Actual Acquisition Date for migrated fixed assets
Introduction
This Actual Acquisition Date for migrated fixed assets feature is available in 10.0.46 version.
Purpose
This feature introduces a new field called Actual acquisition date to record the original acquisition date of fixed assets that are migrated from legacy systems. It helps organizations maintain historical asset information after data migration.
