    Work shift-dependent depreciation is a feature of SAP's Fixed Assets (SRD-FIN-FA) module that allows for the depreciation of assets to be calculated based on the number of shifts worked. This feature allows for more accurate depreciation calculations, as it takes into account the actual usage of the asset.

This schedule will define the number of shifts worked and the associated depreciation rate. Once this is done, you can assign assets to the shift schedule and the depreciation will be calculated accordingly. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When setting up a shift schedule, it is important to ensure that all relevant information is included. This includes the number of shifts worked, the associated depreciation rate, and any other relevant information such as holidays or overtime.
