Purpose
The purpose of this document is to present process flows that will be applicable to the Clients' business process in Oracle Fusion Applications.
Information gathered during the user's sessions are also made part of this design document and presented together with the Oracle Standard
Process Flows based on Modern Best Practices as applicable to the Client. The structure of the document ensures that information gathered
from the Key Users is followed by the relevant Oracle Process Flow so that the users are able to relate to the Process as per standard features
available in Oracle.
This document will become standard baseline for the configuration of all Legal Entities in scope and for the training sessions. Detailed training
material will be shared on the basis of approved design.

Asset Life Cycle Management
Oracle Fusion Assets automates asset management and simplifies fixed asset accounting tasks. Oracle Fusion Assets:
➢ Uses a unified source of asset data (with data from your Oracle Fusion other applications).
➢ Provides you with visibility into your assets worldwide.
➢ Provides data security and function access.
You can streamline standard asset management tasks with automated business flows for these transactions:
➢ Asset additions
➢ Asset transfers
➢ Disposals
➢ Reclassifications
➢ Financial adjustments
➢ Legacy data conversions
The overall “Asset Acquisition to Retirement” business process flow is represented below:
Page 11 of 35
Oracle Assets directly integrates with the following applications:
• Use the Create Mass Additions for Assets process to send valid invoice line distributions and associated discounts from Payables
to the Mass Additions interface table in Assets.
• Review the mass addition lines in Assets and determine whether to create assets from the lines.
• Create the assets in Assets.
• Use the Generate Asset lines process to send valid line details from project costing to the Mass Additions interface table in
Assets.
• Review the mass addition lines in Assets and determine whether to create assets from the lines.
• Create the assets in Assets.
• Run the Create Accounting for Assets process to create journal entries for transaction events in Assets.
• Transfer and post the journal entries to Oracle Fusion General Ledger.
• Use the accounting reports to review accounting information for your assets, and to reconcile to the general ledger.

Capitalizing/Adjusting Asset
Oracle Fusion Asset is fully integrated with Oracle Fusion Payables, Oracle Project Costing and allows creation of assets against supplier invoices
and projects using mass additions. The Mass Additions interface can be used to create assets from information outside of Oracle Assets. Data
can be imported into Oracle Assets through interface tables from Oracle Payables and Projects. For each supplier invoice distribution line, mass
addition line with status of “New” is created in Oracle Fusion Assets. These mass addition lines are reviewed by asset accountants, who can
perform following actions before converting those lines into assets;
Once the source lines have been updated with the necessary details, Post Mass Additions request can be submitted to create assets from the
provided source line(s). Moreover, after an Asset is added to the Oracle Fixed Asset Sub Ledger, it may be necessary to make certain adjustments
over the course of the asset’s life. Adjustment can be made to asset for changes in cost. Adjustments to cost may be required if a credit invoice
is received subsequent to the initial capitalization or if an entire invoice is added to the sub ledger but a portion of the invoice represents
maintenance, which cannot be capitalized.

Fixed Assets Transfers in Oracle Assets
Oracle Fusion Assets allows to transfer assets between employees, depreciation expense accounts, and locations due to many reasons during
the course of asset’s life. However, there are certain scenarios where transfers cannot be created in Oracle Fusion Assets;
Concerned personnel will identify the need to transfer assets and must communicate this to the Fixed Assets Team. Upon posting the transfer,
Oracle Fixed Assets will automatically create the journal entries to record the transfer e.g. depreciation that was being charged one department
will, after transfer, be charged to the department to which it is transferred. These journal entries will be transferred to GL as part of the period
close process.

Fixed Assets Adjustments in Oracle Assets
Oracle Fusion Assets you can perform below adjustments;
➢ Change Financial Details of Assets: Perform adjustments to change information such as the asset cost, salvage information, and
depreciation information.
➢ Transfer Source Lines: Transfer source lines between capitalized assets, construction-in-process (CIP) assets, capitalized and CIP assets,
and CIP and capitalized assets.
➢ Change Asset Category: Change the asset category.
Above adjustments can be performed for an asset or you can perform mass adjustments using integrated spreadsheets.
If you change financial information after you have run depreciation, you must choose one of the following:
Expense: For expensed adjustments, Oracle Fusion Assets recalculates depreciation using the new information and expenses the entire
adjustment amount in the current period. Expensed adjustments result in a one-time adjusting journal entry
Amortize: You can set up amortized adjustments to have a retroactive start date by changing the default amortization start date (usually the
system date) to a date in a previous period. Any adjustment amount missed since the amortization start date is taken in the current period. If
you amortize an adjustment for an asset, you can't expense any future adjustments for that asset in that book.

Fixed Assets Revaluation in Oracle Assets
Use revaluation to record assets in your asset books at their fair value. You can revalue assets to increase or decrease their carrying value
whenever there's a change in the fair market value of the asset. Normally you perform revaluation of assets with sufficient regularity to ensure
that the carrying amount doesn't differ materially from its fair value on the balance sheet date. Revaluation differs from planned depreciation,
in which the recorded decline in value of an asset is tied to its use in business activities and age.
Revaluation
After revaluation, assets are carried in the books at their fair value as of the date of the revaluation, minus any:

Fixed Assets Retirement in Oracle Assets
When an asset is no longer in service because, for example, it was stolen, lost, damaged, sold, or returned, you retire the asset. You can retire
an asset completely if the entire asset is no longer in service or retire only part of an asset if only part of it is no longer in service.
➢ Full retirement: Retire all units of a multiple-unit asset or Retire the entire asset cost.
➢ Partial retirement: Retire a specified number of units of a multiple-unit asset or Retire a portion of the asset cost.

Fixed Assets Depreciation in Oracle
Run the Calculate Depreciation process to calculate depreciation for all assets in a book for a period. If depreciation isn't calculated
successfully for any assets, review the log file to determine the reason that depreciation failed.
• Close the current period automatically after running depreciation. If all of your assets depreciate successfully, Assets closes the period
and opens the next period.
• Keep the period remains open after running depreciation.
