Display Calculation dialog

Show all expandable content
This window in the asset module displays an explanation of how depreciation is calculated for the current asset. If the application automatically limited the calculated depreciation for any reason, it displays a commentary line at the bottom of the window. Note that the application defaults to displaying the calculation for the column in the Depreciation tab of the Asset Detail window where the cursor was located when you chose Tasks, then Display Calculation. You can select a different treatment if desired.
If the current asset is an aggregate asset, this window also lists each component asset. The explanation in the the window corresponds to the selected component asset.
This window is accessible when the Asset Detail window is open. Select Tasks, Display Calculation or select the column heading for the desired treatment to open the Display Calculation window.
