Depreciable Basis Field, FA Depreciation Book Table
Shows the depreciable basis amount for the fixed asset as a FlowField. The depreciable basis is usually defined as (Acquisition Cost plus Appreciation) minus (Write-Down plus Salvage Value). In the FA Posting Type Setup window, it is possible to define that the depreciable basis must be calculated otherwise.
The program calculates the contents of the field using the entries in the FA Ledger Entries window. To see the ledger entries that make up the amount shown, click the field.
When you post additional entries to the depreciation book, the value in the field may change accordingly. You cannot change or delete the contents of the field directly.
Depreciable basis is used to calculate depreciation:
By the Calculate Depreciation batch job if the Depreciation Method is Straight-Line and the Straight-Line % field is filled in.
By the Calculate Depreciation batch job if the Depreciation Method is User-Defined.
When the program calculates depreciation of an additional acquisition cost. (Read about this in help for the Depr. Acquisition Cost field.)
When the program calculates depreciation below zero (see Allow Depr. below Zero).
