1 Overview
All assets of Rajby Industries will be maintained in the Oracle Assets Module. Oracle
Assets will keep the information related to both capitalized assets as well as CWIP
assets. CWIP assets will be capitalized when it is probable that future economic benefits
will flow to the company. The Oracle Assets module is integrated with Oracle Payables
and Oracle General Ledger.
Oracle Assets is a complete Lifecycle Module with major capabilities and their use at
Rajby industries.
Maintenance of Assets:
All the records related to assets will be maintained in asset book, where they can be seen
or enquired and their transaction history traced.
Calculate depreciation expense and adjustments for the period, and close the
current period.
Disposal of Fixed Assets:
Disposal of Assets shall also be recorded in Oracle Assets by using Retirement
functionality. Oracle Assets allows to preview accounting effects of retirement and then
after accounting effect has been verified, users can post retirement and run Calculate
Gain and Loss Program.

There are following benefits of implementing Oracle Assets for Rajby Industries
Automate asset additions as part of the procure-to-pay process to interface
depreciable capitalized assets.
Strong reporting tools to ensure accuracy and completeness, there will be system
generated reports available such as fixed assets register and fixed assets schedule
to check assets details.
Tracking of Fixed assets from Oracle Payables
Automatic calculation of Depreciation, WDV of Assets and gain and loss on assets
disposals.
Mass Assets addition through Web ADI in excel sheet for direct uploading in
Oracle Assets Module.
Transferring of assets to different employees, from one location to another and
from one expense account to another.
Creating and maintaining CIP assets as the money is used for raw materials and
labor for constructing them.
Online inquiry of Assets
Transfer of assets within different units
Multi-org access control enables to view data of multiple operating units using a
single responsibility.
Create accounting program will transfer all the entries into the General Ledger
module on regular intervals.
Automatic asset tagging number generation.
Reclassification of Assets.
In oracle Assets, asset books are created to secure/segregate asset data. Asset books are
assigned to a ledger.
Oracle assets are used to record Asset related transactions and reporting as per statutory
requirements. Asset books are set up for accounting recognition and measurement of
Assets. In Oracle either Cost or revaluation model can be used can be used at one time
for each corporate book and depreciation schedule can only be calculated for an asset for
either of the two models at a time accordingly depending on which model is selected
while setting up the oracle Assets.
The following cost books will be maintained at Rajby Industries to measure assets at
cost model. Depreciation will be charged according to the cost book.
Cut to Pack Asset Book
Washing Asset Book
A corporate book will be defined which will be maintained for revaluation purposes.
Periodically data will be transferred from cost book to corporate book. Depreciation will
be charged according to the corporate book.
Asset books will contain following information:
Asset Books
Cut to Pack Asset Book Washing Asset Book
In Oracle Assets, all assets will be grouped and tracked by Asset Categories. Asset
categories will be used in Oracle Assets for accounting and depreciation / amortization.
In Oracle, following information will be maintained at Asset Category level:
Sr. No Information
1 Cost Account
2 Cost Clearing Account
3 Depreciation Account
4 Accumulated Depreciation Account
5 Revaluation Reserve Account
6 Revaluation Amortization Account
7 CWIP Cost Account
8 CWIP Cost Clearing Account
9 Depreciation method
10 Useful life
11 Asset Addition Convention
12 Asset Retirement Convention
The above information will default at the time of asset creation based on the category
assigned. Following assets category structure will be set up in the system:
Sr. Segment
Segment Name Type Description
No Length
Combination of above segments will make up different asset category combination in the
system. When new asset is added, asset category combination will be assigned to it.
Oracle Assets uses the location flex field to group assets by physical location. It would
help Rajby Industries management to report their assets by location. The asset location
flex field will comprise of the following structure.
Segment
Sr. No Segment Name Type Description
Length
Oracle Assets uses the asset key flex field to group the assets by non-financial
information. It is used for recording additional information. At Rajby industries, the
asset key flex field will consist of the following segment(s).
Segment
Sr. No Segment Name Type Description
Length
Oracle Assets uses the prorate convention to determine how much depreciation to take
in the first and last period of an asset's life based on when asset is placed in service. If an
asset will be retired before it is fully used, Oracle Assets will use the pro-rate convention
to determine how much depreciation to take in the last year, of life based on the
retirement date.
At Rajby Industries, full-month depreciation will be charged in the month of acquisition
and retirement.
Assets Number will be automatically created at the time of creation of assets. If assets
are purchased in bulk then each asset will have separate asset number.
Asset Tag Number is manually enterable field and user will be able to enter the tag
number at the time of creation of asset.
Asset Number is system generated and will appear with each asset in asset workbench
while tag number will appear in Asset Tagging Report/Fixed Asset Register.
At each month end, the authorized user in Accounts Department will execute the
‘Depreciation Run’. After reviewing the depreciation results, the said user, if satisfied, will
run ‘Transfer to General Ledger’ program and close the relevant Oracle Assets period for
each Corporate Asset
Book. Any Oracle Assets period, once closed, cannot be reopened.
