Replicating Assets

If you are adding multiple assets that are similar in nature, you can add the first one, save it, then replicate it as needed. The application can create as many as 999 assets out of a single entry. After you've replicated an asset, you can change each asset individually to modify specific fields as needed. This feature is particularly useful for adding grouped assets from the same invoice.

Note: If you replicate an asset that has Section 179 expense or bonus depreciation, remember to reduce the Section 179 or bonus depreciation amounts for the replicated assets, as needed.

To replicate an asset

1. In Asset Detail, display the asset you want to replicate.
2. Do either one of the following:
   • Select Asset/Replicate from the menu bar.
   • Select the Replicate an Asset task on the navigation pane.

The system displays the Replicate Asset window.

3. Enter the number of times you want to replicate the asset, then select OK. The system displays a message confirming the replication and informing you of the Starting System number.
4. Select OK to close the confirmation message.
5. Enter assets individually to edit asset information (if applicable).
