AM30


AM30.1 - Transfers

**Form Purpose
Use Transfers (AM30.1) to process individual asset and partial item transfers.

You can accomplish the asset transfer process either by individual asset or
in mass. Mass asset transfers are done in a two-step process. You select
assets using AM35.1 (Mass Transfer Selection). You release or update mass
asset transfer selections using AM135 (Mass Transfers). Select the Books page
to define the book you will transfer the asset from and the book the asset
will transfer to.

**Processing Effect
If you transfer from a book with a different currency than the book you
transfer the asset to, the asset basis, or cost, and the YTD and LTD
depreciation translation is done at the exchange rate of the currency on the
'from' company book to the currency on the 'to' company book.

**More Information
If you select P (Partial) in the Transfer field, the program navigates to
Items (AM30.2). You can then select the items involved in the transfer and
indicate the quantity to be transferred to each item.

The default accounting unit is required when any of the accounting units are
not defined on the to-accounting unit group being used. This accounting unit
is used to fill in any blank accounting units not defined by the accounting
unit group.

Once you start the transfer and select the items (in the case of a partial
item transfer only), the program navigates to AM30.3 (Journal Entries), the
general ledger entry program where you can add, change, or accept
system-prompted entries. The general ledger date defaults from the transfer
date. Once you have transferred assets, you can release (update) them either
online using this program or in mass using AM170 (Processing Release).

If you release transactions that include user analysis values, complete the
Strategic Ledger Processing cycle to analyze profitability. Use SL40.1 (Error
Transaction Edit) to view and correct transaction errors and SL90.1 (Strategic
Ledger Transaction Analysis) to display transactions.
