Asset deprication-multiple periods

Dear experts,
How we can post Depreciation for assets through transaction AFAB for multiple periods.?
i need to post depreciation from Fiscal year 2007 to till now.
how the option "unplanned posting run" will work for this issue. is there any issue if i selected this option?
Please let me know if there is any other alternatives.
Regards
Babu.

It is not advisable to run depreciation like that. You should do it period by period.
When defining posting rules for depreciation posting, you must specify a posting cycle. Normally you must adhere to the posting cycle (for example, a monthly, quarterly or annual cycle), with the only exception being special periods.
By setting this indicator (Unplanned Posting Run), it is possible to skip over periods. The system then does not check for the connection to the previous period.

Hi....
As per your issue
1. Use shut down tick mark in the respective assets masters in AS02
2. Block respective assets masters for temporary purpose
3. And change the Depreciation keys to 0000
Once run the depreciation for October and replace all the settings.
I hope it will helps you.

Transfer Prior Year Asset to Multiple new assets

Hello friends,
We are required to breakdown one of our large Expansion Machinery Assets to multiple assets to reflect the main equipment purchased for the project.
There is a transaction in SAP (ABUMN) Transfer with-in Company Code. I think this transaction will work OK, EXCEPT for the following issue:
The Old Asset currently has a book life of 8 years. When we break this asset down, there are a few peices of equipment that we would like to depriciate at 12 years.
If we use Transaction ABUMN (Transfer) the transation will automatically move the % of depr allocation to the $ transfered based on book life of the old asset (8 years). What this will do is show the new asset (that has a book life of 12 years) as being over depriciated.
When this project is completed and the assets have been changed, I would like to show an adjustment in Depriciation Expense.
I am not sure as to which transaction ABAA or ABMA to be used to adjust the depreciation. Or is that I need to tackle this differently.
Please advise.
Regards
Umesh Gothankar

Dear Friends,
Thank you for spending time on my request. As a solution. I have used write-up in Asset Accounting to adjust the additional depreciation which was generated due to change in the useful life of Asset. I have still not done the changes in production system. Can anyone of you please confirm what I have done is correct. so that I can replicate this in our production system.

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

Transfer 1 asset to multiple assets

I'm looking for the functionality to transfer 1 asset to multiple assets in one in one transaction. In transaction code ABUMN, there is a "multiple asset" functionality but it cannot be used to transfer 1 asset to multiple assets. SAP will give an error message "You want to post a retirement to asset XXXXX. This is not possible, since a retirement was already posted to this asset in the current document." Is there another transaction code to accomplish this or SAP don't provide this functionality?
Thanks

JavaScript:Modify Data form to expose multiple periods of Supporting Detail

Good Evening,
I am currently on a project that has a requirement that users can enter Supporting Detail for multiple periods, regardless of what intersection of data you enter.
I know that one approach is to not store the Supporting Detail in Hyperion Planning and just have Excel "store" the supporting detail and load the totals via SV VBA.
Example:
Detail 1
Detail 2
Detail 3
Total Amount (gets loaded into Essbase)
However, I went down the path of exploring different approaches aside from the one mentioned above and came up with creating a process of copying the SD via stored procedure in the Planning Tables as a second approach (although I know this isn't exactly best practice) or creating custom Java Script. I have seen the examples of "Forcing SD" on Data Form using Java Script, but is is possible to expose multiple months of Supporting Detail in a customized form?
Any thoughts/inputs/best approaches would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

A quick simple example
function customCellEnterPre(row, col, cell) {
     if(row == 3 && col ==1)
          doSupportingDetail();
     return true;
Cheers

Does the NI-CAN 2.5 Channel API support multiple periodic tasks?

I have different channels that need to be output at seven different periods. Can I create multiple periodic tasks with different periods or am I going to have to either use software timing or the Frame API?

Hi,
yes you can initialize multiple task with different sample rates, but you have to initialize all sequentialy and then to start thee tasks sequentialy.
Attached you can find an example for LabVIEW which shows how to do it.

How can I load a data in multiple period with a rule files?

