Description of Issue
Can leasing information for capital assets be tracked for GASB 87 requirements?
Context
Fixed/Capital Assets
Cause
Resolution
Munis does not provide an automated mechanism for tracking of leases, lease amortization schedules, or scheduled lease payments
Additional Information
Recommendations for tracking on your own:
- During the initiation of the lease, post a general journal entry
- Asset can be recorded in the Capital Assets module and amortized
- After initiation of lease, lease payments can be made from Accounts Payable for the lessee or from General Billing for the lessor
- At year end, amortize asset
- Lease accounting can be sent to the CAFR Statement Builder
