Asset and sub asset simoultaneous retirement

can i config the system such a way that for specific assets...if i retire the main asset the sub assets are retired automatically....

Hi,
I don't think, this is possible.
The purpose of subnumber is to control subsequent acquisition to the main asset and/or represent complex fixed assets with their component parts.
You can retire all the subnumbers with multiple option in ABAON but I don't think you can default retirement of all subnumbers when you retire main asset.

Memo Value for Main Asset and Sub Asset

Dear Experts,
I am having the requirement that, all the main asset should have the memo value Rs 1.
For this I have specified the memo value in OAYI. But system is taking the memo value for Main asset as well as Sub asset.
But we don't want to keep the memo value for sub asset.
I hope, I am missing some settings. Could anyone please help me to solve this.
Regards,
Aswin

Hi:
You need to review your copy settings for sub assets for your relevant class's screen layout in SPRO...Financial Accounting,,,,Asset Accounting....Master data....Define Screen Layout for Asset Master Data....Select the screen layout which has been assigned to your asset class in OAOA. You will not find any field for value copied. So it is not possible to avoid this happening becuase it is done a t CO code level.

Re-link Assets and Place Assets Folder Navigation

Can you PLEASE fix the bug in Muse that causes the folder to reset (don't know if I'm explaining this clearly) when re-linking assets, and placing assets. To clarify, when I re-link an asset in Adobe Muse it defaults to 'My Computer' instead of the last folder used. This is occasionally happening when placing assets as well. It is EXTREMELY frustrating, and VERY disruptive to the workflow having to navigate to the same folder OVER and OVER and OVER. Indesign does not have this issue, can you not have this work in the same manner? (Actually until an dAdobe Air update last year this was not an issue.) It need s to be fixed IMMEDIATELY, before any new 'paralax scrolling' or such is introduced.
Thank You and I hope I can garner support from other users on this issue.

Here's how ID works with links:
First, the links in the file are absolute paths, meaning they refer to a particular location. If that location is acessible, ID will find the link and all is well. If the location is not acessible (on your colleague's hard drive, for example) ID will look for the links first in the current folder from which the .indd file was opened, and if nothing is found there, in any subfolders.
But why are you both relinking? Do you both need to work with the links for output? Since CS4 there has been a Preference under File Handling that allows you to choose whether or not to find and update links when opening files, and it seems most likely to me that one of you should be ignoring missing and modified links and jut getting to work.

Asset and sub number

Dear all ,
i have 1000 chairs , i dont want to create 1000 asset as main asset.
Can i have one main asset as CHAIR and 1000 chairs as sub asset ?
how to create the same.
and also what is super asset?

Hello,
The Tcode for creating subasset is AS11.
What is the reason for creating 1000 sub asset unless you want to track each chair location.
Super Asset is used for information/reporting purpose. For Example a Desktop computer will consist of CPU, Monitor, Mouse, Keyboard etc. Each item is a seperate asset but they are tagged together through Super Asset Number.
Thanks

Legacy asset and acquire asset

I have some assets in company code A001 in SAP server s001. now company code A001 is decommissioning.
we want to move some assets to company code B001 in SAP server S002.
for example asset 35000010 has APC value 10000 USD, accumulated depreciation 3000 USD, by using ab01 asset
acquisition in B001, we can achieve this, I also find by using AS91 also can create legacy asset in B001.
My question is: should i use AS91 or AB01 for asset migration,
what's the PRO and CON for above two methods, thanks

You can do this in both the ways.
AS91 - Legacy to SAP
Normally you transfer within different company codes with ABT1N.
- create a new asset in the receiving company code
- transfer
Unfortunately activation of the multiple asset transfer button is not possible for inter-company transfers through transaction ABT1N or ABUMN.
Hope it helps
Thanks

Assets transfer using ABUMN and getting error already retired.

