Asset  - Restating tax books for 2006

Hello Asset Mavens!
Do you know how to restate the tax books (they don't post to general ledger) for a prior year (2006) due to an acquisition. 
This is for tax returns related to a company that was spun off:
Assets acquired in Jan or Feb 2006 have a 'stub' period for those 2 months and a second 'stub' period for the months of March-Dec.  Assets acquired March-Dec have a different calculation as well, which I can show if that's helpful.
We are on 4.6C.  
Your help would be greatly appreciated!

I had never changed a depreciation key and recalculated, so I tested that and found it very helpful.
Further clarification requested:  the assets acquired in in the first two months in 2006 need to have two depreciation methods in 2006:  one for the first two months, based on a 'year' of 2 months, and a second method requiring depreciation based on a 10 month year. 
How is that done?  Do I develop a single key that incorporates both changes - and I'm not sure that is possible.  Is manual depreciation an option?
Thank you!

  • Copying assets in Tax book which didnt exist in the corp book last year?

    Hi All,
    We are facing following issue with our Fixed Assets Tax reporting. If someone can point us in right direction, we would really appreciate that
    1)     We are currently running on Oracle 11.5.10
    2)     Right now (as of JUN-11), we have 1 consolidated corp book in the system with around 14000 assets in it and no tax books
    3)     Tax reporting is done from a third party software. Right now we have filed for taxes till 2009. 2010 tax filing is still pending
    4)     We want to file 2010 taxes by August and we want to do it through Oracle. We are planning to configure tax book in the system so that taxes can be filed
    5)     The approach would be to create a Tax book with open period as of 2009. Run the Initial Mass copy from corp book to tax book. This would copy everything from corp book to tax book as of Dec-2009. Then depreciate the tax books all through 2010 and run periodic mass copy for every month and we will get the DEC-2010 figure
    6)     But there is a catch here. As I said that we have all our assets in just one corp book. But that wasn’t the case before Jan-2011. We had around 20 corp books for every legal entity. So all the assets that we have today were lying around in various corp books. We did the consolidation of the assets into one book this January-2011 because all our legal entities were consolidated.
    7)     Now given this scenario, if we run the Initial Mass copy as described in point 5 to the tax book only those assets from the corp book will be copied to the tax book which existed in this corp book as of DEC-2009. (This is the standard Oracle functionality). This is not the complete list as only few assets were there in this book as of Dec-2009. Rest of them were in different books
    8)     Do we have to create tax books for all the corporate books to achieve what we want to achieve or is there a way that multiple corp book data can be copied to one tax book?
    Please let me know your thoughts
    Regards,
    Rahul

    I will re - ask the question in just one line. Please reply if you know the answer:
    Is it possible in Oracle to Initial mass copy asset data from corp book to tax book in the last fiscal year when the assets did not exist in the corp book as of last fiscal year? Assets were brought to that corp book only this year as part of consolidation
    Thanks

  • Fixed Assets - Tax Book Depreciation Reset

    Hello Fixed Assets Experts,
    My company recently reorganized our parent company, and now has the following scenario:
    Due to legal changes, we need to start over the useful life on our tax books (10 and 11) and restart the calculation of depreciation based on the net book value of the asset on 1/1/2008.  Book 01 needs to continue as normal.  We would like to use the current asset numbers and not transfer anything to new numbers.  These are all of our FFE assets, so there are multiple depreciation keys and useful lives (i.e. computer equipment, property, etc).  I have tried making custom depreciation keys and changing the useful lives to get the desired result, but can't seem to find a way to do it.
    Here is an example:
    Asset 1 (software), was capitalized on 06/30/2006 with a useful life of 3 years and has been depreciating since.  It is scheduled for end of life in 2009.  The net book value of the asset on 1/1/08 is 1219.97.  I need to depreciate the 1219.97 over 3 years starting on 1/1/08.
    Is this possible?  We have not run our December 08 depreciation, but I am running out of options.
    Thanks in advance!

    Do you working on ECC 6 and activate the option EA-FIN. In that case it is possible to use time intervale in the tab Depr Areas (click 2 times on the line). This should solve your problem.

