Good morning sayyed ar,
Many thanks for the update.
If 2020 is still 'open' and provided that you want to bring in this fixed asset, the first thing that you have to do is posting a fixed asset acquisition.
You can do that e.g. in a fixed asset journal in the FA module.
When doing that you have to clarify a couple of things with your accounting team.
Ex:
- What is the acquisition/posting date that you are going to use given that the fixed asset is from 2015.
- What is the offset account that you are going to use for this posting? (A bridging account, an equity account, etc.)
- In case you have an invoice for the fixed asset that shall be posted for the acquisition, you have to check if there is sales tax included because fixed asset journals don't handle tax and you would need to use another journal type
- Do you need a financial dimension to post the acquisition and the subsequent depreciations with?
Once you clarified these things and the acquisition is posted you can run the standard depreciation runs and get the depreciation posted in the different months in 2020 or in one sum for example on the last day of the year 2020.
Doing that might impact your monthly statements/reports that you have already submitted to your management. As a result, you might have to adjust them and explain your management.
Overall, I believe that posting the acquisition and the depreciation in AX is not the problem but rather the possible pitfalls around the system and the things that you need to clarify.
Best regards,
Ludwig
