This topic provides information about the elements in this window in Visma Net, such as fields, field values, buttons, and check boxes.

In this window, you can view the balance of the selected account (and subaccount, if any)
that was accumulated by means of fixed assets linked to that account.
The table in this window
shows the list of fixed assets with the balances posted to the selected account from the
time when the asset had been placed in service through the specified financial period
(**Inception to date**), from the beginning of the year through the
specified financial period (**Year to date**) and during the specified
financial period (**Period to date**).
