Calculation of Depreciation on Sub Number.

Hi,
Pl. provide your valuable remarks for the below 2 points.
1. What is sub number? In which cases we should use this.
2. In cases of heavy repairs & maintenance of assets, when amount will be capitalized, whether it will be treated as a separate asset or sub number.
As I have tried, the Sub-Asset calculate depreciation from the date of capitalisation of Main Asset rather than calculating the depreciation from the date when it is actualy capitalised because thereis no option to change the any field in Depreciation Area when creating Asset Sub-No. vide T-Code AS11.
Thanks
Deb

Hi,
Go to below path
SPRO->IMG->FA->AA->MASTER DATA->SCREEN LAYOUT->Define Screen Layout for Asset Master Data
Choose Define Screen Layout for Asset Master Data
Select your screen layout rule, which is assigned to your asset's asset class.
Double click on ligical field groups, and then select 2 Posting information and double click on field group rules
There for field group 10. capitalisation date deselect check box for mn no and select check boxes for SbNo and Copy.
SAVE
And now go to transaction AO21 and select screen layout 1000 and double click on field group rules and there for FG 03 (ord dep start date)  deselect check box for mn no and select check boxes for SbNo and Copy.
This will resolve your issue.
Thanks,

  • Creation of Asset with Sub-number

    Hi Gurus,
    Would like to ask for your expert advice regarding the creation of Asset using Sub-numbers. 
    We have seversal assets where expenses and depreciation will be divided into different cost centers. We are planning to use asset subnumber for easier monitoring of related assets but we are a little bit undecided because we do not know if there are any disadvantages of using asset sub numbers.
    Is it advisable to use asset sub-number? What are the things that we need to consider if in case we will use asset subnumber in creating our assets.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi Madhu,
    I tried to create an asset in AS01 and afterwards create subnumbers ( Subnumbers 1-3 ) for that asset in AS11. But it seems that I cannot edit the field of the assets with subnumbers. It copies the same data as that of the one created in AS01  ( subnumber 0 ).
    I also tried to run depreciation in AFAB but only the main asset was depreciated. The sub assets were not depreciated.
    Kindly advise the steps to correctly execute this.
    Thanks,

  • How to Use Same Asset Number with Different Sub-number

    Hi
    We want to sell some assets and buy them back on lease. We want to use same Asset number with different sub-number under the same company code. This new asset will be under different Depreciation Area (Statistical).
    We use external numbes for assets . And same asset number range is used by all compnay codes.
    Please suggest whether this is possible & how.
    With Regards,

    Hi,
    Go to field status for asset master data section and change the field status to optional for field Deactivation date, then follow the below steps.
    You can create an sub asset number to an asset, which is already deactivated by retirement as like normal sub asset creation with AS11.(While creating sub number, you need to remove cap date and deactivate dcate field manually from asset master)
    With this you can get new asset number as same as your old retired asset main number and but sub number will be different.
    To post to diff dep area, other than 01, then you first create an acq transaction type, which will post only to specific areas and then use the new asset number in ABSO to post acq with your custom TTY.
    I have tested and found working well in my system............Try now in your test client

  • Advantage/ disadvantage Asset sub number & asset super number

    Hello,
    I do not really understand what are the advantages from the asset sub number compare to the asset super number.
    The only point for me is that a sub-number asset can inherit some informations from the principal asset.
    For me there is no difference for example for the depreciation.
    Can someone help me?
    Thank you very much
    Cécile

    Hi Cécile,
    The purpose of the Asset Super number is to group together assets that are not necessarily related to each other the same way as sub assets are normally related to its parent asset.  As an example if you have power grid with several distribution centers and even plants you would not define that as sub assets to a parent asset called power grid.  However you might want to be able to look at them together and that is when you would create a super asset called power grid 1 and classify all the assets belonging to the grid as such's.
    Hope this clarifies this a bit better.
    cheers,

  • Calculation of depreciation and interest for a particular asset class

    Hi,
    I have a problem with the calculation of depreciation and interest for a particular asset class. The assets are financial leases. The depreciation key defined is LEAS. The following are the attributes of this key:
    Dep/int             phase     base met dec-bal prd cont mult lvl chn ov
    Ord.depreciation     1     0011     001     006     001        5
    Ord.depreciation     2     0002     001     003     003
    Interest             1     0028     001     003     010
    An example of an asset is:
    Aquisition value: 1041552.71 (as migrated on 01.04.2007)
    Ordinary dep already posted: 56243.88
    Net book value: 985308.83
    Scrap Value:729086.90
    Useful life: 50 years
    Expired useful life: 9 years 1 month
    Remaining useful life: 40 years 11 months.
    Depreciation start date: 28.03.1998
    Interest calculation start date:30.03.1997
    Depreciation calculated by the system:6261.83
    Interest calculated in the year:15682.68
    I'm not able to undersatnd on what basis the system calculated the interest. I will be thankful if anyone can help me resolve this. An early reply will be greatly appreciated as I'm facing major problems due to this issue.

