A list, a good accurate list, of fixed asset items documents the \u201cnitty gritty details\u201d of which assets you own, for example.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s more, if you get nicely organized in the way you track these items, you can group fixed asset items under broad account names so your balance sheet is clean and easy to read. For example, if you\u2019ve purchased (say) twenty pieces of furniture, you don\u2019t want twenty different line items on your balance sheet\u2014you want one line item labeled \u201cfurniture.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One more point about fixed asset item lists: Good, accurate rich details on your fixed asset items also track a lot of useful information you\u2019ll need to calculate tax depreciation properly. Note that your tax accountant will actually do a lot of this work for you\u2014and that\u2019s the way you probably want to roll. But you don\u2019t lose by having good details inside your QuickBooks file. You win in all sorts of little ways\u2014such as by not losing track of items you\u2019ve purchased and such as by seeing items you\u2019ve discarded and so need to write off.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Track a Fixed Asset Item in QuickBooks<\/h2>\n<p>Your first step when recording a fixed asset should be to record the fixed asset item in QuickBooks. To do this, go to <u>L<\/u>ists \u2192 <u>F<\/u>ixed Asset Item List. QuickBooks displays the Fixed Asset Item List window (see Figure 1).<\/p>\n<p>Next, in the bottom left corner, click the \u201c<u>I<\/u>tem\u201d button, then click \u201c<u>N<\/u>ew.\u201d This will open the New Fixed Asset Item dialog box which you can use to enter information about the asset you\u2019ve acquired. Be sure to provide the name of the asset, which account the asset belongs to, and all of the information requested in the \u201cPurchase Information\u201d section.<\/p>\n<p>Note that most of the information requested in the \u201cAsset Information\u201d section might be helpful to track, but isn\u2019t necessary to enter (at least as far as your tax accountant is concerned). The one exception might be location if your business operates in multiple states.<\/p>\n<p>Once you\u2019re done entering information about your fixed asset item, click the blue \u201cOK\u201d button in the upper-right corner.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2855\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2855\" style=\"width: 734px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/evergreensmallbusiness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/fixed-asset-item.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2855 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/evergreensmallbusiness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/fixed-asset-item.png\" alt=\"the fixed asset item window\" width=\"734\" height=\"513\" srcset=\"https:\/\/evergreensmallbusiness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/fixed-asset-item.png 734w, https:\/\/evergreensmallbusiness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/fixed-asset-item-300x210.png 300w, https:\/\/evergreensmallbusiness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/fixed-asset-item-622x435.png 622w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 734px) 100vw, 734px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2855\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Figure 1<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Creating a Fixed Asset Account<\/h2>\n<p>You might have to create a new asset account for the fixed asset item.<\/p>\n<p>You can add accounts to QuickBooks in a variety of ways, but to do this while you\u2019re describing the fixed asset item, first select the field labelled \u201cAsset Account.\u201d Next, scroll to the top of the list of accounts and click \u201c&lt;Add New&gt;.\u201d QuickBooks displays the Add New Account dialog box (see Figure 2).

Once you select the fixed asset item(s) you created for this purchase, QuickBooks will automatically enter the purchase amount into the check. Note that you can select more than one fixed asset item for the same purchase. See Figure 5 for an example.<\/p>\n<p>All you have to do next is enter a vendor and a memo like you would for any other check you write, and then click \u201cSave &amp; Close\u201d (or \u201cSave &amp; New\u201d if you have multiple checks to write, of course).<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2856\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2856\" style=\"width: 941px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/evergreensmallbusiness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/fixed-asset-purchase.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2856 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/evergreensmallbusiness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/fixed-asset-purchase.png\" alt=\"fixed asset purchase\" width=\"941\" height=\"595\" srcset=\"https:\/\/evergreensmallbusiness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/fixed-asset-purchase.png 941w, https:\/\/evergreensmallbusiness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/fixed-asset-purchase-300x190.png 300w, https:\/\/evergreensmallbusiness.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/fixed-asset-purchase-622x393.png 622w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 941px) 100vw, 941px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2856\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Figure 5<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>After you\u2019ve recorded the purchase, the fixed assets will show up on your balance sheet as of the purchase date (see Figure 6).
