Clarification Regarding Asset Accounting Chart of Depreciation Copy

Hi,
We have a company code called ACT
For that we have a chart of depreciation assigned is ACT
Number Ranges are 1000000-1999999 (For Example)
Now we configured one more company code called RNC by Copying ACT company code and other settings from ACT company code only.
Clarification required - In Asset Accounting for Company code RNC we are plannint to assign chart of depreciation ACT as it is.
If we do like that - System will take the number ranges from the above ACT number ranges 1000000-1999999 ? or else system will take 1000000-1999999 number ranges from RNC company code? This is my doubt?
I think system will share the 1000000-1999999 number ranges in Asset accounting for both company codes ACT & RNC as we are using Same ACT chart of depreciation for Both company codes.
If we assign Same chart of Depreciation to both ACT and RNC company codes - Is it necessary to do any other configuration or no need to do any?
Kindly clarify my doubt
Thanks
Supriya

Hello,
Make sure that the both the company codes are in a single country before assigning the same chart of depreciation.
The number range of assets are defined at company code level. Meaning that you can have the same asset number in different company codes. The system will not share the number ranges across company codes.

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.<b> It is usually not necessary to create a separate fiscal year variant for Asset Accounting.</b>
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

Incorrect posting in asset accounting after legacy asset transfer

I have an issue in Asset accounting.
The depreciation key used is LINA (with a base method 0009 and Dec. bal. method 001 straight line depreciation)
My question is:
An asset was acquired 02/01/2005. It has an expected useful life of 1/11.
Under AS93.
I see the asset ***. acquisition value 205,695.00
Accu.ord. deprec - 78,784.06
The asset was transferred to SAP at 03/31/2007.
Now In aw01n I see the following:
Legacy data transfer Per 3 Ord. deprec 10,143.87
Posted Per 4 13,364.13
Posted 5 5877.00
Posted 6. 5877
Till 8th month posted 5877.
The posted values are wrong. Since it was transferred to SAP it has a useful life
of 1 year. At this rate it will go for 3 years.
What can I do to rectify this error?
Why is it posting 5877?
Thanks,

Hi Roma,
The useful life has to be the Total Useful life of the asset.
Since your useful life is less than the expired usefull life the system is calculating depr. for after the end of useful life, which for base method 0009 is curbing.
<i>Curb
With depreciation beyond the planned useful life, the depreciation percentage rate can be derived, not only from the planned useful life, but also from the actual useful life. This method produces a declining-balance effect instead of a straight-line effect (curb).
Use Base Method 0007, this does not curb.
Kind regards
An asset that originally had a useful life of 10 years is depreciated in year 11 by 1/11 = 9.09 %, in year 12 by 8.33 % and in year n with 100/n %.
When you use below-zero depreciation with a curb, the system determines the percentage rate, after the end of planned life, to the exact period and not to the year.</i>

What is mean of write-up in asset accounting

Dear all,
In asset accounting what is the mean of WRITE-UP.In which case we use this transaction. Can we use this t.code for any movement.
Advise me
Thanks & Regards,
Srinivas

Hi
A write-up is generally understood to be a later change to the valuation of an asset. This change can take different forms, depending on the reasons for the change. There are two common reasons for write-ups:
1.     You forgot to capitalize an asset in a fiscal year that is now closed, and this omission must now be corrected (write-ups to APC are usually called post-capitalization). Current year income statement gets a credit for the extent of post-capitalization amount given the assumption that the Vendor invoice was booked as an expense in the previous fiscal year.
2.     The value adjustments (depreciation) that you calculated in the past were too high. You must now correct this error using a write-up in the current fiscal year. Excessive depreciation generally results from:
u2022     The use of incorrect depreciation terms (incorrect expected useful life, incorrect depreciation key)
u2022     Unplanned depreciation, which is no longer valid in the current situation
u2022     A later reduction in the acquisition and production costs of an asset (for example, due to a subsequent credit memo).

FICO : Asset Accounting - Depreciation Run Issue

Dear Friends,
I have an issue in asset accounting.
Let me explain the actual background of this issue.
1. I created a new company code(2000) by copying the existing one(1000 along with the closed year 2009
2. After that when i was trying to post acquisition for an asset i got the below error
You cannot post to asset in company code 2000 fiscal year 2011
3. Then i closed the year 2010 and opened 2011, it allowed me to post in the month of june
4. Now i am trying to run the depreciation for june, its giving the below error.
According to posting cycle, you should post period 001 next
5. What could be the reason for this error , is it the correct procedure what i am doing it now?
Please help if someone has an idea about that
Thanks ,
Perumal.

