4. 4 SMART – Asset Management Asset (CNV009): Conversion of fixed asset information, including financial and physical attributes, such as original cost, categorization and description. Asset Conversion Method: Upload: Assets will be converted by submitting asset data extracts in the file format for upload into SMART. A data entry template will be provided for low-volume data sets. Converting into SMART Agencies are required to load all fixed assets with a value >$5K into SMART and are encouraged to load those with a value <$5K so that agency assets are in a single system and a more complete listing is provided for the State. Any assets, such as laptops or PDAs, can be managed and tracked in SMART.

5. 5 Cost: Original cost required for all assets. In Service Date: Date asset was placed into service, impacts depreciation. Split-funding of accounting: Asset accounting can be split over multiple funding strings. Transaction lines must be incremented properly to load accurately. Retired Assets: Retired assets should not be converted. Converting into SMART Functional Considerations
