Hi there,
I am trying to overwrite field Transaction Description with value is taken from Description of Fixed Assets
and I found that these FATran in red rectangle are generated from action CalcDeprProcess on screen Calculate Depreciation (FA502000) and handled in function SetProcessDelegate()
I don’t know if there is any way to over-write function AssetProcess.DepreciateAsset? I can’t find source code of this function.
Could you please share your idea?
Thank you in advanced.

I had a look at the Method Override. I believe you need to override
public static bool DepreciateAsset(IEnumerable<FABookBalance> books, DateTime? DateTo, string PeriodTo, bool IsMassProcess, bool IncludeLastPeriod)
in AssetProcess graph if you wish but you need to consider it is the worst type of override you have to do (the change should be made in the middle of the method meaning you have to copy/paste the method code and make the change which is not really an override (typically we make changes at the beginning or end and call the base method accordingly).
My suggestion: Do not do it because 1) you do not need to do it really 2) in each update you have to compare and revise your code according to Acumatica changes that mean high maintenance 3) will take more time and is more complex to develop
Instead, override FATran RowInserting/Inserted Handler for the Depreciation Type transaction as you want which it really where it should do, doesn’t need any maintenance unless Acumatica makes a fundamental change to its platform and can be developed and tested within one hour.
But as mentioned it is your choice.
I searched through the source code and found that method in AssetProcess.cs.
+10Hello
Thank you for your response. My wish is overriding value of field Transaction Description which is generated by CalcDeprProcess because it always has formula like: “Depreciation for Asset <FA Number>”
and field Transaction Description shouldn’t be override If it is created manually such as: created by screen Fixed Asset Transactions
so I think we should set value in action CalcDeprProcess
Looking forward to see your idea.
Thanks
+10I do understand that you necessarily do not want to override all the descriptions and that is why I mentioned in my earlier post “based on the TranType”.
But of course, you can proceed as you see what best fits you.
