Spanish term

realizar u operar las altas

Spanish to English Bus/Financial Finance (general) Finance Policies, Procedu
Hola,

Como de costumbre, tengo una duda con un término y me gustaría saber su opinión al respecto.

Responsabilidades de la administración de activos fijos
La administración de la institución tendrá bajo su responsabilidad los aspectos siguientes:
1. Administrar y controlar la base de datos del registro de los activos fijos.
2. Responsable de **realizar u operar las altas** de los activos fijos en la base de datos respectivas.

Mi duda, si no estoy equivocado es con "operar" o no sé si en este contexto, "realizar" y "operar" son sinónimos:

In charge of **entering** fixed assets in the corresponding database.

Alta y baja La 'alta' es el opuesto de 'dar de baja'. Solo que no se dice 'dar el alta;, pues esto se usa solo en medicina.
Manuel Aburto (asker) Sep 15, 2020:
Hi Taña,

According to my accounting dictionary "write off an asset" is "realizar/dar de baja definitiva a un activo", but I still haven´t found the English equivalent of "alta"

Maybe "asset acquisition"?
Taña Dalglish Sep 15, 2020:
@ Manuel How are you translating "altas"? Aren't these the "additions" to fixed assets? (perhaps I am reading this incorrectly).

"altas" means "including/entering" IMO

and should be "adding to" etc.
Note from asker:
Finance Policies and Procedures (Utility Management Series for Small Towns) 9.3.4 Closing Fixed Asset Accounts Pag. 155 Accountant: Record all additions, disposals, and movements of fixed assets. Post all monthly depreciation entries
Then, altas = additions, and bajas = disposal, I suppose.

In charge of registering or updating fixed assets in the corresponding database.

Unless you have other items in the list that explicitly instructs on amendments/additions/updates of fixed assets, I believe this is a good option.

Definition: Tangible book value, also known as net tangible equity, measures a firm's net asset value excluding the intangible assets and goodwill. In other words, it's how much all of the physical assets of a company are worth.

Spanish term (edited): Nic. > responsable de realizar u operar las altas

responsible for creating and inputting the additions

yes: altas are additions and bajas are disposals or.... 'retirements' of assets.

Again, I don't believe realizar / carry out on paper and operar / operate the insertion into the database or inputting of the assets are, even in Central America cf. manteca vs. mantequilla, strictly synonyms
Example sentence:

Set as default This facility is useful where you are entering a batch of assets which all belong to the same group, for example motor vehicles on the IRIS Chart.

1. Choose Mass Additions > Post Mass Additions from the Navigator. 2. In the Parameters window, specify the corporate book for which you want to post your mass additions.

I don't believe you should translate the two Spanish synonyms into English ones.
