AUC Asset Affected in PS?
Hi,
I am taking care of FI-AA module. Our user would like to close the WBS.The WBS was actually fully settled to the other 2 Fixed Assets some yeas ago:
AsstA : AUC with zero value in Book Depre area.
AsstB : Fixed Asset
AsstC : Fixed Asset
The AsstA is having NBV in other Depre area. The WBS cannot be closed as as the AUC AsstA is having the value in other depre area. FI walkaround is to turn off the 'Investment Measure' for the particular asset and re-adjust the value via transaction. My worried is, the value adjusted, would there be any posting/affects to/in the PS system?
Can someone share your expertise? Thank you in advance.
Hi Claudia K,
You should not adjust your values in FI by removing Invesment measure. If you try to remove, investment measure in AUC, you are removing the reference to project. This will lead to many problems and you cannot close the project.
The problem for your issue may be
Either you have costs in your project or your AUC is still holding some costs which comes from Project.
Solution:
1. Change back the status of the project to "REL"
2. Run settlement from project to AUC. This will transfer/capitalize all the costs from project to AUC
3. Run settlement from AUC to Fixed asset.
Change the status of the project to "TECO" and follow the points 1 to 3.
Hopefully this will solve your problem.

SanjaiHi Sreekanth,
What is the setting needed to create AUC Automatically when an Internal order is created ?
I have done all the setting, but still when I save Internal order neither AUC asset is getting created.
So I went to extras selected create AUC and it went to AS01, but when I came back (F3) from AS01 to Internal Order and save , Auc Asset is not getting captured in the settlement rule. I even tried to give manually the AUC Asset in the settlement rule, for which sys is not allowing in the settlement rule.
Any thoughts are highly appreciated
Advance Thanks

AUC Asset and depreciation error in Area 20
Hi All,
I have a problem with AUC settlement, there is negative values in my AUC (Area 01, no values in Area 20) and when I am settle that to Asset master I got the error message Negative values not allowed in Area 01. So I have selected negative values allowed check box for Area 1 and Area 20 in AUC asset master data, now the settlement is fine and have settled that.
Now the main problem I am facing is, here am seeing the balance of negative value on AUC asset under the Area 20 and also the total negative value is picking as Accumulated depreciation.
Could you one provide the ideas how the nagative balace went in Area 20 and why it caluculated depreciation even though the depreciation key is 0000.
Thanks
SreenivasHai Qian,
You can maintain the Net book value and special depreciationall values allowed in OADB t.code or whtever fields u want the maintain the All values allowed

AUC asset settlement to assets
Hi Experts,
I have an AUC asset amount flows from GR/IR and Miro. I need to settle it to multiple assets. I was able to distribute AUC to different assets through AIAB. Once this is done, when i go for settlement(AIBU) its giving an error msg " Settlement amount> Available amount" . I have checked the amount and found to be correct. No discrepancy in data is observed.
Thanks,

Internal Order for AUC Asset not getting created Automatically
As per SAP Standard , when I create an AUC Internal Order (KO01), and save , AUC asset is gets created automatically ted via AS01 and stores the AUC Asset in Internal Order settlement rule.
However when tried with the client Im not able to create, AUC is not getting automatically created and stored in Int Order Settlement rule.
In config I have added investment profile to Ord Type and in OAOA ( AUC Asset class setting , Investment profile is also checked)
Kindly let me have your inputs to fix the issue
Advance Thanks
SanjaiHi,
In order to create AUC asset automatically by the system, you need to create an investment profile in OITA.
Then assign this investment profile in the Internal order master data created through KO01 in the Investments tab.
There is no option of assigning the Investment profile in the Order type.
And in OAOA that is Asset class, select the radio button investment measure.
You can default the Asset class of AUC in the investment profile or leave it blank so that same can be filled when system prompts for AUC creation.
You cant see the AUC asset in the settlement rule once Investment order is created, but only after settlement of the balances to the AUC u can see.
Thanks & Regards,

VIV for AuC asset error.
Hi Friends,
We have a scenario,
1. PO for asset was made in foreign currency and GRN done.
2. AuC asset settled
3. Now while making the VIV the exhange rate is changed and the system is trying to credit the asset, but as the asset is already settled and the balance is 0, system gives error message
"Acquisition value negative in area 01."
Now the issue is we can't have negetive value in the asset, we can't stop processing the VIV.
Any standard way to handle this.
Kindly suggest.
Regards,Hi,
thanks for ur reply, i treid that earlier at sandbox.
Can't do that as that will allow the value of the asset to go below 0. Which is not the policy.

