3412357 - Minor difference in amount encountered between Calculated and Expected depreciation value

Symptom

You encounter a small difference in Depreciation value between Total expected amount depreciation and calculated depreciation.

Environment

SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Open Fixed assets work center
  2. Under Fixed asset view open the relevant asset and and view all 
  3. You see a small difference in expected and calculated depreciation value

Cause

The issue is due the Rounding involved in the calculations. 

Resolution

To solve the issue open the valuation view configuration and the base value for rounding should be "No Rounding", so rounding is always deactivated. Whether it's on depreciation of Net Book Value, we'll always try to even it up in the system. If there should always be decimal places, rounding should be deactivated and base value for rounding as "No Rounding" - this is the only way to guarantee the decimal places.
