1What it is and why
| What it is | A periodic task that reclassifies a fixed asset by moving it to a new fixed asset group or giving it a new number in the same group. |
|---|---|
| What you do here | Used to move an asset to the right group when posting requirements change, carrying its books and transactions over to the new asset. |
| Example | For example, a company that tracks cars and semi-trucks in one VEHICLES group can create a TRUCKS group with its own ledger postings and reclassify the trucks into it. |
