Asset Configuration Management

HI,
Could anybody please help me with what is "Asset Configuration Management" in SAP.
Any information on the same ould be appreciated.
Thanks,
Abhishek

Hi,
Its purpose is to reduce the implementation effort and to meet the concrete requirements of your enterprise in the best possible manner. The Asset Management building block can be integrated into existing system landscapes, and can also be used when setting up new systems.
Asset Management is a subledger accounting for general ledger accounting, and is used to manage and document in detail the activities in the fixed assets. The FI-AA system allows you to update the depreciation and the changes to the asset balance sheet value of Asset Management in the general ledger accounting of the SAP ECC System. Different additional cost accounting account assignments can also be made for these activities.
Below functions are peformed in this.
Maintenance of master data for inspection plans, for example, the creation of catalogs and selected sets
General Quality Management Customizing for PP-PI, MM and SD
Customizing for SD including inspection type 06 for returns without a task list, and only with defect recording. The SD Customizing also contains settings for the notification type complaints
Main activities
Master data
Asset transactions
Direct capitalization
Periodic processing
The processing of tangible assets allows the development of fixed assets to be represented and documented for accounting purposes.
Depreciation can be transferred directly to FI Financial Accounting and to cost center accounting.
Please refer below documentation- Asset management and configuration management.

Please tell me the group assets configuration

my client wants , add the assets to groups assets, and how many assets are there for a particular group, but i am unable to search that . i dont know group assets concept. please tell me the configuration.

Hi anji,
the system calculates depreciation at the level of individual assets. Certain types of calculation needs or tax requirements (such as in the U.S.A.) make it necessary, however, to calculate depreciation at a higher level. For this purpose, you can group assets in the FI-AA system together into so-called group assets. You can group assets together per depreciation area to form group assets.
It is basically possible to use all asset classes for creating group assets. you need to set aside particular asset classes for use in conjunction with group assets. These asset classes are then reserved solely for group assets, and are not allowed to be used for normal assets.
A group asset is represented in the system by a separate master record.

Required G?L accounts for Low Value Assets configuration

Hi Experts,
Please suggest me, what are the required G/L accounts for FI-AA integration i.e OAOA for Low Value assets.
Waiting for the reply.
Regards,
Vani.

Hi Vani,
You need to assign separate GL accounts for LVA if you intend to create them as a separate class with different account determination,screen layout etc.
Otherwise the same GL accounts that have been assigned to the regular Asset classes, can be used for the flow of data relating to APC value of LVA and the depreciaiton.
Hope I have given the required info.

Phani

EAM Asset Number Open Interface - Technical Reference docs required

Hello,
I'm developing a migration of EAM assets.
I have no issue by filling the interface tables MTL_EAM_ASSET_NUM_INTERFACE and MTL_EAM_ATTR_VAL_INTERFACE and then running the "Import Asset Number" standard functionallity.
But, I need to work with genealogy information. The table MTL_OBJECT_GENEALOGY_INTERFACE is used to relate parent and child assets .. but when I run "Import Asset Number" nothing happens .. I mean, if I query the asset in the application, I can see it without the parent asset association.
Now, I'm trying to use the API's for EAM, but until now without success ...
I saw that there exist a "Technical Reference" document for EAM .. but I can't find it ...
Do you know from where I can download it ? ...
or, if the mentioned document does not exist anymore
Do you know where I can find documents about eAM Open Interface, more detailed than the information of the "Implementation Guide" ?
Thanks in advance,
Sergio Maestri

Did the original poster ever find a resolution to this issue? I'm seeing the same behavior. I examined all of the documentation listed in the post already (though I can't find doc 256410.1).
In my example, my child asset is a rebuildable asset, but that won't always be the case. Even though I see that the Import Asset Genealogy request has run successfully, my record doesn't change. I should get an error as I'm deliberately trying to create a new parent-child relationship with a child that currently has a parent. This gives me an error message in the Maintenance Super User -> Asset -> Configuration History page.
Here's what I did to create the import record:
insert into MTL_OBJECT_GENEALOGY_INTERFACE
(INTERFACE_HEADER_ID, LAST_UPDATE_DATE, LAST_UPDATED_BY, CREATION_DATE, CREATED_BY, BATCH_ID, GROUP_ID, OBJECT_TYPE, PARENT_OBJECT_TYPE, GENEALOGY_ORIGIN, GENEALOGY_TYPE, PROCESS_STATUS, IMPORT_MODE,
ORGANIZATION_CODE, INVENTORY_ITEM_ID, SERIAL_NUMBER, PARENT_ORGANIZATION_CODE, PARENT_INVENTORY_ITEM_ID, PARENT_SERIAL_NUMBER, START_DATE_ACTIVE) VALUES
(MTL_OBJECT_GEN_INTERFACE_S.NEXTVAL, sysdate, 1068, sysdate, 1068, 100, 100, 2, 2, 3, 5, 'P', 0,
'EM1', 8319, 'Battery1000', 'EM1', 7885, 'FL1020', sysdate);
The only way I could get this to work was to set the MTL_OBJECT_GENEALOGY_INTERFACE.PROCESS_STATUS = 'R' and then call EAM_GENEALOGY_IMPORT_PUB.import_genealogy via PL/SQL. If I did that, I didn't get an error back from the PL/SQL call, but I did get a decent message in the ERROR_MESSAGE field of the interface table: "Child Battery1000 already has a parent FL1030 from 15-DEC-2006 10:43:50; the open period from 16-AUG-2013 15:55:52 overlaps with it."
The Parameters dialog for the Import Asset Genealogy request only works if PROCESS_STATUS = 'P' and the EAM API only works if PROCESS_STATUS = 'R'.
Is it me or does this seem poorly thought out or at the very least poorly documented?

