Lite Depreciation editions are single-user products that install locally and maintain databases on the local hard drive.
Lite Depreciation and Lite Depreciation for Sage 50 have a maximum of 1,000 assets per company. Sage 50 Fixed Assets can only have 200 assets per company.
Lite Depreciation for Sage 50 and Sage 50 Fixed Assets have built-in links to post depreciation to Sage 50 US edition.
Lite Depreciation doesn't have built-in bulk transactions or transfer features.
