AuC Process

Hi Guru's,
Can you pls explain the AuC process ?
Regards
SF

Hi,
AuC (Asset Under Construction) are those assets which are not fully completed and in progress. Usually by nature they should take more than one fiscal year to get completed else one can easily create fixed asset when they are done in that fiscal year. There are many logics for the working of them but for understanding the complete cycle I will take approach on internal order with investment types.
Cycle:
Create internal order of investment type --> AuC will be created for it --> execute periodic settlement indicating transferring of values from order to AuC --> Once AuC is completed make the order as technically completed (TECO) --> Create fixed asset as a result of completion of AuC --> Provide the fixed asset under settlement rule --> execute full settlement transferring values to fixed asset --> Your AuC is completed as fixed asset which will now subjected to normal asset cycle. Below are details:
1) When you create internal order of investment type (KO01) that means you have an order to fulfill for investment. (you can additionally create budget for it - KO22 & KO24). During its creation AuC is created indicating where the investment is done. However the AuC asset number is still not reflected.
2) Do periodic settlement KO88 post which you will be able to see the AuC under the Settlement Rule button in KO02.
3) Till the time asset is not completed the allocation of budget in the internal order is done against the AuC. Once the asset is completed you need to transfer the balance against fixed asset(s) and capitalize them. You can transfer the balance against more than one asset. For example you have created internal order for creation of a building. When building is completed you can distribute the value to building and its furnishing on percentage basis. This can be achieved by making the order as technically completed (TECO) and then in the Settlement Rule button enter the details of the fixed asset(s) (and percentage allocation against them) against the AuC created. Category entered will be FXA. NOTE: create the fixed asset against which you wish to transfer the allocation.
4) Do the full settlement by executing KO88 and the fixed asset will be capitalized with Internal order value.
Hope this helps

WIP Credit Balance - Internal Capital Order Settlement Problem - KO88

Hi Experts,
I am new to SAP and currently undergoing my first implementation. We are trying to settle as many internal capital orders before conversion, but since I am new I am learning the AUC process slowly.
I am trying to settle assets to a capital work order and receiving the [maintain the settlement rule of the sender]. How can I fix this? If you can provide explanation as to the process it would be greatly appreciated.

hello,
Check your settlement rule? there must be a period maintained and this does not follow within that period
extend the period of settlement rule either greater than validity period of settlement rule.
Thanks

What are test conditions?

Hi,
My company has asked me to develop test conditions for the following scenario. We are developing a new comp. code and I need to develop the tests for this. The process flow is that we bought a company. So it is an Asset under Construction. We create the P.O. --> Internal Order --> AUC . I need a scenario test/conditions for this process. Also any reading material on developing test conditions and scenarios would be very helpful.

Internal Order Settled to AUC reverse process

Dear Gurus,
I had a hard time to think how to do the processes over and over again.
The current process is:
Every month the internal order (investment and real order) will collect the expense on AUC and settle to the AUC.
At the end of year, the AUC will be settled to Fix Asset by internal order settlement rules.
Now what if the settled expense was not correct. For example, in 2009, I created the IO and settled the IO to AUC in several months. But in 2010, I found the expense in IO shall not be settled to AUC, the expense was only the overheads. ( The AUC was not settled to Fix Assets). Just like I wanna reverse the settlement in 2009.
So it would be like this in a flow chart.
IO-> AUC->FX
Now I need to do this:
AUC->IO->GL
For IO->GL, I have figured out that I can change the settlement rule profile and make the GL account allowed.
But for AUC->IO , I have no idea and almost burn my brain on it.
Could you please help to throw light ?
Emma

Hi,
I tried 2 write offs, please help to see whether I am doing right. Thank you!
I tried to reverse the document but it was not allowed.
I am thinking to post a document like the following:

70 3270600041 000327000032 0000    2,964,800.00
2. What I want to post:
40 8910000000 settlement AUC         2,964,800.00      C1BIC83002
75 3270600041 000327000032 0000    2,964,800.00-
But it gave me an error when I enter the asset number.
Asset is investment measure, transaction type not allowed
Message no. AK005
Diagnosis
Asset   that is to be posted is an investment measure. You are not allowed to post transactions that affect acquisition value using the current transaction.

I am not sure which transaction type is correct.

AUC settlement process

Dear All,
Please let me know how to settle values from a GL to asset with AUC settlement process with out using Internal order.
Thanks,
Srini.

If you are not using internal order, you have to post each every expense to AUC (F-90)
After that first you need to enter distribution rule of AUC in AIAB
Then go for settlemetn in AIBU or in the same screen of AIAB

Capitalisation process for AUC

Please explain the capitalisation process of AUC ?
Thanks
Kalyan

hi,
Create separate asset class for AUC and create asset under the assets and do purchase against this asset no. then you want to settle this asset to main asset class. so AUC asset will not have any depreciation key. but receiver of the asset number will have the depreciation key.
settle the AUC asset to main asset class through AIAB and AIBU. Main asset will capitalised once he got the value from sender asset.

