             Summary: Accumulated depreciation switches from negative to 
positive value following closure of corresponding time period
                 Key: OFBIZ-12754
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-12754
             Project: OFBiz
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 22.01.01
            Reporter: Daniel Watford
            Assignee: Daniel Watford


This bug marked as critical since OFBiz appears to be producing an incorrect 
financial report.

When the corresponding time period is open, the balance sheet will display the 
sum of contra account credit entries for that time period as negative when 
displayed on the balance sheet as these balances are displayed alongside and 
summed with asset balances. This has the (presumably intended) effect of 
reducing the overall value of assets.

Once the time period for the contra account credit balance is closed, the 
contra account balance will then be treated as a positive value on the balance 
sheet, having the effect of increasing, rather than decreasing, total asset 
value.

This behaviour can be observed using demo data.

For the demo company, create the following Fiscal Month custom time periods 
(time values should be 00:00:00):
 * 2009-01-01 to 2009-02-01
 * 2009-02-01 to 2009-03-01
 * 2009-03-01 to 2009-04-01
 * 2009-04-01 to 2009-05-01

Access the Balance Sheet report and produce a balance sheet for Thru Date 
2009-04-01. This balance sheet will then include the entry for vehicle 
depreciation with transaction date 2009-03-31 08:00:00.000.

The balance sheet should show this depreciation in the Assets part of the 
report with a value of -$2500.

Close the first three time periods one-by-one, regenerating the above balance 
sheet after each closure. You should see that once the March 2009 time period 
is closed the depreciation balance changes from -$2500 to $2500.

Further, the Total Assets entry at the bottom of the report will have increased 
to $202,500, misrepresenting the true state by $5000.
