
      You can, however, make use of the transaction origin report to identify differences between FA and GL.
      Alterantively, the voucher transaction form can help identifying the root cause of those differences by filtering the transactions on account, posting type and transaction type.
      Best regards,
      Ludwig

      It looks like your account postings are incorrect for the net book value posting.Ā  You selected the Asset account but you also selected the Asset account as the offset account.Ā  You should have taken this to the Gain / (Loss) on FA Disposal.Ā  It looks like you wrote off the asset but posted it back to the asset account.
