Definition

Depreciation area, which is managed in the system as a real depreciation area (not a derived depreciation area).

Each depreciation area is set up to handle depreciation for a particular purpose (e.g. book depreciation, tax depreciation, group depreciation, cost-accounting depreciation, etc.)

Every depreciation area belongs to at least one chart of depreciation, and is managed independently from other depreciation areas. However, you can define depreciation areas so that it is possible to use one area to check the values of another area, or so that one area can take over values from another area.

You can also define derived depreciation areas. The values in a derived depreciation area are determined from the values of real depreciaton areas, using a mathematical relationship, which you define (for example, reserve for special depreciation).
