Capitalize ledger transactions into a fixed asset.

  • transaction_ids: Transactions to capitalize, at least one (required)
  • name: Asset name, 1-255 chars (required)
  • useful_life_months: Useful life in months, 1-600 (optional, defaults to 60)
  • depreciation_method: straight_line, declining_balance, double_declining, units_of_production (optional, defaults to 'straight_line')
  • in_service_date: In-service date, YYYY-MM-DD (optional, defaults to the latest transaction date)
  • salvage_value: Salvage value in cents (optional, defaults to 0)
  • auto_place_in_service: Place the asset in service immediately so depreciation can start (optional, defaults to true)

Returns: The created asset and its projected depreciation schedule.
