Defining a 4-4-5 calendar

If you want a 4-4-5 week depreciation posting schedule, you must define a 4-4-5 calendar. This procedure outlines the process for defining 4-4-5 calendars.

Before you define a 4-4-5 calendar, you should define a book with an Actual Days (AD) depreciation convention. This will provide the most accurate calculation of depreciation for an asset's first and last years.

Define a 4-4-5 calendar

  1. Access Current Calendar (AM01.1).
  2. Define the 4-4-5 calendar. Specify this information:
    Total Periods

    Specify the total number of periods for the calendar (52 or 53).

    The number of periods in this field must match the total number of periods you specify in the Per (Depreciation Period) fields.

    Per (Depreciation Period)

    To define a 4-4-5 week depreciation posting schedule, define four or five depreciation periods for the calendar period.

    The total number of depreciation periods you specify here must match the number of periods you specify in the Total Periods field.
