P&L acc should not hit retained earnings account upon exe Bal Carry Forwar

Question

Hi Friends,
As per business requirement I created two Depreciation expense accounts, only Book Dep account should hit retained earnings whereas other special dep account should not hit. Since both accounts are P&L  they are picking upon executing Balance carry forwad.
          Special Dep area is created to depreciate the complete asset in the year of purchase to help the org to allocate it to different Cost centers for funding request. As such these special dep accounts are out of scope for FSV so there is no impact on Bal Sheet,however upon exec FAGLGVTR  full dep posted on these accounts are carried forward to next year along with true dep.
Please provide any suggestions that help to avoid some of the PL acc carry forard to retained earnings account. I am thinking of creating separate chart of account for these accounts but this consume lot of time for testing all the scenarios.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Madhu,
Here is the scenario.
APC of all acquisitions are allocated, in the year of acquisition, among several cost centers using statistical key figure (Work hours). To satisfy this requirement, a second depreciation area (Special) will be created. In the second depreciation area, all assets (regardless of asset class) will be depreciated fully in the year (month) of acquisition u2013 (the same depreciation key as low value asset). The value in the second depreciation area will flow to controlling.
This full depreciation is not even consider in financial reporting as the number range of these dep exp accounts are out of range in FSV. The main purpose is to allocate full depreciation among CC in advance for funding request.
Thank you,
With Regards,
Venkat
