You use this program to maintain details relating to Capital Expenditure (Capex) numbers.
The Capex number identifies a group of purchases with a capital expenditure budget. As the company purchases goods/services related to a specific Capex number, the accumulated value of these purchases is compared to the maximum value defined against that Capex number.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| New | Select this to add a new capex number. |
| Delete | Select this to delete the currently displayed capex number. |
| Save | Select this to save the information you entered. |
| Capex | Indicate the Capex number for the capex item. It is not validated and can be any alphanumeric value up to 15 digits. |
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Capex Number Details | |
| Capex | This indicates the capex number you are currently maintaining. |
| Description | Enter the description for the capex number. |
| Authorized by user |
Specify a valid user code for the person authorizing the capital expenditure. If the requisition line value exceeds the Minimum capex requisition line value for checking routing (Purchase Orders Setup - Requisitions tab), then the requisition must be routed to this user at some stage before it is approved. |
| Maximum value of requisition |
Indicate the maximum value for which purchase order requisitions can be raised against this Capex item (i.e. the maximum value for all requisitions linked to this Capex number). As each requisition is added to the system, an accumulated value is held per capex number. The maximum value assigned to a capex number is for all purchase orders relating to that capex (i.e. not a maximum capex value per purchase order). For this reason, if a requisition value results in the maximum capex value being exceeded, then the purchase order is not created. The Purchase Order Setup option: Update capex during purchase order maintenance affects the accumulated capex value (Purchase Orders Setup - Requisitions tab). |
