Items are in different fiscal years - Posting

Hello
Here one user is doing a transaction F-32 for clear customer items.  He has to clear items but the items were posted in different fiscal years.  When he tries to post the document, it gives the message "Items are in different fiscal years".  few items are in the last year and rest are in the current year. Both the fiscal years are open in the case.  How can I post the document ?

can you provide the message number.
can you also confirm if this is an error, warning or message.
As standard you should be able to clear open items from different fiscal years.
Are you matching invoices off with a zero balance?
Also can you confirm if you have activated document splitting?

  • Define depreciation areas with different fiscal yr variant under 1 cod.

    Hi FICO Gurus,
    I am a new student in FICO, here i have a question as following, ask for help,
    Does anyone know how to define depreciation areas with different fiscal year variant under one chart of depreciation?
    Such as:
    Book Keeping Fiscal Year Variant 1: Jun-15-2007 to Jun-14-2008, Non-Calendar Month
    Tax Calculation Fiscal Year Variant 2: Jul-01-2007 to Jun-30-2008, Calendar Month
    So far as I know, SAP provides Specify Different Fiscal Year Variants on Depreciation Area. But it requires the same starting date and ending date for fiscal year variants.
    Right now, the scenario here is different book fiscal year variant and tax depreciation fiscal year variant with different time span.
    Does Anyone know feasible and tested solutions?
    Any responses will be awarded.
    Thanks a lot!
    Samson

    I believe - and this is only my belief - (haven't tried it before) - you can define Depreciation Areas like you wanted.
    Broadly, the steps to do this would be:
    Create a Chart of Depreciation and create two Depreciation Areas within this for your Company.
    The chart of Depreciation will be assigned to the company code level, so you are okay there.
    Now create a FYV corresponding to the June 15 - June 14 depreciation year and assign these to the Company Code using the menu path:
    Asset Accounting --> Valuation --> Fiscal Year --> Fiscal Year Variants --> Specify other versions on Depreciation Area Level.
    Here, pick your company code and you should see both the areas assigned to it. Assign the FYV as required and then check to see if it works.
    Like I mentioned before, this is only a random thought. Haven't tried this before.
    Cheers.

  • Asset Register with different Fiscal Year Variant

    Ministry Of Commerce requires Power Line Carrier Companies to maintain
    an additional fixed asset register. This register needs to have
    Fiscal Year - April to March
    Revaluation of Assets on 1 April every year based on indice provided
    Ministry.
    Depericiation Rates same as existing
    Staright line depreciation
    No depreciation / revaluation of new assets aqired during the year
    No depreciation on disposal of assets during the year
    This can work OK for Companies with same Fiscal Year Variant (April to
    March).
    What are the options for Companies with different Fiscal Year?
    Some of the companies do not have the new GL activated and hence cannot
    use the additional ledger and use for this purpose.
    Can you please advise.
    Regards,
    Suneel Bhonsule

    If the company codes are using fiscal year variant April - March, then it is possible. If the company codes are using differant fiscal year variant other than April - March and if you want to get the report with the Fiscal year April-March,, it will not work out..
    Even If new GL Activated for all company codes also its not possible.. i had a experience of this and finally came to know that parellel ledger or special ledger concept will not support for Diefferant fiscal year for Asset accounting alone which is differant from Company code fiscal year..
    Thanks

