Lease accounting for Microsoft Dynamics 365

Dynamics 365 Finance has an asset leasing module, but plenty of teams run Business Central or a configuration without it, and still need clean ASC 842 entries in the general journal. The calculation itself Dynamics won't do for you.

Start free How exports work

ROU Asset does the ASC 842 work and exports a general-journal CSV shaped for Dynamics: a posting date, document number, account, description, and a single signed amount per line. Approve, export, and import into the general journal. If your instance expects a different column set, clone the layout in the template builder.

  • Maturity, roll-forward, and disclosure reports that reconcile to 0.00

Microsoft Dynamics 365 questions

Business Central or Finance & Operations?

Either. Both import general-journal CSVs. The built-in uses a single signed amount, which Business Central's general journal reads directly; for Finance & Operations you can clone it and adjust columns to your import definition.

Signed amount or debit/credit columns?

The built-in Dynamics layout uses one signed Amount column. If you'd rather have separate debit and credit columns, clone it in the template builder and switch the amount mode — both produce the same balanced entry.