    Hi Mahesh,
    As per my analysis of the case the interest rates are as under
    Acq. Year                                                    Int.Percent
    9999     4          01     10.%
    9999     7          01     5.%
    9999     25          01     2.5%
    9999     999     12     01     2.5%
    As per this the Acquisition value less the Scrap Value Rs.312,465.00 @ 2.5% p.a will be Rs. 7811.64.
    Based on the above you analyse for which period interest is calculated.
    Hope it will help.

  • Automatic creation of asset sub number in order

    Hi  Guruz,
    i have an urgent issue regarding asset topic  and sub number.
    my issue is my client purchased 100 computer sets. Each computer set  has an unique asset number. now we are using multiple account assignment concept. Earlier my client use to purchase 100 computers by including 100 line items in the purchase order in item overview  each having an asset number(that belongs to a particular asset class which is in turn assigned to one G/L account). So we can see that it is a very lengthy job. Instead my client wants that they should enter only one line item containing the asset number in the item overview of the PO.
    At present we are using multiple account assignment as we are creating the asset sub number under one main asset.
    With this we are able to prevent entering 100 line items in the item overview but we are entering the 100 sub number data in item details of the PO.
    item overview look out:
    Ex: asset no: 100268           quantity -100       price- 20000
    item detail look out:
    quantity           asset         sub number
    1                       100268          1
    1                      100268            2.....
    similarly upto 100......
    THis is done in account assignment tab of PO.
    REQUIREMENT:
    when i am giving asset number 100268  sysytem should automatically give/propose 100 sub number as we have defined 100 sub number in as11 for that asset number. I.e: when we are putting asset number 100268 in the item overview it should reflect 100 quantities in item detail.
    is it possible???
    pl discuss...
    in the sub item field the asset number 100268 will automatically divide into 100 sub numbers automatically.

    Hi,
    This is unfortunately not possible with standards but you may try using Badi ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST => PROCESS_ACCOUNT.

  • Calculation of Depreciation for Tax for India

    Hi
    In India, there is a requirement that the Depreciation for Income Tax should be calculated based on the date of Acquisition. If an asset has been acquired before or on completion of 180 days of a Financial Year, than the calculation of Depreciation is allowed for full year. If the asset has been acquired after 180 days , depreciation is allowed only for 180 days. Hence for an asset acquired on 25/09/2009, system should allow calculation of depreciation from 01/04/2009, assuming that the fiscal year starts from 01/04/2009 and ends on 31/03/2009. However, if the asset is acquired on 07/10/2009, the system should allow depreciation from 01/10/2009. Sap has delivered standard depreciation keys for the same in reference chart of depreciation for India 0IN.
    But if the asset has been acquired on 01/10/2009, still the asset has to be depreciated from 01/04/2009, since the asset has been acquired for less than 180 days into the fiscal year. The system is working fine for asset capitalized on 25/09/2009 and 07/10/2009. But we are not able to map the same if asset is capitalized on 01/10/2009 and 02/10/2009. For these two dates, the depreciation should start from 01/04/2009.
    I have checked the period control setting and calender assignments and everything seems to be in place. How can we tackle the issue?
    Regards
    Sanil K Bhandari

    Hi
    The same has been resolved.I Created a new assignment in Period Control IT for my fiscal year variant. For month 10, i added a new line item with no of days as 2 in addition to no of days as 31 for month 10.

