Asset - Capitalized Date

Hi
We have uploaded TB as on 20th Nov 08. Now we would like to upload asset masters and giving captilized date as 20/11/2008. When I go to AS91 to create assets, the asset block is in display mode. If I change the capitalized date to 31/03/2008, the asset block in AS91 will come in change mode. What might be the possible cause and how can I bring the asset block to change mode in AS91 taking 20/11/2008.
Thanks
Sanjay

Hi,
Read the following which is posted by you
I need to give capitalized date as at 01.10.2008 and bring the asset blcok to change mode so that I can upload the accumulated depreciation from April 08 till September and then do AFAB for subsequent months.
1. AS91 is for legessy data upload in this cap.date should be the on or before transferdate. in your case transfer date is 30.09.08 but your asset cap.date is 01.10.2008. It is not possible through AS91.
2. If you want to create asset with cap.date 01.10.2008, go to as01 create the asset and post the acquisition through f-90.
If you want to post the deprecation from 01.04.08, put the dep.start date 01.04.08 in the asset. system will calculate depreciation from the same date.
My doubt: why you are createing the asset through as91.
assing points if it is useful
regards,
Gopi.P

Invalid Asset Capitialization Date

We have an asset that was accidentally entered with an Asset Capitalization Date of 10/01/0988. Because of the bad date, SAP will not allow the asset date to be changed or allow the asset record to be deleted on-line. How can we fix the asset?

You can changed the Asset Capitalized date thru AS02 in master data tab.
Check if the field is greyed. If it is then you will need to goto SPRO and into the field variant status.
I am not sure how you capitalized. If you have settled it thru AIAB then simply reverse the document thru AIST.
Check the above two solutions and if not then email me more details please.
Thanks

Creating a new Validation-Asset Master data

Hi ,
Requirement- a warning msg to popup when the capitalized date in AS01 ( under posting information) is a date in a previous fiscal year.
A new validation step was created in GGB0 with the rule:
Prerequisit: Capitalized on < Acquisition yr (ANLA-AKTIV < ANLB-VYEAR)
Check:Capitalized on < Acquisition yr (ANLA-AKTIV < ANLB-VYEAR)
Message:Capitalization is done in a previous year (warning)
and in OAVC,
the validation was made active for the respective company code.
However , an asset creation is possible for a previous fiscal year but the warning message did not pop up.
Please assist.
Thank you,
Niludini A

Hi Niludini
you can simulate the validation rule by clicking at - GGB0>> Asset accounting > select the validation rule> select step " " and then select simulation option in the dropdown under Validation tab.
After activating simulation, please try to create a new asset in another screen without closing the similation tab in order to understand whther the validation is triggerred correctly.
Please also verify that, validation is created under master data and prerequisite may be added as T code - "AS01" .

Asset Value Date determination during settlement from Orders or WBS!

Hi,
I have a scenario on the asset value date and I am not sure what went wrong, asset side or CO side.
The scenario is as following:
1. Asset was converted into the system by 7/31/2008 with $10000.
2. The capitalized on date is 2/29/2008 on the asset master data.
3. On 8/31/ 2008, I charged $300 to an internal order and settled the $300 to this asset. The Asset Value Date on the Asset Explorer is 8/15/2008.
4. On 9/30/2008, I charged #500 to the same internal order and settled the $500 to this asset, the Asset value date on the asset explorer for this charge is still 8/15/2008.
This messed up the depreciation of this asset. Does anyone know how to control the asset value date from the settlement? Do we need to config in Asset side or in Order side? I want the $300 charge's value date is on 8/15/2008 and $500 value date on 9/15/2008. Is this possible?
Thanks,
Ting

In the settlement you can fill in the asset values date.
The first posting is the basis for capitalization date(when you don't fill it in manual), when you fill it in for the second time the Asset Value Date it is no longer relefant.
This is only important when you have say in your depreciation key that the depreciation is based on days( see the help on this field)

Asset master data no "Expired useful life".

