   1. see General Ledger Transfer FAQs. 

2. When a capital object code is entered in the Accounting Lines, a Generate button will appear in the Accounting Lines for Capitalization section. Once your accounting lines are complete and accurate, click Generate.

3. The next screen shows the accounting lines for Capitalization. Each accounting line from the top section that has a capital object code (i.e., 8202, 8215) will populate as an accounting line for Capitalization. You have the option to apply each line individually to one or multiple assets or to create new assets. For more details about these options, review the Modifying a Single Asset, Modifying Multiple Assets, and Creating an Asset sections below.

Modifying a Single Asset

In this example, a GLT is applicable to one asset record, moving the payment from one account/object code to another. Both the FROM and the TO sides of the entry are related to the same asset, and the asset record already exists in KFS.

1. Select both checkboxes on the right.

2. Click Modify Asset to open the Modify Capital Assets Section.

4. If you are not sure what the asset number is, you can look it up. Search for the purchase order in KFS in the Notes and Attachments tab. Alternatively:

   1. Go to the Assets menu.

   2. Click on Asset Payment.

   3. Enter the PO number in the Purchase Order Number field, or enter the Payment Request eDoc number in the Document Number field (highlighted in the image below).

   4. If both of these methods do not provide an asset number, the asset has not yet been tagged. Contact Inventory Control for an asset number.

   Note

   1. The amount distributed will appear as though the amount is doubled.

      In this example, the amount of expense being moved from one account to another account is $22,716.66. The total amount distributed will appear as $45,433.32. This is normal. The amounts that actually go through the account and the asset record will still be -$22,716.66 and +$22,716.66.
