Asset accounting revaluation and period control

Hi, does somebody know how is the period control determined for Revaluation? For example, I make manual revaluation in ABAW with asset value date 01.01.2007 and I want the effect on the depreciation to begin from the same month. Now it begins from next month and I suppose the period control is linked to the period control for 'acquisitions' (set up as from next month).
To say it directly, how can I customize the period control for Revaluation?
Thanks in advance,
Lyubomir

Hi Andreas,
I have tried this too, but when I create it I cannot navigate to this view. Obviously this can only be acheived through direct maintenatce in the table. However one upgrade will overwrite your changes and this is not a good solution.
Thanks for your help. I understood that the period control can be viewed in table TABWG as well - there I understood saw that the period control of my transactio types have period control as for acquisitions.
Best regards,
Lyubomir

What is the difference between /assets/account/import and /data/account ?

Does anybody knows what is the use of /assets/account/import and /data/account.
What is the difference between these two and their functional use.
thanks

/assets/account/import is used in the context of performing account file uploads through the E10 UI. If you navigate to Contacts > Accounts > and click Upload in the top right corner (above search), you'll get the upload wizard:
The moment you click the cloud icon and select a file, two actions take place:
1) POST to /assets/account/import is made, where you are passing the name, import source and purpose of the import. The response includes the id of the new import object you created
2) Another POST to /assets/account/import/{id}/csv is made, which includes the data in your chosen file
Afterwards, you perform the mappings and go to step 4 of the wizard. When you click Finish, another two actions take place:
1) PUT /assets/account/import/{id} to update the import definition with your mappings from Step 3
2) POST to /assets/account/import/{id}/queue to send this import into the import/upload queue. At this point it becomes visible from Setup > Integration > Inbound > Reporting > Upload History
Note that this workflow is not meant for client use, but rather helps facilitate UI functionality for marketing users. You should be using Bulk API to add or update records, which also confers other advantages such as the ability to use syncActions. The only functionality not available in Bulk API which is available through this workflow is the ability to delete Accounts. For obvious reasons, its recommend that you do NOT automate the deletion of any records. Accounts especially are not subject to any band limits or rates, so its best to have Marketers remove them as needed.
Regarding the second part of your question, the /data/accounts endpoint will provide you with up to 1000 account records when using GET. A POST can also be made to create a new account record (company) within Eloqua. Otherwise, GET /data/account/{id} will retrieve the details of a particular record and PUT /data/account{id} will update a particular.

Mid month convention - Period Control method

Hi
My client wants to calculate depreciation for mid month. i.e, Asset acquired after 15th of a month should be considered for next month depreciation calculation.
A new dep key and period control have been asked to create.
In this case, what are the steps that needs to be done?
Pl help me out.
Thanx..
Prasad

Copy a key and start it with Z.For period control use the second one, which is called "pro rata upto mid-period per period start date. What this method does is if the asset is put in service upto the middle of the period(month-generally) the depreciation starts beginning of the period, if it is after the middle of the period the start date is the beginning of the next period(month).
Please assign points for this correct answer.

Account group and Account Type.

Hi all,
Could you please tell me the diferences between GL Account group (by example cash, expense, revenue ....) which we define in IMG - Financial Accounting - General Ledger Accounting - G/L Accounts - Master Records - Preparations - Define Account Group and Account Type (by example: Vendor, Customer, Material, GL Account) which is in the screen "create account type" IMG - Financial Accounting - Financial Accounting Global Settings - Document - Document Header - Define Document Types ?
Thank you very much.
Sylvecast

Hi
Account Group Controls the Master records. It controls the number range of Master record and Field status group (Supress, Required, Optional and Display) also. SAP follows a Grouping principle all throughout SAP to handle the Master Records that may be in GL, AR AP any thing. See to create a GL Account group you define at OBD4 there itself you assign the Number Range or those groups which also controls Field Staus of GL Master Records. And for Creating AR and AP Master Records you create at OBD2 and Vendor at OBD3 which will also controls Field Status Group of And Number range of Master record. The only difference between GL and AR/AP is assigning of number range. For GL will specify at OBD4 itself but for AR/AP we need to create a number range at FBN1 then assign to AR And AP at OBD2 and OBD3 respectively.
One more thing. Remember only Field Status group of Master recard (OBD2, OBD3, OBD4) only contain Display option but not to Posting Key or Field Satus Group (OB41 or OBC4). I am so specifing becoz I commited this mistake in one interview.
In summary, the account group controls:
i) The number ranges of the accounts,
ii) The status of the fields in the company code segment of the master record. Since a chart of accounts contains many different types of accounts, they can be bundled into different "account groups ". Usually one account group bundles
accounts with the same tasks within the general ledger, e. g. cash accounts, material accounts, asset accounts, profit and loss
accounts,...

