GL posting report for Disposal

SUGGESTED

Hello, 

Is there a GL posting report for disposals? I am new to Sage. Right my company use oracle fincancial and Sage is not linked to Oracle. When we dispose an asset , we have to make manual entries. Is there a way we can have a GL posting report for asset we dispose so we can upload the spreadsheet to orcacle ? 

I know there is a GL posting for depreciation but i am not sure if there is one for disposal. when we dispose an asset , we have to manually write the JE if the system can generate a report with the appropriate JE it would be so helpfull.  Please let me know if that is possible? Thank you !

    Hello Lovelie,

    There is not a specific report for posting disposals. There is the disposal report which does have a date range so that you can get the disposals for specific periods which can be exported to Excel and then be modified to be an import file.

    I get this question all the time and the thing which always hangs me up is, I am not even sure what a report for the posting of disposals would even look like. Me, being a technician, find myself thinking that it would not be that difficult to throw something to in Crystal which could do the job, but in asking for details, I do get widely differing answers.

    I do not know if you have Reporting where you could write your own report to generate the posting. If not, I would suggest the Ideas page here: Ideations - Sage Fixed Assets - Sage City Community to let Dev. know what you want or the SES guys who can create a custom interface to pull the data you are looking for in that posting.

    Hi Lovelie,

    You can write a custom report and save the report template for future use.  Pull in the fields you want for your file; asset number, cost, AD, sale proceeds, gain/loss, etc.  Run the report, then send it to excel as a data only report.  This means you have to manually type in the column headers but the data drops nearly into columns.  You may have to edit the excel file a bit for your upload to Oracle.  You can also create a custom group for disposals based on a date range.

    Once you get the hand of writing reports it is fairly simple.  You simply add the columns you want and go from there.  You will have a bit of trial and error to get what you want but the process is straightforward.
