What you're looking at here is the login screen of Asset Accountant with the listing of asset
0:08
groups down on the left hand side here.
0:11
Now for some reasoning and for posting your journals and for organizing your fixed asset
0:16
register, you may wish to add an extra level hierarchy and have a parent and child type
0:23
structure.
0:24
So I will show you how to do this now.
0:27
So next to the asset groups that you would like to exist under a parent arrangement,
0:33
I'm going to say Computer Equipment, Furniture and Fittings and Office Items, Instant Asset
0:38
Write Off I want under a parent.
0:41
So it is as simple as editing the asset group and over here in parent group, we might just
0:48
call this Office Stuff and just copy that because we will use it later and save the
0:56
asset group and what you will notice now when I go back to the main screen is that
1:02
we have a parent here, Office Stuff.
1:06
Now let's add some of the other ones, Furniture and Fittings.
1:09
We just go through exactly the same process.
1:13
I'll paste Office Stuff, save it, go back to the screen and let's go the Office Items
1:20
Instant Asset Write Off and do the same and save that.
1:26
So now when we go to our screen, main screen, you will see that we have a parent group called
1:32
Office Stuff and under that belongs the three child asset groups that will be reflected
1:38
in the journals also.
