First you setup an asset as DV method for instance (current method) and the %, and put the cost and Accum depr. and last period in the balance that matches the current data while not connected to the GL.
Then when u use run depreciation process (or calculate), the system calculates what the depreciation should be up to that period, and the difference from what was posted to what is calculated, will be posted into the first period after. It has been doing this for some time now. So its like an adjusting entry, and there is nothing you can do to stop it.
What you could do is load up two assets for the one asset, so the second asset's cost is actually the remaining value when the new method started. that would be your only way to do it as Myob simply does not do that process of changing methods mid way through.
Hi LeanneB_Horizon ,
Just to check my understanding, as said I'm sure you're more active in Fixed Assets than I am on the regular.
Doesn't the Depreciation Table Methods (FA202600) feature allow for this, admittedly by requiring you to specify the depreciation for the foreseeable future of the asset manually?
Curious if you've tried the feature mostly,
Best Regards,