Please provide us.
Regards,
Mahesh

Hi,
For this create purchase order ME21N then select account assignment category "A" Asset in Item overview second column then fill all other relevant fields then system will prompt you to enter the asset number, here you can give AUC # for PO. After purchase order you can have MIGO for GRN and MIRO for Invoice with reference to the same purchase order (PO) for AUC.
Thanks

Hi,
I have faced this issue earlier. You have 2 options in this case.
Option 1 : As Ajay said, change the config to allow negative book value in the depn area. However i don't suggest the same because this will do away with an important validation , that the book value should never be negative. This happened only in exception cases.
Option 2 : You should mark the Asset master to allow negative values in the Tab Depn areas. Double click on the Depn area, and check the option " Negative values allowed ". With this, only for the asset, negative values are allowed. In case you don't see this field, you need to change screen layout rule so that the field is visible.
Please note once you check the negative values allowed option in the asset master, you cannot change it once you settle the Asset.
You should check the negative values allowed indicator for the AUC concerned.

AUC Down Payment issue

Dear Experts,
Recently we have activated the down payment process in our system for normal purchase orders without configuring for AUC. In the month end we settle the internal orders to AUC (KO88), while doing this process, I got the error You cannot use this transaction type to post to this asset Message no. AA834,
I fixed this error by doing the required configuration in OAYB. In the next error system was throwing the errors related to account determination which can be fixed by maintaining the acquisition down payments and down payment clearing account in AO90.
I don’t understand the strange behavior of the system. There is no down payment in any of the purchase orders related to the AUC even then system is insisting for the down payment configuration.
I have maintained account determination in our test system and processed KO88 I can able to settle the internal order but some additional transaction with odd value has got posted by debiting the down payment acquisition WIP and crediting the Down payment clearing account.
I did not understood from where this value is flowing.
Please throw some light on this issue. I want to settle the internal orders to AUC without any error related to down payment as we are not using down payment for AUC.
With Regards
Uday

Hi,
If you are using Internal Order in Purchase Order and while doing down payment against Purchase Order, system is also picking Internal Order while processing down payment which cause of errors and posting Down Payment amount on asset while settling Internal Order.
Please follow the steps for not posting down payment to Internal Order.
Check your GL account which is using for Posting Down Payment against Sp. GL Ind. (Alternate GL Account)
Check the field status of that account.
Maker CO/PP Order as suppress field in Additional Account assignments.
Now Internal Order field will be suppress at the time of down payment against Purchase Order and then no down payment will be settle to Asset while settling Internal Order.

AJ

Unable to process downpayment request (F-47) for the vendor with the PO

Hi Ram,
Please check AO90 and OAYB
In AO90 you should assign one Asset GL Account.
for this: go to AO90 select you chart of accounts and double click on acocunt Determination select your asset determination against which asset you are paying down payment and double click on Balance sheet accounts there you need to assign under acquisition account assginment * Acquisition:Down Payment* and Down Payment clearing Account. This is only for AUC.
In OAYB select 15 Down payment and double click on specification of asset class there you need assign your asset class.
Hope this will help you.

"Error when processing AUC for wbs,
Substitution AS01 not found"

Vineeth

Hi All ,
I am getting this error as shown in the attachment. when I have selected the Investment profile with asset class 9000 (for creating automatic AUC) Capital investment measures. when I release it I am getting the following error. I have also attached the number range maintained.

AUC (CWIP) Error

Hi,
While creating the WBS Element user has wrongly updated Requesting company code.
all AUC assets were created in requesting company code for the investment management.
PO is created with that WBS Element & GR, Invoice, Vendor Payment also made.at the time of GR (Service PO) FI Entry was created as below.
CWIP Exp A/c Dr 500 (with WBS as cost object)
To GR/IR A/c 500
now while settlement CWIP Exp is going to requesting co code AUC which were created at the time of WBS Element Creation with different requesting Co Code with Cross Company Transaction activated. now i tried to remove reqesting company code from WBS it is showing below error.
Asset 300200000682 0 not in requesting company code ABC In global memory of function group AIST
Message no. AA001
Diagnosis
The asset number 300200000682 0 you entered, does not exist in company code ABC In global memory of function group AIST.
System Response
Processing cannot be continued.
Procedure
Correct your entry.
It is also possible that this asset is defined as a group asset. In that case, it cannot be used as an asset.
i need
1) can i remove or change requesting comapny code from WBS.
2) can i delete AUC's which were created in requesting company code & recreate in existing Co Code (Transactions posted PO to
PAY)
3) How do i capitalize the CWIP Exp to original company code AUC.
Regards,
Ravi

Hi,
the only possibility I see is to do the full settlement to the final asset and then to transfer the values from the final asset in requesting company code to the final assets in the correct company code.

AUC asset settlement to P&L account

Hello Experts,
Can we transfer the AUC value to P&L account directly through F-02, without capitalizing and scrapping it? No error showing Asset is investment measure, transaction type is not allowed. Is there any relevant transaction type available for this process? Is it compulsory to follow the usual steps of capitalizing, scrapping and charging off to P&L or we can directly do the posting?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Partha

Hi Partha,
you can post the entry from AUC to P&L account with t coe FB01.
AUC credit (75). (use TTY 20A- retirement without revenue)
P&L account Debit (40).

Ravi

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.
Thanks
