Custom Segments and Custom Fields in Fixed Assets Management Records and Transactions

The Fixed Assets Management SuiteApp lets you extend the custom segments functionality to your fixed assets records. This feature makes your custom segments available in the following records:

Asset proposal record
Asset record
Acquisition depreciation history record
Depreciation journal entries
Transfer depreciation history record and associated journal entries
Revaluation history record and associated journal entries
Disposal history record and associated journal entries and invoices

To take advantage of this feature, you must enable the Custom Segments feature (see Enabling the Custom Segments Feature). You must also apply the custom segment to the FAM record where you want it to appear. For more information, see Applying a Custom Segment to Record Types.

In FAM journals, the custom segment appears on the main body or the line item, depending on how you mapped the fields. You can also show the custom segments in fixed assets reports by customizing the XML report template. For more information, see Fixed Assets Report Template.

Note:

If custom segment is mandatory, an error may appear during a depreciation run. To process the depreciation, you must remove FAM Depreciation History from the Custom Segment Restriction. Go to Customization > Lists, Records & Fields > Custom Segments.

You can't currently filter FAM reports by custom segments.