Hi AA Gurus
I have two assets and want to move to sub assets of another asset.e.g asset 201,202 to be transfered to 203-1,203-2.
I created sub asset using AS11.I am transferring to sub assets using ABUMN. I get ever time error as "Transaction on asset 123 203-1 not possible, retirement already in document ". This asset is not retired. So I created 2 assets fresh ( doc date ,acqusition date of today to experiment ) and then created a sub asset using As11. When I tried ABUMN for transferring it came up with
same message retirement not possible ,retirement already in doc. What is happening here ? I have checked the asset using as03 and don't see as retired ( i just created the asset ). Kindly give me some idea how to transfer two assets to sub assets of another asset.
I have checked other similar question on forum but solution did not work for me.Kindly give me some idea why this error keep coming even though asset is not retired and created today itself to test ABUMN.
Thanks in advance

Here are my observation and question in itlaic .Kindly suggest me what should be done.
Please go to Financial Accounting -> Asset Accounting -> Master data -> Specific Time-Independent Management of Organizational Units
Not checked for any co code.
If you set this indicator, the system manages the organizational units 'business area' and 'cost center' (and thereby 'profit center') as not time dependent in the asset master records in this company code.
Any change to these organizational units during master data maintenance then automatically generates a transfer posting document.
If the indicator is not set, you have to create a new asset master record, and manually transfer the entire asset, when the business area changes (and you are using business area balance sheets).
I am doing it manually only.I don't think that there is organizationla units change is invloved.I have two assets and I am transferring it as two sub assets of a new asset ( created for this purpose only ).All the assets are of same class.
Also, please go to Asset accounting -> Integration with GL -> Post depreciation to General Ledger -> ... -> Activate account assignment objects
Please check if assignment object KOSTL has field "BalSh" ticked.
No it is not ticked. Other two active and agreement are ticked.
Account assignment objects that are relevant to the balance sheet can no longer be changed directly in the asset master record once the asset has been capitalized. Instead, such assets have to be transferred to a new asset master record to make this change.

Scrap Asset and its sub assets in one transaction code

Please suggest if it is possible to scrap an asset and all its sub assets in one transaction as opposed to scrapping them separately in ABAVN.
regards
Rekha

Click on the button Multiple assets and fill in there the main asset and sub numbers. You have to fill them all in. There is no transaction that you can do this with filling in only the main-asset number

Process of Sub Assets

Hi Gurus,
Can you please tell me the process of Sub Assets in AUC and in normal assets as well?
How to capitalize it, retire it, what to do if any sub assets is gone for repairing?
Please revert asap.
Thank You

Hi,
A sub asset is one ore more subs on an main asset.
When you use investment orders/projects I think you can't use sub-assets.
When you have sub-assets for AUC in asset accounting it is possible.
Sub assets you are use to make a group of assets that belongs to one object.
In the fieldstatus you can set up the copy rules from the main asset to the sub-asset and what you can change.
In the sub asset you can have different depreciation rules, cost center,.. from the main asset.
Like the boulding (main asset) depreciation is 40 years. In year 5 you do an investment then you say 35 years
You have to retire the main and sub assets separate
How and if to use sub assets is based on your requeirements, first the requirements and then to found a solution and not the way arround otherwise you have still 100 options

1.ASSET CLASSES
First you create three asset classes for:
ex:
   ASSET CLASS                              NUMBER RANGE
1.Plant & machinery                               100-200
2.Plant& Machinery for Group Assets-     500-600
3.Plant & Machinery AUC                       1000-1100
2.CREATE ASSETS
First you create AUCEX; 1000
THEN POST THE TRANSACTIONS
3.If you want settele thisauc to fixed asset.
a. first you create group asset ex: 500
b. then create Fixed asset ex: 100
at the time of creation of Fixed asset , you have to mention in tehasset masster what is the Group asset no:
for ex; with in 100 you have to mention 500.
Then settele the AUC TO fIXED ASSET.
From here what ever transactions youare osted to Fixed aseet it will update in Group asset also.

Sub asset master

hello gurus,
what is the use with sub asset master? can't we create an asset with asset master? will we calculate dep. on asset or sub asset?
Pls clarify my doubts
N.M.B

If Main Asset is "Tractor" the "Trailor" becomes a sub-asset or the Farming equipment you attach to the tractor is Sub-asset.
If an asset can perform independently that is Main asset. If the asset has to be attched to some other asset for performing then this is a sub-asset.
Depreication is calculated at Main asset level which includes the sub asset depreciations.
reward if useful.

