Fixed Assets & Equipment

It’s easy to create a dynamic Fixed Assets database with Structure. You get quick and easy access to two critical elements of your fixed assets–Depreciation Schedules and Preventive Maintenance.

Depreciation Schedules Structure integrates your Depreciation Schedule with your General Ledger. But it does more–it lets you easily set it up to report depreciation on a tax basis and on a third alternate schedule you define.

Preventive Maintenance

Structure’s integrated Preventive Maintenance Schedule determines when maintenance is required and the parts you need.

You can even print out a service ticket. And there’s more. Structure links Fixed Assets to its other modules. You can:

• Track equipment and maintain equipment history
• Analyze revenue and expenses
• Review cost per hour of usage

With Structure’s Fixed Assets Module, you have another dynamic and useful management tool.

General Ledger

In any accounting system, all transactions link to General Ledger, and with Structure, you can isolate and highlight those transactions for time periods you define. You can work in multiple periods and you can isolate department, division and multi-company accounts. You can create supporting schedules for every account. Of course, you can set up automatic accruals, reversals and recurring entries. Structure performs all the standard functions of a powerful General Ledger system. But it’s the user-created capabilities that make it shine.

Create your own custom financial reports. Export a Trial Balance to a spreadsheet program for off-site auditing. Produce financial statements for unclosed periods, and for prior periods, at any time of the month.

And remember, because of Structure’s password-controlled access restrictions, you can set up dozens of authorization levels, for data entry, editing, analysis, report consolidation, design and output.

Committed but unbilled costs are part of every project and Structure automatically enters committed costs into the Job Cost Module. You can even analyze material received but not yet billed right off the packing slip. You can also set up vendor price matrices for calculating discounts on standard trade pricing, or generate spreadsheets to calculate pricing and then convert the data back to a P.O.
