Asset under construction with MM

I try to enter a service sheet by ts ML81N. The purchase order is for limits with Account Assignment Category 'A' -asset- and Item Category is 'Service'. The asset class is 'asset under construction' (line item settlement).
The problem is when I go to ts ML81N, I cannot receive the purchase order because the screen appears with all the fields with status 'no change' (only display them).
Any idea if is necessary to active anything in customizing AA in order to do this kind of process??
Thanks,
Cecilia

hi,
When Purchase order comes in display mode, click on create service entry sheet. (Shift+F1), then click service selection.

Steps for completing Asset under Construction

hi,

will somebody be kind enough to show me the futher steps involved in customization along with postings and settlement procedure....

Hi,
You can manage the asset under construction in the system in two different ways, depending on the types of functions that you need. The asset under construction can be either a normal asset record, or a master record with line item management. As a result, the transfer from the asset under construction to completed fixed assets can be handled in one of two ways:
·        Summary transfer from a normal asset master record to the receiver assets (transaction type 348/349)
·        Line item settlement of an asset under construction that has line item management
The Investment Management (IM) component is recommended for handling large-scale capital investments. Using the IM component, you can manage a capital investment in parallel: for financial accounting purposes as an asset under construction, and for controlling purposes as an internal order or project. For more information, see the documentation for the Investment Management component.
Assets under Construction Without Line Item Management
The procedure corresponds to the procedure for the transfer between two assets within the same company code (see Posting the Splitting or Moving of an Asset). Before carrying out a full transfer of an asset under construction, you have to reverse any down payments that were posted in the current fiscal year. Down payments are ignored for a partial transfer.
Special transaction types for the transfer of assets under construction allow for transfers to be displayed in the asset history sheet as acquisitions to fixed assets.
Assets under Construction with Line Item Management
In the FI-AA component, you can accumulate costs under purely technical aspects in an asset under construction. You do not need to consider the later creation of fixed assets at this point. During the construction phase, you can accumulate all acquisitions for an investment in a single asset. These acquisitions include
·        External activity (acquisition from vendor)
·        Internal activity (internal order)
·        Stock material (withdrawal from warehouse)
in a single asset. When using this 'collective management' of assets under construction, it is possible to manage the individual acquisitions as open items over the course of several fiscal years. At completion, the line items must be cleared and then distributed to the various receivers. The system activates open item management when an asset under construction is created, if you set the corresponding indicator in the asset class. In addition, you have to assign a settlement profile to the company codes involved, in Customizing for Asset Accounting, in order for the line item settlement to work (see Define Settlement Profile in the Implementation Guide). The main function of the settlement profile is to specify the allowed receivers (such as, assets or cost centers).
Hope this helps you. Let me know if you need any other information.

Asset Under Construction Issue

Hi,
I am facing problems while settling of Auc.
I created one asset with asset class of AuC. In Auc master i have given the Capex order type's internal order. After i posted few entries for Order. while entering of fi entries to order i didn't selected any asset number just i posted the fi entries with 40 and 50 posting key.
After i settled the order in KO88. It was settled.
After i run AIBU t code then system is saying no line items existed for order.
Without line items how can i settle the order.
Please explain me from start to end of Auc Settlement Process and Converting to asset of Auc. It is very very very urgent for me.
Sateesh

Hi
This works like this:
First we create Asset class for asset under construction with investment measure.
Assign GL accounts to that asset class
Create one asset master under that asset class
create secondary cost element with catagory external settlement.
create internal order type and select settlement with assets are optional.
create internal order
post entries to internal order
that particular internao order will capture the total cost for particual asset under construction.
once you finished that construction you will settle to one asset or multiple assets using external secondary cost element in assessment cycle.

