Depreciation Schedule Report (Net Book Value and Period Depreciation)
The depreciation schedule net book value report shows the asset's current value for the specified period. The depreciation schedule period depreciation report shows the total depreciation of each asset for the specified period. The system assumes that depreciation history records with blank Accounting Book fields are for the Primary Book. In the depreciation schedule report, these DHRs are displayed under the Primary Book.
The depreciation schedule report can also group and display the depreciation and net book values by 4-4-5 week periods. The report uses accounting periods as column headers instead of calendar months. You'll see this change in the report if the following conditions are met:
-
The account uses the 4-4-5 Weeks accounting period.
-
The Use Accounting Period Dates For Depreciation preference is enabled to record depreciation histories correctly. For more information, see Fixed Assets General Preferences.

The period names match their column position in the report. For example, Period 1, Period 2, and so on. These are different from the names of the accounting periods. Period names are sourced from the Manage Accounting Periods page. For more information, see Manage Accounting Periods Page.
