New Lease [U0101]: Add Asset
This update is part of the New Lease [U0101]
group of updates. For an introduction to New Lease and links to all the New Lease documents, refer to
New Lease [U0101].
Introduction

Add Asset is an option of the New Lease update, which can be accessed through the
main LeasePak Updates menu, New Lease option, or by entering U0101 into Fast Menu
<F2>.
The Add Asset
option can be used to create an entirely new asset and add it to inventory, to
create an asset with information defaulted from another asset or pending (application)
asset, or to add a pending asset to inventory. In the case of adding a pending
asset, if the asset has already been setup using the Application
Asset tabs (part of Application Tracking, a separately purchased module in
LeasePak), it may be easier to use the Quick
Add Asset option of the New Lease update to add the asset to inventory.
Adding
an asset to inventory automatically generates an Asset Summary and Asset Detail
audit report, part of the New Lease Audit report group. The layout of the asset
information in this report is identical to that found in the Asset
Summary and Asset Detail
sections of the Lease Inquiry report [R0905].

Default/Pending Asset
- To book a pending asset (application asset), type the number of the pending asset here. To use a booked asset as a default for a new asset,
type the number of the booked asset here or click
to use the
Asset Search function. You can change defaulted information as you add the new asset.
Sub asset information does not default with the parent asset. If
Application Tracking [U08] is not part of your LeasePak license, LeasePak will not
display the 'Pending' portion of the field label.
To add a new asset without any defaults, leave the field blank and click OK.

Field Descriptions
Asset
- LeasePak displays the pending (for application assets) or newly assigned (for new adds) asset number.
Insurance Asset
- If you have Multiple Banks as part of your LeasePak
license, and you have set the field Ins Finance to 'Y' in Portfolio [U0212]:
New Lease Customizations, you can designate an asset as an insurance asset to track insurance and finance charges throughout the life of the lease. If the
insurance is cancelled before end-of-term, you can use
Payoff [U0103]: Partial Asset Payoff to pay off the insurance
asset.
Set this field to 'Y' or check the box to add an insurance asset. Set the field to 'N' or clear the box to add a normal asset. Click OK to continue.
When the user enters an insurance asset, LeasePak checks to verify that all Pre-Paid Insurance switches in Vendor [U0201] and
Portfolio [U0212] are set correctly.

Multi Entry
- Set this field to 'Y' or check the box to add an asset with sub assets. Set the field to 'N' or clear the box to add an asset without sub assets.
Click OK to continue.
Sub assets are useful for tracking serial numbers or other identifiers on many items of equipment
without setting up separate assets for each. The maximum number of assets associated
with a lease is 200, but many more sub assets may be added. Up to 1500 sub assets
may be entered for an asset. If more are needed, additional sub assets may be created with
Split/Merge Qty Asset [U0112].
Tax information, location and accounting information should be the same
for all sub assets associated with an asset. That data is entered at the parent
asset level. Acquisition cost and book salvage value (not tax salvage value) are
entered for each sub asset and the total is automatically entered for the parent
asset.