  • Calculation of Depreciation based on Remianing Useful Life

    Hi
    I have a scenario in which depreciation percentage should be derived based on remaining useful life and it should remain same through out the remaining useful life.
    For eg,
    Take over date = 30.11.2010
    Acquisition Date= 01.04.2009
    Acquisition Amount = INR 200000
    Depreciation Till 30.11.2010 = 70000 INR
    Net Book Value as of 30.11.2010 = INR 130000
    Total Useful Life = 4 Years or 48 months
    Expired Useful Life = 1 year 9 months or 21 months
    Remaining useful life = 27 months
    Required Depreciation Per Month = 130000/27=4815
    Derived Percentage = 4815/130000*100=3.71%
    I have created a Base Method for calculation for Depreciation with Depreciation Method as "% from Remaining Life calculated from Depreciation Conversion Date". In Multilevel methods, I have assigned the Base Method as 24, Net Book Value
    and maintained the check box for Remaining useful life.
    However, the system is not calculating the  rate as expected.
    Regards
    Sanil Bhandari

    Hi Sanil
    Have you done any settings in OAYF - recalculate dep for previous years (IMG> AA > Asset Data Transfer > Parameters for Data Transfer > Options)
    For current year, it always does produce some difference due to rounding off, which should not be a big amount

  • Calculation of Depreciation on pro rata basis

    Hi,
    i had posted aquistion of asset on 1.1.2008. and a subsquent asset aquisition on 1.4.2008 the system is calculation depreciation for the new aquisition from 1.4.2008 but the depreciation calculated is for the full year i.e. the date of original capitalization of the asset.
    Can any one suggest a solution so that the system calculates the depreciation from 1.4.2008 and not from 1.1.2008.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Praveen.

    Hi Ramesh,
    i did try the period control, this only controls the start date for calculation of depreciation. The system calculates depreciation from the date of original capitalization date  and not the susequent acquisitions date, and it posts from the start date mentioned in period control.

  • Asset Sub Number Conversion

    Hi Expert,
    I have a question here and hope experts can give some Light.
    We have asset main number with asset number sub number in the legacy system. When we migrate to SAP, I'll also need to create the Asset Main Number (AS91) and following with Asset Sub Number for it (AS94).
    The problem is, how could I actually link the asset sub number with the relevant main number for data conversion as the main asset must always be created first before I can load asset sub-number.
    What is the best approach to use?
    Please help. Thanks.

    Hello Louis Yale
    You first create the main Asset number with T-code AS91
    Once that is done you then create Asset sub number with reference to main Asset number . T-code AS94.
    When you start creating Asset sub number on the main screen you will need to input main asset number and company code. This links your asset sub number to main asset number.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks

  • Asset Sub Number with Letter

    Dear Expert
    Is it possible to define asset sub number using letter? e.g 1000000001 A001
    Thanks and Regards,
    YL

    Hi YL,
    The sub number field is four numeric character field. Hence you cannot use alphabets.
    However in Tcode OAOA (Asset class), if you tick the checkbox "EXTERNAL SUB NUMBER", you can use your own sub number for the asset.
    Please let me know if it helps.

  • Asset sub number assigned to different G/L account

    Dear Guruz,
    i have an issue where i am maintaing asset. Ex: computer sets. Now each computer is an asset having unique asset number. So when i am making a PO for having 100 computer sets we have to enter 100 times different asset number. Instead we are using asset sub  number. Ex: Asset no would be 100217. The sub number will be 1, 2, 3, 4.... upto 100. Now concept of multiple account assignment is also coming.  through asset class we are able to map the G/L accounts automatically. But if i use the sub number concept in this case the G/L account will be same for all of them.
    Is there any ways to provide different g/L account to the sub number of the asset??
    As far as my knowledge is concerned it is not possible as the class is same for all the asset sub group also but i am not experienced enough to confirm it.
    PL discuss...

    Hi
    As you have maintained Account assignement category Q that is for Projects  - WBS elements, so any difference is being posted to that WBS element only.
    If you donot want to post to a WBS element , then you need to creataea substitution ule in FI so that these get posted into a Costs center.
    Please get in touch with your FI consultant & an ABAPEr to include the Substitution logic

  • Define asset sub number

    Dear Expert,
    Is there a way to determine asset sub-number by using external numbering ?
    e.g. I want to set asset sub-number that I want to use is '99'
    Kindly need your help.
    Thanks and Regards,
    YL

    Hi:
            No it is not possible to do so. Number range for sub assets depends on main asset ,if main asset is given an external number range in AS08,still then sub asset will be created with reference to the main asset number. Hence you can meet your purpose only by defining a number internal or external in AS08 which starts with 99 , now your sub assets will be created with 99-1 number range.
