Which Costpoint Fixed Assets processes can or cannot be run simultaneously by multiple users?

Compute Depreciation

This process is a USER-locking application, in which several users can process at the same time as long as they are logged into Costpoint with different user IDs.

Note: One method by which depreciation calculations can be speeded up is for different users to simultaneously compute depreciation, each using a different range of asset/item numbers.

Post Fixed Assets Journal

This process is a SINGLE-locking application, in which only one user at a time can access the application. If you click the Default Action button on the Compute Depreciation screen while posting is in progress, the system displays a message stating that you must complete the posting before you can compute depreciation. When you run "Test" on the Close Fixed Assets Accounting Period screen while posting is in progress, the system displays a message stating that you cannot close the period until the posting is complete. If a posting is in progress while you are editing Asset Master records, the Save button will be disabled for any asset being posted that has a posting sequence number.

Close Fixed Assets Accounting Period

This process is a SINGLE-locking application, in which only one user at a time can access the application. If you try to access the Compute Depreciation screen while a close process is in progress, the system displays a message stating that you cannot compute depreciation until the close is complete. If you try to access the Post Fixed Assets Journal while a close is in progress, the system displays a message stating that you cannot post until the close is complete. If a close is in progress while you are editing Asset Master records, the Save button on the G/L Book Info tab and Other Book Info subtask will be disabled for any records being processed by the close.
