In MYOB Tax if you need to delete a depreciation worksheet for an asset which is either pooled or not pooled, the integration settings must first be removed prior to deleting the assets deprecation worksheet.  This is so that the depreciation expense amount, will also be removed from the body of the tax return.  

This process is not to be used if you are selling or writing off of an asset. To sell or write off of an asset ensure that you use the Disposal tab of the depreciation worksheet. If you require more information on the Disposal tab, while in the Disposal tab press F1 to access the Online Help details for this area.
