Asset Transfers: Generated Transactions

As you transfer fixed assets, you create and process transfer transactions. To track the locations of items and update the GL balances, the system generates the GL transactions described in the following sections.

Transaction Generated for Asset Transfer

When you create and release a transfer transaction from one branch to another branch, the system generates the following general ledger transaction.
