7 New and Changed Features for Assets in R12 (Continued) Industry specific Enhancement 6) Enhanced Functionality for Energy Industry

8 Enhanced Mass Additions for Legacy conversions

10 Enhanced Mass Additions for Legacy conversions In the past customers had to override the values that defaulted from Asset Category.

11 Enhanced Mass Additions for Legacy conversions New attributes WebAdi has been enhanced to include the additional Columns

12 Enhanced Mass Additions for Legacy conversions Demonstration

13 Enhanced Mass Additions for Legacy conversions Demonstration Scenario Add an asset with depreciation method different from that of the Asset Category

14 Enhanced Mass Additions for Legacy conversions Implementation Considerations WebAdi Define Layout and Create Mapping have these additional columns that can be set up during implementation

35 Enhanced Functionality for Energy Industry

36 Enhanced Functionality for Energy Industry 1) Energy Units of Production Method for Group Assets Allow Production method for Group Assets Allow Production upload to Group Assets Net Book Value x (Production for the Period / Net Remaining Production Capacity) Net Remaining Production Capacity = Total Capacity Production used to date

37 Enhanced Functionality for Energy Industry 2) Energy Straight line Method Net Book Value / Remaining Life

38 Global Considerations Global Descriptive Flexfield Migration for Greece Information stored in descriptive flexfields for Greece - Commitment and Investment law are upgraded to named fields in the Asset Workbench.
