For companies adhearing to IFRS or using an International version of Dynamics GP 2010, now available is “Low Assets Pooling” depreciation in Fixed Assets.  This is a biggie for Austrailian Dynamics GP users.

For the Setup Guide, Click Here, to access and download the Fixed Assets Enhancements Guide.  It is only 13 pages and easy to follow.

What is Low Assets Pooling?  The idea is similiar to the US standard of MACRS or ACRS.  (Remember those methods?)  MACRS – Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System and ACRS – Accelerated Cost Recovery System.   Low Asset Pooling can be used in countries, such as, Austrailia, Germany, New Zealand etc…where they elect to use an accelerated form of depreciation for tax purposes. 

For more information included is a link to the Austrailian Taxing Authorties if you are interested in learning more.  CLICK HERE.  For the complete FA Depreciation Austrailian Guide CLICK HERE.

Ironically, as I was writing this article over the weekend the Microsoft GP Team posted a blog on Monday regarding the Austriailian Taxation Office website.  Stating that Dynamics GP is acceptable for meeting specific Austrailian tax obligations. 

See also Austrailian Taxation Office (ATO) for more information.

There are a Lot of new features in field service.  One of the more notable is the option for additional billing frequencies in Contract Administration.  Now you can have an unlimited number of custom billing frequencies.

First, let’s look at Dynamics GP prior to 2010. Below is version 10.

You are only given the option for a billing day, see Bill Day “day the invoice will be billed” and Frequency “how often the customer will be billed.”

In Dynamics GP 2010…

You are given the options

•  “Frequency Value Type” which is either “Every” or “At.”
•   Fill in X number then select “Days, Weeks, Months or Years.”
•   “Bill on Day” is the date to bill the customer.

This new feature has warrented tremendous positive customer feedback.  Thank you field service development team.

A little off the Dynamics GP beaten path but information worth passing along especially for accountants. The formation of a new committee for international integrated financial reporting.  As of August 2, 2010 the  International Integrated Reporting Committee (IIRC) was formed by the Prince’s Accounting for Sustainability Project (A4S) and the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI).