  • Differing asset tax book and accounting book when the currency is foreign

    Hi Asset Gurus,
    My company has this requirement that when the asset is acquired in foreign currency there will be acquisition posting on Accounting Book (area 01) but zero on the Tax Book (area 15).  They said this is in conformance with the reporting standard.  Can anyone give me an idea how can this be done in the asset accounting?  Do I need to setup new depreciation area just for this requirement?
    Thanks,
    Aloy

    Thanks AP for your reply.  Please bear with me a little bit as I still don't see the complete picture.  Currently this is what's happening:
    When the acquisition is made in foreign currency, both depreciation area 01 (accounting book) and area 15 (tax book) gets updated with local currency value (APC).  Now the requirement is to make tax book area not posted to everytime this situation happens.  We don't really need to have the foreign currency amount reflected in the asset.
    Given the requirement description above, do you still think parallel currency in FI and additional depreciation area would be the solution?  If yes, could you kindly expound further on that solutions please?
    Thanks a lot for your help.

  • Assign assets to multiple Tax books and Depreciation rates

    How do we assign an asset to multiple tax books at a time when Populating Oracle Assets with asset information obtained from a legacy system ? Customer has given different depreciation values to the different tax books.

    Hi,
    you can use initial Mass copy and periodic mass copy once you have data in your coporate book.

  • Superhero Asset Accounting Tax Question

    My future best friend/s-
    Background:
    I work for an energy company specifically natural gas. We have assets (pipelines, metersu2026etc) that are placed in service (put in the ground) and maintained in a excel spreadsheet. After they go through an internal approval process (which causes a huge backlog for input) they are entered into SAP (or the asset is created). My problem is some assets are installed one year (amounts are maintained in the offline excel spreadsheet) and entered into SAP in another year after the previous year is closed. Our SAP isnu2019t catching the tax books depreciation amounts correctly.
    Example:
    Asset entered in 2008 (pipe put in ground and tracked in excel)----->Asset entered/created in SAP 2010 (after 2008 and 2009 is closed).
    Possible solutions I am looking for:
    1.     Can I make the tax books have a different fiscal period or none at all?
    2.     Is there something I can do with the depreciation keys, useful life, period control or anything that will help with me?
    3.     I know about the write-up functionality, however, the tax accountants (funny I never knew how difficult accountants could beu2026especially since I use to be one) will only use it as a last resort.
    4.     Is there any books or web-videos that can teach me this type of stuff in SAP that donu2019t read like stereo instructions (I guess this is a general question).
    If you can solve this problem you will be a superhero in my book. Please let me know if you need more info (BTW this is my first blog ever).
    Thanks,
    Jack

    Hi Jack,
    What has been said above is right. In AS01 all you do is use the 'post-capitalization' indicator at the start, then you see in the 'General' tab that the 'Capitalization on' field is (in my system at least) a required field. Here for example I enter 01.01.2008. Once hitting enter, following fields are filled automatically and remain greyed out:
    First acquisition on 01.01.2008
    Acquisition year     2008 001
    In tab 'Depreciation areas' in AS01 field ODepr.Start is also automatically filled with value 01.01.2008.
    Then comes the posting: as for the value you post, for example in the open fiscal year 2010 (e.g.01.01.2010) you can observe nicely the different system behaviour in case you post an normal external acquistion (ANZON) or indeed a post-captitalization (ABNAN). You will see that in later transaction (ABNAN) you find a value adjustment is posted in AW01N to represent the ord.depreciation calculated and so adjusted for 2008 & 2009. So, only the remaining ord.depreciation will then be planned and posted in the remaining useful life
    However, if you for example post a normal external acquisition to an asset (set up with 'post-capitalization' indicator and cap.date 01.01.2008 in AS01), you will also observe, that the FULL depreciation for the asset is now calculated and spread over the remaining useful life.
    And yes, whether or not in the first period the planned depreciation is a 'catch-up' amount or an equal 'smooth' amount depends on your setting in the company code in OAYR, just as well explained already above (indiator 'Smoothing').
    I hope this further clarifies and helps explain - best of luck!
    Kind regards,
    Brigitte

