Hi

If we are talking about the finance lease then in the depreciation area we have to maintain another depreciation keys named as LEAS.

Once the depreciation keys is maintained we can create the assets . In the lease tab you have to maintain the necessary information with rgds the lease amount the period of the lease interest rate and the starting date of the lease once if you put all the informtion and save then display the assets you can get the calculate lese amount . once you click the botton it automatically calculate the proposed value of the installment and get posted.

the interest portion of the lease gets calculated when you periodically run the depreciation .

Hi

The customer has both types of leases, capitalized and operational. The Asset will be returned back to the ownwer at the end of lease.
