  • Change Ownership,

    • i.e, change cost center (analytic)

Imho already there : put asset to draft, change analytic account and the next deprectiation will be on the new analytics

  • Value Adjustment,

    • i.e., knowing sometime later that, there are additional expenditure into that assets and so the value should be increased

Asset re-/devaluation would be nice extra feature. Today it requires the creation of an extra asset (with negative value for devaluation)

  • Transfer (merge or split),

    • i.e., 2 asset under construction, merged as new final working Asset.

    • An normal acquired asset that splits into smaller assets.

Also a feature for which I have seen several demands in the past.

For the asset under construction today we work with booking on an intermediate account and counterbook that one to the asset account when the final asset is there, but that’s not a very handy workaround.

The asset split today needs to be done during purchase invoice booking.

I think that we should first make a requirements & design document for the new features. It will not be easy and also the reporting (which is there for a long time but in the form of a PR) will be impacted.

Luc

Subject: Operation related to Asset Management

 

Dear community,

 

My I check whether the following feature is relevant to OCA or being useful.

 

We done Odoo and got to learn some practice from an organization that deal with a lot of asset. Both normal asset, low valued asset, asset in transit, asset under construction.

 

They have asset operation like,

  • Change Ownership,

    • i.e, change cost center (analytic)

  • Value Adjustment,

    • i.e., knowing sometime later that, there are additional expenditure into that assets and so the value should be increased

  • Transfer (merge or split),

    • i.e., 2 asset under construction, merged as new final working Asset.

    • An normal acquired asset that splits into smaller assets.

We would love to port these features into OCA. But I am not very sure it will be useful, nor is it generic enough.

 

Any comments?

Kitti
