Accum Deprec

Question

I had a GL audit adjustment for depreciation. Now, my accum depre in FAS does not tie to my GL. How can I record the entry in FAS?

Hello Edith, 
 The simple answer is: You Can&rsquo;t. Mass changing of an Accum number in Fixed Assets is not in the design of the program. 
 You say Sage Fixed Assets does not tie to your GL, but where did your GL get its numbers if not from a posting from SFA? 
 The GL posting from SFA is the Depreciation This Run number which can be but is not, by default, a monthly number. See What is depreciation this run for more information. 
 The most likely thing to have happen is that the posting to the GL was over/under stated for a variety of reasons that without digging down into the assets themselves it is impossible detail. 
 I would suggest running the Monthly Projection report sorted by either GL Accum or GL Expense and comparing that to your old posting to see when the differences occurred.

My first reply to that would be - they would have to prove those numbers are correct before I would believe them, but that might be a bit too harsh. 
 I do not what else to tell you - the program totals are the sum of the calculation done on individual assets. There is no way to insert an accum into the program without an appropriate value being added also.
