Opposite asset acquisition values in Value model & Depreciation books

Posted on by Community Member

Hi,

I've posted 2 acquisitions to an asset by Asset journals. Here are the 2 transactions in the Value model:

0044.1.png

The Value model includes Derived depreciation books with Acquisition Transaction type. Below is the result in one of the depreciation books:

27073.2.png

Transaction 01.01.16: The Offset account = Bank.

Transaction 02.01.16: The Offset account = Ledger.

Could you please tell me why the 01.01.16 acquisition is a negative amount in the Depreciation book?

Many thanks in advance!

Hi S.,

I would imagine that somebody made a manual (and probably wrong) adjustment in the depreciation book journal. The voucher numbers are completely different and I would suggest that you check the journals that have been used for posting the 'normal' value model acquisition and the depreciation book transaction.

Best regards,

Ludwig

Hi Ludwig,

Thanks so much for your response.

Actually, 2 transactions were posted separately with 2 journals (15' ago, by me) and there was no other adjustment postings to the depreciation book.

The vouchers are OK:

Is there any other possibility that may cause this issue?

Hi S.,

Can you also try to identify whether some transactions have been recorded in the depreciation book journals?

I would imagine that some manual adjustments have been recorded there.

(Note that the transactions recorded in the depreciation book journals do not create vouchers).

Best regards,

Ludwig

Hi Ludwig,

There isn't any transactions in the depreciation book journals. And I posted the 2 transactions immediately after the asset have been created.

I've just tested in USMF and the result is the same (negative acquisition amounts in depreciation books where the Asset journal's offset account is Bank).

Could this be a bug in AX?

Hi Serene,

Ok. Thanks for that.

Can you please check with a developer whether one of the following Hotfixes might apply and fix your issue:

KB 3043238 Amount for derived depreciation book is wrong

Please note that there are a couple of other hotfixes available for download from LCS that do not directly relate to acquisition but acquisition adjustment and depreciation transactions. I believe it might be worthwhile that you ask a developer to have a look at those hotfixes as well that have been released with the latest release.

Best regards,

Ludwig

P.S. Would be great if you could keep us updated here

Hi Ludwig,

Thank you very much for your info!

I've been learning AX with the Contoso demo VM. We can't apply those hotfixes to a demo VM, can we? Is this bug still in AX 7?

Hi S.,

I cannot tell you whether the issue persists in AX7/D365f.O. because there have been some changes introduced to value models and depreciation books. For details, please see ax.help.dynamics.com/.../whats-new-or-changed-in-dynamics-365-for-operations

So, I would suggest that you get a D365f.O. demo machine and test again.

Best regards,

Ludwig
