Asset Management

Manage long-term investments (fixed assets) following mandatory SYSCOHADA valuation rules.

Core Principles

Valuation

The acquisition cost includes:

  1. Net Purchase Price (Account 24x/22x/21x).
  2. Installation & Transport Costs.
  3. Dismantling Provisions (Account 1984).

The Golden Rule of Investment

In SYSCOHADA, investment debt is managed via account 4812 (Fournisseurs d'investissements) instead of the operational account 4011.

Asset Acquisition Example

const journal = ohada.recordAsset({
assetName: "Server Dell",
type: 'COMPUTER_EQUIPMENT',
amount: 2500000,
transport: 50000,
vatRate: 18,
payment: { method: 'bank', amount: 3009000 }
});

Advanced Features

Component Splitting

For large assets with components having different useful lives (e.g., an elevator in a building), the library supports splitting the cost into multiple debit lines.

Dismantling Provision

Automate the recognition of future dismantling or site restoration costs as part of the asset value.