LeasePak displays this screen if you are adding an asset with sub assets.
Field Descriptions
Part Number
- Type the part number for the asset, up to 25 characters. Use the part number with
Salvage Value Write Down [U0128] to adjust the Salvage Value of sub assets. LeasePak tracks the total
number of sub assets listed with the same Part Number.
Item
- LeasePak lists the item/index number for up to 1500 sub assets. Use the scroll bar to the right of the list to scroll through the items.
Displayed Field Name
- Type a unique identifier for each sub asset up to 25 characters in length. Sub asset IDs must be unique for a single parent asset, but two sub assets
on different parent assets may have the same ID. LeasePak sorts sub assets alphanumerically by ID.
Acq. Cost
- Type the acquisition cost of each sub asset. LeasePak defaults the cost of the previous sub asset, which you can then change. As you enter sub assets,
LeasePak totals their acquisition costs. The total costs of all sub assets becomes the acquisition cost of the parent asset.
Sal %
- Type the percentage of the acquisition cost you are specifying for the Book Salvage Value (this is different from the Tax Salvage Value). Depending on
the parent asset's book depreciation method, LeasePak will depreciate the sub asset down to the Book Salvage Value for book purposes (as opposed to tax
purposes). LeasePak defaults the percentage of the previous sub asset, which you can then change or set to 0%.
If you enter a salvage value percentage, LeasePak calculates the corresponding dollar amount for Salvage Val. You can also skip the percentage field and
enter a dollar amount in Salvage Val.
Salvage Val
- Type the dollar amount you are specifying for the Book Salvage Value (this is different from the Tax Salvage Value). Depending on
the parent asset's book depreciation method, LeasePak will depreciate the sub asset down to the Book Salvage Value for book purposes (as opposed to tax
purposes). LeasePak defaults the amount of the previous sub asset, which you can then change or set to $0.
If you enter a salvage value amount, LeasePak calculates the corresponding percentage for Sal %.
Totals
- LeasePak tracks the total acquisition cost and salvage value for all sub assets entered. LeasePak uses these values for the acquisition cost and
book salvage value of the parent asset.
Click OK to continue or Cancel to go back to the previous screen.

Field Descriptions
Listed in alphabetical order by displayed field name. To find a field description, locate the field name on the screen display,
then look it up alphabetically in the list below. All Title Filings field names begin with 'Title Filings'.
Acquisition Cost
- Type the original acquisition cost of the asset. LeasePak uses this amount as the asset accounts payable. If you created sub assets on the previous
Multi Entry screen, the acquisition cost is the total of the sub assets' acquisition costs and you must change those costs to adjust the total.
If Multiple Banks is part of your
LeasePak license and you have specified an insurance asset, LeasePak uses the acquisition cost for the insurance premium.
Acquisition Date
- Type the date that the lessor acquired the asset using either an MM/DD/YY or DD/MM/YY format, according to your
Date Format Preference as specified in Security [U0706].
For insurance assets, LeasePak uses the acquisition date as the insurance effective date.
Address
- Type the street address of the asset's location up to 36 characters long.
AMT Depr
- Type the code for the alternative minimum tax (AMT) depreciation method or click
to select from the list. For an insurance asset, LeasePak sets the field to
'BY03' (bypass/3-year life) and locks out further access. For other types of assets, you can set the field to a bypass method (BYnn) if you are not
taking AMT depreciation for the asset. Only AMT (ALnn) and bypass methods are available. You cannot use AMT methods for assets with in-service
dates prior to August 1, 1986. Refer to Depreciation for more information on depreciation
methods.
Book Depr
- Type the code for the book depreciation method or click
to select
from the list. You must enter a book depreciation method for an operating lease asset. For an insurance asset, LeasePak sets the field to 'BY03'
(bypass/3-year life) and locks out further access. For other types of assets, you can use book depreciation as needed.
ACRS methods: you cannot use ACRS methods for assets with in-service dates prior to January 1, 1981.
ACRS Safe Harbor methods: you cannot use ACRS Safe Harbor methods for assets with in-service dates after December 31, 1983
ADR methods: you cannot use ADR methods for assets with in-service dates after December 31, 1980.
MACRS Half-Year Convention and MACRS Mid-Quarter Convention methods: you cannot use MACRS Half-Year Convention and
MACRS Mid-Quarter Convention methods for assets with in-service dates prior to August 1, 1986.
Refer to Depreciation for more information on depreciation methods.
City
- Type the city for the asset's location up to 25 characters long. The asset's city, along with its county (if any) and state, determine the tax
rate(s) applicable to the asset. Specify tax rates through the Location [U0701] or
Vertex Interface [U0437] updates.
Class
- Type the equipment class code (up to 4 characters) or click
to select
from the list. The first letter of the class code, 'E' or 'V', determines whether the asset is classified as equipment or a vehicle. You can create new
asset classification codes and descriptions using Custom Code [U0722], code category CLASS.
Company
- The portfolio, company, region, and office of an asset specify the accounting unit (discrete set of general ledger accounts) to which the asset belongs.
Type the asset's company, or click
to select from the list. To change
the company after you have added an asset to inventory but before you attach it to a lease or loan, use
Change Asset [U0120]: Change Key. To change the company of an asset attached to a lease or loan, use
Change Lease Key [U0114].
To change the portfolio, company, region, or office of a pending (application) asset, click Cancel to back out of this update and use
Application Tracking [U08]: Assets.
County
- Entering the asset's portfolio, city, and state will, in most cases, also fill in the corresponding county. In cases where a city encompasses more
than one county, type the county of the asset's location or click
to select
from the list. The asset's county (if any), along with its city and state, determine the tax rate(s) applicable to the asset. Specify tax rates through
the Location [U0701] or Vertex Interface [U0437]
updates.
Description
- Type a description for the asset up to 36 characters long.
Federal Depr
- Type the code for the federal depreciation method or click
to select
from the list. For an insurance asset, LeasePak sets the field to 'BY03' (bypass/3-year life) and locks out further access. For other types of assets,
you can set the field to a bypass method (BYnn) if you are not taking federal depreciation for the asset. If you are not taking federal depreciation
but still wish to claim Investment Tax Credit, you must use either the 'BY03' or 'BY05' bypass method.
ACRS methods: you cannot use ACRS methods for assets with in-service dates prior to January 1, 1981.
ACRS Safe Harbor methods: you cannot use ACRS Safe Harbor methods for assets with in-service dates after December 31, 1983

