ActivMan
What it is
ActivMan is Windows software for managing fixed assets, developed by McHil software B.V. and deployed on premises. It tracks economic, commercial, fiscal, insured, and replacement values, with current, past, and forecast information. Records can cover investments, disposals, costs, revaluations, additional depreciation, and forecasts. Other options include linking or splitting assets, rebooking, investment plan tracking, interest calculations, cost allocation, and locations. Filtered reports can be printed or exported, and journal entries can be delivered in formats for general ledger administration. An optional ODBC connection transfers entries directly to financial software that supports ODBC; Exact is a listed accounting integration. For schools, inventory can be organized by branch, building, floor, section, and room, with barcode-assisted inventory. ActivMan supports tax depreciation and multiple entities. Two annual-licence plans are listed: ActivMan/lite, which excludes revaluation, interest calculation, and currency codes, and ActivMan, described as the complete fixed asset management program. Neither plan has a stated price. The maker identifies accountants, businesses, administration offices, housing corporations, and schools as user groups.
