10Hi All,
I've gone through a number of posts related to setting up new depreciation book for Fixed assets. The posts have been helpful, but I believed some of the links/threads within the posts are disconnected for some reasons.
We are still using AX version 2012. We have a requirement to setup a new depreciation book to capture different useful life and depreciation rates from the current one, as a result of a merger. Hence, we would like to bring in the new NBV, and from then on new useful life and depreciation rate. This NEW depreciation book will not need to post to GL, yet we are still able to run depreciation proposal. Can someone kindly advise what's the best way to go around this, please? If possible, we do not want to post it to any posting layers, as well. Understand in D365, there's a feature where we can choose not to post the transactions to GL.
To be fair, i've also done a few testing based on the previous posts here.
1. Set up a new depreciation book - STL1 (with new depreciation rates)
2. Set up a new value model - VM1 -set to tax posting layer
3. Assigned depreciation book (STL1) to VM1 as Derived depreciation book
4. Post new acquisition value (based on new NBV) to set the status to OPEN and posted to tax posting layer.
5. Run depreciation proposal, post depreciation proposal to tax posting layer.
** Sorry, i am pretty new to AX but experienced in other ERPs. Am wondering if there is a possibility to run the acquisition and depreciation for this new setup, and I don't post the journals. If so, it will stay in FA and we could have a report that pulls the data from FA tables. I've yet to do my research on this , as my finance just informed me that it should not be posted anywhere in finance whether it being Tax layer, etc. Reason could be we're not sure if there are any financial reports that do not filter out the posting layers, thus there is a huge risk.
Any advise is highly appreciated. Thank you so much for your time.
