Open the registered asset and review Next period. The notice shows the planned amount and explains whether the month must end before preparation is available. Choose Prepare next monthly journal only for the eligible period under current access and book settings.
Inspect the asset's cost, posted depreciation, current method and any approved future estimate before preparing. If a pending correction or policy review exists, resolve it through the supported controls first. A planned row should not be treated as a posted charge.
Preparation submits one source-linked journal. Use Review journals to inspect the request and complete the action allowed by your current posting permissions. Confirm the resulting saved journal status before reporting that depreciation was recorded.
Return to the asset and refresh its schedule and posted-depreciation figure. The Journal column and retained activity establish which period was posted. Do not create an unrelated manual depreciation entry just because the asset screen has not yet refreshed after a successful journal action.