    It all depends on how much data you have? the easy way is to setup new book if you want to change in production. can setup new fiscal calendar for FA but as the existing book cannot be changed after data is loaded. one more way is to update the records with jun-08 in test instance and run depreciation

  • Asset Write Up Book Value

    Hi,
    We need to write up an asset , but the book value of the asset and not the depreciations. Looking in the ABZU it seems that all the transaction type, are connected with depreciations write-up.
    Using any transaction type, it seems that the depreciation is the only value we can write up.
    Is there any transaction with which i I can write-up on an asset (e.g.) a book value of 200 USD and then start depreciations on this value?
    Can anyone suggest me how we can achieve this.
    Thanks,
    Srikanth.

    Shrikanth
    You cannot do write-ups for assets alone.
    You will have to create a new Z report / tcode form the ABAPers for the same. Such a function dsnt exist in the standard system.

  • I have a mac book pro, 2006 with an 2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo processor, can I update to Lion? to use icloud.

    Apple keep telling me I need to update to icloud but I'm not sure if Lion will work on my Mac. I've upgraded to snow leopard which seems to have knackered my .me or .mac account (whatever it's called now), so I don't seem to have any option but to upgrade to Lion if I every want to see my emails again.
    Apple say I must have a Intel Core 2 processor for Lion to work...... at least I think that's what they say.
    I have a mac book pro, 2006 with an 2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo processor, can I update to Lion?

    Lion System Requirements
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    If you have a Core Duo model then you cannot upgrade to Lion. You can upgrade to Snow Leopard, but iCloud is not available for Snow Leopard.
    Open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. Look for the Model ID in the displayed information. If you have a MacBookPro 2,1 or later then you have a Core 2 Duo model and can upgrade to Lion.

    Hi Srinivas,
    Can you please tell me how the service tax will get calculated in rental conditions?
    I've made the following configuration settings:
    Step1: RE-Fx>> Accounting>> Automatically Generated Accounting Documents>> Summarize Documents:
    Under this node>> Set Item Summarization "Active" for the particular co. code.
    Step 2: Defined service tax under "Tax Type" for country INDIA
    Step3: Under the IMG node:
    RE-Fx>> Accounting>> Integration FI-GL, FI-AR, FI-AP>> Assign Tax Code:
    I've maintained Service Tax (tax type) to the country IN.
    Also in the contract under posting parameters tab; i've maintained the Tax Type as Service Tax.
    In conditions tab also, when I'm simulating the condition, I'm getting the correct entries, (as shown in the screen shot):
    Condition Amount: 20,0000 INR
    Net Cnd Crrncy: 20,000 INR (for the month of July)
    Tax Cnd Crrncy: 2472 INR.
    However, when I'm doing RERAPP; i'm unable to post the condition. Getting the 2 errors (screen shot attached):
    1) Tax code S2 does not exist in company code E500
    2) Taxes by item is activated; consequently, transfer by item is mandatory
    Kindly pl. assist where I'm going worng or any configuration missing due to which I'm unable to execute RERAPP for a condition (with service tax calcultaion) for a commercial lease in contract.

  • In replacing a hard drive on a Mac book circa 2006, can you put too much hard drive space in and cause overheating? I've had 2 hard drives fail after installation in the past 3 weeks.

    I recently had my Mac book circa 2006 updated to OS Lion and in the process was told I needed a new hard drive. I just replaced my original hard drive 9 months ago and was told at that time not to put too large a hard drive on my laptop or it could overheat. Now I have gone through 2 hard drives in the past 3 weeks since updating to Lion both of which were a terabyte in size. The authorized repair shop that put both failed hard drives in insists that the size of the hard drive does not cause problems in the Mac book but I am wondering why 2 failed in such a short time when the smaller hard drive lasted. It was working when I took it in for the updates but their diagnotic test showed that the first replacement HD was failing. I'm not sure what to think now.

    Can I take that cloned hard drive and just plug it into my new Mac Mini and Viola I have two computers set up perfectly
    Yes.