Refer to Depreciation for more information on depreciation methods.
GST Payable
- Canadian assets only. For assets subject to the Canadian Goods and Services Tax (GST), type the GST tax amount.
Identification
- Type an alphanumeric identifier for the asset up to 25 characters in length. For vehicle assets (type 'V'), this is the VIN (vehicle identification
number). Although LeasePak warns you if you enter an ID already used by another asset, you can still enter duplicate IDs.
LeasePak assumes you will want to enter a unique ID, and does not copy the identification over from the default asset if you specified
one. For insurance assets cloned from defaults, LeasePak defaults an 'I' into the beginning of the Identification field.
In-Service Date
- Type the date that the asset was placed in service using either an MM/DD/YY or DD/MM/YY format, according to your
Date Format Preference as specified in Security [U0706]. This may be different from
the acquisition date, lease date, or lease commencement date. LeasePak begins federal, state, and AMT depreciation on the in-service date (but not book
or manufacturer's depreciation). If you type an in-service date that is before the previous tax year boundary, LeasePak will warn you with the message
"Warning: asset in-service date is prior to previous tax year. Continue?" If you decide to continue, LeasePak will allow you to add the asset
with a previous year's in-service date. Once you have added an asset, you cannot change its in-service date after that year's tax boundary has passed. You
can change both the tax year boundary and the fiscal year end through
Portfolio [U0212]: Miscellaneous Customizations.
Contact your NetSol representative before changing the in-service date of an asset using ADR depreciation.
Ins Premium
- If applicable, type the amount of insurance premium to pay to the Broker. This is different from the insurance premium of an insurance asset.

manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP). For insurance type assets, this field is optional.
Manufacturer
- If applicable, click
and select from the list to specify a make or
manufacturer for the asset. Use Asset Description [U0710] to define manufacturers.
Model
- If applicable, click
and select from the list to specify a model under the
make or manufacturer. Use Asset Description [U0710] to define models.
New/Used
- Specify whether the asset is new ('N') or used ('U'). You cannot pass through ITC or ETC for used assets. For ADR depreciation methods, you can only
use ADR 150% Declining Balance for used assets, while you can use ADR 200% Declining Balance or ADR Sum of the Year's Digits for new assets.
If LeasePak displays the check box 'New' in place of the New/Used field, check the box to specify a new asset or clear the box to
specify a used asset.
Note Payable
- If applicable, type the number of the note payable used to finance this asset. Create and maintain notes payable through the optional LeasePak module