Exchange rate diff amount posted to AUC asset
Hello All,
I am stuck with one issue and looking for some help
We are creating purchase order with account assignment as projects and then doing MIGO & MIRO and then settling through CJ88 to AUC asset.
The issue is related to exchange rate difference amount posted to AUC asset.
MIGO and MIRO are done on different dates and the difference amount in exchange rate posted to GL account maintained in KDM.
Now, when i settle the WBS element through CJ88 the AUC asset is posted with amount including the exchange rate difference amount.
Business do not want the exchange rate amount added to the AUC asset.
please confirm is this the system standard behavior .
Your inputs appreciated.
Thanks
ShashiHi Shashi,
As per Accounting Standards, the asset must be valued on the exchange rate on the date which risk and reward is transferred from seller to buyer.
For example If the vendor despatch the assets on 01.03.2014 at his place and contract is Exworks then the asset must be valued on exchange rate on 01.03.2014. Lets assume exchange rate on that day is 1USD=60INR. The price is 100 USD. You receive the assets on 10.03.2014 and exchage rate on that day is 55 INR. Now if you make GR on 10.03.2014 Asset value will be 5500 INR whereas as per AS it should be 6000 INR. That is why when you do MIRO the differnce between 6000 and 5500 is posted to asset.
When you do MIRO you must enter currency(USD) in Basic data tab and exchange rate 60 in details tab.
What happens in your system is standard behavior of SAP as well as correct process as per Accounting Standards.
Hope it is clear.

Asset Transfer ( Regular asset to AUC asset )
Can we transfer regular asset to AUC asset class.. When I'm going to transfer reguler asset to AUC it gave me following error
"Account 'Acc.dep. accnt. for ordinary depreciation' could not be found for area 01"
Regards
KesharikaHi,
You can transfer from normal asset to AUC asset only if you selected the check box trans APC only in Tcode OAY1 within your COD for TTY 300 and 310.
Please test the same in your sand box, i hope it works.

AUC- Asset Under Construction - Gap Analysis
Hi Guru's,
I have a requirement to know the Gap Analysis on Asset Under Construction.
We are under Analysis Phase where i have to find out the Gaps related to business.
I received a Reporting FD and asked to find out the data source.
Please provide the Gap Analysis steps to over come on this specific requirement.
Based on my analysis i found multiple tables to derive the AUC - Asset Under Construction solution.
Tables that involved to get the Asset Under Construction:ANLA, ANLZ, PRPS, ANEP, BPDY, T093B
My Questions:
Is there any SAP Standard Data Source for AUC- Asset Under Construction.
Now in my high level requirement we are pulling the information from multiple tables.
Please provide me suggestions how can i go ahead with the above requirement.
Regards,
GanniDepends on how the FICO guys have configured AuC
If they have chosen a separate asset class for this (as what tends to happen) - then the std asset data model will cater for this
Just run the std content reports or build your own for the asset class of AuC -

