Maintaining assets

When your organisation acquires a new asset, add the asset details to the Asset Register. Each asset is linked to the general ledger, and profit and loss figures can be calculated on the value, sale and depreciation of all assets that your organisation currently owns.
You can record general asset information for individual assets, including a description, cost, type, model and serial number. The source of the asset is also recorded. For example, the asset may be purchased from a creditor or donated by a member of your community.
Synergetic calculates the written down value, depreciation and year-to-date depreciation.