To change the portfolio, company, region, or office of a pending (application) asset, click Cancel to back out of this update and use
Application Tracking [U08]: Assets.
Prop Tax
- Turn this on (check box or set to 'Y') to have LeasePak include the asset on the
Property Tax Assessor [R0305] report. Turn this off (clear the box or set to 'N') to have LeasePak
exclude this asset from the report. Typically a property tax assessor will use the report (or information from it) to determine the tax liability for
assets within the appropriate jurisdiction.
Region
- The portfolio, company, region, and office of an asset specify the accounting unit (discrete set of general ledger accounts) to which the asset belongs.
Type the asset's region, or click

Residual
- Type the residual amount for the asset. This is typically the estimated worth of the asset at end of term. For an asset associated with a finance
lease, does not allow amounts that exceed FASB 13 guidelines. For an asset associated with an operating lease, LeasePak allows any amount, even an amount
exceeding the acquisition cost. For an asset associated with an interest bearing loan (IBL), LeasePak treats the residual as a balloon payment.
Salvage Value
- Type a salvage value amount for the asset. LeasePak takes state depreciation down to the salvage value amount, but takes federal depreciation down to
zero.
If you have specified an insurance asset, LeasePak sets Other Charges, Residual, and Salvage Value to zero, and you cannot
change these.
State
- Type the 2-character province or state abbreviation of the asset's location, or click
to select from the list. The asset's state, along with its city and county
(if any), determine the tax rate(s) applicable to the asset. Specify tax rates through the Location [U0701] or

this code typically when the asset is exempt from sales/use tax on the rental stream but possibly still subject to tax on the payoff amount or
on assessments during the course of the lease.
- PERM - Only the sales/use tax rates in effect at the commencement of the lease apply to the asset; subsequent rate changes do not flow
through to the asset.

Upfront Sales Tax
- Assets with Use Tax Code 'NOPF' and 'NOUT' only. Turn this on (check box or set to 'Y') to specify the tax jurisdictions and base amount
applicable to the upfront sales tax if the Lessee or other responsible party has paid it. Otherwise, turn this off (check box or set to 'N') to keep the
amount from appearing on Use Tax Disbursal [U0449] reports before you collect it.
With the Asset Cost Recalculation switch, Custom General [U0712] - Miscellaneous Customizations, enabled, LeasePak automatically adjusts the value for this field for a pending asset when its acquisition cost changes.
After you attach an asset with upfront sales tax to a lease and LeasPak writes the initial Tax Payable (rtp) and Tax Released (rtr)
records for the upfront tax amount, it continues to write rtp and rtr records for zero dollar amounts for each accrual, and these records appear on
Use Tax Disbursal [U0449] reports.
Upfront Sales Tax Base Amount
- LeasePak initially populates this with the acquisition cost. You should change this only to resolve penny-rounding problems among this field,
Upfront Sales Tax Upfront Sal Tax, and the final acquisition cost adjusted for the upfront sales tax.

Location [U0701] or Vertex Interface [U0437]
updates). If you type in a rate, use a percentage instead of a decimal amount. For example, for 6.25%, type 6.25, not .0625.
Upfront Sales Tax Upfront Sal Tax
- LeasePak initially calculates this as:
(Upfront St Rate + Upfront Cnty Rate + Upfront City Rate) * Base Amount
You should only change this to resolve penny rounding problems among this field,
Upfront Sales Tax Base Amount, and the final acquisition cost adjusted for the upfront sales tax. Update
the asset acquisition cost to match Base Amount + Upfront Sal Tax.
Use Tax Exempt Code
- Type a code indicating why the asset is tax-exempt or click
to select
from the list. Type or select NONE to bypass or if the asset is subject to tax. LeasePak provides the following codes/descriptions:
- EAUP - Sales/Use Tax paid up front on purchase price
- EAUG - Sales/Use Tax paid up front on gross receipts
- EALO - Asset is attached to a loan
- EA3P - Third party is responsible for Sales/Use Tax
You can add additional values using the Custom Code [U0722] update, code category STX.EX.AST. This field is
informational only.

