Depreciation of a single asset (AFAB)

Hi Sap Gurus
How can one run a single asset with transaction AFAB. I just want to a depreciation run for one asset. The system is telling that with this transaction I can only run depreciation for all assets. Alternatively only in a repeat run can I run a single asset.
I want to test one asset in the Quality box, what should I do?
Thanks

Why would you only want to test the depreciation run for one asset? If you only want to see what the depreciation amount would be for a particular asset, you can view this in AW01N and look under the posted values tab. There you can see planned depreciation by period - what it intends to post.
Otherwise you must perform a depreciation run for all assets - but you can do this in test run mode.
Otherwise, you could vary your depreciation keys - use non depreciating keys for those assets you don't want to run depreciation on or change the U/L to 0. But depending upon how many assets are in the company code, this could take awhile.
I would just run a test run. If you still don't get the information required, then go ahead and do a posting run. You could always correct depreciation numbers in the next posting run or you could reset depreciation via OAGL. But this transaction can be VERY dangerous - and delete vital information.
Good luck!

Depreciation not run for single asset-Why

Hi Experts,
Could anybody advise me why I am unable to run depreciation of single asset,(AFAB and repeat run used)
However.I can ran depreciation of all assets of the company code(all are working fine),
So Please suggest me how can I run depreciation for a single asset (Any specific configuration?)
Note:-
When I am checking AW01N I found depreciation of a asset has been posted for period-15(spl period)
But for other asset -depreciation has not been posted for period-15(showing planned only and revaluation amount also showin in plan ,done through AB01)
So I am trying to post the depreciation for the period -15,
So that after depreciation posting revaluation amount also can go in posted amount(revaluation amount showing in plan only as depreciation has not been posted for the period-15)
Please advise
Thanks and Regards

Hi,
As per standard SAP, depreciation can be run at company code level and not at asset level.
If you just want to check the nature of posting, you can give a single asset and run in 'Test Run' mode.

After AFAB, I've changed depreciation key for an asset from 20% to 0%

Hi All,
I've posted depreciation (AFAB) for periods from 01 to 04 (Depreciation Area 20).
Later I've changed the depreciation key for an asset from 20% to 0%.
In my test SAP allows me to update depreciation data only in the period 05 (for previous data).
Is there the way to repete the depreciation posted in the periods from 01 to 04!
Cluo d anyone help me??
Thanks

Rossi,
Since you have already posted the depreciation for the periods 01 to 04, the system assumes that there are no postings pending for those periods and hence shows the recalculated depreciation in period 05. But you can do the repeat depreciation run using AFAB transaction code. You can try them for period 04 and the entire depreciation posted till 04 will get charged in Period 04 itself.

Problem with depreciation posting for an asset with a '0' net book value.

Hi,
I have a problem with depreciation posting on one asset. I think it should not be calculated and posted at all.
On 1st November 2010 (our Fiscal year starts on 1st November) there was acquisition posted to an asset and then it was reversed on the same day - so the net book value was '0'.
In AFAB depreciation run for April 2011 - it posted depreciatoion of 0.01 Euro, so now the book value is -0.01.
Do you know how this could have happened and what can I do to get the value of this asset back to 0?
Thank you,
Karol

Hi Murlidhar,
Thank you for your reply.
I just have one doubt - as depreciation of 0.01 Eur was posted in previous period leaving net value of asset equal to -0.01 Eur.
Shouldn't I get ritd of this asset value before I proceed with the steps you suggested?
I think it is not possible to reverse the depreciation - so I struggle to find a way to bring asset value back to zero.
Thank you,
Karol

Calculate Depreciation Forecast for Fixed asset

Dear all expert,
I'm new to ASO, would like to know if there's a way to do depreciation forcast for fixed asset in Essbase.
1. Database type is ASO
2. Assuming user will prepare forecast caplitialization of fixed asset then upload to Essbase
3. Attribute dimension "Useful life" has been defined and attached to specific "Accounts" dimension for calcluation
4. Need to calculate the forecast and spread of depreciation for future months
E.g. Input 32000 USD for a fixed asset cost with 32 months useful life
-> should calculate 1000 each month for the coming 32 months
Can any expert suggest how to do this in ASO? meaning only can do calculation in member formula itself, not calculation script.
Thanks for your help in advance,
Billy