Error in dep run - Asset under construction

Hi!
Could someone please help me with the following:
My customer has a large amount of assets under construction (AuC) and also other assets. None of the assets under consctruction should have a depreciation key (or depreciation key 0000) and no depreciation accounts are allocated in transaction AO93 for AuC . But my customer now has incorrectly created a few AuC (that should NOT be depreciated at all) with depreciation key LINK. What happened?
1) Test run depreciation (AFAB) for all assets in period 1 during 2010. In test run no error log was created, everything looked fine.
2) Executed depreciation in background.
3) When looking at each of the assets in transaction AW01N I can see that all assets (both real assets and AuC with depreciation key) has depreciation posted in period 1. BUT, no depreciation has been posted in general ledger on any of the asset classes!
4) I have now changed the depreciation key on all AUC in AS02 to 0000 so that no depreciation will be calculated.
5) Trying to run AFAB again for period 2 but error message says that period 1 was terminated and that period 1 should be restarted.
6) Trying to run period 1 again in AFAB with restart but error message says "Account 'Acc.dep. accnt.for ordinary depreciation' could not be found for area 01" and refering to all of the incorrect AuC that I have corrected (to no depreciation key)
Please how can I go on? I want to reverse the depreciation in period 1 since I didn't get any posting i the general ledger. And then I want to make a new depreciation run only with correct assets (only depreciation on real assets, not on AuC).
Please help!
I am very thankful for any help!
Many many thanks in advance!
with regards,
Prabhakar

Hi,
I had the similar situation couple of months back. I followed below mentioned process and it worked out well.
1) Maintain GL account for depreciation in AO90
2) restart depreciation run for the relevant period
3) change the depreciation key to 0000
4) repeat depreciation run for the same period (It will post a reverse entry in the same month itself. So the net impact of depreciation in the same month is zero).
By the way I have a suggestion to prevent this issue in future.
You may not be able to detect this issue on test run if you execute on foreground mode because the test run execution is restricted to 1000 assets. If the error is on 1001th asset, you will not know.
Hence, always execute depreciation test run on background mode, check for any errors and execute production run only if there are no errors.
Hope this helps....

New Depreciation Area in Asset Master Data, for assets under construction.

Hi,
The issue is relating to New Depreciation area. We have created new Depreciation area as 80=IFRS. We had followed three steps
1. Create Depreciation area via OADB.
2. Activate Depreciation area via OAYZ.
3. Automatic opening of new depreciation are via AFBN and program RAFABNEW :-
3.1 u2013 Indicator: Leave values initial = ticked. Set this indicator if you want to open the newly created depreciation area without any values i.e. blank.
In this we have find that the old assets value has been copied. But when we are doing internal order settlement through KO88 i.e. from pre-cap to AUC we are not finding new Depreciation area 80=IFRS in AUC. We had checked in AW01N.
Letu2019s assume that creating a new deprecation area is normally not required since these assets are not depreciated. But During the final settlement, the new depreciation area should also automatically supplied with values from the reference depreciation area from the AUC(assets under construction) in the completed assets. But we doesnu2019t find any values of in Dep Key = 80 IFRS for final assets.
In Assets Class of AUC we had used Investmnet Measure as Status of AUC.
Kindly provide solution for the same.
Nikhil

Check Transfer Variant 5 (under Transactions->Intercompany Asset Transfers->Automatic Intercompany Asset Transfers->Define Transfer Variants):
5     Investment measure settlement
Your Transfer Method is most likely 1 now (without transfer to dependant areas), change it to:
4     Gross method with transfer of values to dependent areas
This should help.

Settlement of an Internal Order to Asset Under Construction

We are running SAP 4.7 and Iam trying to settle an Internal order to AUC and I get the following error
You cannot use this transaction type to post to this asset
Message no. AA834
Diagnosis
The transaction type entered belongs to transaction type group 15. According to the specifications for this transaction type group, posting with transactions types belonging to this group are only allowed in specific asset classes (for example, asset classes for assets under construction).
The asset to which you are posting belongs to class 18000 (chart of depreciation SEEF). You cannot post to this class using the transaction type you have entered.
Procedure
Check the asset number entered. You may want to allow posting with this transaction type group for the asset class of the asset.
**Please take note that the costs which have come on the internal oder are through GR( Goods receipt) and not down payment. Also note that last month, the order settled without any problems!**

Hi,
thanks for your answer.
I want to do that because of some french tax rules.
These rules say that goods, hours or services produced internally for the contruction of an asset can be "delivered" to itself.
So you can register output tax based on the value produced but you have also to register input tax for the same amount.
Finally the balance for VAT amount is 0.
I was interested to know if that was possible to automize. If not, there is still the possibility to make a separate postings at month end or year end.

