There is no such thing as Fixed Asset Item.

One cannot decide on this at the item definition level. When items are procured, a buyer could choose some internal consumption purchases to be capitalized. And those are driven by the accounts at the PO distribution/sub ledger accounting setups. Some of them can be procured and simply stocked and re-sold.

Hence, not all purchases for that item should auto capitalize. So, the customer (or the implementer) should be looking at something at the PO/distribution level to filter out receipts and not at the item level.

On the other hand. there could have been default attributes(in EBS) at the item level which enables the item for easy capitalization. All of that can be overridden at the po level.

If this is something that is unique to the customer, they could setup DFF and differentiate items that way.
