To Add a Book

You can set up depreciation books for fixed assets by using the Books (FA205000) form. You then assign one book or multiple books to an asset class, depending on your company policy.

To Add a New Book

1. Open the Books (FA205000) form.
   Note: To open any form, you can navigate to it or search for it (by its name or by its form ID without periods). For more information about search capabilities, see Search.
2. On the table toolbar, click Add Row.
3. In the Book ID column, type a short name of the book.
4. In the Description column, type the description of the book.
5. If you want to make a posting book, select the Posting Book check box.
   Note: You can select only one book for posting.
6. Select the mid-period type for the book.
7. Specify the mid-period day.
8. On the form toolbar, click Save.

After you add a new non-posting book, you should set up a calendar for the book by using the Book Calendar Setup (FA206000) form. For details, see To Configure a Book Calendar.