Asset Under Constructions - Settlement

Dear Gurus,
I am trying to do an Asset Under Construction - Settlement using T.Code AIBU, when i click on proceed, it gives me an error:
SYST: You cannot determine the period for rule 02 to 12/31/07
Message no. AA613
Diagnosis
The system could not determine depreciation periods on 12/31/07 for period control 02 of calculation key 0000.
What to do
Maintain the allocation of the periods for the period control you entered.
Proceed
If the period control you entered is a standard period control, you can set up the allocation of periods automatically.
Procecd
Could you guide me through this...
Thanks in advance for your help.
regards,
Raj

Hi,
Please check
Note 357375 - Settlement: AA613 for AuC intracompany transfer
There are two possibilities how to solve this problem:
a. Define period control 02 with Transactions OA84 or OAVH.
b. If you work with self-defined period controls, you can enter another period control instead of 02 in depreciation key 0000.

Settlement from internal order to asset under construction

HI All,
I have allocated some labors hours cost from production cost centers to real order which is created for allocating the internal cost to asset under construction.
when i allocate the labor hours by using the "KB21N" it has used the secondary cost element that is "Internal activity allocation" cost element "1200002".
i have given the source cost element "1200002" which is created as "internal activity allocation" and in settlement cost elements folder i have given receiving category is "FXA" and selected by cost element check box. i selected required entry field in settlement profile and assigned in order type.
when i do the settlement to asset under construction from internal order it is showing bellow errow.
"Settlement by cost element not possible due to secondary cost element
Message no. KD553
Diagnosis
You want to settle the secondary cost element 1200002 by cost element to an asset or G/L account, which is not allowed.
Procedure
Extend your allocation structure R3, so that secondary cost elements are not settled by cost element, but with a settlement cost element."
please let me know the problem and where i did mistake. give me the solution
thanks in advance
Mr.Rao

HI,
in your allocation structure R3 you entered in the view "Settlement cost element" that settlement receiver categoy FXA receives values "by cost element". This is only possible for primary cost elements. For internal activities do not tick "by cost element" but use a settlement cost element with cost element category "22".

Thanking you.
< For basic queries, refer to SAP Help or search the forums. Please respect forum rules. Thread Locked. >

This is dependend how you want to use this.
1 Only is asset accounting
2 In combination with internal orders
3 In combination with projects
In case 2 and 3 do you want to use budget management?

Settlement of Asset Under construction

Hi Folks
Can someone please explain an overview of settling Assets under construction. I am having some issues with AUC. The actual value of asset is being taken from AUC, not from final asset. Any kind of assistance will be highly appreciated.

Hi,
The Below are some important Steps.
1. T.code KO88 - Here you settle Expences to Settlement cost Elements via internal Order or Cost Centers. Give the Settlement rule and by tht Expences will be distrubuted or settled to SCE..
2. In AIAB T.code -Here Distrubution is done from Settlement Cost Elements to AUC, Here settlement rule is defined as such.
3. In AIBU T.code - Here Settlement if Cost from AUC to Actual Asst is Done.
after AIBU Transcation is Processed, you can directly run the Deprecation for tht Asset.
Hope the above would Help in Understanding the Concept of AUC Settlements.
Thanks

Accounting object to Asset under construction?

Please,
Question: Is it necessary to set an accounting object (ACSET) to asset under construction?
(I think we should define an internal order)
Thank you

hi Naej ,
For Auc Assets Account assignment object is not required to create.
Because when purchase any goods and Services automatically system captures profit center through document splitting.
For eX : Service Entry with internal order. Internal order may contain CC or PC.
If internal order contains CC or PC system derives
ExP             a/c DR              10000
                To              GR/IR              acccount           10000
Aftter that we are settling EXp from Order to AUC
AUC     account            dr        10000
         to        ExP        account        10000
System derives cost center / profit center from IO   to AUC.
Main Asset settlement :
Main Asset           DR         10000
         to     AUC accont          10000
Because of these reasons AUC is not Requried CO Assignment objects.
