Capitalized cost is the amount being registered from the selected acquisition evidence. The source selector can prefill its available amount, but you should still compare that amount with the asset and supporting acquisition record.
Confirm the source journal, company and currency, then review Capitalized cost and Residual value together. The schedule uses those values to determine planned depreciation. A correct-looking monthly amount is not enough if the underlying cost was linked to the wrong acquisition.
If the source includes more than the asset you intend to register, use only the amount supported by the current workflow and your reviewed evidence. Respect the source's available balance. Do not reuse an amount already allocated to another asset or manufacture a balancing acquisition.
Inspect Schedule preview before saving and verify the retained Cost afterward. Registration does not duplicate the purchase, and later schedule changes should preserve the original evidence. If the acquisition itself is wrong, review that source journal's correction path before trying to compensate through an arbitrary depreciation estimate.
