Asset Disposal Date

Dear Friends,
We have one isssue related to dispose asset as follow:
The asset is actually disposed on 29 oct 2010. However the accountant
only received documens (FA02) upto 15 dec 2010.
Hence we consider which date we should enter in SAP to dispose asset:
1- Document date: ?
2- Posting date:  ?
3 - Asset value date: ?
Firstly, we intended to choose Asset value date is: 29 Oct 2010 => But I
concern whether the booking entry will impact the Financial statement in
Oct and Nov 2010 (which we already run depreciation)?
Please provide some solution folks.
Regards,
Naveen.

Posting date should be December
Asset value date should be October
The system will "catch-up" depreciation when you run it in December.
Document date typically means invoice date - use whatever is on the invoice.

  • System does not reset asset retirement date for Depreciation Area specific transaction after area has been deleted

    Good day,
    I needed to create a new depreciation area in a live system. The depreciation area would not post to the GL, but would be used for tax purposes in a currency other than the local currency. When creating this area the asset values were translated at the system exchange rate which did not agree with the values of the manually maintained tax register. I proceeded by creating new transaction types that would only post to the new area, one of which was an asset disposal transaction, which would be used for downward adjustment of the APC value. I made my adjustments at the end of the previous financial year, but had to start over and proceeded to delete the depreciation area to allow me to start over.
    After reinstating the depreciation area, my original adjustments were removed, however the assets which APC values needed to be adjusted downward using the disposal transaction, was giving me the AA 478 Posting transaction is not possible (value date not allowed) error.
    I've reviewed the asset postings and there is no record of my original adjustment documents. The problem seems to be that field ANLA-ABGDT (Last Retirement Date), is still indicating the date of my previous adjustments and that this was not updated when the Depreciation Area was deleted and reinstated.
    Again, I do not have any documents which I can access or reverse to update this table. Is there any way to clear this field without reversing the disposal document?
    I'm also looking at implementing SAP note 1618286, to make error message AA478 a warning. I could not implement SAP note 533378 since it only supports component version 46c and we are currently running component verson 605.
    I would appreciate your consideration of my problem.
    Regards
    Marius

    If you are in Test System, you can use function module AA_AFABER_DELETE to totally delete the depreciation area (tcode SE37, specify chart of depreciation and depreciation area), After that recreate your depreciation area and run AFBN. But before you do that, have you created a retirement transaction type that limits the posting on your new depreciation area? If not create one.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks!

  • 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.

    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??

  • Modify fixed asset master data thru migo

    Hi experts,
    I make PO with account assigment 'fixed asset'. This asset is created during the PO creation. When materials arrive more fields of that fixed asset master data are known (ie serial number). I'd like to have a way to save those data in asset during the GR without using 2 different transactions.
    In MIGO t/c i see the fixed asset number and double clicking on it i access to display asset: master data (as i was on AS03 tc).
    Do you think a way to call AS02 (change asset master data) thru MIGO exists?
    Best regards,
    Ruben

    Hi Ruben,
    Did you find a solution to your problem? I have a similar requirement.
    I was planning on using the user-exit MBCF0005 to call a pop-up screen where the user can input the serial number and from there calling the BAPI to update the asset.
    Cheers

  • Custom Field in Asset Master Data

    Dear Experts,
    I want to ask about a problem I'm having when adding a new field in Asset Master Data ( AS01 & AS02 ).
    I'm adding new field on the Time-dependent Tab. I already create the exit & the new custom field, and with the help of the functional registered the new field.
    I'm using a new installed SAP GUI 7.3 .
    The problem is that the new field doesn't appear when I access the tcode unless I click on the new field location.
    The problem seem doesn't appear in SAP GUI 7.1 & 7.2.
    Is there any setting that need to be done or this is the problem with the SAP GUI 7.3
    Thank you.

    Hi Karim
    You can go through the steps below to customize the field u2018Planned. retirement onu2019
    1, AS02 -> Menu: Environment -> screen layout -> Master data -> select layout and double click on Logic field group -> Select Logic field group 2 u2018Posting informationu2019 and double click on field group rules -> Change field group 13 to u2018Suppressed entry fieldu2019.
    Alternatively
    2, Use AO21 to customize the field as above.
    Note: field u2018Planned. retirement onu2019 in asset master is connected to the function u2018Simulate up to planned retirement dateu2019 in asset reports. After field u2018Planned. retirement onu2019 of asset master data is deactivated, the function u2018Simulate up to planned retirement dateu2019 in asset report will be disabled.

  • Asset value date in case of multiple GRs

    Hello All,
    Could you please advise on the below issue.
    I have created PO with one line item for quantity of 5 for acquiring 5 Fixed assets. Created 5 GRs with different dates as mentioned below
    S.No. GR posting date Asset No.
    1 18.08.2009 190698
    2 28.08.2009 190699
    3 10.08.2009 190700
    4 06.08.2009 190701
    5 03.08.2009 190702
    In 1st asset capitalization taking 18.08.2009 which is Ok, for 2nd Asset also capitalization date taking as 18.08.2009 ( i.e. 1st GR date), for 3rd Asset capitalization date taking as 10.08.2009, for 4th Asset capitalization date taking as 06.08.2009 & for 5th Asset capitalization date taking as 03.08.2009. That means capitalization date it is taking as Oldest GR date. But essentially capitalization should pick from GR posting date (i.e.for 2nd asset it should take capilization date as 28.08.2009 instead of 18.08.2009).
    Could anybody has clue why system is picking 1st GRN date when I have posted 2nd Asset.
    Thanks a lot for your help in advance.

  • What is the purpose of Clearing and Revenue account in Asset Disposal : F-92?

    Hi All,
    Please clarify my doubt ;
    In Asset Disposal - Sale to Customer : F-92 with customer
    Suppose an asset with historical cost $1000 and accumulated depreciation of $100 is being sold to a customer at $1100, the posting entries will be as follows :
    Dr     Customer Account (A/R)                    1,100
    Dr     Accumulated Depreciation                    100
    Cr     Fixed Asset - Acquisition Cost           1,000-
    Cr     Gain/Loss of Fixed Asset Disposal       200-
    Dr     Clearing Account for Asset Disposal   1,100
    Cr     Revenue for Asset Disposal                1,100-
    I completely understand the first four line items, but don't know the purpose or the 5th and 6th line items.
    Please explain why we need a clearing and revenue account for asset disposal and what would be the impact of these accounts in asset accounting?
    Thanks in advance !!!
    Regards,
    Vicki

    Hi Vicki
    This is just a technical account, which gets Dr and Cr in the same document
    The purpose is just to tell you how much asset sale has happened during the year.. You can get this info by looking at the GL Account
    Since Asset Module is a sub ledger, the asset needs to be retired. At the same time, the FI-GL also should show the needed info from accounting perspective
    While the required GL entry is completed with the 1st 4 line items, the 5th and 6th are just the statistical ones

  • How to add new fields in asset master data

    Hello,
    i was wonder if anyone knows how to add new fields that arent defined in the asset master data.
    Thanks.
    Pedro

    Hi Pedro,
    SAP allows entering upto 8 fields on the asset master. These fields are called 'Evaluation group'. Out of 8, 4 are four character long and others are 8 character long.
    You can configure them @ the following 3 nodes in IMG:
    Financial Accounting>Asset Accounting>Master Data-->User Fields: Define 4-Character Evaluation Groups & Define 8-Character Evaluation Groups & Change Key Words in the Evaluation Groups.
