Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Search for | Example | Results |
---|---|---|
A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Search for | Operator | Example |
---|---|---|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
Either word in a topic |
|
|
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

Fixed asset workflow
This section describes the metaphases and subordinate phases in the life cycle of a fixed asset.
The fixed asset workflow relies on business rules. Rules repeat from one phase to another when the end user can make a change to a field affected by a business rule during that phase.
Metaphase: Draft
The fixed asset is in draft phases, prior to reconciliation.
Phase | Transition | Description |
---|---|---|
Not reconciled | Manual |
The starting point for fixed asset, when the contract is drawn up. The result of the phase is the successful creation of a contract. When the fixed asset is reconciled, or partially reconciled, the Financial Manager can manually transition the fixed asset to the relevant active phase. Next phase: Partially reconciled or Reconciled |
Metaphase: Active
The fixed asset is effective and in execution stages.
Phase | Transition | Description |
---|---|---|
Partially reconciled | Manual |
The fixed asset is still being reconciled. When it is reconciled, the Financial Manager manually transitions the fixed asset to the Reconciled phase. Next phase: Reconciled |
Reconciled | Manual |
The fixed asset is reconciled. When the fixed asset has reached end of life, the Financial Manager manually writes the fixed asset off. Next phase: Write-off |
Metaphase: Ended (End)
The fixed asset's life cycle has ended.
Phase | Transition | Description |
---|---|---|
Write-off | None |
The fixed asset has been written off. Next phase: None |
