  • Asset Transfer ABUMN - Depreciation Start Date

    We have a problem with when Depreciation begins for an Asset as below:
    The Business has transferred Asset A to Asset B via TCode ABUMN.
    Asset A deactivated = 17.08.2011
    Asset B Asset Value Date = 17.08.2011
    Asset B Depn Calculation Start Date = 01.09.2011
    When reviewing Depn for Asset B in TCode AW10 u2013 Ordinary Depn will not be posted until the new Financial Year 04.2012.
    How is it possible to have Depn post from 01.09.2011 as defined in Depn Calculation Start Date?

    In the problem scenario, for Asset A, there hashas been an Asset impairment in P3 FY2011 and this reversed in P5 FY2012. I have a feeling this may be the root of the problem, but as yet I haven't been able to confirm........

  • ABUMN- Assets transfer between assets class within company

    hi
    i am using the T. code ABUMN for Assets transfer between one class to other with thin the same cpmpany  for the assets purchased during currenting year not posting give error message AA417, for old assets it is working.
    pls help to solve this issue
    thanks and regards

    Hello all,
    We are testing the transaction ABUMN in a system version ECC 6.0 with New G/L activated and, we have received an error message GLT2152 asking for an account determination...
    We have custumized the characteristics for general ledgers activating Zero balance & Mandatory field's flags for Profit center and, just Zero balance for the Segment; additionally we created and customized the Zero-balance Clearing Account.
    We also checked that all involved accounts were included in the "Classify G/L Accounts for Document Splitting" customizing icon and, that the document type generated by the asset transfer is included in the "Classify Document Types for Document Splitting" one...
    I personally think that perphaps the system finds that each Asset has a different Cost center (linked to their own profit centers and segments) so it stops and wonders which one most be derived for the splitting document... The zero balance clearing account could be the solution but, I don't know why it is not working...
    So, since there is not any SAP-Note nor info regarding this error message GLT2152, we appreciate any comment or guidance from you friends.
    Thanks a lot in advance and, best regards,

  • ABUMN asset transfer

    Hey Guys,
    When doing an inter company asset transfer we are facing an issue as the current year depreciation for tax books remains on both the old and new asset. Before doing an asset transfer I could change the key to 0000 but in my copy controls I am copying the depreciation key to the new asset as well, so that will mean that the new asset will also get the key 0000 but I want the new key to use the original tax key that was assigned to the asset being transferred. How do you over come this issue?
    This problem is only for the tax books
    E.g. Asset 76333 is being transferred. key NA0
          Acquisition value            10000
          Accum Depreciation         5000
          Current year depreciation  200  ( half year convention)
       When I do an ABUMN- it copies all the information from the original asset
         New asset 76334
      Acquisition value    10000
      Accum depreciation 5000
      Current year dep     200
    The current year depreciation is being calculated for both the assets. If I change the key of the asset being retired to 0000 , then the new asset will also have key 0000.  I want the new asset to have current year depreciation of 200 but the old asset should have 0000.
    Please advice

    Hi,
    Your OAYZ settings will have priority over copy rules of dep key in AO21.
    Change your dep key as required and post ABT1N with that asset and give sending asset as reference asset. Since your new asset will copy settings from OAYZ for the dep area tab, but not from the copy rules of sending asset.
    I have tested too.
    Thanks,

  • Assets transfer using ABUMN and getting error already retired.

    Hi AA Gurus
    I have two assets and want to move to sub assets of another asset.e.g asset 201,202 to be transfered to 203-1,203-2.
    I created sub asset using AS11.I am transferring to sub assets using ABUMN. I get ever time error as "Transaction on asset 123 203-1 not possible, retirement already in document ". This asset is not retired. So I created 2 assets fresh ( doc date ,acqusition date of today to experiment ) and then created a sub asset using As11. When I tried ABUMN for transferring it came up with
    same message retirement not possible ,retirement already in doc. What is happening here ? I have checked the asset using as03 and don't see as retired ( i just created the asset ). Kindly give me some idea how to transfer two assets to sub assets of another asset.
    I have checked other similar question on forum but solution did not work for me.Kindly give me some idea why this error keep coming even though asset is not retired and created today itself to test ABUMN.
    Thanks in advance

    Here are my observation and question in itlaic .Kindly suggest me what should be done.
    Please go to Financial Accounting -> Asset Accounting -> Master data -> Specific Time-Independent Management of Organizational Units
    Not checked for any co code.
    If you set this indicator, the system manages the organizational units 'business area' and 'cost center' (and thereby 'profit center') as not time dependent in the asset master records in this company code.
    Any change to these organizational units during master data maintenance then automatically generates a transfer posting document.
    If the indicator is not set, you have to create a new asset master record, and manually transfer the entire asset, when the business area changes (and you are using business area balance sheets).
    I am doing it manually only.I don't think that there is organizationla units change is invloved.I have two assets and I am transferring it as two sub assets of a new asset ( created for this purpose only ).All the assets are of same class.
    Also, please go to Asset accounting -> Integration with GL -> Post depreciation to General Ledger -> ... -> Activate account assignment objects
    Please check if assignment object KOSTL has field "BalSh" ticked.
    No it is not ticked. Other two active and agreement are ticked.
    Account assignment objects that are relevant to the balance sheet can no longer be changed directly in the asset master record once the asset has been capitalized. Instead, such assets have to be transferred to a new asset master record to make this change.

