AM180 - Depreciation Calculation and Listing
**Form purpose
Run Depreciation Calculation and Listing to compute depreciation for an asset
book or asset book group for a company or company group. Only assets that
have been released either online or by AM170 (Processing Release) are eligible
for depreciation calculation. You can run this program as often as you want.
An optional edit listing without depreciation calculation is also available.
**Decision/impact
- If you run this program on a regular asset book, AM180 calculates the
depreciation for each asset based on the depreciation method defined
individually for each asset.
- If you run this program for a Part 32 (asset class) book, AM180 calculates
the depreciation for each class of assets, based on the average asset account
balance in each of the asset class accounts, and on the depreciation
percentage defined for each account.
NOTE: For asset class depreciation, proper implementation is critical to
avoid over-depreciation. If you use this feature, you must strictly follow
the one-on-one correlation between a type and the set of General Ledger
accounts used by an asset class. For instance, you should not set up
class-depreciated assets that use the same asset account (that is, company,
accounting unit, account) but have different accounts for depreciation expense
and accumulated depreciation. In addition, when multiple class depreciation
books are used, all assets belonging to an asset class (referencing the same
asset account) must use the same class depreciation book.
**More help
Before you can close a period using AM190 (Period Close), you must process
all depreciable assets for a book through this program. (Use Compute option A
(All Assets).)
