Compress Depreciation Field, Depreciation Book Table

A check mark in this field indicates that the system will automatically compress multiple depreciation lines in the General Ledger, the result will be a single entry for each category.

If this option is not marked and you run the Depreciation Calculation process from Fixed Assets, Periodic Activities, the system generates one line for each single asset. For example, running depreciation which effects 100 assets will result in 100 lines posted both to the General Ledger and in the FA Ledger Entries.

If the Compress Depreciation checkbox is marked the system will create a single entry in the General Ledger if all of the following categories are the same:

  • Fixed Assets Class

  • Depreciation Method

  • Depreciation Code

  • Source

  • Posting Date

  • Dimension

In order to use this functionality follow the below procedures :

  1. Open the FA Depreciation Book and select the Integration Tab. Unmark the depreciation checkbox and custom 1 and custom 2 checkbox.

  2. Run the depreciation from the Periodic Activities.

  3. Open the FA Journals and post the entries from there.