I haven't used the feature, but the reference to 'local script_file' in the MaxL railroad diagram for the 'execute calculation' command suggests the location is relative to the client, if the semantics are consistent with the 'export data' command (the options for report scripts there are 'server' or 'local', although according to the railroad diagram there is no non-local alternative in this case!).
There is a worked example in a Rittman Mead blog post about this that might help: http://www.rittmanmead.com/2010/04/oracle-epm-11-1-2-essbase-calculations-on-aso-cubes-part-2-maxl-scripts-and-eas/
The DBAG also says that the script files should have suffix .csc, while the Tech Ref example has suffix .txt - helpful!! If they were actually meant to sit in the server's db directory, I would be surprised to find the .csc suffix used, since that is also the suffix for aggregation scripts. Although me being surprised doesn't mean much.

Post revaluation to selected depreciation area of an asset

Hi,
We are using depreciation area '01' for posting to GL accounts and '02' for fiscal reporting. It turned out that couple of assets had wrong depreciation key specified for depreciation area '02', which resulted in wrong depreciation calculated for '02' in last 3 years.
We would like to correct it now, once we discovered this issue. One of the ideas was to create new revaluation transaction type which is active only for depreciation area '02', which will only change value of asset in that particuaral area without affecting correct '01',
However, after configuring new transaction type in AO84 and assigning it to '02' depreciation area in OAXJ, when I tried to run ABAW for this asset - it gave me error AA 380.
'Inconsistency between the specifications for transaction type Z11 and for the depreciation areas in chart of depreciation PTI.
Depreciation area 02 is defined (in Customizing), so that it is required to take over values from area 01. However, one of these ares cannot be posted to, due to the specifications in transaction type Z11. This combination is not allowed.'
Is it possible to configure postings only to one depreciaton area? If not - is there any other easy way of revaluating only one depreciation area for an asset.
Thank you,
Karol

Hi Blaz,
Thank you for your reply. I am trying to increase the value of the asset in depreciation area 02, because due to wrong depreciation key it got fully depreciated last year in 02. I want to add the value to 02 which should have not been depreciated in last 2 years. Is there a way to increase its value using ABAA?
Thank you,
Karol

Add depreciation area to old assets (revaluation area)

Hi guys,
I've created a new depreciation area for setting revaluation of assets. This new dep area only contains revaluation of assets (we'll only have revaluation and depreciation of this revaluation in this new area), so I've configured it to manage only revaluation values. Acquisition values are not allowed.
In OABC i've put "00" in the area where this new area takes values from, due to i don't want thhis new area to copy acquisitions values from area 01.
I've made the rest of the configuration also, to support revaluation transactions (mov 800) in this new area. But, I've got 2 problems now:
1. The new area i configured is missing when creating a new asset in AS01. However, when using AS91 the new area shows up. Any idea of why this happens that way?
2. I cannot add the new area in old assets. When using AFBN a message appears: "Depreciation area 20, which you want to create as a new depreciation area in chart of depreciation PVPE, has no depreciation area defined for value takeover. This may be be correct for normal operation, however for the purposes of creating a new depreciation in the productive system, you have to enter a depreciation area whose values are used as base values for the new area."
Message makes sense, because my new area is not copying values from any area (in tcode OABC i defined 00 as dep area source). The question is.. is there any additional tcode where i can add the new depreciation area to old assets?
Thanks in advance.
Eduardo

Hi,
there are the following steps:
1. Create Depreciation area via OADB.
2. Activate Depreciation area via OAYZ.
3. Automatic opening of new depreciation are via AFBN and program RAFABNEW :
   3.1 - Indicator: Leave values initial = not ticked.
           The system will copy all the past years values from
           depreciation area 01.
3.2 - Indicator: Leave values initial = ticked.
           Set this indicator if you want to open the newly created
           depreciation area without any values i.e. blank.
4. Recalculate depreciation via AFAR and program RAAFAR00.

