Written by Utegration | Mar 7, 2022

Houston, TX - March 7, 2022  - Utegration, LLC today announced that the latest release of its SAP-certified solution, Finance4U® Extended Asset Accounting (EAA) solution is now available on SAP® Store, the online marketplace for SAP and partner offerings.

As a certified add-on to SAP S/4HANA®, Finance4U EAA enhances SAP’s standard fixed asset module to handle the unique capitalization, group depreciation, and retirement processes for asset-intensive industries, compliant to the accounting requirements from regulatory agencies such as FERC (Federal Energy Regulatory Commission), FCC (Federal Communication Commission), and NARUC (National Association of Regulatory Commissioners). This version of Finance4U Extended Asset Accounting has been licensed at both regulated and non-regulated utilities in North America to address asset accounting regulatory requirements.  

“With Finance4U Extended Asset Accounting, customers will be delighted to find the core SAP ERP system is now fully capable of handling crucial processes like Retirement Unit-based capitalization process, group depreciation, and regulated asset retirement and more,” said Kai Bi, managing director of product development at Utegration. “Most importantly, it greatly increases customers’ return on their investment in SAP S/4HANA by simplifying the system landscape, reducing data replication and reconciliation, increasing transparency, and perhaps best of all, automating and simplifying the work for asset accountants, so that they can focus more on analysis, control, and decision making.”    

Asset-intensive industries, such as utilities, energy, telecommunications, and railways benefit from this solution through: 

  • Automation of the asset capitalization process 
  • Increased transparency on asset balances and cost components of capital expenditure 
  • Enable early depreciation through CCNC (Construction Completed Not Classified) 
  • Ensured compliance with regulations and new accounting standards, such as ASC 842 (lease accounting) 
  • Increased efficiency on daily operations and month-end close 
  • Rich analytics to support depreciation studies and rate case filings 
  • Elimination of third party, standalone fixed asset systems, reducing Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
