Definition

For acquisitions, this is the period after which (and excluding) the system calculates depreciation. For retirements, this is the period up to which (and including) the system calculates depreciation.

Depreciation is calculated from or to the end of the period. For this calculation the first period is always the period 000. In other words, if you want to calculate depreciation from the beginning of the fiscal year you must specify the period 000 (or leave the field blank).