Hi!
I need to create a rule file the permit me to load a record with multiple period.
How can I do it?
Thanks in advance.
Bye

As Glenn said, these two types are the typical input files.
two ways that I can easily think of, but there are more.
1. Have a row memberwith the period so for sample basic, the row would look lik
cola,ny,actual,sales,Jan,100
First case in the rule file you have to map all the member fileds with the dimension name and the data column with the data field.
2. Have the data for each month as as the column members
Here is the header followed by a data sample(again for sample basic)
Product,Market,Scenario,Measure,Jan,Feb,Mar,Apr,May,Jun,Jul,Aug,Sep,Oct,Nov,Dec
1oo-10,NY,Actual,Sales,100,100,100,100,100,100,100,010,122,111,222,333
Second case in the rule file you have to map all the member fileds with the corresponding dimension name and the multiple data columns with the corresponding member names for that dimension.

Query for fa asset deprication

HI 2 ALL
Anybody have query which calculate asset reserve deprication in specific period.
regards,
zulqarnain

Hi zulqarnain,
from all of your recent queries, i understand that you are not aware of the table names in FA schema and also not sure as to which information is available at what table ....
You can generate an asset trace from asset module for a particular asset, the output contains all table names with column details that helps all report developers if they are designing an asset related report ...
Please perform the below steps and review the output ....
Switch Responsibility to System Administrator
Navigate to Security > Responsibility > Request
Select/Query the request group for your Fixed Asset Responsibility (Standard group name is "All Reports and Programs")
Insert new record/row in the Requests region and select the program name "Generate Asset Trace"
Save your changes ..
Switch responsibility to your Fixed Asset Responsibility
Run the concurrent program "Generate Asset Trace" with the parameter value for Asset book and Asset number
Check the output (it would generate two ..1st one will contain asset details 2nd one will have SLA/accounting details of the Asset)

Fixed Asset calculates extra period for Depreciation

Hi All,
I have imported the Fixed Asset for 2007B for the Year 2010. while checking the import, i notice that the system calculates an additional period for depreciation.
Here is my scenario :
a. Asset Cost = 15,863.12 (purchased on 31-May-2007).
b. Useful Life = 36
c. Remaining Life = 4
The above are displayed according to import file.
At the Depreciation Tab, there are 5 rows of planned depreciation calculated. Period 01 to Period 05.
How can the system calculates 5 periods when there is only 4 remaining periods for the asset?
This happens to all the assets being imported.
Please advise.
Jessie

Further information.
The Net Book value = 1762.94
with Accumulated Depreciation = 14100.18.
So the remaining 4 periods should be calculated as = 440.735 (per month for 4 months).
but it is displayed as 352.59 per month for 5 months.
The Fixed Asset is setup as Monthly Basis.
Using Straight Line Mehtod = Net Book Value / remaining life.

Distribution of Depreciation of an asset to multiple wbs elements??

Dear Members,
our requirement is as follows.
our cost centers are for 1) departments at head office level 2) Regional offices
whenever depreciation is calculated it's posted to Head office cost center and the same asset will be used for multple projects.
so here our requirement is the depreciation posted for a particular asset is to be distributed to multple WBS elements or Regional offices (cost centers) ..
please guide us to meet this requirement.
regards,
sashi kanth

Hi Sashi Kanth,
In Asset Accounting Module, you can only assign one cost center to a master data, so all the depreciation posted will be accumulated only on one asset master / cost center. Though, you can settle the multiple WBSelements to a single asset you cannot apportion the depreciation cost per WBS element.
To meet your requirement, you have to create separate Asset Master Records (AMR's) with the required Regional Office cost center, so you will get the depreciation cost regional office WBS element or cost center wise.

Purchase of Assets during the Period

Hi Experts,
Recently I am facing a typical problem.I am new in SAP.
We had purchased one asset in the month of April amounting to Rs.65,000/- dated 23.04.2009.When we run AFAB for the month of April-2009 we noticed that system is calculating depreciation on the said asset for the full month not for 8days(i.e 23.04.2009 to 30.04.2009).
Anybody, please throw some light in this case.I am open to change the customisation.
Thanks & Regards
CONSAPFI

Hi,
the depreciation is calcualted according to your period control from the depreciation key. If you use pro rata - what I assume here - then it is absolutely correct that the whole period is considered; this is what pro rata stands for.
If you need daily depreciaiton, then check the documentation, there is also a solution to that.

Markus