  • Use of Different Fiscal Year Variant-Statistical Depreciation Area Postings

    An existing Company Code in SAP is going to have Fixed Assets implemented.  This Company Code is setup just like the others in our SAP instance: Same Chart of Accounts, Same Fiscal Year Variant, Fixed Asset procedures, etc.  For purposes of this question our company's Fiscal Year is from August 1st to July 31st.  In addition, this Company Code will post Fixed Assets just like the other SAP enabled Company Codes into Book Depreciation Area 01.  The company I work with is on ECC 6 but we use the Classic Ledger for Financials, and the Special Ledger is posted to but not really utilized.
    For the Country Specific/Tax Reporting purposes within Fixed Asset Accounting we have created a Statistical Depreciation Area 03 (I will call it Tax) with its own Life and Depreciation Key assignments with a setting of 0 in OADB-No Posting in GL for this Fixed Asset go-live, so I think we are set there.  The tricky part comes in the reporting.  The country in question requires information to be generated on a Calendar Year basis, which is obviously different than the Fiscal Year outlined above.  To my knowledge we would have to assign Tax Depreciation Area 03 to the Calendar Fiscal Year Variant: Financial Accounting>>Asset Accounting>>Valuation>>Fiscal Year>>Fiscal Year Variants>>Specify Other Versions on Depreciation Area Level. 
    The other piece of this is to get the Fixed Asset Reporting for Tax Depreciation Area 03 to work on a Calendar Year basis for the Company Code in question.  When I did some research I stumbled upon the link below.  In summary it says that you have to manipulate the standard Fixed Assets reports in Excel for Asset Acquisitions and Depreciation, and setup a new Retirement routine/transaction for posting into the Special Depreciation Area.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/05/bc0bf3d8f811d1953e0000e82debf7/content.htm
    My questions are:
    1) Besides assigning a different Fiscal Year Variant for Tax Depreciation Area 03, is there anything else I need to worry about on the setup end?
    2) Is the article I posted accurate when it comes to how the reporting works and the need for setting up a Calendar Year specific Asset Retirement Routine?  If so, what are the configuration steps for setting up a Calendar Year specific Asset Retirement Routine?
    3) Is there anything else that I need to consider for enabling Fixed Assets at an existing Company Code with different Reporting requirements for Book/Tax purposes?
    Thanks in advance for all responses.  I am willing to answer any other questions on this subject if needed.

    Hello Rio.  In our scenario, we still had to load assets in the legal entity with this issue.  When we loaded the fixed asset data into SAP we did with data accurate as of December 31, 2011; which for book purposes is 5 months into our company's fiscal year, and for tax purposes is the end of the 2011 calendar year.  The calendarized reporting for the tax depreciation will need to be pieced together manually using the SAP recommended methodology of combining report values, which I have pasted below.
    Since this is the only SAP-enabled entity that has this scenario right now we are in wait and see mode to see if this sufficient.  In the end the SAP path for Dual Calendar was too much of a risk.
    I hope this helps.

  • One Controlling Area for Two CoCds with different Fiscal Year variant

    Hi,
    I have a Company code with FYV "A1" with 12 Periods (Apr - Mar) - Fiscal year start at Apr-01 and ends Mar-31 of the next year.
    I have another company code with FYV "B1" with 12 Periods (Jan-Dec). - Fiscal year start at Jan-01 and ends Dec-31.
    Chart of Accounts for both the company code is same.
    Can I assign these two company codes to one Controlling Area?
    When I try to assign the company codes, I got the following warning message.
    Differing fiscal year variants: A1 - B1
    Message no. KT297
    Diagnosis
    Fiscal year variant A1, controlling area 1000, does not agree with fiscal year variant B1, company code 5001.
    The following entries must agree:
    - Same number of posting periods (the number of special periods may vary)
    - Same period limits
    Procedure
    Ensure that the fiscal year variants of the controlling area and the assigned company codes agree. If necessary, maintain the fiscal year variants.
    1. What is the meaning of "Same period limits"?
    2. Does it mean the fiscal year start and end date must be same?
    3. What is the impact of the warning message?
    Thanks
    Palani

    Having same fiscal year variant is one of the requirements for different company codes to be under one controlling area.
    The FYV for the company codes and the controlling area can have a different number of special periods. The number of posting periods must be the same.
    Impact of warning message: You cannot create one controlling area for both company codes (1:n assignment).
    If you like, you can create one controlling area for one compnay code with FYV A1 and another controlling area for another company code with FYV B1.
    PS: Please reward the points if you find the answer as useful and rewarding points is a way of saying thanks.

