Hello,

Thank you for your question.

I have not observed a similar issue here in Enterprise version 7.2 based on the elements you provided. Have you tried this in a later version?

It might be worth checking your Depreciation Model's yearly percentage tab in case it has some settings which might influence your depreciation.

Finally, here are more information regarding the meaning of "Purchase date" compared to "Start date":

- Purchase date is the date the asset was purchased. In the case of an Asset created from a Purchase Invoice, this will be taken from the Purchase Invoice Date. This date should agree with the Transaction Date used in the NominalLeger Transaction representing the purchase of this asset.

- The Start Date is the date when you will start using Hansa to record the depreciation of the Asset. Depreciation incurred prior to this date should be recorded in the Init. Depr 1 field. If the Depreciation Model uses the Straight Line depreciation method, the depreciation calculation will be based on the original Purchase Value. If it uses the Declining Balance depreciation method, the calculation will be based on the value at the start of the current financial year (i.e. the Purchase Value less the Initial Depreciation).
