Pro-rata depreciation on acquisitions or full months charge?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Member

All,

My depreciation period is by financial period, effectively monthly.  I need to understand the set up to either charge depreciation from the date of acquisition (pro-rata'd by no of days in the month) or to be able to charge the full month in the month of acquisition.

I can see the depreciation convention in the value model that could be either set to 'none' or 'full month' but not sure how this works.  It is simple Straight line dep'n with one value model (not currently in use).

thanks

    Hi,

    Full month means that AX posts the depreciation for the whole month in which a fixed asset is acquired even though the acquisition is posted in the last day of the month. None means that AX calculates depreciation on a daily basis. If you acquired your fixed asset e.g. On 31st Dec, AX will calculate the depreciation for Dec only for a single day.

    Hope it helps,

    Ludwig

    Just curiosity to know if user wants to calculate the depreciation based on the days like JAN -31 days , Feb -28 , March -31  , Aprial -30... what is the solution available in AX 2012 R2/ R3 ?

    Can we go with the above option or any other setup need to do ?