Hi expert.
Today our user tell me ,system need her that to enter the filed (ANLC-NDABJ/NDABP) of * expired useful life in year /period * in depreciation area tab . otherwise not allow to save the data.
And i found, all of asset capitalized period on 2011.12 and the start depreciation period on :2012.01 ,the Expired useful life year/period is null and requirement to input the value.
when we enrty the expired useful period.
Expired useful life 000 000 calculated by system (Check)
Message no. AA910
My question:
What's reason and how to fix it ?
Thanks,
Regards,Alex

Hi,
Usually Expired life will be displayed in Asset master once the acquisition. If your capitalization date is in the previous fiscal year (in your case: 2011.12) and in the next period you will able to see asset expired period as 01 period(assume next fiscal year is starting from 2012-01).
I guess you should maintain your capitalization and ordinary depreciation date one and the same

Asset Acquisition with Asset Value Date earlier than GI post.date

Dear all,
I am curently using SAP ECC 6.0. We are not creating AuC assets but directly capitalizing assets from investment accounts.
If a material is issued with a date in March and i try to acquire it with asset value date from a previous period, for example in February, the system doesnt issue any message and lets me post the transaction. The accountants claim that this hadnt been possible in the earlier version of SAP 4.6 that we had been using and that the system had issued an error message - "Posting not possible (Value date earlier than capitalization date)"
The accounting logic is that you cant capitalize an asset with a date earlier than the date when it has been in use, i.e. in our case it`s the date the material has been issued from the warehouse.
Does someone know what logic does SAP follow in this case - and if i can set a validation control that will check and compare the two dates?
Any opinion would be appreciated

Severina Koleva

We are on ECC 5.0 and we do get that message, but it is a warning.
AA348...
that said, you can setup a validation using GGB0 and asset accounting

hi thanks to all.
my situatui is littlebit different. normally capitalization date will take with end date of the asset. in my case asset value date, capitalization date and aquisition date and dep start date also same.but as per these date when we compared with end date the asset useful life should be 10.3 yeaes but i has calculated as 10.1 from the posting date of the document
now i want change teh asset useful life for 10.3 year in master data, how can i change it in mass? and what are the implications?
thanks

Shall we change the capitalization date now? what is the impat ?
Is there any SAP notes available is this regard?
urg please...
Tamilselvan

Hi Tamilselvan,
it can have impact on the derpeciation calculation.
Perhaps it have impact on reporting (for example RAGITT_ALV01 if some transactions are posted bevore the capitalization date.
perhaps the following notes will help you.

Generally this should not be really critically.

Asset capitalization date not appropriate

Hi,,
Please tell me while I run Asset settlement through KO88 in period 7 ie, 22October 2010 asset capitalization and first acquisition date become 31.10.2010 instead of 22.10.2010. Because I executed asset settlement through KO88 on 22.10.2010 which is appearing 31.10.2010. What is the actual logic of taking advance value date instead of taking current date? Is it taking entire month and value is stamped on asset master as last day of month.....
Regards,
Samrat

Dear Samrat,
when you enter the capitalization date manually the system uses this date as the default asset value
date when you post the first acquisition to the asset. If you do not enter a capitalization date in the asset master record, the system   automatically adopts the asset value date of the first acquisition   posting as the capitalization date. The system inserts the asset value    date of the first acquisition posting in the capitalization date field   (Capitalized on...) in the asset master record, when a capitalizing   transaction type is used.
Please check your customizing in IMG: Asset Accounting > Transactions > Specify How Default Asset Value Date is Determined
The System logic with Asset capitilisation date is as follows:
When no capitalization date is entered in the asset master record the posting date of the first posting will be taken as the      capitalization date not the asset value date.
Documentation:
R/3 Library:
Asser Accounting > Basic functions for transactions > Dates in Asset accounting
Default Values for Asset Value Date:
- Initial acquisition > Capitalization date from master record (if in
   same FY, otherwise posting date)
- Settlement of AuC > Posting date
Set 'Prime Rule' and 'Alt.Rule' for each transaction (in your case it is
for transaction 'Settlement of AuC')

Asset acquisition date (How to change?)

