Fixed Assets CS Review

December 8th, 2024 • Role: End User

I personally use ATX and it’s fixed asset program is 100% better than UT that I use at work

Pros

When you first open the product, it looks impressive and like it will help you choose an asset life for your asset. However, it does not.

Cons

It will let you do anything you want and will not give you an error when choosing an impermissible method. It is hard to find where to elect out of bonus. I have a hard time getting the maximum depreciation on autos/SUV's to work