Question on SAP Asset Accounting

Dear Friends,
We are working on a new enhancement for our project. In this development we have to implement parallel ledger with Asset Accounting. We have already Asset Accounting implemented, and two months of depreciation already posted. The current COD is now used by 4 company codes across 4 countries.
Our Requirement.
1. We have 4 ledgers. with OL, we have US for US GAAP, and two Nonleading ledger LS, LT for Australia, Local reporting. The requirement is the Asset posting happening in Asset environment should hit all the ledgers( OL, US, LS, LT)
Solution planned - We thought to create a new COD and assign the depreciation areas with the ledger groups . BUT WE ARE NOT SURE HOW CHANGING THE COD IN THE SYSTEM IN THE SYSTEM WILL IMPACT.
2. We have another requirement. for any acquisition of Low Value Asset, we have to
For Australian reporting the entry should be
Asset A/C ....... DR
to Vendor A/C
For US reporting the same transaction entry should be
Asset Expenses A/C ........... DR
To Vendor.
Solution Planned - We planned to create two different Depreciation Area for LVA transaction and for one LVA depreciation area we will maintain Asset Account in APC account and in another LVA depreciation Area we will maintain Asset Expenses GL as APC account. BUT not sure how the system will react.
Please reply the above doubt. We are in a very critical position in our project.
Regards
Ranjan82

HI ,
For point 1
You can define depreciation area and in Integration wth GL you can define the Traget ledger group of posting for each depreciation as below screen shot
For Point 2 you can create a depreciation key with 100 % which will depreciate asset fully in same here and will book as expese . I have done this for many conutries and it works without effecting any other thing in system .
Please test these in you test system and let me know if you need more help .
many Thanks

Where we have to open and close posting periods in asset accounting

hi sap gurus
can anybody give where we have to open and close posting periods in asset accounting
thank you
venkatareddy

Hi Venkatareddy,
You make specifications for fiscal years and posting periods in the SAP R/3 System in Customizing for Financial Accounting. This is done in the fiscal year variant in the global parameters of the company code. These settings are, in general, also binding for Asset Accounting. The depreciation periods in Asset Accounting then correspond to the posting periods in Financial Accounting. It is usually not necessary to create a separate fiscal year variant for Asset Accounting.
The period control in the depreciation key determines the start and end of depreciation when asset transactions are posted . The period control determines the relationship between the calendar period in which the asset transaction is posted and the depreciation period.
These calendar periods are independent of the posting periods in Financial Accounting. The only restriction is that the beginning of the first calendar period and the end of the last calendar period defined in a period control have to match the start date and final date of the fiscal year in Financial Accounting.
Kindly let me know if this useful for you

Period Control in Asset accounting

Can someone explain me how the period control works? Also how will we determine period control for 'Mid-Quater' convention.
Please help me out on this. Thanks and regards,
Vishal.

Period Control Method is a system object that controls what assumptions the system makes when revaluating asset transactions that are posted partway through a period.
Using the period control method, for example, you can instruct the system only to start revaluating asset acquisitions in the first full month after their acquisition.
The period control method also allows different sets of rules for different types of asset transactions, for example, acquisitions and transfers.
Regarding determining period control 'mid quarter', it is based on the assumptions of the business for the asset revaluation.
PS: Please award points if you find the answer as useful. Your rewarding will motivate me in the future to answer more questions. Thanks.

Period Control Method 01 and 03 Mid Month Convention

Hi All,
I am trying to create two different depreciation keys.
One is with Period rule 01 i.e Pro rata at period start date. Example. If I create an asset any time during the month, the ordinary start depreciation should start at the beginning of the month.
Secondly another deprecation key with period rule 03 i.e. prorata at mid period. Meaning that the ordinary start deprecation date should be from 15 of the month.
I activate the " Use of Half Months in the Company Code" then the deprecation key with prorata at period start date is behaving like pro rata at mid period.
Example:
I created an asset that was capitalized 5/18. For book depreciation the start date should be 5/1 and for tax it should be 5/15. Both of the areas are showing 5/15. have i missed something?

Issue Resolved
Steps:
1. In transaction OAVS define a new Per control (Z1).
2. In transaction OAVH create the following: My fiscal year is from Aug-July
3. Update transaction AFAMP, create a new period control method and assign it Z1/Z1/Z1/Z1
4. Finally update the period control in the book depreciation key AFAMP.

I have read in the SAP documentation that we need to assign index series to index class. I have not found the place where index class is configured/assigned. Could you please let me know what are the configuration steps for indexing in asset accounting for calculation of replacement value and purpose of each of these steps/fields?

Hi Suresh,
Revaluation is calculated as follows:

Effects of reopening closed periods in Asset Accounting.

Hi SAP Gurus,
My client wants to open the closed periods in Asset accounting. I have used T Code OAAQ and changed the last closed period.
I would like to know what are the effects of opening the closed periods.
Will it effect the already posted depriciation and what further steps should I take after the entries are passed.
Even after I opened the period both in FI and AA it still is giving me a message that I cannot post to this year.
Can you kindly suggest.
Thanks in advance,
Hari

If you post any entries to the asset , the depreciation will change in asset accounting and will not match with the general ledger unless depreciation posting run is executed.
However, since you have already executed depreciation posting, AFAB selecting repeat run in the last period or special period if your company code have special periods.
Caution: It will change the P&L and Balance sheet balances.
Please check the Post Capitalization Option (ABNAN) for asset values missed in the past for capitalization
