  How to use it: 
  In SAP Fixed Assets, individual materials are tracked using the Asset Master Data (AMD) module. This module allows users to enter information about each individual asset, such as its description, purchase date, and depreciation rate. This information can then be used to track the asset’s performance over time and calculate its depreciation value.
