ASKB - Periodic Asset Postings

Hello dear all,
When i launch the transaction ASKB in test modefor month 10, i obtain the following error:
- Account 'Revaluation of acquisition and production costs of assets' could not be found for area 88 - for company CC01.
Enter this account in account determination for assets -
The problem is that the system never ask me about this account in the previous months, and we never customize it since the beginning of activities.
Why the system ask me about it today ?
I need your help.
Thanks

Hi,
As mentioned earlier, find out the new assets created, and from table ANLA, find out the asset classes for same, and from ANKA table, get the relevant Account Determnations. Now for these Account Determination(s), APC or Depreciation accounts are not maintained for the dep area 88, and hence system is unable to post for that area and that asset class-account determination.
In table T095 and T095B, input those account determinations and chart of accounts, and you will get entries for all dep areas and the accounts. Here you will be clearly able to see for which dep areas, accounts is not maintained in account determination. Use A090 t-code and mantain those accounts and run ASKB.
Thanks

Periodic Asset Postings

Hi all,
I need some information about the asset accounting transaction code ASKB for periodic asset postings. I have never used it before and have some difficulty understanding its purpose and the postings that take place while this program is run.
Can anyone please guide me on this?

What is the difference between periodic asset postings and depreciation pos

Hi,
What is the difference between periodic asset postings and depreciation postings in asset accounting.
Regards, Naresh Yadav

ASKBN or ASKB : Periodic asset posting will update acquisition and depreciation in depreciation area other than area 01 which are maintained as post "APC and depreciation on periodic basis" by using ASKB or ASKBN
Separate set of GL accounts will be used for ASKBN. You can run ASKBN or ASKB as and when you need it and not necessarily nonth end
AFAB : To post a book depreciation at every period and this activity usually every month end which posts depreciation 01 Book Depreciation and other areas maintained as realtime at OADB

What does periodic asset postings mean?

Hi..
I want to know what is the significance of running ASKBN (Periodic Asset Postings). I do not know how it effects the assets or what does this do? I know that the depreciation posting run (AFAB) posts the depreciation on the individual assets, but why is ASKBN run?
Please explain in simple words...
thanks
Satya

Hi Satya,
Your company or client would use this 'periodic' posting to post depreciation to a different GL account for consolidation or IFRS or some other financial/regulatory reporting purpose.
You may find the depreciation value is different because you need to apply different rules for calculating depreciation.
You may find the APC (acquisition value) is different.
In some years past, clients might use the periodic posting to post tax depreciation to the GL accounts specifically for tax reporting. However, this is no longer a recommended practice where you would have to open your leading financial ledger for a prior year. Tax will often need to make adjustments to the prior years...and from a financial perspective, you rarely, if ever, open the prior financial year.
Hope this helps.

Only asset postings are allowed in this account

Hi All,
My client upgraded SAP System from 4.6 to 6.0. While testing the depreciation run in AFAB, it is showing the error as "Only asset postings are allowed in this account". We have checked all the settings relating to GL Accounts for Depreciation and Accumulated Depereciation. All are correct, like Depreciation account is a P&L Acccount and Accumulated depreciation account is a Balance sheet Asset reconciliation account. Checked the account assignement in AO90 as well. They are also correct.
The deprecaition was posted up to 2nd period and now we are simulating for 3rd period for which the error is showing, We did not change any configuration setting or the master data.
Is anybody having any idea why such error is showing ? Kindly let us know
Thanks
shankar

Hi,
The user has written a Validation for authorisation to run the depreciation with out proper message. The problem was solved when we run the depreciation with another user. Thanks all .

Profit Center Field Not deriving during Asset Postings

We are using document splitting functionality with profit center mandatory for any kind of posting.
Scenario-Asset purchase through PO:
1.Purchase Order -created
2.At goods receipt error is coming balancing filed is not filled (bcoz asset is not a material), for materials we are giving profit center. in the asset master i assigned cost center, still profit center is not deriving.
Scenario-Asset Purchase from vendor
purchasing asset directly from vendor through F-90, against asset line item we have to assign profit center. Cost center & profit center is coming in display mode. in the asset master i already maintained cost center, still profit is not deriving.
I already done config for field status asset account number (G067) andPosting Keys (70,75). I also checked note no.684659.
how profit center will be derived for any kind of asset postings.
Thanks
Sai

I think you might be using the account assignment category 'A' in the Purchase order for asset purchase. Please check the IMG for account assignment category thru transaction 'OME9'. For the relevant account assignment category you are using in the PO, tick the checkbox against 'Derive acct.assgt.'
That should solve your problem.

Asset postings through cash journal

Hi gurus,
Is it possible to post the asset postings through cash journal. I want to debit the asset no. in FBCJ. If it is possible how the configuration has to be done.
BSR

Hello
Cash journal is purely for cash reciepts and cash payments.
If an payment towards purchase of asset needs to be made, then first create the master record in AA and try to make the debit.
I am not sure whether it would work, because an aquisition requires a transaction key of 200 or 210, which is not available CJ screens.
I wonder if you can do it. But please test it, mind you first create asset master record.

