AMMETHOD FILE
Method
The Method file stores the Lawson-defined and optional user-defined methods
that asset books use to calculate depreciation, replacement cost, and
insurance values. Lawson Software supplies the following standard methods:
straight line; 125, 150, 175, and 200 percent declining balance; and sum of
the years digits. These standard methods cannot be customized. The following
kinds of methods can be user-defined: compute statements, annual percent
tables, and annual and period units of production tables.
Each record in this file should have an associated record defined in one of
the following files: Compute, Percent Table, or Units of Production Periods.

FIELD NAME DESCRIPTION/VALID VALUES UPDATED BY
AMM-METHOD Alpha 10 AM02.1 AM02.2
Element: Method Methods are used by asset books to AM550
calculate depreciation, replacement
cost, and insurance values. Standard
depreciation methods are predefined.
Additional methods can be user-defined
for the following kinds of methods:
compute statements, annual percent
tables, and annual and period units of
production tables. Valid predefined
methods are as follows:
SL = Straight Line.
200DB = 200 percent declining balance.
175DB = 175 percent declining balance.
150DB = 150 percent declining balance.
125DB = 125 percent declining balance.
SYD = Sum of the year's digits.
AMM-DESCRIPTION Alpha 30 (Lower Case) AM02.1 AM02.2
Element: Description The description of the method. AM200 AM550
AMM-METHOD-TYPE Alpha 1 AM02.1 AM02.2
Element: Method Type This field identifies the kind of AM550
calculation that the method defines.
Valid values are:
D = Depreciation. (Includes all
predefined methods.)
I = Insurance.
R = Replacement.
AMM-RECORD-TYPE Alpha 1 AM02.1 AM02.2
Element: Record Type This field identifies the kind of AM550
method record that is defined. Valid
values are:
C = Compute Statement. An associated
record should be defined in the Compute
file.
P = Percent Table. An associated record
should be defined in the Percent Table
file.
U = UOP Table. An associated record
should be defined in the Units of
Production Periods file.
AMM-CATEGORY-TYPE Alpha 1 AM02.1 AM02.2
Element: Category Type This Field is used to indicate whether AM550
the method is a Lawson defined or user
defined depreciation, insurance, or
replacement method.
L = Lawson
U = User
AMM-METH-STATUS Alpha 1 AM02.1 AM02.2
Element: Method Status This field identifies the status of the AM550
method record. Valid values are:
A = Active.
I = Inactive.
AMM-OPT-METHOD Alpha 10 AM02.1 AM02.2
Element: Optional MethoThe depreciation optimizing method AM550
assigned to the record, if applicable.
AMM-TOTAL-UNITS Signed 17.0 AM02.1 AM02.2
Element: Total Units For a units of production table method, AM550
this field contains the total estimated
units of production.
AMM-SL-CALCULATION Alpha 1 AM02.1 AM02.2
Element: All Flag This field indicates the method of AM550
straight line depreciation to use when
the method switch is SL (straight line).
Blank = Default, SL method switch
comparison and calculation using
remaining asset values.
O = SL method switch comparison and
calculation using original assets
values.
M = SL method switch comparison using
orig asset values, calculation based on
remaining asset values
D = Default
N = Not applicable
AMM-CREATION-DATE Numeric 8 (yyyymmdd) AM02.1 AM02.2
Element: Creation Date The system date the method record was AM550
created.
AMM-CREATION-TIME Numeric 6 (hhmmss) AM02.1 AM02.2
Element: Creation Time The system time the method record was AM550
created.
AMM-CREATOR-ID Alpha 10 AM02.1 AM02.2
Element: Creator ID The login identification of the AM550
operator who created the method record.
AMM-OPT-METH-DESC Derived
Optional Method The description of the depreciation
Description optimizing method assigned to the method
record, if assigned.
