Hi All,

I have created a new fixed asset.

Than i created a new fixed asset group and assign the group to the fixed asset i had created.

I also assigned value model and depreciation book to that fixed asset.

Now what should the next step?

Any assistance in this perspective would be highly appreciated

Hi, Depreciation book is not used for calculating depreciation, but for keeping the copy of assets records with different depreciation profiles and rates.

Try these steps :

FA group > Value model > Depreciation profile (with calendar setup) > Attach VM to FA group, and Dep profile to VM.

Create asset with the FA group and VM > Check depreciation periods in VM of FA

Post acquisition entry > Create depreciation proposal and post.

Hi Priyanka,

I would like to know one thing , do we need to assign the Fiscal calender or Fiscal year in the depreciation profile ? and what is use of this calender ?

Hi Ameen

The Calendar is used for calculating depreciation. Depreciation year -

Calendar – Updates the basis for depreciation calculation every year on the first of January.

Fiscal – Updates depreciation based on the fiscal year set up, General ledger > Setup > Periods> Periods.
