Setting up an insurance class record

You can set up insurance classes to group and record assets according to similar insurance inflation and depreciation rates.

After you’ve set up an insurance class, you can assign the insurance class to asset classes in the Class Setup window. When you add an asset record to your system, the insurance class that you enter in the Class Setup window will be the default entry for the asset in the Asset Insurance window.

Use the Insurance Setup window to enter insurance class ID records.

To set up an insurance class record:

  1. Open the Insurance Setup window. (Financial >> Setup >> Fixed Assets >> Insurance)