  • Multiple Assets transfer in ABUMN

    Hi All,
    I need to transfer 1 asset to multiple assets (eg 20 assets equally) within same comapany code. I tried thru T code ABUMN by choosing option "multiple assets".
    There, under "From asset" i gave the same asset number 2 times, one below the other and in "To assets" I gave 2 different assets. When i hit enter, the second line item gets deleted, making 1 asset transfer to 1 asset.
    Could anyone let me know whether its possible to transfer 1 asset to multiple assets in ABUMN or any other way.
    Thanks,
    Ameet

    Hi,
    This can be done through ABUMN only, but not ata time. for example:
    You have to post 3 transactions individually to that old asset.
    For the first ABUMN transaction choode partial transfer and choose amount specification.
    For the second ABUMN transaction choode partial transfer and choose amount specification.
    For the last ABUMN transaction choose Complete retiremnet. (So the balancewill be transfered to the third new asset)
    Please check.

    how to reverse, in which T.Code,  any implication is thre please let me know.
    Regards

    Use AB08 to reverse your transaction.
    No implecations by doing reversal of this document using the same asset value date, which you have used for ABUMN.

  • One to Many Asset Transfer

    Hi,
    For asset transfer within same co code, using TCODE ABUMN, in the mutiple assets tab, we cant use the same asset no more than once in the "From" assets column. Basically, we cant do One to Many asset transfer with this t-code.
    Are there any workaround(s) for same, and any thoughts on why this was not allowed by SAP directly.
    Thanks
    Balla

    Dear,
    Yes, your right. The same asset we cant use more than once, but if the main assets is having sub assets then you can transfer the same to the main as well as to its sub assets.
    Ex:
    Main Asset-Car
    Sub asset-engine 0
    Sub asset-Steering 1
    So you can create number of sub assets to the main asset and at the time of transfer you can use the main as well as the sub assets.

  • Asset Transfer

    Hi All,
    We are Using T code ABUMN to transferring of existing asset and creating as new asset within company code to change of Cost center, but the existing asset has no value. The system issue below error message when posting,
    Retirement/transfer on asset XXXXX 0 takes place with no values
    Message no. AA396
    I couldn’t find any solution for existing no value asset transfer. Please suggest the ways to solve.
    Note: As best practice, we have grayed out cost center once asset master is created. So we cannot change directly in master.

    HI Abu,
    Since we want to transfer the asset from one business area to other business area, we have to remove the asset from business area where transfer happen and we have to show that asset in the history of receiver business area. So we cant transfer the asset with same number within the business area.
    There is one tab called Time-dependent data in master data there you can set the time intervals for Asset.It's mainly designed for your requirement like.
    When asset moved from one place to another place or another location you can set the time interval for that..
    For example:
    A asset belongs to ABC businessarea from 01/01/2008 to 30/06/2008
    When asset moved to DEF business area you have to set interval for 01/07/2008 to 31/12/9999
    Then that asset will be read undet DEF business area.
    Hope it'll clear your requirement.
    Thanks,
    Puja

  • Issue in Depreciation Adjustment while Asset Transfer

    Hi,
    We have some old legacy assets which is capitalized in 2010 and depreciating for the last 4 years, These old  assets contain the value of several different assets and the usefull life of the old asset is 50 years, Now we need to segregate these old asset to different new assets , my process contains
    1) Creating new assets with different asset class with different usefull life
    2) Transfer the respective value from the main asset to the new assets
    3) Adjustment of depreciation already posted.
    Here i am facing some issues regarding the asset transfer , anybody suggest which is the best way to transfer the asset acquisition value to new assets ?
    when i am using ABUMN to transfer the values , system posting depreciation value adjustment which is the alredy posted depreciation for the past 4 years with the usefull life as 50 years. Is there any methode to adjust these value ?
    If i am posting Asset transfer with F-02 (with negative posting) , system will transfer the net book value and start the depreiation calculation based on the usefull life of the new asset. Here system is not considering the depreciation already posted.
    Is it possible to make changes in the system where assets will consider the depreciation start date as 2010 (old asset depreciation start date), If i am manually changing the depreciation start date then system is calculating the depreciation start date as 1st period of the current year (because previous years are alredy closed),
    instead of 5 years usefull life ,system depreciated the values with 50 years, i need to adjust the posted depreciation and when i create a new asset with usefull life of 5 years i need to manage the asset as already 4 years usefull life is expired.
    Is there any solution  ?
    Regards
    San

    Hi Ajay,
    Case : We have an asset 1000, which contains a value of $ 100000, it was capitalizes in 2010 with usefull life of 50 years and past 4 years depreciating with 50 years usefull life, This is a legacy asset and contains the value of so mny different assets.
    Now we need to create different assetd with different asset class and contains different usefull life, We need to transfer the value from Asset 1000 to these new created assets, here my concern is about the depreciation already posted to the asset 1000,
    Assume my new assets value is $ 20000, i can transfer the value from asset 1000 to my new created asset. but here depreciation should be a problem because last 4 years depreciation is calculated as 20000 @ 50 years , but actual usefull life was 5 years.
    Is there any methode to adjust the already posted depreciation.
    Regards
    San