Dear All,
After settling the AUC asset to normal asset, values are not flowing into the group asset number which is tagged to the normal asset master data whereas under normal asset, values are flowing accurately.
Kindly give your suggestions over this.
Regards
AnujHi Anuj,
What i feel is group asset is only for reporting IT Dep Values.
and also please also check the following settings for group assets:-
Asset grouping, depreciation etc) as per Indian IT act from SAP system
Country Version India comes with a report for calculating depreciation on
asset blocks (asset groups) as required by law for calculating a company's
taxable income.
Country Template
The country template for India comes with the following settings:
- Chart of depreciation
- Depreciation keys as per the income tax laws
Year-End Income Tax Depreciation Report
You use this report to calculate the depreciation on your assets and any
capital gains or losses according to the Income Tax Act.
To access the report, from the SAP Easy Access screen, choose *Accounting
(r) Financial Accounting (r) Fixed Assets (r) *Information
System* (r) *Reports
on Asset Accounting* (r) Taxes (r) Country Specifics (r) India
(r) *Year-End
IT Depreciation Report*.
Prerequisites
You can use the Customizing settings delivered by SAP in order to configure
Asset Accounting (FI-AA) with respect to the income tax depreciation area
and so that the report works correctly. For more information about what
settings to make, see the Release Note structure under FI (r) *Release Notes
from Country Version India Add-On* (r) *Customizing Settings for Income Tax
Act*. Given below:
Customization Settings relevant to Income Tax Act Description
In India, depreciation on assets for the purpose of computation of net
income as per the Income Tax (IT) Act 1961 is calculated over a block of
assets instead of individual assets as allowed under the Companies Act 1956
Asset acquisitions and retirements are managed over the block level. The IT
Act prescribes certain rates of depreciation to be used under the Written
Down Value (WDV) method over these asset blocks to compute depreciation.
The following are the customization settings that may be followed in the
R/3 system in order to manage your assets in the income tax depreciation
area.
*Customization settings *
1. Copy the standard chart of depreciation 0IN as provided by SAP and create
your own chart of depreciation.
2. Use the depreciation area 15 for the purpose of management of assets
under the IT Act. Make it statistical in nature. (Reference Transaction
Code: OADB). Do not check the box negative net book value.
3. Specify that the Income Tax depreciation area takes over the APC from the
book but not make it identical (Reference Transaction Code: OABC).
4. Create an asset class for the purpose of income tax blocks. This asset
class will be used to create only group assets. (Reference Transaction Code
OAOA)
5. Specify that the depreciation area for income tax can be managed only for
group assets. (Reference Transaction Code: OAYM). This would mean that
depreciation for this depreciation area would be computed only at group
asset level.
6. Specify that the asset class defined in (b) above will be used for
creating group assets only. (Reference Transaction Code: OAAX)
7. Two period control methods (IT and NL) have been defined in the system
for determination of start or the end of depreciation calculation at the
time of a fixed asset acquisition or retirement. You may use these period
control methods while creating the depreciation keys for the purpose of IT
depreciation.
Calendar assignments have been made for the above mentioned period control
methods in order to reflect valuation requirements as per the Income Tax
Act (Transaction Code: OAVH). You may create your own period control
methods depending on the fiscal year variant you use. The period control
methods supplied are based on the fiscal year variant V3.
8. Depreciation Keys:
The following depreciation keys have been created in the system. They
correspond to the income tax block that are prescribed under Indian tax
laws. They are as below:
*Depreciation Keys : *
1. IN1 - Tax Depreciation - 5% - India
2. IN2 - Tax Depreciation - 10% - India
3. IN3 - Tax Depreciation - 15% - India
4. IN4 - Tax Depreciation - 20% - India
5. IN5 - Tax Depreciation - 25% - India
6. IN6 - Tax Depreciation - 40% - India
7. IN7 - Tax Depreciation - 50% - India
8. IN8 - Tax Depreciation - 60% - India
9. IN9 - Tax Depreciation - 100% - India
The features of the keys supplied are as below:
Depreciation type: ordinary depreciation
Class: declining balance depreciation
Depreciation method: stated percentage
Base value: remaining book value with proportional value adjustments
Percentage rate: will correspond to the depreciation rate of an IT block
Period controls:
Acquisition: IT
Acquisition in following year: IT
Retirement: NL
Transfer: NL
9. For the asset classes corresponding to the IT blocks, default the
corresponding depreciation key for the depreciation area created for income
tax. (Reference Transaction Code: OAYZ). Use an infinite useful life e.g.
999.
10. Create a screen layout rule for depreciation areas (Reference
Transaction Code : AO21) in which the field group asset is mandatory.
11. While maintaining the other asset classes for the income tax
depreciation area, use the screen layout rule as in (j). (Reference
Transaction Code: OAYZ).
12. Create group assets using the asset class defined in (b), where each
group asset master record corresponds to an IT block. You will be able to
view only the income tax depreciation area for the group assets.
13. Maintain the following posting variants for the transaction types
normally used for asset retirements: 200, 210, 250, 260 (Reference
Transaction Code: OAYS) in the income tax depreciation area:
Treatment of retirement: balance revenue
14. Create individual asset master records, where for the income tax
depreciation area, you have to enter a group asset. Choose the group asset
depending to which IT block your asset belongs.
Note :
1. For individual assets, the system will not show any depreciation in the
income tax depreciation area.
2. For the group assets, the system will not display the book depreciation
area.
3. At the time of takeover of old asset data, create the group assets first
and specify the opening gross value and accumulated depreciation for the
income tax depreciation area. Then while creating the individual assets, you
have to specify the opening gross value and accumulated depreciation for the
book depreciation area only.
Features
Selection
Enter the asset numbers of your group assets and other selection data as
required.
Output
The system:
- Calculates the
depreciation on
each asset block
- Calculates any capital gains or
losses
If you deselect Test Run, the system also:
- Posts the depreciation to the income tax depreciation area
- Stores the capital gains amounts from the report in a table for your
future reference.
Calculation of Depreciation
Use
The program calculates the depreciation on each asset block according to the
Income Tax Act.
Features
Depreciation of Asset Blocks
The Income Tax Act requires you to depreciate all assets in blocks (in the
SAP System, called asset groups). In other words, you do not calculate the
depreciation on each individual asset. Instead, an asset group has its own
net book value.
The asset block's net book value increases when you add assets to it and
falls when you sell or retire assets. You also calculate depreciation on the
block's net book value. The depreciation rate depends on the asset block and
is prescribed by the government. Since an asset block may exist for a very
long time, as you add new assets to it, it has an unrestricted useful life.
For example, assume your company has four trucks. At the beginning of fiscal
20X1, the trucks have a total net book value, for income tax purposes, of
INR 300,000. At the end of the year, with no acquisitions and no
retirements, the net book value has not changed. The total depreciation on
all of the trucks is 10% of INR 300,000, or INR 30,000.
The total net book value of the block at the beginning of 20X2 is therefore
INR 270,000.
New Assets Held for Less Than 180 Days
If you purchase an asset less than 180 days before the end of the fiscal
year, you are only entitled to depreciate it at half of the normal rate of
depreciation. To continue the example, on 1 June 20X2 you sell a truck for
IN 30,000. On 31 March the following year, instead of posting INR 3,000
depreciation, you can only post half of that, INR 1,500.
The system handles this requirement by taking half the acquisition cost and
calculating depreciation on that.
Asset Retirements
When you retire an asset, you are not entitled to calculate any depreciation
on it in that fiscal year at all.
Calculation of Capital Gains or Losses on Sales of Assets
Use
The system automatically calculates any gains of losses on sales of assets
according to the Income Tax Act. Any gains or losses have to be taxed.
Features
If you sell an individual asset from a block, the value of the asset block
goes down by the sale price. For example, assume that you have an asset
block of trucks. On 1 April 20X2, the trucks' total net book value is INR
270,000. On 1 February 20X3 you sell one of the trucks for INR 50,000. At
the end of the year, the net book value before depreciation is therefore INR
220,000.
Capital Gains
If the sale of an asset causes the value of the asset block to fall below
zero, the amount below zero constitutes a capital gain under the terms of
the Income Tax Act. For example, on 1 April 20X3 the trucks' total net book
value is INR 198,000. On 1 December you sell a truck for INR 210,000. On 31
March 20X4 the system determines the asset block's net book value as:
INR 198,000 u2013 INR 210,000 = u2013 INR 12,000
This makes a capital gain of INR 12,000, which the system stores in a table
for your future reference.
The following year, the net book value of the asset block is set to zero.
Capital Losses
If you sell all the assets in a block, but the block still has a net book
value, the system posts this value as a capital loss. For example, if you
have a block with only one asset valued at INR 12,000, and you sell it for
INR 10,000, the net book value of the block is still INR 2,000, even though
there are no assets in it.
The system stores the capital loss amount in a table for your future
reference.