Hi,
You can get the solution if you double click the error message.
Please note that depreciation of current month can only be posted if the depreciation dycles till the previous month is completed. Coming to your case, you have opened the year 2011 and trying to post depreciation for period 6. You need to run the depreciation cycles from period 1 to 5 before trying to post for period 6.

Asset Accounting: Lineal Depreciation

Hey!
I have implanted the module of Asset Accounting. We have defined a lineal depreciation Key for some assets. But when we enter to the Asset explorer (AW01N), we can see that we have different values for each posting period (the posting periods are defined in months). I think this is because each month have diferente days so Sap calculate different values. We think that SAP is considering if the month has 31 days or 30 days.
I want the depreciation to be calculated with the same value each month. In what point of the cuztomizing I can define this?
Thank you in advance,
Leyre

Pls check the settings for the period control methods where you can define the no.of days with FV, based on the days wise you can restrict the depreciation amounts calulation, but the specific amounts option will not be available to serve your purpose.
Let me know for any further info.

Suresh

How to delete depreciation areas when a posting is made in asset accounting

Hi All,
We are implementing asset accounting to few of our company codes as a new company code start up project. We have opened depreciation areas for tax for one company code and found that we are not going to use this company code for asset accounting.
We have already opened 2 depreciation areas one for tax and the other as difference between book and tax depr in our development client. One of our member has created an asset and posted values to it. Now, we were told that we dont need to open the depreciation areas. When i am trying to delete it system giving error message saying you cannot delete the derived depr as the values have already been posted.
Please advice how i should proceed with the above issue for deleting the depreciation areas. Your help is much appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Hi Rose,
For the below mentioned issue do the following:
1) reset all the depreciation data ( t code OAGL)
2) reset all the asset account co code data (t code OABL)
then u can go and delete the depreciation areas.

Kiran

Write Up Depreciation Issue.

Dear All Experts ,
I am having issue regarding Write Up depreciation. I am calculating Write Up through ABZU with
Transaction Type key 711. It is being calculated too but the concerning amount is not hitting to the GL
account. And transaction is generating document type AA ( Asset Posting ) instead of AF
My account created for Write up depraciation is assign in Unpalanned depreciation account
assignment section => Expense account for unplanned depreciation field.
Please let me know whether I am correct or not ?
Please keep discussion on for further assistance.
Your help is highly appreciated.
Regards,
Pankaj.

Hi,
Paul.
I checked the same in T.Code AO78 that document type assign is AA. But the earlier postings are
showing in GL A/C as AF document. How it is so ? For year 2007 depreciation the user has posted
document in 2008 which successfully got poted. But for 2008 when we try to post in this current year it
is not hitting concerning GL.
I have already told you my account assignment position in AO90 ( In earlier principal thread ).
Write up depreciation is Ordinary depreciation , Special Dpreciation , or Unpalanned depreciation ?
Please elaborate the same , so I will get some insights. And please let me know for account
assignment whether it is right or wrong ? ( If wrong rectify me )
Your help is highly appreciated.

can see the other depreciation values? If we cant see for which purpose we are using other
depreciation areas?
5) Vendor and Customer balances get update regularly or once in a month or year?

Hi Krishna,
Thanks for your reply,But still I need some more clarifications please respond........
2) What is the importance of Recalculate value button in Asset Accounting?-
(A)recalculates depr when asset parameters are changed
Where it will be there as it(recalculate button) is not there in AFAB
3) Suppose I have 1000 assets, if I want to run depreciation only for 200 assets how can I do that?
(A)select those 200 and run depreciation
Here Assets Selection option is there only in test run not there in update run.
4) If suppose I have 5 Depreciation areas, I am able to see the book depreciation values only, where I can see the other depreciation values? If we cant see for which purpose we are using other depreciation areas? (A)use AW01N- you cans ee all dep areas
In AW01N only book depreciation values is displayed,how can I see other depreciation area values

