Hi Christopher,
First of all make sure that in 'Fixed Asset Type GL Mappings' you have set
the correct mapping. See here in
demo<
https://demo-trunk.ofbiz.apache.org:8443/accounting/control/FixedAssetTypeGlAccounts?organizationPartyId=Company>
.
The best way to do this is per Asset Type, as this will have you avoiding
to it per asset item.
Regards,
Pierre
