G/L Distribution Profiles List

The G/L Distribution Profile List page allows authorized users to view and maintain a list of all asset G/L Distribution profiles. These profiles determine which general ledger accounts are used when creating asset transactions (record, depreciate, adjust, transfer, and write off). When setting up an asset, the G/L distribution profile is assigned and the accounts defined are used for all journal entries pertaining to that asset.

There should be one profile for each asset type (land, infrastructure, vehicles, etc.) per fund (governmental fixed asset and any proprietary funds). For example, if there are buildings in the general governmental fixed asset fund and in the Airport Fund (a proprietary fund) there will need to be two G/L distribution profiles for buildings.

To access the G/L Distribution Profile List page, go to Maintenance > Financial Management > Asset Management > G/L Distribution Profiles.

Click Refresh at any time to repopulate and update the list to include any changes made by you or other authorized users.
