0021961: Ability to filter amortization lines by asset category

Description

Asset categories determine the accounts to be used when depreciating assets.

When revising a P&L for a period, it is important for an accountant to be able to validate that the depreciation expense recognized within the period matches the depreciated amounts of the individual assets that affect that account (and that therefore are associated with a given asset category).

In Openbravo, the Amortization window stores the depreciation schedule. For each period (and project) there is a header record with a line for each asset that depreciates within that period.

If I were able to filter the lines by asset category, I would be able to easily identify all assets having a depreciation that hits a particular account in the P&L in the period.

That would achieve my objective.

Unfortunately that screen includes assets but not asset categories.

We should add a read only asset category field to the line window.

Steps To Reproduce

N/A

Proposed Solution

This can be easily accomplished by adding a property field to the Lines tab.
See screenshot.

In the screenshot this is done as part of a module but it should be part of core.