  • Company codes with different fiscal year variants in a controlling area

    Hi all,
    When I try to assign a company code with different fiscal year variant than controlling area I get error. It is ok so far.
    However, after assigning company with same fsv to controlling area the system lets me to change company code's fsv in company code global settings and I can even save it.
    So I wonder how it would be possible ? Why do I get just a warning instead of an error and save ?
    Thanks and regards.
    M.Yusuf Dogan

    Hi Bulut,
    There are 12 normal and 3 special periods in the fsv of the company code which i'm trying to assign. However, controlling area's fsv has 12 normal and 4 special periods.  I get an error message "KT297".
    Actually, my point is that if the company code's fsv is same with co's I can assign but the system lets me change cc's fsv after assignment.

  • Reversal of Asset accounting document in different fiscal years

    Hello All,
    i have one query where the user has scrapped the assets through T code ABAVN in the month Dec 2009 with doc date of Nov 30th 2009. Now he realised that the posting was wrong and he wants to reverse it in 1st of Jan 2010. Now system is giving an error   "Reversal in different fiscal year is not possible" with the message AA487.
    we are using SAP ECC 5.0 and i got SAP 1393737 for this and it is mention that there is a program error and needs to implement the program corrections.
    Please can any one suggest me, is that correct approach or should i need to follow the another work around to resolve this issue.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Venkat

    as per your scenario it is pure program error, so don't look for alternative solution. implement note and try to reverse the document.

  • Use of different fiscal year variant in leading&non leading ledgers and Asset closing&Reporting

    Experts,
    Need one clarification on using different fiscal year variants for Leading(0L)&non Leading(NL) Ledgers and impact on Fixed Asset Accounting.If I use say V6(Jan2013-Dec2013) for Leading Ledger and April2013-March2014 for non leading Ledger,(local GAAP)-please clarify the following.
    1.Does Asset Accounting gives all standard reports as expected in both(Leading&Locals) the Depreciation areas?Do we need to any settings specially for in the above scenario?(I am assuming point#4 given below may not help for this as system gives an error if both the fiscal year variants have different start&end dates)
    2.How is Year end in Asset Accounting handled?If I close the year end in Asset Accounting for Company Code as per Leading Ledger i.e say by Dec 2013,can I still post the asset entries in non leading ledger?Because Financial year for Leading ledger will be 2014 and non leading will be still 2013(in Jan2014).
    3.I am aware SAP has some restrictions way back in 2005-2007 (SAP note 844029) for different fiscal year variants in Leading&Non Leading Ledgers,Does SAP come out with any solution later?
    4.What is the exact use of the settings at  Asset Accounting>>Valuation>>>Fiscal year>>Fiscal year variants  at company code level or Depreciation area level?My understanding here is,they are not meant for using different fiscal year variant with different start&end dates but they are meant for using different fiscal year variant with same START&END DATES  and have different number of posting periods i.e 1 can have 12 and other can have 13.
    Please can you give your comments?
    regards
    hinfi

    Hi Hinfi,
    It seems standard SAP does not manage different fiscal year variants (at least with different start/end dates) in different depreciation areas.
    However, they came up with an add-on solution called Multiple Calendar Tool and based on a mirroring solution that synchronizes asset transactions in a mirror company code.
    It's all explained in following notes:
    Note 1175751 - Project solution for alternative fiscal year variant
    Note 1636025 - Asset acctg multi calendar tool 1.0_ SP Note
    Note 1658489 - Installation of Asset acctg multi calendar 1.0 software
    Note 1658714 - Asset acctg multi calendar tool_ Overview Note
    Note 1691481 - Release strategy_ Asset acctg multi calendar tool
    Note 1951069 - Different fiscal year variants in General Ledger Accounting (New) (NewGL) under the new Asset Accounting (FIN_AA_PARALLEL_VAL)
    I don't know if it's commonly used and personnaly have no feedback on it. I was curious to check how to manage a depreciation area 01 posted in a leading ledger in US GAAP (FYV january to december) and another depreciation posted in a non leading ledger in Indian GAAP (FYV april to march).