DEPRECIATION PROCESS IN ORACLE ASSETS(FADEPR)
=============================================
PURPOSE
Oracle Assets 에서의 depreciation process 를 간략하게 기술
Explanation
DEPRECIATION IN ORACLE ASSETS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Depreciation Program (FADEPR) 은 감가상각비 및 자산조정액을 계산하여 감가상각 누계액에 Update 하는 역할을 한다. 감가상각을 실행하면 다음 4가지 독립적인 Request가 실행된다.
=======================================================================
- Generate Accounts (FAGDA - Release 11 and 11i)
- Calculate Gain/Loss (FARET)
- Depreciation (FADEPR)
- Journal Entry Reserve Ledger Report (FAS400) for a Corporate book
or Tax Reserve Ledger Report (FAS480) for a TAX book.
- Process Pending Transactions (11i only)
1.Generate Accounts process (FAGDA)은 필요한 GL code combinations 을 생성하여 FA_DISTRIBUTION_ACCOUNTS table에 값을 입력한다. Generate Accounts (FAGDA)는 감가상각 Process의 성능향상을 위해 Depreciation Program (FADEPR)과는 별도로 실행된다. Generate Accounts Running시간은 자산의 수 Distribution의 수에 따라 달라진다.
2. Calculate Gain/Loss Process(FARET)는 처분된 자산의 손익을 계산하는 과정으로 당기의 처분/취소 자산의 감가상각액을 대상으로 한다. FARET는 꼭 감가상각을 실행하면 실행되는 것은 아니다. 자산의 처분/취소가 일어날 때마다 실행된다.
3. Depreciation process 는 감가상각비 및 자산조정액을 계산한 후 해당기를 마감한다.마감한 Period 에 대해 다시 Open 하는 것이 불가능하므로 감가상각을 돌리기 전 모든 Transaction을 끝내야 한다.
4. Process Pending Transactions program 은 Depreciation request set에 Mass Addtion Post작업을 추가하여, 감가상각이 실행 후 다음기를 Open할 때 Mass Additions Post job 이 자동적으로 실행되도록 한다.
Oracle Assets 은 감가상각비를 계산할 때 다음과정을 거치게 된다.
=================================================================
1. DPIS와 Prorate convention을 이용하여 Prorate Data를 결정한다.
2. Prorate data와 Prorate Calendar를 이용하여 Prorate Period를 결정한다.
3. 감가상각율을 결정한다.
4. 감가대상액을 결정한다.
5. 감가상각비를 결정한다.
6. 당기 감가상각비를 결정한다.

Blank in depreciation area tab in asset master record

Hi,
While creating the asset master record, by mistake have ticked the deactivation check box in Depreciation Area tab of Asset master through transaction code AS01.
Later when I displayed the asset master record through transaction code AS03, I found that depreciation area tab is full of blank (No information).
Please help how to bring back that screen. (I have tried all screen layouts, but could not success)
Regards,
Babjee

Hi Ramesh,
Thanks for response.
Mentioned clearly that Depreciation tab is completely BLANK. How could I go and activate the check box when I am not able to see anything in that tab.
Please advise.

Populate Depreciation areas to the assets created with no depreciation area

Hi,
We created few Assets under a particular asset class. But only after creating we realised that there were no depreciation areas in it. So I added the depreciation areas to this asset class and then run
AFBN to populate the newly created depreciation areas to the existing assets.But it is not working. Could you please help me to populate these depreciation areas to those existing assets. Is it possible or not?
Please note, the depreciation area tab is completely blank. When I try AFBN for Depr area 01 (Derived Depr area), the system throws a message "Define depreciation area correctly".
I also tried AFBN with "Leave values initial" indicator checked. But still no results.
Do any one of you know how to populate the depr areas to those assets? The User have already created 45-50 assets. If there is no solution, then the last resort is to delete these assets.
Thanks & Regards,
Vinod

Hi Vinod,
AFBN is a simple tool, which copies entries from a source area to a target area. If you have no areas at all defined in the asset master record, there is no source to be copied.
I would propose to delete these assets with AS06 if possible and start over in this asset class. As I understand your description you can not have any posting to such assets up to now.
Regards,
Markus