Hi all,
As per http://www.jt77.com/financials/finan-15236.html
Asset capitalization date = 1day of depreciation calculation
Asset acquisition date = day of first cost allocation to the asset
Asset value date = date of effect in asset account of a posting
From the above dates, I would like to have a try to give my understanding on them.
Let say I have acquire an asset through a PO -> GR -> IR on 15 Oct 2007.
If I set the Cap Date as on 01 Nov 2007, and Asset Value date as on 01 Dec 2007, does this mean that ...
Question 1:
My Asset depreciation will starts on Dec, with 2 months depreciation, which is Nov and Dec (because my Asset Cap Date is on 01 Nov 2007)?
Question 2:
What if I want to change the Asset acquisition date to, say 01 Nov 2007?
I tried AB08 to reverse the asset, and change the GR posting date (through MIGO), and these date affect asset value date only.
I tried also to reverse the IR (using MR8M) and re-post the IR using Miro, with different Invoice and Posting date, these date only affect the FI documents.
I tried AS02, and I can only change Cap date, and NOT the acquisition date.
Please help on this, and clarify the usage / importance of the acquisition date.
As per AS03 (wrong first acquisition date)
Andreas Mann said that crucial is the "asset value date" (field BZDAT)it should be 31.05.2007, than first acquisition date is not important

Capitalization Date= Date on which the asset will be capitalized
Acqusition Date= Date on which first transaction is done on the asset after creation. It cannot be changed once a value is posted to the asset
Asset Value Date is important to determine the Depreciation
Asset value Date determines the postings to the asset. You can set the configuration for default asset value date. It is the date with which user wants to post to the asset, i.e it can be Document Date, Posting Date, Capitalization Date, Goods Receipt date. Check the list in
Asset Accounting> Transactions> Specify How Default Asset Value Date is Determined
Ordinary Depreciation Start Date Date on which the system starts calculates and posts depreciation
Ordinary Depreciation Start Date can be determined by the system through Priod controls defined or entered manually by the user. If entered manually it surpass the system calculated date.

Different Asset Value Dates for each Asset

Hi,
A very interesting and unique requirement.
We are attaching multiple assets in the settlement rule of wbs elements and run CJ88, but as per standard SAP, all assets under each WBS Element are capitalized on the same Asset Value Date.
My client wants to capitalize assets at different asset value dates for each of these assets without needing to run CJ88 multiple times.In CJ88, however, we have only one asset Vale date option.
Is this possible to have different asset value dates asset wise when we run CJ88 ? I did not find any option to define an asset value date in CJIC either.In Settlement rule neither.
Thanks for any help.
Regards,
Manis

Try and explore the option of using Asset Value date on the sender WBS, you can find this under settlement parameters.
This option depends on your project (WBS) strcture and the number of assets being capitalised on back on one WBS element.
Refer note OSS 98496 for more information

About settlement, asset master data's amount column value

Dear Experts,
I build an aseet master data : A (the amount column's value is 0 in asset master data)
Then, I build an asset purchase order assign to A , after I do GR, A's amount column's value change to 1.
But if as follows,
I build two asset master data : B and C ,
B's asset catalog is 167200(prepay for equipment) , c's asset catalog is 153100 (normal fixed asset)
Then , I build an asset purchase order assign to B, then do GR , B has amount 1, and then ,
I do t-code: AIAB , settlement B to C , I found B's amount column's value still show 1 , and C is still 0 ,
but the asset value certainly has transfer from B to C......
why B's amount column's value doesn't be changed?
I can't figured out.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Best Regards,
Yacoa
Edited by: Yacoa Chen on Mar 15, 2011 9:14 AM

Hi
If B is still showing value - It means values are not settled
After AIAB - You need to run AIBU to settle the values.. Did you run AIBU??
