Advantage/ disadvantage Asset sub number & asset super number

Hello,
I do not really understand what are the advantages from the asset sub number compare to the asset super number.
The only point for me is that a sub-number asset can inherit some informations from the principal asset.
For me there is no difference for example for the depreciation.
Can someone help me?
Thank you very much
Cécile

Hi Cécile,
The purpose of the Asset Super number is to group together assets that are not necessarily related to each other the same way as sub assets are normally related to its parent asset. As an example if you have power grid with several distribution centers and even plants you would not define that as sub assets to a parent asset called power grid. However you might want to be able to look at them together and that is when you would create a super asset called power grid 1 and classify all the assets belonging to the grid as such's.
Hope this clarifies this a bit better.
cheers,

Automatic creation of asset sub number in order

Hi Guruz,
i have an urgent issue regarding asset topic and sub number.
my issue is my client purchased 100 computer sets. Each computer set has an unique asset number. now we are using multiple account assignment concept. Earlier my client use to purchase 100 computers by including 100 line items in the purchase order in item overview each having an asset number(that belongs to a particular asset class which is in turn assigned to one G/L account). So we can see that it is a very lengthy job. Instead my client wants that they should enter only one line item containing the asset number in the item overview of the PO.
At present we are using multiple account assignment as we are creating the asset sub number under one main asset.
With this we are able to prevent entering 100 line items in the item overview but we are entering the 100 sub number data in item details of the PO.
item overview look out:
Ex: asset no: 100268           quantity -100       price- 20000
item detail look out:
quantity           asset         sub number
1                       100268          1
1                      100268            2.....
similarly upto 100......
THis is done in account assignment tab of PO.
REQUIREMENT:
when i am giving asset number 100268 sysytem should automatically give/propose 100 sub number as we have defined 100 sub number in as11 for that asset number. I.e: when we are putting asset number 100268 in the item overview it should reflect 100 quantities in item detail.
is it possible???
pl discuss...
in the sub item field the asset number 100268 will automatically divide into 100 sub numbers automatically.

Hi,
This is unfortunately not possible with standards but you may try using Badi ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST => PROCESS_ACCOUNT.

Assign the Asset "Tag Number" at PO receipt stage

Our customer has a requirement to enter the Asset Tag Number for an item when the purchase order is receipted (or even at inspection stage for 4-way match PO's). The tag number entered, should then flow through to the FA module.
Does anyone know if this can be achieved with standard functionality, or if it can be done with a customization?
Here is the basic flow steps, the words in brackets () are the change we're looking for.
1. Create PO for item coded to asset clearing account
2. Receipt PO (and assign the Asset Tag Number)
3. Match the PO to the AP invoice.
4. Validate and account the AP invoice and transfer that to GL.
5. Run the Mass Additions Create Process
6. Find the Asset in Mass Additions Create (the Tag Number field should be populated with the value entered in step 2)
7. Post Asset

Asset Sub Number Conversion

Hi Expert,
I have a question here and hope experts can give some Light.
We have asset main number with asset number sub number in the legacy system. When we migrate to SAP, I'll also need to create the Asset Main Number (AS91) and following with Asset Sub Number for it (AS94).
The problem is, how could I actually link the asset sub number with the relevant main number for data conversion as the main asset must always be created first before I can load asset sub-number.
What is the best approach to use?
Please help. Thanks.

Hello Louis Yale
You first create the main Asset number with T-code AS91
Once that is done you then create Asset sub number with reference to main Asset number . T-code AS94.
When you start creating Asset sub number on the main screen you will need to input main asset number and company code. This links your asset sub number to main asset number.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

Asset Sub Number with Letter

Dear Expert
Is it possible to define asset sub number using letter? e.g 1000000001 A001
Thanks and Regards,
YL

Hi YL,
The sub number field is four numeric character field. Hence you cannot use alphabets.
However in Tcode OAOA (Asset class), if you tick the checkbox "EXTERNAL SUB NUMBER", you can use your own sub number for the asset.
Please let me know if it helps.

Asset sub number assigned to different G/L account

Dear Guruz,
i have an issue where i am maintaing asset. Ex: computer sets. Now each computer is an asset having unique asset number. So when i am making a PO for having 100 computer sets we have to enter 100 times different asset number. Instead we are using asset sub number. Ex: Asset no would be 100217. The sub number will be 1, 2, 3, 4.... upto 100. Now concept of multiple account assignment is also coming. through asset class we are able to map the G/L accounts automatically. But if i use the sub number concept in this case the G/L account will be same for all of them.
Is there any ways to provide different g/L account to the sub number of the asset??
As far as my knowledge is concerned it is not possible as the class is same for all the asset sub group also but i am not experienced enough to confirm it.

Hi
As you have maintained Account assignement category Q that is for Projects - WBS elements, so any difference is being posted to that WBS element only.
If you donot want to post to a WBS element , then you need to creataea substitution ule in FI so that these get posted into a Costs center.
Please get in touch with your FI consultant & an ABAPEr to include the Substitution logic

AA-Asset ID Number from Asset Under Construction to Final Asset

Hi Expert,
In our organization we use Asset Under Construction by creating individual asset and later we released to final asset. The system work fine in accounting wise but in practical scenario we are facing issue to track physical asset number.
Example: 1 Asset Under Construction #10001, later create final asset in class computer "SERVER IBM # 50001"
When this server was purchased IT departed put the asset number as 10001 on physical asset. later this asset was re-classified to proper asset class which now has asset number #50001
In this scenario IT department facing issue to perform physical inventory.
Can some one share experience on how to handle this scenario from SAP/Conceptual process wise?

Hi,
Your requirement is so common to the consultents like me, I do advice to the client as follows:
1st Step: Creating AUC Asset the number from 1series would be the temporary number, can be used till settlement to main asset.
2nd Step: Fixed asset number 5series would be the parmenent number.
Note: 1 series all the numbers should be settleed to the main asset and the temporary number should be replaced / noted with parmenent number.
I guess it would work to you.

Changing Asset Serial Numbe

How can i change the asset serial number? I can't deactivate this asset and recreate it.

You need to create a sort version consisting of the field in which you have maintained the asset number.
The fields in table ANLAV can be used in creation of Sort version.
Use this newly created Sort Version in Reports.

Define asset sub number

Dear Expert,
Is there a way to determine asset sub-number by using external numbering ?
e.g. I want to set asset sub-number that I want to use is '99'
Kindly need your help.
Thanks and Regards,
YL

Hi:
No it is not possible to do so. Number range for sub assets depends on main asset ,if main asset is given an external number range in AS08,still then sub asset will be created with reference to the main asset number. Hence you can meet your purpose only by defining a number internal or external in AS08 which starts with 99 , now your sub assets will be created with 99-1 number range.

Use Asset Sub-Number

All,
In our systems we don't use Asset sub-number. Now one of the division is planning to utilize this feature. Is there any specific configuration changes or checks we need to do to ensure that sub number can be used. Currently it defaults to 0.
Thanks!
Regard,
N
PS: All answers will be duly rewarded.

Hi,
Subnumber will default to zero'0' while using transaction AS01 in order to create the main Fixed Asset, however in order to create subsequent fixed assets with subnumber you should use transaction AS11, then the system will create the FA with the same main number and the next available subnumber, 1, 2 , 3 and so on
Hope this helps.
