Budget planning in Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Operations (AX) can leverage a lot of source documents for preparing budget plans.
One such source document is fixed assets. This should be read as fixed asset budget for depreciation.
Sharing high level steps and screenshots to run an end to end scenario of preparing a budget plan for fixed assets:
- In the fixed assets module, create and post fixed asset budget journal
- Utilize out of box capability to create depreciation proposal for a date range.
- Review and update the proposal and then post it to fixed asset budget
- Next we move to budgeting module to generate the budget plan. Assuming you have done all the required configuration as budget planning is highly setup intensive.
- Provide all the necessary parameters to generate budget plan from fixed assets (budget).
- Once budget is generated, verify details, make changes and submit.
- The lines in budget plan looks as below:

Dynamics 365 Operations (AX): Budget Planning for fixed assetsHi Rahul,Nice blog on fixed asset depreciation planning.I would like to the opportunity to learn more about the Fixed asset acquisition planning process, actually I was exploring the Budget under fixed asset module and have following concerns:1. While posting the fixed asset budget journal there is an offset account, why do we need to define the offset account as even after posting the voucher posted doesn't have the financial entry.2. And after transferring to the budget register entries for each budget line there is a corresponding negative line, I believe that came because we defined the offset account while passing the budget journal.3. Also, after doing the setup, i make a transaction and while reviewing the Actual Vs Budget inquiry I didn't find the consumption.Regards,Imran Ul Haq