Error AA 738 while periodic asset posting - ASKB

Hello,
could you please advise if anybody have encounterd following error when executing transaction: ASKB (test run) as background processing:
Number range 01 has not been created for document type AA.
Message no. AA738
Diagnosis
No valid number range interval has been created for document type AA.
Procedure
Specify an interval for number range 01 in the year 999 for company code XXXX.
I checked that for the mentioned company code number range 01 is created for the current year.
Additionally users executed production run of ASKB (without a test run) and then got an error: Account determination - Loss made on asset retirement w/o reven. not found for area 20 for account group 1411000 - this was fixed but then additional error AA738 came up.
If you can advise how to get rid of error AA738, I would be more than grateful.
Thank you in advance,
Monika

Hi
Though the error says 999, usually its maintained for 9999 (assuming there is no issue wiht your FYsettings)
In addition to that,
The report evaluates all asset transactions since the last run. Unlike the periodic depreciation posting program, the APC posting run is not tied to a certain accounting period. It generates one document per posting period and depreciation area. That means that asset values are summarized for various account groups in one document. Document number assignment is external. You have to enter the document type in Customizing for Asset Accounting.
What I suggest, pls go thru the blue colour 'i' icon in that T code input screen.

Asset CO assignment in ASKB after asset retirement

Hi,
We have defined two depreciation areas 01 and 03 (which its revaluation area). Area 03 has the Posting G/L set to 4 (Area Post APC directly and Depreciation).
If I post a retirement (let's say by Scrapping), and I have a loss that goes to the automatic defined account(P&L account). When I later on try to run ASKB to make the posting from area 03, it's there some way that the loss account gets the CO assginment (i.e. Cost Center) from the asset master data (not a fixed CeCo defined in OKB9 or any other similar), as it happens for example when I run AFAB for the expense depreciation account.
We would need the transaction to post each loss account detailed by Cost Center, in case there's multiple retirements that would get posted trhough ASKB.
I just would like to know if it's possible or if i'd have to use a predefined CeCo using for example OKB9. Or if you have a better approach to this problem.
What we need is to get each loss on retirement for each depreciation area to have the cost center of each individual asset posted with its corresponding amount.
Thanks for your time.

Hi,
activate the accounting object cost center for "APC posting" in the appropriate IMG step FI-AA. Check that there is a cost element behind the P&L account and that the field status allows the cost center to be posted in the G/L account. Then ASKB will post to CC also.

Markus

Asset Postings on Internal Order or Cost Center

Hello All,
I created the Asset B/S Recon A/C as Cost Element 90 to have postings on cost Objects.
In ACSET - I customized both IO and CC to have APC postings and Depreciation postings.
But when I post an acquisition, Iam not seeing either an IO or CC in the Document.
Am I missing some thing.
Thanks.

Hi Venkat,
Make the fields Cost center and CO/PP Order as optional in field status group that you will assign in GL Master Record.
I think for reconciliation account, we generally assign G067 field status group. Go to T'code OBCD and double click on G067 - Reconciliation accounts - Additional account assignments and make those fields optional.

Asset Postings on Statistical Internal orders

Hi
Is it possible to see asset transactions on a statistical internal order? I have assigned a statistical order on the asset master record but can not see the acquisition and other asset related postings on the order. Of course in all the postings there is a real CO object.
Thanks

Hi Sreenkanth
I have used all the reports in Internal Orders including the one you suggest and what is happening is that all the cost elements that have been posted to are displayed in the report, but the asset statistical cost element shows no values. Even when you click on the amount field and call up another report e.g. actual line items, which is what I think you meant by break up report, there are no values shown.
Thanks

How to do Asset postings to multiple ledgers in different company codes?

Dear All,
what settings I need to do to satisfy the followoing need:
I have two company codes. One company code c1 has only Leading ledger and the other company code c2 has leading and local ledgers. From Asset accounting point of view:
1. Can I create one US chart of depreciation and multiple depreciation areas to satify this? The Asset classes are same for both company codes? I will use one area 01 to leading ledger ( for both c1, c2), another area 30 to C2 company for local and another area 31 for c2 for difference of both the initial areas (30 - 1). Will this work?
or
2. Do I need to create two separate US chart of depreciations to satisfy the need?
Regards,
Giri.

Hi Giri,
First of all few points you need to consider. If both of your companies C1 and C2 are in US than technically speaking you should only create 1 chart of depreciation instead of creating 2 separate for each company. The more chart of depreciation you create the more maintenance it requires. This chart of depreciation gets assigned as company code level. Also, by default postings from your leading ledger gets replicated in your non-leading ledger unless you specifically post in one specific ledger only.
So considering above facts, for your approach # 1, any postings for comp code C1 needs to go only in your leading ledger - area 01 (making sure that it doesnt replicate in area 30) and for comp code C2 you can let it default it to area 30 and get the difference from area 31.
For your approach # 2, you will have more maintenance but atleast 2 separate chart of depreciations (COD) where in 1 COD you can specify area 01 and in 2nd COD you can specify area 01 and 30.
Hopefully this helps littlebit on your approach.
