PRINT DEPRECIATION COMPONENT INFORMATION BY BOOK REPORT

Use this report to print a snapshot of depreciation-related values in Asset Master records on a real-time basis, as the data currently exists, at any time. You can select one or more specific column values to print on the report (up to a maximum of eight) and select the column position on the page for the following data:

You can print data for all books, but you can select data only for a single book at a time. Data for each book displays on a different report page. You can print a summary report or a detail report that prints data asset-by-asset. You can print the data for any range of depreciation expense account allocation codes, asset/item numbers, asset accounts, organizations, and/or projects and/or depreciation expense accounts, organizations, and/or projects.

Use additional selection criteria to print project subtotals and to include the current period depreciation expense amount in the total displayed in the accumulated depreciation column. If you print a detail report, you can also print the Accumulated Depreciation Account Codes on the report. Sort options include by account, by organization, by account/organization, by accumulated depreciation account code, or by asset/item number. You can also use a page break option for all sorts other than by asset/item number.

You can also print data for active records, inactive records, disposals, depreciable records, and/or non-depreciable records. (For non-depreciable records, only the Total Cost column values are applicable.)

This report is designed to emulate spreadsheets that print depreciation component data in an easy-to-read format using side-by-side columns. You can print it only on legal-sized paper.

You can print this report at any time. Depreciation–related component data prints on a "real-time" basis exactly as the data exists in your Asset Master records at the time you run the report.

Location

Identification

Use the fields in this block to create a new parameter ID or to retrieve a previously saved parameter ID. A parameter ID represents a set of screen selection parameters. After you have saved a parameter ID and its related parameters, you can retrieve them using Query.

You can use the retrieved parameters to produce reports and run processes more efficiently and with greater consistency. The saved parameters are also useful and necessary when you want to run the process as part of a batch job. Many users save a unique set of parameters for each different way they run a report or process. When you select a previously saved parameter ID or parameter description, the associated saved screen selection parameters automatically display as selection defaults. The page setup and print options are also included in the saved parameter ID if there are any. You can change any of the associated selection defaults as necessary.

Parameter ID

Enter, or click to select, a parameter ID of up to 15 alphanumeric characters. Choose characters for your parameter ID that help identify the type of selections you made in the screen, such as PERIOD or QUARTERLY.

When you save your record, all the selections made in the screen are stored with the parameter ID. Later, you can retrieve the parameter using Query.

You can use the parameter to run the process more efficiently because you can select the parameter ID with its previously defined screen selections. After the default selections display in the screen, you can override the defaults.

Description

Enter, or click to select, a parameter description of up to 30 alphanumeric characters.

Accumulated Depreciation Total Option

Use the check box in this group box to include current period depreciation amounts in the accumulated depreciation totals.

Include Current Pd Depr Exp Amt in Accum Depr Column

Select this check box to obtain useful values from the report whenever you run it, both before and after you have computed depreciation.

If you leave this check box clear, the Accum Depr column will display only the total of the fiscal year-to-date and depreciation for all prior fiscal years. In this circumstance, any current period depreciation already computed will be excluded from the system-computed total accumulated depreciation total and the system-computed book value total. As a result, the total amounts displayed on the report for accumulated depreciation and book value will be different from those displayed in the corresponding Asset Master record.

If you want to include current period depreciation in the accumulated depreciation value displayed on the report, select this check box. In this circumstance, the total amounts displayed on the report for accumulated depreciation and book value will be identical to those displayed in the corresponding Asset Master record.

Print

Use the check box in this group box to print accumulated depreciation account code data on the report.

Accum Depreciation Acct Codes

This check box is available for use only if you have selected the Detail by Asset option in the Report Option group box.

Select this check box to print the Accum Depr Acct Code column. If this check box is clear, the system will not print this data on the report.

Sort By

In this group box, you can choose how the system organizes the data for the report.

However, the report always prints in the same format, regardless of the sort option you select. The sort option determines how data should be ordered within this format.

Use the check boxes in this group box to select page break and project total options.

1st Sort

Select the primary sort option from the drop-down list. The available options are:

Print Project Totals

This check box is available only if you select the Detail by Asset option in the Report Option group box.

Select this check box to print subtotals by project for the posted depreciation expense data.

Page Break

Select this check box if you want a page break in the report each time the selected sort parameter changes. For example, if you have selected to sort the data by account, you should select the Page Break check box if you want the data for each different account to begin printing on a separate page.

This check box is available only if you select the Detail by Asset option in the Report Option group box. If you choose Asset /Item No as the sort option, this check box is disabled.

If you want to use most of the same report selection parameters but want to run a slightly different report, you can use Copy Record to copy the parameters and make minor changes to them without changing your saved parameters. To use Copy Record, open the record you want to duplicate through Query (F11), select the record that you want to duplicate, and then go to the Line menu and select Copy Record (or press CTRL+E). The system makes a copy of the parameters, which you can edit and save as desired.
