Department Number (Dept. No.)

The "Department Number" feature allows specified assets to be listed together by department on the federal depreciation and amortization detail report on an entity basis. The departments print in ascending numerical order, based on the "Department Number" entry. Subtotals print on the federal detail depreciation and amortization report for each department, category, and grand total. Enter any number up to 9999.

Enter a unique "Asset Number."
Enter the "Department Number."
Enter information to describe the department in "Description."
Leave all other information for this asset BLANK.
For every asset to be included in the specified department, enter the same department number, along with the necessary information to compute current depreciation amounts.

Note: When Depreciation and Depletion Options and Overrides > Depreciation Options > Sort Asset by Depletion Number on Detail Depreciation Report, has an "X" entered, assets are sorted by depletion number. To sort assets by department number and/or category code, Sort Asset by Depletion Number on Detail Depreciation Report field must be blank.