Transferring from one asset to multiple assets

Dear SAPians
How can we transfer from one asset to more than one assets. Can we do it thru ABUMN or there's any other way?
Regards
Zain

Hi Dominic,
Thanks for your reply.
I have tried ABUMN. I am entering into the transaction ABUMN and specifiying transaction data (posting and asset value dates). Then I am pressing the "Multiple assets" button after which a List option is available.
I am entering the amount or percentage in partial tranfer tab.
Then I am entering asset numbers in 'from asset' and 'to asset' fields like:
From asset 300000001 to 300000005
From asset 300000001 to 300000007
When I am pressing enter, it accepts only one entry from above specified list.
That means it allows only one to one asset transfer not one to many. Is there any other setting or way to do asset tranfer from one asset to multiple assets?
regards
Zain

Useful Life for Assets and Asset Sub Numbers

I am just learning about SAP Asset Accounting, for an implementation project, and I have a question about the Useful life of an Asset Sub Number when setting up Assets with Asset Sub numbers.
Does the useful life of the Asset Sub number have to be the same as the useful life of the Asset Main number?
I would like to know if I can set up an Asset, such as a building, with the asset main number, that has a useful life of say 40 years, then create asset sub numbers for things like the HVAC system that has a useful life of say 15 years.
I am not sure if it would be better to use a group asset for this situation or not.
Thank you in advance for any help you can give me with this!
Amy Hay

Amy,
"Does the useful life of the Asset Sub number have to be the same as the useful life of the Asset Main number?"
No. A sub number can have completely different attributes from it's main asset (cost center, order, keys, UL...).
The situation you're describing is possible and from a design perspective it <i>can</i> be a good idea. Yes, you can create a main asset "Building" with a 40 year UL, but then have sub-assets for other major components (HVAC, Elevator, Security). This is one of the two types of design techniques for sub assets (a component based design). The other is based on the year of capital improvements. For instance, you could create a subasset "2007" and settle all projects related to capital improvements to that subasset. That way you would get visibility into capital acquisitions in FIAA reporting without having to goto CO or PS.
I would definitely <b>not</b> recommend using group assets. Group assets are used for composite depreciation scenarios and do more than just "group" similar records together.

Can we build equity and acquire assets without banks while rebuilding credit??

