Hellow,
Thanks for the support, but i changed the base method to immediate depreciation (0016), i changed the multilevel method as you specified to have 60/30/10 in the reduction column without specifying any value in the percentage column. I posted to an asset value of 100$ then system is showing in asset explorer as period1 40$ and period2 as 60$ and nothing in period 3, i changed the multilevel reduction amount for some trial and error but could not achieve what i want, that is to post 60$ in first month, 30$ in second and 10$ in third month, please suggest.

It is worth noting that whenever you change any of the components of the
depreciation key, you MUST go back and check the depreciation key
configuration again.
