Hi there, First of all, I would like to give credit to the initiators (c2c) and the improver (gg) for their work BEFORE I took over!
I have a few comments/questions... see below regards, Bogdan On 27. 04. 11 01:49, Graeme Gellatly wrote: > Hi Cristian, > > Will most definitely test this. > > Stock and assets are to my mind completely different beasts. I agree. We should investigate how much (if at all) they should work together. for the time being, in order to create an asset, there are two processes: new acquisition: invoice (select "existing" product) > register the line as asset > the asset is automatically created in the account_asset tables. existing (now yet working): asset> new> create asset from existing product. TODO: somehow block the FA from being listed in the stock.

(Just > thinking out loud here) yes and no:-) the new purchased/stocked product would (i think) go the "normal" way up to when its status changes into a FA (they should no be registered as such untill they are used, maybe). THEN, I agree, they become a different "beast". However, the locations can be the same. e.g. a PC used by the store manager can be located in the warehouse, close to stock. > > Another idea for asset location may be to use a partner (company or > employee) address for main location, and then possibly a many2one or > char field for localisation at that location, e.g. 2nd floor, or > printer room. That link to employee could be especially useful for IT > Equipment and Vehicles when it comes to the HR exit process. i agree, however, the locations still could remain standard (think about double data, double input, too) and additional info stored in the FAM module OR in the corresponding modules (car fleet management, HW management, and so on) which do not need to be linked to FAM, as this module (FAM) is essentially an accounting module, no car fleet admin needs to know the depreciation level of his cars... maybe it is a good idea to keep things simple... > > Cheers > Graeme > > On Wed, Apr 27, 2011 at 10:08 AM, Ovnicraft <[email protected] > <mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: > > Hello accounting experts, so this module exists in extra-addons > from v5 now in feedback <http://bit.ly/fU7YOY> site there is > another requirement about assets and Bodgan Stancui start the > module and create a wiki page <http://bit.ly/igre46> for this.
