Calculatory books

The Calculatory book type permits methods of depreciation specific to European requirements. This book is not allowed to become the posting book in the FAM Parameters (tffam0500m000) session. You can select a check box in the Asset Books (tffam1510m000) session to enable posting. Additional posting is allowed, which allows extra posting of a fixed amount and/or method. Both economic recapture and additional posting amounts will always post.

Calculatory books have no subtypes and they use the section 179 value in depreciation calculation if entered. Economic Recapture is valid for only this book. Economic Recapture posts the total of depreciation and additional posting to economic recapture accounts indefinitely. This book type uses the calculatory account type in the integration mapping scheme to determine debit and credit accounts for posting. The Annuity depreciation method is valid for only this book type. This is principal depreciation based on an interest rate.
