(JPN) Set up reduction entry for fixed assets

Applies To: Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R3, Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R2

When you acquire a fixed asset using a government subsidy, the subsidy is treated as taxable revenue and can be registered in Microsoft Dynamics AX by using a reduction entry. You can use the following reduction entry methods to register the government subsidy for a fixed asset acquisition.

  • Direct-off method – The government subsidy amount is deducted directly from the acquisition cost of the fixed asset.

  • Reserve method – The government subsidy amount is maintained as a separate value on the equity side of the balance sheet. The government subsidy amount does not affect the net book value of the fixed asset.

Uwaga

This topic has been updated for functionality that is included in Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R3 Cumulative Update 8.

Follow the steps in this topic to set up a reduction entry document, and then assign the reduction entry document to a fixed asset or to multiple fixed assets. You can set up a fixed asset posting profile for reduction entry. You can also set up accounts for the transactions of type disposal. The transaction amounts are retrieved from these accounts when you post a fixed asset with reduction entry using the direct–off method.
