Adjustments to Accum.Dep. legacy data

Hi,
After legacy data had been migrated, it was found that the figures of Accumulated depreciation was wrong. We need to correct this now in the current year, with the following restrictions:
1) Cannot change values through AS92 due to audit concerns.
2) No manual adjustment entries should be required.
3) Previous periods cannot be re-opened.
Please share your thoughts on any standard or work-around that could achieve this (if at all possible).
Thanks in advance.
Muru

Thanks Paul,
But none of these transactions affect the Accum. Dep. balance. They only affect current year depreciation. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Asset Tables for legacy data takeover

Dear Friends
We've to take assets data from one client to another and hence would be using Legacy assets.
Could you please let me know from which tables / reports i should extract the data related to master & transaction data from the legacy system which is also on SAP.
ANLA - master data and to take those assets which are not deactivated
ANLB
ANLC - asset accumulated APC & dep. And current yr dep
ANLZ - dep terms data
ANEP - asset transaction data for current year acquisitions
I dont have the system in from of me and i hope the above tables are correct.
1. Please let me know if other tables are required?
2. Should the dep area data be posted with remaining useful life & expired life in legacy asset?
Regards

Asset-Building legacy data

Dear all
There is scenario for Asset-Building in legacy data......for building there are many line items...for e.g.
1. Building is purchased
2. then some addition in this asset(with other date)
etc.
Now how to upload this assets in the system.....
regards

Hi,
Now i got confuse..
You want to upload the asset data in SAP form your Legacy system... Correct
If it is so then you have 2 option
1. you can upload the asset in SAP by creating different Asset code base on different acquisition made in same asset in your legacy.and upload the dep differently.
2. You consolidate the value of all the year and upload in one asset in sap
Total Acquisition value and total Dep on all the asset

Transaction type for the legacy data for Auc

Dear Experts,
When i use the AS91 to load the legacy for Auc, the system issues the error ' Trans. type 900 can only be used for legacy assets from prev. years'
The asset value data is '2011/04/05', the transaction type is 900. The asset transfer data is '2011/04/25'
Should I have to use the transaction for the Auc's legacy data input? Can i choose other transaction tpye like 100?
Br
Sophie

Hi
100 is used for uploading Non AUC assets
900 is used for AUC.. AS per SAP recommendation, 01/01/20xx to be used when uploading AUC... I misplaced that SAP note which says so
Normally changing the asset val date impacts the dep calculation.. Since, AUC has 0000 dep key, it does not impact Dep calculation

Asset depreciation calculation for prevous year when legacy data transfere

Hello,
Asset Legacy Data transfer has made as on 31.12.2006. so, for the first period asset depreciation calculation has done wrongly i.e. on the first period of 2007. but it was not noticed at that point of time, now after 2 years, the cumulative difference is coming out very big.
for 1st period, in Asset Value Tab of AS03, for period 01 , 2007 when i am checking right now it shows for dep. Area 01 right now that Amt to be post (14.48) instead of that in the next line for Dep. area 20 and in the next line it shows, Amt. to be posted ( -0.28). hence, for next period only differnce amount is posted in G/L side instead of actual it should be posted as 14.76.
so, now because of this error, my G/L and AA sides are not matching up.
eventhough i post manual reversal entry via FB01, when i will run ABST2 there will be problem.
if i run manual unplanned depreciation, then will my problem of not matching of Asset side and GL side will be solved. ?
also, please provide suggestion from your end in order to solve this issue.
Thanking you for your help.
Jigs.

We cannot post any depreciation to previous fiscal year 2008 as no planned depreciation is envisaged for the previous year 2008. The transfer date for Legacy asset data transfer is maintained as 12/31/2008 and takeover values are uploaded accordingly. Hence, 2009 is a first year for Asset Accounting of the company code.
However, Depreciation posting program checks for previous period log while executing for the current period. The logs are stored in u201CTABAu201D table. For new company code there will not be any entries in TABA table.
Due to missing functionality, System is checking for previous year depreciation posting logs even though the current fiscal year is first year for planned depreciation and giving error message AA 687.
As per SAP Note 144441 this error can be rectified with the help of correction program ZACORR_TABA_ENTRY_CREATE.
Steps to Rectify the Error:
1. Copy correction program from SAP Note 144441 into SAP System.
2. Execute the program with transaction code SA38
3. Check the values in test mode
4. If the table is updated with documennt number , remove the test mode tick and execute again
5. Execute the deprecation

Asset Legacy data transfer reconciliation with GL

We have recently merged a deactivated company code with our operating company and transferred all Finance processes, open items,master data etc.
We transferred assets using Legacy Data Transfer AB91 (we did not use intercompany asset transfer ABT1N).
We then transferred the Trial Balance.
The asset balances reconcile against the GL accounts for the transferred assets when executing S_ALR_87011964 and FS10N.
However there is a difference in ABST2 which is the same difference as the migrated assets.
I would expect there to be no difference between FI and AA for legacy data transfer
I have also run ABST for all affected GL accounts and there is no difference when executing this report.
Note that the company code migration occurred in January 2008, there is no effect on 2007 year end data.

Hi
You have to take over the GL balance using OASV t.code

Legacy data upload for Training & Event Management

As per the requirement, the legacy /history data for training events is to be uploaded in the system. To start the process the data templates were prepared for uploading training objects like D (Business Event Group), L (Business Event Type) and E (Business Event) and these were uploaded. Also the relationships A003 between D & L and A020 between E & D were also maintained. As a part of training history the attendees were also maintained (uploaded) using the relationship A025 between E & P objects. However when we go to PSV2, then the tree structure does not reflect the name of the person who attended the event.
Please suggest and advice.

Hi Nitin,
I have a query regarding the Legacy data. I wanted to ask you that how did you structure the Historical BEG and BET.
Did you create different BEG for the Current and the Legacy data.
But in that case there could be BET's common in both the current and legacy data with different object ids
For e.g. Under Current BEG and Historical BEG I may have a BET Technical Programmes with diffrent Ids say 60000000 and 60987655. This may create a problem when running reports.
Pls tell me strategy that you have used for creating the catalog.

Legacy data transfer - open items customer/vendor

Hi together,
We want to transfer legacy data to SAP. With our open item postings (customer/vendor) we want to use the relevant tax code, but we don´t want to actually post the tax amount. (The tax will be transferred in sum)
How does that work?
Thanks for any help.

Hi Murali,
I´ve checked that by entering a manual posing via fb01.
The problem is that within the posting I can´t set the tax code for the transfer account (GL-account) since field
MWSKZ must be empty. I´ve already deactivated message no. FF753 but that does not influence the system behavior.
Else I get error message FF707.
Does SAP behave differently in case of LSMW?

Strange legacy data migration problem to SAP CProjects

Dear all,
I am new to CProjects and currently working on migrating legacy data to CProjects through XML. I am facing some strange problems when migrating project data with multiple phases. If the project already exists in Cprojects, the XML import transaction hangs indefinitely and a timeout exception is thrown. While on the other hand, if I upload a new project (with same set of phases), it is readily imported without any problems.
Kindly help!
Thank you all!

Hi Vivek,
If the project already exists, the system creates a simulation from the imported data. You then need to move the simulation to your operational project by performing a reconcilliation. You can't simply overwrite an operational project via an import.
I have included some links below from SAP help which may help (cProjects 3.1).
