(RUS) Set up depreciation groups
Applies To: Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R3, Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R2
Depreciation groups are defined for the value model for a fixed asset. Depreciation groups describe the depreciation profile, the service life, and the parameters for deferrals that are generated when a fixed asset is depreciated.
Click Fixed assets (Russia) > Setup > Depreciation groups.
In the Value model field, select the value model that the depreciation group is defined for.
Create a line.
In the Depreciation group and Name fields, enter the depreciation group code and name for the depreciation group.
In the Depreciation method field, select a depreciation method for the depreciation group.
On the General FastTab, in the Lifetime field, enter the maximum service life, in years, during which depreciation is accrued for the fixed assets in the depreciation group.
In the Minimal depreciation field, enter the minimum depreciation amount when you use the Reducing remainder depreciation method.
In the Depreciation start date field, select the type of starting date for depreciation from the following options:
From month when put into operation – Depreciation is calculated from the first day of the month when the fixed asset is put to use after acquisition.
Next month start – Depreciation is calculated from the month after the fixed asset is put to use after acquisition.
Next quarter start – Depreciation is calculated from the quarter after the fixed asset is put to use after acquisition.
Next half year start – Depreciation is calculated from the half-year after the fixed asset is put to use after acquisition.
Next year start – Depreciation is calculated from the year after the fixed asset is put to use after acquisition.
Click the Deferrals FastTab.
In the left pane, click Disposal to set up parameters to create deferrals on the disposal of fixed assets that accrue a loss. Click Partial dismantlement to create deferrals on the partial write-off of fixed assets that accrue a loss.
Nota
When you create a transaction for the partial write-off or disposal of a fixed asset, if the transaction causes a loss, the transaction details are posted to a deferral account. This account contains the values of the calculated loss and the write-off time. The write-off time is calculated by using the fixed asset depreciation factor and the difference between the useful life of the depreciated asset and the actual period that the asset is used before disposal.
In the right pane, press CTRL+N to create a line.
In the Model number field, select the model number of the deferral.
In the Deferrals group field, select the deferrals group for deferred expenses.
In the Expense code field, select the expense code for deferrals.
