Fixed Asset Group (FGRP)
Fixed Asset Group (FGRP) is used to identify and describe the kind of fixed asset on a more detailed level than the fixed asset type. You must assign every fixed asset to a fixed asset group.
The fixed asset group is the most detailed level of the fixed asset type hierarchy. The progression is as follows: 1. group; 2. group class; 3. group category, and 4. type.
For example, within type
E
(equipment), a group category could be office equipment, a class within that could be typewriters, and one group within that would be IBM Selectric Typewriters.
