      <Paragraph>When you specify default
		books, you indicate which books are required and which book is the default
		posting book or default ADR book. When you create an asset, an asset book
		relationship is created for all the default books. Required books are
		associated with all assets for a company and cannot be removed from assets with
		which they have been associated.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>The default-posting book
		sends journal entries to the posting book for all assets for the company. Only
		one book can be the default posting book. This book must be of the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tf/domains/fam.btyp#fina" role="option">Financial</GUIRef> or <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tf/domains/fam.btyp#comm" role="option">Commercial</GUIRef> book type.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>The default ADR book
		updates the vintage account for the assets cost, accumulated depreciation, and
		salvage value. These values are updated during capitalization, disposal,
		adjustment, and appreciation. Only one book can be the default ADR book. This
		book must be a <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tf/domains/fam.btyp#fede" role="option">Federal Tax</GUIRef> book.</Paragraph>