Asset A/c'g- group assets

Pls explain me the **only Group Asset Configuration - GL A/c's - Asset Creation- ** steps and also the fields what we have to give in the steps. I will assign points to U. Need each & every step & field.pls watch the following and give me.Pls dont give the links.
1.Copy Ref CODor Dep Area.
2. Delete other than Book Depn & Spl Tax dep.
3. Asset Class( A/c det,screen layouts,no range).
4. What GL a/cs should create?
5.Assgning the GL a/c's which fields we have to give.
6.Determine Dep area in Asset class - which check box I have to select.
7.----
8.----
9.----
10.----
11.----
12. AS21- which fields i have to give.
13. wher I have to link the Normal Asset to the group Asset ?
14.----
15.----
Thanks in advance.
Rajan.

follow these steps,
1. copy chart of dep: t.code : fc08
2. delete depriciatin areas
3. assign to company code; oaob
4.specify account determination, create screen layout rules
5.define number ranges; as08
6.define asset class ; oaoa
here you have to give no ranges, account determination for all asset classes.
7. determinine depriciation areas in asset classess; oayz
now you have one idea about your asset configuration. now before further, create your gl accounts for each asset depriciation, gl for asset loss, gl for asset profit on sales.
8. now you have to assign accounts for postings; a090
goto each account determinatin and assgin relavent gl accounts in all cloums
9. specify document type for posting depriciation
10. specify rounding figures of net asst book value/depriciation; oayo
11. define screen layouit for asset master data, depriciation areas, define base methods, multilevel methods etc.,
12.you have to maintain period control methods for dep run and maintain depriciation keys
13. now you should have one asset, so create one asset maser record; t.code as01, post the purchase transation by f-90
14. now you have to run the depriciation by t.code AFAB
GOTHROUGH AL THESE SETTINGS
before that decide abut your asset classes, create gl a/cs and then start from the first step,
regards,

Asset Transfer Related Question

We are uploading some assets from a SAP system to another under a new company code. The old company will sell the assets off to new company for cash payment at the Net Book Value so the assets in the new company will be uploaded as new assets.
Can anyone please tell what asset related information i.e. APC, Acquisition Date, Cap Date, Ordinary Depreciation and Net Book Value etc needed to be uploaded to the new system for the depreciation to work correctly?

Again this is largely dependant on your system settings in terms of depreciation etc.
In general however, if you wish to keep the depreciation similar to what was being planned in the old company code then you would have to change the UL in the new company code to the remaining UL of the old company code (asset master).
For example in the new company code if your asset class has UL configured as 5 Years then the APC value (which is the NBV of the old company), will be recalculated to be depreciated over 5 years. If the remaining UL in the old company was 3 years and you enter this in the new asset (i.e. ignore what the config setup is) then the asset will be depreciated over 3 years and hopefully, based on your system settings for depreciation, the depreciation would be the same as if the asset was depreciating in the old company.
You can test this using AS91, where you can input the values as well as UL etc, to check in AW01N the system calculations.
Again all of this is dependant on your Asset configuration in your system. (i.e. the depreciation keys etc are the same as for the old company code.

EAM Change parent of an asset

How can I change the parent of an asset number defined in oracle EAM. Facing problem in editing/ deleting asset number in oracle EAM

Asset Parent can be maintained from Asset Configuration History on the Maintenance Web Home (Self-Service) side of EAM.
To remove a parent relationtionship:
1. Go to the Assets tab of Maintenance Web Home page.
2. Navigate to the asset to be changed. S
3. Click the radio button for the asset in the search list, select "Configuration History" in the View drop-down then click Go.
4. Click the Show Parents radio button then click Go.
5. Find the active parent (null end-date) in the parent history list then click the update icon (pencil) on that row
6. Enter the end-date for the Parent relationship then click Apply.
Once removed, you can assign a new parent. I suppose Oracle may end-date the current parent for you if you associate a new parent to it but I haven't tested this theory.
