NetAsset - Override Go-Live Date

Overview

NetAsset now includes a new Override Go-Live Date feature that allows users to set asset-specific go-live dates independently from the global go-live setting. This functionality is particularly useful when going live with multiple subsidiaries at different times. Instead of modifying the system-wide go-live date, users can now manage go-live timing directly on the asset record.

Prerequisites

• Users understand the existing global go-live date functionality in NetAsset.

• Assets have already been created with schedules fully generated.

• The asset specific override go-live date field must be later than the global go-live date.

• Users must have the appropriate permissions to edit asset records and perform capitalization.

Step-by-Step Process

1. Locate the Asset Record

   • Navigate to the asset you wish to assign a unique go-live date to.

2. Access the Override Go-Live Date Field

   • Go to the Accounting tab of the asset record.

   • Scroll to the bottom to find the Override Go-Live Date field. View full size

3. Set the Override Date

   • Enter the specific date the asset should go live.

   • Ensure this date is after the global go-live date set in the global settings.

4. Save the Record

   • Click Save to confirm the changes.

5. Run the Go-Live Process

   • Queue the asset for capitalization.

   • Use filters to locate the asset for the relevant period:

     • Filter by Transaction Type= Go-Live

     • Filter by the specific period corresponding to the override date.

     • Select the asset and click the Go-Live button.

     • The system will generate a go-live journal entry based on the Override Go-Live Date, not the global setting. View full size

Limitations/Things to Be Aware Of

• The Override Go-Live Date must be later than the Global Go-Live Date.

• This feature does not replace the global date but supplements it for more granular control.

• Overrides can be applied manually in the UI or in bulk via CSV Upload.

Troubleshooting

• Go-live entry not generating:

  • Verify the override date is correctly set and after the global go-live date.

  • Confirm the asset has been queued for capitalization.

  • Ensure the correct period and transaction type is selected in filters.

• Override date not appearing:

  • Check user permissions and ensure the Accounting tab is visible on the asset record and that the override go-live date field is set to show on the preferred form.

  • Refresh the page after updating asset fields to ensure changes are recognized.
