Asset Write-off after retirement

Dear Masters in Asset Accounting,
I have a situation where I have to write off the asset in secondary ledger (Ledger A2). The problem is that the asset retirement (ABAVN) was done in the past so I can't write-off the same by using T-code ABSO. Also, we are posting the depreciation to that asset since last 5 months, so I can't write-off by using FB01 / FB01L.
Is there any other way I can write off the asset after retirement only in secondary ledger?
Thank you for reading this and your help.
Jay

Hi Bernhard,
Why you can't make a write-off?
A: Because it gives me an error message. When I try to use ABSO, it gives me an error message saying Asset retirement has alredy been posted so transaction not possible. I am using ABSO because I want to make changes only in ledger A2 (secondary ledger / US GAAP). I can't ABAVN again because it will affect both the ledgers which I want to change only US GAAP.
Is the asset deactivated after ABAVN?
A: No, the asset is not deactivated. It is still active and in use.
Thank You,
Jay

Park Asset Write Off Posting

Dear SAP Gurus,
Can anyone help me with one of the Asset scenarios, whereby the user wants to have the option to park the asset write off first before making the actual posting. I can't seems to find any function available for this. If not, can anyone suggest if there's other way to resolve this.
Thank you very much. Your advice is much appreciated.
regards,
Aziah

Hi
Welcome to SDN
I dont think its possble... You can Simulate the entry before posting, check and then Post... there is no option to Park as far as I know

Asset write-off in prior month.

Is it possible to write off assets from an earlier month end date e.g the NBV of assets with a month end date of 31/05/09 or can you only write off within the current month?
If this is possible, how will SAP deal with the depreciation and how will it charge any depreciation posted after that date?

Hi Jeremy Lumb
Yes you can retire an asset in prior period where depreciation has already been posted. The system will recalculate the total depreciation for year in the retirement year and make adjustments (positive value) in the next period. You can then run depreciation again so the adjusted value will be posted .
Hope this helps.
Thanks

Asset write off in the current fiscal year.

Hi Experts,
I want to write off an asset in next 4 periods of the current fiscal year 2007. For example:
Asset 11000
APC value: 10000
APC Date: 01.01.2005
The useful life will end in fiscal year 2008.
The book value left at the begining of the current fiscal year 2007 Rs. 4000.00
In the current fiscal year this asset has already been depreciated for previuos 3 periods.
Now Business wants to write off ( fully depreciated ) this asset in next 4 periods equally and then if the book value and tax value is nil, they want to scap the asset.
Now can you please tell me how to make this happened. Its very urgent. If you need any more information, most welcome.
Rgds,
BABA

Hi,
You would have to set the asset to manual depreciation(Depr.Key MANU)
and generate a posting via ABMA for each of the periods.
Kind regards

Write off assets

What is the best method to write off assets to 0, This means I want to accelerate depreciation so that the asset net value reaches 0. But I <b>do not</b> wat to retire the asset.

Post unplanned depreciation in the amount of the current net book value. Keep in mind that this will take affect after depreciation is run (it is not an FI document) and will therefore show the asset as being fully depreciated.
There are some other ways (using special depreciation transactions) but this is the one most widely used.

Partial Retirement in ABAVN Transaction; Write-off quatity; ANLA-MENGE

Hi Experts,
I hv gonr thru one Z_Prog. & assuming like,
The Z-Prog. is pulling the data of ANLA-MENGE i.e. Quantity of a given Asset (Sub) Number(say, Asset_Sub_No_123). Say the quantity is 10 EA.
Then Z_Prog is doing Write-off of quantity of 4 EA.
Finally, doing ABAVN transaction,
So, am assuning like,
1) The Partial Retirement quantity in ABAVN transaction, is 4 EA!
2) The new/updated quantity of Asset_Sub_No_123 = 10 - 4 = 6!
3) i.e. updated ANLA-MENGE = 6!
Is my assumptions r correct?
ThanQ.

Write off the asset

Hi,
Please can someone advice me how do we write off the asset.
Regards,
Parul

hi
You can call up the asset history sheet as a totals list, or as a detail list showing individual assets. The detail list shows the capitalization date for each asset, and, if applicable, the deactivation date and any transactions in the year being reported.
There is a special history sheet version defined for showing special reserves for special depreciation. This version shows the
·        Initial balance
·        Allocation to special reserves
·        Write-off (depreciation) of special reserves
·        Write-off of special reserves due to asset retirements
·        Write-off of special reserves due to transfers
·        Closing balance
Procedure
       1.      Call up the report for creating the asset history sheet (Info system ® Report selection ® Balance sheet explanations).
       2.      Enter the start parameters for the report. Make the following particularly important entries
         Company code for the report
         Report date
         Sort version that you want to use
         Asset history sheet version that you want to use
         Use the current book value indicator to specify if you wish to show planned annual depreciation, or the depreciation already posted.
       3.      If you have not posted the actual retirement of low value assets, you can use the asset history sheet to simulate their retirement (in order to minimize the transactions necessary for their retirement). In this case, enter the asset class for low value assets.
You also need to specify a time period for the retirement simulation. Please note that the simulation time period must begin on the same date every year so that LVAs can be shown continuously and correctly in the history sheet. This fixed start date should lie in the distant past (for example 1900). Using the same start date each year ensures that LVAs, for which retirement has already been simulated, do not appear in the history sheet with their APC in subsequent years. In addition, the end date for the simulation time period has to be in a fiscal year that is still open.
The same procedure applies for intangible assets.
Graphic: Simulation Time Period
       4.      Limit the report as needed. If needed, make additional entries for lists created using batch input.

Asset Capitalized on: 28.02.2009 and depreciation key used as: LINK-Str.-line from acq.value to zero without interest. Asset Retirement done with revenue (210) on 31.05.2009. We do have depreciation like (01 book depreciation, 15 Tax depreciation, 30 Local GAAP book depreciation). Below is the asset and class:
Asset name: Maruti Baleno
Asset Class: Vehicles
Here my question is after retirement done with the transaction code: ABAON u201CDeactivation onu201D date is not updating automatically in the system, however when am trying to update manually the system showing error like u201CDeactivation not possible. Dep.area 15 has acquisition values.
When am trying to do same transaction with T code: u201CABAVNu201D, the system updating the deactivation date.
Can anybody explain me why the above error happening and why the deactivation date is not updating with t code: ABAON.
Thanks,
Francis.J

Dear Atif Farooq,
In the AO74 the transaction types (Deactivate fixed asset check box also ticked)

210 Retirement with revenue
When am trying to update manually below error appearing in AS02
Deactivation not possible. Dep.area 15 has acquisition values

You cannot deactivate, since acquisition values are still present in depreciation area 15.

Deactivation can only be posted by a complete retirement/transfer. The deactivation date is then set automatically.
The above asset procured in the year of 2009 and same has been retired 2009.
