MANAGE DEFERRED REVENUE AMORTIZATION SCHEDULES

Use this screen to set up schedules to amortize deferred revenue on specific invoices from sales order (SO) that use the deferred revenue recognition method. You can set up amortization codes and cycles that consist of period sequences and amortization rates over a specified number of accounting periods.

If an amortization schedule has been applied to one or more SO lines, you cannot delete it. However, you can delete or modify period sequence lines at any time on the Amortization Schedule table window, as long as the Cumulative Amortization Percentage Rate is 100.00%.
