Field help (FASDPM)

This field displays the depreciation method of the asset for the plan.
Only an active mode which the company, the company country and the plan are allowed to use, can be entered.
In the case when association of sections are set up for the financial asset, the method can be automatically determined from the Code (Accounting) and/or from the Group.
The choice of the mode is subject to the following restrictions:

• On a French company fiscal plan, the method can only be DF - French decreasing, LP - French straight-line, CA - Amortization expense or RA- Amortization expense residual.
• Methods CA - Amortization expense / Gross value or RA - Amortization expense / Net value can only be used on a plan other than the Grant plan and only if the asset holding type is In concession. If the management mode of the concession is Transmitted by Renewal, the depreciation method of the plan designated to manage the amortization expense must be:
  - AR - Amortization expense / Net V, when it comes to the 1st concession good
  - SA - Without Depreciation, when it comes to a renewing asset; its contribution is Grantee and its contribution type is Renewal
• The method OPE - Operation Units can only be used on a plan belonging to the context retained for the OPE management and only if the asset has been attached to a Production workbench.
• The depreciation method for a Pending asset is always:  SA - Without depreciation, unless the DEROENCOUR - Exceptional on pending fixed assets parameter is set to Yes; in this case, entering a depreciation method is authorized on the Fiscal plan.

The selection of the depreciation method, either entered or filled by associations, allows you to to load the Depreciation start date, either with the First use date, or the Purchase date, or the Accounting date, depending on the Depreciation method setup.
