What sort of issues are you seeing? Deferrals can be a great tool, but they do have a few watch outs. The biggest one for me is that it posts all activities into the future. So, if you must amortize over 12 months, all 12 months must be open in the Deferral Posting date to post. Then if something is abandoned or written off, you need to reverse / correct those entries. We use them internally for both revenue and expenses.

Ah, but you did spend the money, correct? If you spent the money where was it recorded in your G/L? There is no way to create an unbalanced entry in BC. You could turn off the G/L integration to post acquisition cost, but then your asset balances won’t match the FA subledger.

If you have a CIP / Fixed Asset in Progress G/L account you could use that as the balancing account in the Fixed Asset G/L Journal. That account will look strange until you get the funding, pay it out, and record the capital asset / liability, but it does allow you to create the asset until then.

Lewis,

I’m guessing when you built the Routing you did not enter any run time for the operation that used the Subcontractor work center, correct? Although I agree most subcontractors charge a per unit price, with run time associated to that work center I’d expect it to create the PO based on that.
