Odoo v14 Asset Depreciation

Migrating an asset from a non odoo business application with existing depreciations.

The asset Acquisition Date  is  03/jun/2021

with a Prorata Date of  03/jun/2021

and

Start Depreciating 30/jun/2021.

So far so good. Computing the Depreciation gives correct value per month.

30/06/21 174.38 €

31/07/21 186.83 €

etc....

Let’s say Client goes live with Odoo on 1st August thus we want to  eliminate the first two months of depreciations that is

30/06/21 174.38 €

31/07/21 186.83 €

 

I have tried all combinations of ' Existing Depreciation Schedule' but have been unsuccessful to eliminate the first two months and once I confirm they are always posted.


any feedback is appreciated


 (unfortunately  I cannot  attach  screenshots,  but  I  can  email  to  anyone  who  can  help)

You need to modify five fields:

1. What was already depreciated in the old system?

2. How many periods that represents?

3. When did the first depreciation happen in the old system?

4. How many periods are left in Odoo to depreciate?

5. When to start depreciating in Odoo?

Thank You @Ray Carnes. that was helpful and works well.

One other question which I have. Is there a way where the value of monthly depreciations are rounded and no decimals. Client had no decimals in legacy application and does not wants to round the values.

Thanks in advance

You would have to edit every Journal Entry on the depreciation schedule to remove the cents portion of the entry. We don't recommend this - a deficiency in a legacy system is a poor justification to change behavior in Odoo.

Thank you Ray and I agree.
