How to manually enter an historical NBV

[former_member734418]

I'm attempting to add historical fixed assets into our SAP Business One database but the Historical NBV field is not available to input data. The import function doesn't seem to be working for me so manual entry looks like the only option.

The assets were purchased in 2020 and we have been calculating depreciation in Excel to this point. I'd like to start using the depreciation function in SAP but I'm unsure how to get it to calculate correctly without the ability to input the historical NBV.

Any help would be appreciated!

sarab0705,

The historical net book value should be entered in Historic APC field.

Thank You.

Where would the original acquisition cost be input?
