#### Creating a Fixed Asset

Fixed Assets are created in two ways in the system. The first way would be via a GRV and the second way would be to create a new Fixed Asset directly in the Asset Management Module.

When creating a Fixed Asset via GRV the Fixed Asset should be part of the inventory system and the serial numbers can be tracked throughout the system.

##### GRV Method

<p class="callout info">When producing a GRV that will create a Fixed Asset the GRV line item must be a Fixed Asset inventory type and the inventory type must be ticked as a Serial Number Tracking.</p>

One other, requirement is Allow GRV item to Asset Tick box found on:

On the GRV line item once the inventory item has been selected and the quantity has been specified click on the create serials button and create the serial numbers as specified on the items being captured

It is important to ensure that a Brought Into Use Date is created for each serial number created. These dates can be edited on the grid if required. Residual values for serial number can also be captured on the grid at this time.

When GRV has processed the Residual value and Brought Into Use Date will be captured into the Fixed Asset along with all other default data discussed above.