  • Consolidated balance sheet for 3 company codes having different fiscal year

    Hi,
    In our current organisation, we have 3 company codes assigned to the company.
    All the three company codes use the same chart of accounts.
    Among the 3, 2 company code are having the same fiscal year variant, controlling area and tha same local currency.
    One company code has different fiscal year variant , controlling area and local currency.
    Now is it possible to see the balance sheet in f.01 for all the 3 company codes.
    If no, could  anyone let me  know if I have to use the multiple ledger concept to do thid.
    I am aware that multiple ledger concept appears when the same company code has different fiscal year variants , we can  see tha same posting in different fiscal year variants.
    I am not sure if I have to use the multiple ledgers to see the consolidate balance sheet for the three companies.
    Please provide me with a clarity on the same.
    Thanks,
    Shilpa.

    Hi,
    Thanks for the extended help.
    But Group Chart of accouts should be maintained for all the comany codes if they have different Chart of accounts at the company code level.
    It is not mandatory have it when all the three company code have tha same COA.
    Thanks,

  • Assigning Different Fiscal Year Variants between comapny codes

    Folks,
    We have 2 company codes 1000 and 1010 both are assigned to controlling area 2000. I want to know what are the impacts of assigning company 1000 and 1010 to different fiscal year variants. I get this warning message when i try to save.
    Please advice if this is advisable to do? and what are the impacts.
    Message no. KT297
    Diagnosis
    Fiscal year variant K4, controlling area 2000, does not agree with fiscal year variant V9, company code 1010.
    The following entries must agree:
    Same number of posting periods (the number of special periods may vary)
    Same period limits
    Procedure
    Ensure that the fiscal year variants of the controlling area and the assigned company codes agree. If necessary, maintain the fiscal year variants.

    Dear Zaid Azam,
    you have assigned 1000 and 1010 to one controlling area 2000,
    To assign more than one company code to one controlling area the below are conditions
    1) The Operative fiscal year variants in the company codes must match the fiscal year variant in controlling area.
    2) The company codes must use the same chart of accounts.
    So  if you are assigning other fiscal year variant where the number of posting periods are different, hece system giving an error.
    Thanks and Regards

  • Values for Ordinary deprec. have changed in dep. area 01 in fiscal year 200

    Hi Guru,
    I m in the process of upgradation from 4.6C to ECC 6.0.
    In Asset Accounting in 4.6C there is a facility of batch input thereby the user can replace the block cost centre by new one. As this facility is not available in ECC 6.0 so I have figured out all asset master in which the block centre are entered. And one by one replace the old cost centre by new one in asset master. When I ran the dep. "AFAB" there were no error. But for few assets the dep. shows positive value and cumulative dep. as zero. When I display the master of these assets and go into asset value of that asset then it give the message
    Values for Ordinary deprec. have changed in dep. area 01 in fiscal year 2008
    Message no. AU390
    Diagnosis
    Depreciation terms were changed in depreciation area 01 since the last time depreciation was recalculated. The values for Ordinary deprec. that were saved in the database in fiscal year 2008 are therefore different from the newly calculated values by an amount of   102385.74-.
    Procedure
    Check if the newly calculated values are correct. If they are, then carry out a depreciation recalculation. You should be aware that if you recalculate depreciation, new values could arise for all open fiscal years, and these would then have to be posted to the general ledger by means of a depreciation posting run.
    If, on the other hand, you want to keep the values that are saved in the database, you have to set the depreciation terms back to how they were at the time of the last depreciation recalculation.
    To see a comparison of the old and new values, you can use the Display dep. calc. function in the asset value display or the Recalculate values function in the Asset Accounting menu."
    Guru, New value is absolutely wrong as it reversed all the dep. charged upto previous period.
    please tell me what I can do & how i colud check whether any body has changed the dep. term or not.
    Thanks
    Rajeev