Hi.Thank you for taking a look at my post. I hope we can help each other. I have 3 goals for this post. 1 - to reach out to this community for opinions, leads, and hopefully contact info for private lenders who really do lend based on the asset and not focus on our marred credit. 2 - maybe members (and of course me) can find someone else on this site who is/are in similar situations and can put resources together to start making lots of money without the banks. 3 - just being honest...I simply need to vent my frustrations in a safe environment where I'm sure there are others who can relate :-) I am getting back into real estate fix & flip, rehab after several years of life altering events and recuperating from personal injuries. I am not an agent or anything like that. I'm just really good at finding and negotiating awesome deals that I end up having to flip. I've worked my butt off to save and purchased one here and there but I need to find funding to get to the next level. I joined this site because my credit is in repair and I'm working the information I read about in this forum. Having gone from a high level of success to wondering how I was going to get from the bedroom to the bathroom, I feel like this is the one place I can trust to put myself out there and get meaningful, non-judgmental peer-peer responses with solid pertinent information. Hence why I could use some opinions and hope to get some leads on lenders that might help me out. With several properties under contract, I'll have to flip to other buyers at discounted values if I can't find a lender. I've spoken with about 20 lenders who claim they are "private", "hard money", "Asset-based" commercial loans, investor driven, bad credit, blah...blah...blah...only to find out they really are just like dealing with a bank. I am not claiming to have great credit and I realize on paper I look pretty weak. However, the whole time they are making claims they are not credit driven...what do you think the first thing they want is...yup...credit scores! Even though the numbers of the asset are very strong and purchased in an LLC. They all require full doc personal financials...the whole time they are saying they don't really judge you on credit....RIGHT! While these "direct lenders" and "private money lenders" may not have to work under the federal bank lending regulations, THEY are not interested in anyone who doesn't meet THEIR rigid requirements. Which in reality are exactly the same as the regular banks. I have yet to find one lender that truly bases their decisions on the property asset without pulling credit, bank statements, etc. They all will only lend a portion of what is needed (50 -75% LTV or LTC )based on the lowest value they can determine (Purchase price or appraisal which ever is lower) which means they have essentially no risk and the investor has to bring in a lot of cash. No difference. They are essentially all the same and just boast about being different. This is all fine if that is how they run their business. I am the last to judge them for that. However, I am tired of wasting my time talking to company after company making these claims but really won't put their money where their mouth is!! I have also looked into a lot of the sites for peer-peer funding. In general they are all fantastic and serve a great purpose. Especially for kids and fundraising purposes. But I'm working on a business. On those sites, you really have to put your self out there on the front line and air your dirty laundry to the world in order to participate. I realize I could do that and tell my sad story and why I want people to invest in me and my project. Frankly, maybe I'm too proud or going about this all wrong but I'm just not ready to post my story to the world and ask my friends and family for handouts. I don't want people feeling sorry for me or my name all over the internet telling people my credit sucks (even though it isn't that bad now). Let's be honest - who posts on a peer-peer funding site for their own benefit if you have your financial life in order!! That said, I'm sure none of us would be on this site if we didn't have or have had financial turmoil in our lives. Who cares why.. it happens. Hopefully, we all realize that is not what defines us as people and we can all achieve our dreams like any one else. It just might take longer, or a bit more work. You get the picture. So I thought, what if others on this site are experiencing the same things. Do you feel like you are missing out on opportunities to make your money grow? Maybe you have improved your credit but don't have enough cash to get a loan. Maybe you can't get a loan because of credit but you have cash. Maybe you can't get a bank account and are missing out on investment opportunities because your money is sitting under your mattress. Seems to me people on this sight are all focused on the same thing and have the best interests of others in sight. We also have this fantastic forum to discuss our money issues and glean insight and information from others that helps us improve our situations. I'm wondering if we could partner up our strengths and find ways to benefit by working together with other like minded members. You thoughts are of great value. Please post.

Are you debt free? Do you have any cash to throw into this? If no... what about subbing out under someone else or getting in GCing or Foreman for a bigger company while you cleanup your personal finances? Real estate is AWESOME, but if you can't cashflow at least a good chunk of it, you can get in a pretty scary spot... What kind of assets do you have? Could you flip your own home and use those monies to invest in your next flip and live as cheap as possible through a few flips until you have a good bit of cash built up?

Settlement of Investment Order - Auto creation of Sub asset for settlement

< MODERATOR: Message locked. Please post this in the [ERP Financials - Asset Accounting|SAP ERP Financials - Asset Accounting;. >
Dear experts
Request your help on Investment orders settlement.
We are doing settlement of Investment orders to sub asset numbers, where sub assets are created well in advance.
Our client want system to create sub asset numbers automatically, while doing the settlement of Investment orders itself.
Is it possible ?, If possible, please let me know, what are the settings I need to do to meet this requirement.
Thanks in advance
S. Habib Pasha.

Hiya,
Go to IMG --> Controlling --> IO --> Actual Postings --> Settlement --> Automatic Generation of Settlement Rules.
There is no SAP Standard created for settlements to sub-assets, so you'll need to create one using option 4 there "User-Defined Strategies for Automatic Generation ...".
Once this is done, get an ABAP Developer to code the settlement rule by creating a custom project in that same transaction. The rule will be similar to the SAP Standard ones created in option 1 of the same node.
Once this is done, create strategy sequences for this, and assign to Order Type(s).
If your users can maintain a basic investment profile when creating the Order Master Data, the developer can be directed to pick that data (aka fields) for the creation of the subasset number.
Hope this helps.
Cheers.
