Before You Begin

Before you can use FABweb you must set up security access.

Begin

To process a new acquisition in FABweb:

1. Log on to FABweb.
2. Select "Process a New Acquisition for Banner Fixed Assets."
3. Select the asset.
4. Continue through the FABweb tabs.
5. The asset record is forwarded to University Property Accounting and Reporting (UPAR) who reviews and submits it to Banner. This generates property labels. If you do not receive your labels within 4 weeks, contact UPAR.
6. If the equipment is used in a self-supporting operation, complete and submit the Entity Code Change Request form.

If an enhancement or upgrade is being made to existing equipment, treat it as a new acquisition. Indicate the parent-child relationship when processing the new acquisition in FABweb.