Error when I execute CJ88 form WBS element to AUC asset.
Hi,
We have one WBS element which was created to settle the values to AUC asset at the period end. Now we are in 2012 fiscal year 8th period. Asset accounting books were closed for company code of the 2011 fiscal year. This company code currency AUD and Controlling area currency is EUR.
User has booked some expenses to this WBS element in company code currency in 2012 fiscal year 1st period. When he tried to settle in 2012 fiscal year 1st period, he is getting error like "First clear the values in previous year". when we go and see the WBS element for the 12th period of 2011 fiscal year, still there is a difference "0.01".
When we go and see the CJI3 for this WBS element, fiscal year 2011 and period 12 still there is some 0.01 value. My doubt is why system is showing this difference in CJI3, even I have posted transactions in company code current. Client was able to close the Asset accounting books without any errors.
User has posted expenses debit and credit amount to this WBS element during the period in 2012 fiscal year, still system is showing 5.25 difference for the same WBS element in CJI3 transaction code.
Could any body help me to know why this difference is showing even we post the amounts in company code currency. Why system has not given any error in 2011 fiscal year when user was closing books for asset accounting?
Thanks and regards,
Yelamanda Rao.When closing the year, the system checks to see if Periodic Posting has been recently run, and throws error if it still needs running. System performs other checks too, such as checks for incomplete asset records.
However, the system doesn't check for missed settlements. We have to manually check for settlement errors, and for pending settlements, before closing out the AA year.
There could be an OSS Note on this topic, do not know. You may need to reopen the fiscal year and AA year and complete your asset support transactions, settlement, periodic posting, AFAR, AFAB.
Since the year is already audited, stay in touch with accounting and your auditor before taking these steps.
It is possible to enter offsetting g/l entries to nullify and defer the impact of your settlement, etc., to FY12 if your requirement is to not alter the FY11 g/l balances audited. But the AA sub-ledger will be slightly changed.

Hello Gurus,
Can anybody help me Below Issues,
1. what is the different between normal asset and AUC
2..without any integration with SD MM and CO can i do AUC asset class
Regards
SriHi
1.AUC (Asset Under Constructioin) assets are the assets which are in Progress state, so they are not in actual used. There will be no depreciation will be charged for these assets. Dep key 0000 is used for these assets so no depreciation will be calculated. Once these asssets are completed they are transfered to Normal Fixed Asset. According to these Normal Fixed Asset dep key setting they are depreciated.
2. You can have AUC asset without any integration with SD MM but need CO module. Normally WBS element are settled on AUC assets or from Investment Management cost pulled in AUC.
