      <Paragraph>All depreciation formulas vary based on the calculation mode you set for each
type of book in ERP Enterprise. If the calculation mode is periodic, ERP Enterprise considers each period to have the same number of days. If the calculation mode
is daily, ERP Enterprise uses the exact number of days in each period.</Paragraph>
      <Note>
         <SectionTitle>Note</SectionTitle>
         <Paragraph>ERP Enterprise calculates depreciation for each period in your company's calendar,
regardless of the calculation mode. For example, if the calendar has twelve
periods, ERP Enterprise calculates depreciation twelve times a year, regardless of
whether the calculation mode is daily or periodic.</Paragraph>
      </Note>
      <Paragraph>ERP Enterprise uses the frequency assigned to each of an asset's related books to
determine how often to record the resulting transactions. For example, if the
frequency is quarterly, ERP Enterprise groups the calculated amounts into quarterly
amounts and records the results once a quarter. For more information on
depreciation, see the topic, <Link href="/baanerp/tf/onlinemanual/000100" role="manual">Depreciating Assets</Link>.</Paragraph>
