Fixed assets take-on to allow entry of life-to-date depreciation

SUGGESTED

Good day

I am using the depreciation method UL. 

I want to create an asset and enter the book value and the life to date depreciation. 

Currently the depreciation total field is not open, which means the moment I create the asset the depreciation method automatically change to method SA.

    Hi Braam

    Did you ever manage to resolve this one?

    The depreciation total is not open by default when you capitalize a new asset, but the default to SA sounds strange.

    If you want to enter depreciation to date, then I assume you want to create a new asset that is already in use for a number of months/years? If this is the case, then is the amendment (back-date) of the In Service Date field not the way to go? It does come with some parameter value setup should the start date be in a previous closed fiscal year.