Re - Process asset accounting year end process

Hi,
Case- XYZ company is already on K4 fiscal year variant, they want to switch from K4 (calendar year) to V3 (Non- calendar year). Standard SAP process is to create shortened fiscal year for 3 months. But this is only allowed if no entries posted in new fiscal year. This XYZ company is already in the month of Feb. How can we manage this situation in SAP. Asset accounting is implemented in the system. Planned depreciation has already been calculated for 12 months, how can we rewrite planed depreciation? and depreciation has been posted for one Jan 2011.
Plan 1- Keep K4 variant as it is and control this with the help of OB52 to restrict posting. This will allow them to run their day to day process with out any errors in fiscal year 2011
Plan 2 - Maintain K4 as shortened fiscal year and update table T093C to allow system to identify that this 2011 fiscal year is shortened fiscal year. but in both cases question remains what to do with planned depreciation of remaining 9 months?
Waiting for your feed back.
Thanks and Regards,
Sany..

Hi
The system will show you the list of Assets which are incomplete.
I think for the incomplete asset you have not assign the group asset.
Hence in AS02 transaction enter one by one the incomplete assets and complete the same. then run the AJAB transaction which will allow you to close the asset year.
if the answer is helpful kindly assign points
Thanks & Regards
Mahesh

Error - Asset Accounting

Hi All,
I have an Issue in Asset Accounting.Details are mentioned bellow. Pls help me with your advices to resolve this.
Fiscal year assigned for our Company Code is Z1 and it starts from April 2007 till March 2008. We have run the depreciation for 8 periods (i.e., from April 2007 to Dec 2007). After posting the depreciation for December 2008, Management has decided to change the fiscal year to April 2007 to Dec 2007. So that we will have the Calendar year as the Fiscal year from 2008 (jan 2008 to Dec 2008). So that i have change the posting periods by shortened the fiscal year.
As System calculates the depreciation for 12 months and it distributes into 12 periods in that year, postings are done for the first 9 months (Apr 2007 to Dec 2007). And there is balance of 3 months depreciation not posted in the system according to the system initial calculation. So while running the depreciation for 1st Posting Period of 2008 (jan 2008) system has shown error. And so that i have test run the depreciation (AFAB) for the December 2007 with selection of Repeat Run. Results of the test run shows as Amount Posted in Dec 2003 is with correct figures and amount to be posted is with the amount of the 3 months depreciation. So system is expected to post the 3 months Depreciation. Only then we could able to run the depreciation for January 2008.
But we are not required to post those 3 months depreciation in Dec 2007 as that is the last posting period in 2007 and we have already posted the depreciation for this month.
Pls help me to provide the solution to change the amounts which are shown in Amount to be posted column if i repeat run for Dec 2007.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Rao

Check whether you haev made the settings in the following path.

Asset Accounting

Assets are uploaded on 1st March 2007. Depreciation Start Date is 1st March 2007. We have run the depreciation upto October 2007. Version 4.7. Fiscal Year variant is K4 (Jan to Dec).
Now, the requirement is for around 200 assets - we want to reduce the value of Gross block on 31st March 2007. And from 1st April 2007 we don't want depreciation on these 200 assets. That means for these 200 assets, only one month depreciation will be there and from 1st April they should not be any depreciation.
Please help
Thanks & Regards
Points for every helpful answer

The situation is like this -
Gross Block value          -     Rs. 100
Depreciation for March    -     Rs.    6
so,
Net Block value              -     Rs. 94
Now,
we want this Rs.94 should come down by say Rs.80. on 31st March 2007
So, I am thinking of posing Credit memo on 31st March 2007.
So, Net Block will become Rs.14
Rs. 80 should go to GL Loss on Account held for Sale
and
Rs. 14 should be in GL Asset held for Sale or separate these Assets should be in a separate Asset Class called Asset held for Sale.
I think I have two options for this -
Option 1
Change the Depreciation Key as 0000
Post Credit Memo on 31st March 2007 (GL - Loss on Assets held for Sale)
Repeat Run the Depreciation
Post Unplanned Depreciation for March 2007
Post Manual entry for GL Assets held for Sale
Option 2
Post Credit Memo 0n 31st March 2007 (GL - Loss on Assets held for Sale)
Post Manual reverse entry of the Depreciation
Change the Depreciation Key for the Assets - so that no depreciation further
Post Manual entry for GL Assets held for Sale
Can anybody suggest which one would be best or is there any other better way to do this.
If u have some idea give me a missed call on 09448182333. I will call u back.
Pl. help. this is very urgent.