    Hi,
    start transaction AFAR for the company code as real run. That will recalculate all asset values and should solve the problem.
    Alternative would be to go to AS02 and choose "edit -> recalculate values" from the system menu.
    Regards,
    Markus

  • Reversal of asset document in different fiscal year

    Hi Friends,
    An asset was acquired in period 12, 2008 through t-code ABZO. No depreciation was charged in 2008 because the dep start date was 01.01.2009 in the asset master. Then depreciation was charged and posted for the asset in period 1 and 2 in 2009. Now we want to reverse the asset acquisition posting which was posted in 2008. While making the reversal through AB08, the error message is - Reversal not allowed in different fiscal year.
    (1) Is there any way that the reversal can be done without opening FY 2008?
    (2) What would be the impact on the dep which is posted in per 1 and 2 of 2009?
    Thanks in advance for your much needed help !!!!

    Hi,
    Before doing this I would like to Understand the following:-
    1. Where you have credited when you have debited the Asset ?
    2. Reversal May be possible if you do the following;-
      1. You will have to change the depreciation key as "000"
      2. Repeat run for AFAB.
      3. Reverse the Same Asset by ABZO by different Transaction type.
      4. Otherwise Scrap the Asset.
      regards

  • Accomodating Different Fiscal Year Variants in Fixed Assets.

    Hello All,
    Our client wants to maintain two separate and distinct fiscal year calendars for Fixed Assets:
    1. One for Financial statements (Oct - Sep) and the other for
    2 .Tax reporting and compliance purposes. (Jan - Dec)
    How would you accommodate this requirement ?
    Thanks.

    Thanks Vijay,
    But a different fiscal year version can only be used in Asset Accounting if the start and end dates of the versions in Asset Accounting and Financial Accounting are the same.
    This is not the case with us.
    Dep Area 01 for Company financials is 4-5-4.
    Dep Area XX for Local Legal Req is Jan to Dec.
    How do you accomodate this ?
    Thanks.

  • Different fiscal year variants

    Our client follows two fiscal year variants. For global reporting purpose they follow a different convention 445. For meeting local reporting requirements at subsidiaries in different countries calendar year Jan to Dec is followed. Both the fiscal year variants will have different start and end dates for any fiscal year. As far as GL reporting is concerned we could achieve this by using new ledger solution.
    I am facing a challenge while configuring these two different fiscal year variants in asset accounting. I am planning to use 445 for my 01 area and I want to create another depreciation area for the calendar year reporting, but I am not able to do it.
    I am getting the below error message
    AC539 :Fiscal year variants in co.code  have inconsistent start date
    Diagnosis
    The first day of the fiscal year for variant K4 in company code in Asset Accounting differs from the first day of the fiscal year for variant SD in General Ledger Accounting.
    However, both variants must have the same start and end date! Only the periods within the fiscal year can be different in the two variants.
    Does any body have come across similar situation and what would be the solution to achieve this ?

    Hello Reuta Kulkarni,
    there is no standard functionality available to cover your requirement. Still, a customer specific project solution for a workaround can be offered by SAP Custom Development. Please note, that such a solution requires detailed analysis of the customer requirements and is chargeable.

  • Closing Cockpit: Different Fiscal Year Variant in Task List

    Dear All,
    I want to implement the closing cockpit for several bukrs who have different fiscal year variants. I have definied one template for all bukrs. When creating a task list I only have the possibility to define one fiscal year variant for the selection variables. I could use my own selection variables from TVARV but nonetheless when choosing the template/task list the fiscal year variant is shown "wrong" for some of the bukrs. I do not want to design a template for each fiscal variant. Are there any ways to solve this problem?
    Thanks for your help!

    Hi,
    I am afraid this is not possible. Please see the SAP notes
    152888 - Different fiscal year variants in FI-AA
    1493253 - Different fiscal year variants in FI-AA (II)
    There are a restrictions for different fiscal year variants in asset accounting. This also applies to NewGL. There is a workaround with another depreciation area but I have never tried it.