Fields pertaining to Capital Cost Allowance (CCA) are legacy only, no longer in use.
This section includes information for both the non-vehicle and vehicle asset auxiliary information screens, which have most fields in
common. Fields belonging to only one type of asset or the other are specified.
Non-Vehicle
Vehicle
Fields

LeasePak only displays this screen if the asset belongs to an equipment ('E') class and the switch
Track Aux Non-Vehicle Info in Portfolio [U0212]: New Lease Customizations is checked
or set to 'Y'.

LeasePak only displays this screen if the asset belongs to a vehicle ('V') class and the switch
Track Aux Vehicle Info in Portfolio [U0212]: New Lease Customizations is checked
or set to 'Y'.
Listed in alphabetical order by displayed field name. To find a field description, locate the field name on the screen display,
then look it up alphabetically in the list below. Many of the fields are common to both non-vehicle and vehicle assets. Fields belonging
to only one type of asset or the other are specified.
Add. Depr. Method 1
- If desired, type a first additional depreciation method. LeasePak does not use this information in any processes.
Add. Depr. Method 2

- Use this field to determine whether or not a user can assess property tax to this asset using LeasePak. Turn this on (check the box or set to 'Y') to
allow a user to assess property tax to the asset, either through Group Property Tax Assessment [U0106],
Assessment [U0105], Batch Assessments [U0418], or
any other appropriate LeasePak update. Turn this off (clear the box or set to 'N') to not allow a user to assess property tax to the asset. Setting this
field to 'N' will not exclude it from the Property Tax Assessor [R0305] report and does not necessarily mean
that the asset is tax-exempt--it may instead simply mean that other arrangements are in place for assessing and paying the property tax.
Associated Asset
- If desired, type the number of an associated asset. You can use this field in conjunction with processes outside LeasePak to link assets.

- For assets with in-service dates prior to January 1986 and depreciable lives 3 years or longer, or for assets on leases with a firm commitment
prior to September 30, 1985 and depreciable lives 3 years or longer. Click
and select an Investment Tax Credit (ITC) code. For assets that do not qualify, select 'BYPS' to bypass. The codes are:
- BYPS - Bypass. Select this to not take ITC for the asset. You must select 'BYPS' if the federal depreciable life is less than 3 years or if
the in-service date is on or after January 1, 1986. If the asset was placed in service after January 1, 1986, but a firm commitment for the lease
was established prior to September 30, 1985, you can take ITC for the asset. Using Bypass indicates that both the lessor and Lessee are bypassing
ITC.
- PASS - Passthrough. Select this to pass ITC through to the Lessee. Available for new assets only.
- TK - Select this to take the full amount of ITC available in the current year. LeasePak automatically takes 6% if the federal depreciable
life is 3 years or 10% if the federal depreciable life is greater than 3 years.
- TK2 - Select this to take 2% per year for tax purposes of the full ITC amount available. LeasePak shows the amount of ITC to claim as 2% each
year for 3 years if the federal depreciable life is 3 years, or 2% each year for 5 years if the federal depreciable life is greater than 3 years.
- TR - Select this to take a reduced amount of ITC in the current year. LeasePak automatically takes 4% if the federal depreciable life is 3
years or 8% if the federal depreciable life is greater than 3 years. Available for federal depreciation method ACRS only.
- TR2 - Available for federal depreciation method ACRS only. Select this to take a reduced amount of ITC over 3 or 5 years for tax purposes.

one-fifth of 8% of the asset cost for each of 5 years if the federal depreciable life is greater than 3 years.

1986.
