Asset Under Construction- Wrong assigned for a Customer Project

Hello,
For a customer project, the AUC is created automatically which is not right.
We did analyisfrom our end.
1. It's a customer project
2. Investment profile is not assigned at the project profile level since it's a customer project.
3. we tried creating a project using the same profile in QAS environment,but the AUC is not created
So, could anybody help us in knowing what could have gone wrong, it will help us in our analysis.
Regards,
Nitin

Ok, the only way which I know where AUC gets created automatically for a WBSE is by assigning IM profile, but you say that your WBSE doesnt have IM profile. Check at the table level for the WBSE and see whether you can find the IM profile there or not. Also try to delete the AUC manually from asset transaction and see what message is getting issued.
What is your version of SAP? Also check the change documents, if you have activated, if someone has entered IM profile and later deleted, I can see some OSS notes for which AUC is not deleted even after removing IM profile from WBSE for versions like 4.6.

Hi Vinod,
I hope that you are following Valuated goods receipt concept.
Valuated goods receipt: Asset will be debited at the time of goods receipt
Non valuated good receipt: Asset will be debited at the time of invoice receipt
If you follow valuated goods receipt concept, then at the time of making down payment, AUC should not be debited (whatever the value date/ capitalization date be). Please refer SAP note number 310368 (valuated goods receipt paragraph) for reference. In that they have clearly mentioned the steps to make down payment against asset under construction Purchase Order without debiting to AUC and without any error message. You have to make F5 378 message number from error message to warning message and in posting key 29 and 39, you have to supress the asset related fields. If you have done the above settings, then system will not show any error message to update G/L account in AO90 transaction code for the Acquisition: down payments and Down payment clearing - 2nd and 4th field or for AUC related fields.
Hope this helps. Assign points if useful.

Steps for completing Asset under Construction

hi,
i have created the AUC asset class with line settlement checked.
will somebody be kind enough to show me the futher steps involved in customization along with postings and settlement procedure....

sayeed

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 for Investment Measures

Hi all
This is my client requirement
how to do asset under Construction for Investment Measures
configration
pls send configration

Hi
These are the steps to be followed:
1. Create a asset class for CWIP (Auc) - OAOA: In this select Investment Measure under Status of AuC.
2. Define Investment Profile (OITA) - Give AuC Asset class as invest measure asset class.
3. Create Internal Order Type for Investments: Normally standard 0650 order type will take care of the requirement. We need not to create anything.
4. Create Asset (AS01) under normal asset class i.e., buildings or vehicles etc... (You cannot create under AuC Asset Class)
5. Create Internal Order (KO01): Give Object class as investment and under Investments tab give investment profile created in step 2.
Go to settlement profile tab and give category as FXA and settlement receiver the asset no. and give 100%.
6. Change asset master to incorporate the internal order number under Origin Tab. Give no. in Investment order field.
7. Release the Internal Order (KO02)
8. Post the transactions through different T.Codes by referring Internal Order as account assignment.
9. Go to Internal Order through KO02 and complete TECO under control data.
10. Go to T.Code KO88 (internal order settlement) and settle the order.
Hope this will help you.

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.

Assign value to asset under construction

Hi Sirs,
I would like to know what i have to do to solve the problem with value for asset under construction. When I create asset with tr. AS91 in area for Takeover values, the field for ***.acquis.val. is not active.
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Dani

Hi Dani
I assume that you have maintained the takeover date and period for last depreciation posted in the old system. Apart from this you have to make sure that the capitalisation date in asset master should be prior to takeover date, In order for system to recognize that asset is a takeover asset this is very important. when all the input fields are greyed , this means system does not determine it to be an old asset which it derives from cap date.

Gather all cost for asset under construction

Hi everybody
Please tell me the way to gather all cost for asset under construction. You can detail as good as possible.
Thanks so much
Ngocpt

Dear Ngocpt,
Internal order is functionality from CO. U can use it for the purpose of collating all the cost. U can also do cost planning in internal orders. This helps u to analyse bet planned & actual cost.
Create IO thru KO01. Once created use it in ur transactions. In your case u can use it in posting any document to AUC.
Also as I mentioned in my previous post that IO can posted with real values and statis tical values. If you want to post statistical vales only then check the box statis tical order in control data.
Whenever passing an entry put ur IO number in "order" field.
Hope this is of use to u.

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.

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....

Capitalize borrowing costs to asset under construction u2013 IAS23

Dear experts,
According to IAS 23 we are required to calculate interest on capital invested in an asset under construction.
Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset form part of the cost of that asset. Where funds are borrowed specifically, costs eligible for capitalization are the actual costs incurred less any income earned on the temporary investment of such borrowings. Where funds are part of a general pool, the eligible amount is determined by applying a capitalization rate to the expenditure on that asset. The capitalization rate will be the weighted average of the borrowing costs applicable to the general pool. The amount of borrowing costs that an entity capitalizes during a period shall not exceed the amount of borrowing costs it incurred during that period.
Detail scenario
The construction of a qualifying asset is controlled by an investment measures that are managed as projects - WBS elements and settled to an asset under construction periodically. The calculated interest shall update only the determine depreciation area set on the interest profile (OPIB).
The borrowing operations are managed by money market transaction on TRM (Prod. Category 550 Interest rate instrument).
Using the interest calculation function (CJZ2 - Individual Processing or CJZ1 - Collective Processing) we encountered several problems/ restrictions.
1 u2013 When funds are borrowed specifically to a qualifying asset for example, an interest rate instrument as a money market transaction on TRM should be capitalized according to the actual incurred borrowing cost and not by a capitalization rate. How to assign the value to the WBS element?
2 u2013 When funds are part of a general pool, although we can calculate and update the effective interest rate for each borrowing transaction (TMEZ) how to determine the weighted average capitalization rate by company code and define it on the Reference Interest Rates (OBAC) to be used in the interest calculation?
3 u2013 Even if the capitalization rate is defined and updated manually in the reference interest rate for the interest calculation, how to limit the amount of borrowing costs that will be capitalized during the period? The calculated interest in period shall not exceed the amount of borrowing costs it incurred during that period.
Is there any other functionality to support interest calculation and capitalization of borrowing costs to asset under construction according to IAS23 requirements?
Please advice.

Hi,
The interest rates for capitalization and for appropriation can be collected in separate cost centers and apportioned to WBS . If you incur interests at the group level,then using accrual apportion the relevant portion to the respective C/Codes.
For arriving the weighted average i assume you take the planned interest.For restricting the planned to the actual ones use the " Budget Manager" functionality,give the actual value,set zero tolerance.This will help restricting to the actuals.
Hope this helps.

Ramesh

WBS Elements and Asset Under Constructions have different Cost Centers

Hello Experts,
We have created a WBS element in one of the projects.
As per standard process, when we create the WBS Element the Asset under construction is also getting created through the settlement rule within the WBS.
These assets should have the same Cost Center as the WBS has. However we are in a situation wherein the Cost Center in the asset under construction is different than the Cost Center in the WBS.
I have checked the settings like automatic account assignment, etc but all settings look correct.
Can you please explain first what could be the reason for such a difference between Cost Centers in WBS and AuC's and what is the solution to avoid it in future?
Thanks in advance
Leena

Thanks for your replies...
@ Alex - There is no Investment Programme ID maintained for this WBS in question since there is no IM for this project.
@ Abdul - Please elaborate more on Validation and Substitution.

Leena.

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".
