Change first acquisition date of asset

Dear Gurus,
Is there any way to change the first acquisition date of an Asset. If yes, please tell me the procedure and the impacts
regards
Moderator: Please, avoid asking basic questions

Hi
the field "anla-zugdt" is only for automatic inputting when we run
first posting to asset. I am sorry there is no other workaround
to make it as the "input field". It is standard design.

First Aquisition date on Asset Master record

Hi,
Please can anyone help with how to change the first aquisition date on the Asset master.
The user had wrongly entered 31.12.2010 as the Asset Value date on the original acquisition posting and so the asset has 31.12.2010 as the first acquisition date.
The original acquisition document was posted 30.06.2010 and the intention was to start depreciation on 01.11.2010.
However, we are unable to do this as the system is assuming that the asset is not live in Asset accounting till the first aquisition date of 31.12.2010 .
As a way out, I also tried to do an intracompany transfer (ABUMN) to a new asset using a value date of 01.11.2010 but the system issues an error message "Posting not possible (Value date earlier than capitalization date)"
Please help!!!

Hi,
ANLA-ZUGDT, ANLA-ZUJHR and ANLA-AKTIV you can not change in the standard and it is not supported by SAP.
You have to create a small ABAP.
Please test it first on a testsystem.

Document date is earlier than acquisition date for asset

Client has an asset which they want to post an acquistion for as of 1/1/2011. They are in December of 2011. They first put an acquisition in with 12/31/2011 and then cancelled it, realizing they needed a docdate of 1/1/2011. When they try to redo the acquisition with a docdate of 1/1/2011 they get the error "Document date is earlier than acquisition date for asset xxxxx"
The capitalization date on the asset is 1/1/2011. I looked at the acquisition date (thorugh SQL) and it is "1899-12-30 00:00:00.000"
Does anyone know why it is preventing from posting?
(Posting dates allowed are 1/1/11-12/31/11 for period 12 of 2011 and the period is unlocked)
Alan

Hi
I do believe that the problem is in the capitalization date 12/31/2011
Even if you have cancellled the first acqusition , and the acquisition date has taken the dummy date that assets have when there are no acqusitions 1899-12-30 00:00:00.000
Still the capitalization date remains 12/31/2011
and this will deter any transactions earlier than 12/31/2011
My question is,
can you still edit the field capitalization date?

AS03 (wrong first acquisition date)

An asset was created with following data:
1.) "Capitalized on 31.05.2007"
2.) "First acquisition on 30.11.2007", should be 31.05.2007
3.) "Depreciation calculation start date 01.06.2007"
How can I correct this? What will be the effect of wrong first acquisition date?
FI document was already posted with "Asset val. date 30.11.2007".

crucial is the "asset value date" (field BZDAT)it should be 31.05.2007,
than first acquisition date is not important

Asset acquisition date (How to change?)

Hi all,
As per http://www.jt77.com/financials/finan-15236.html
Asset capitalization date = 1day of depreciation calculation
Asset acquisition date = day of first cost allocation to the asset
Asset value date = date of effect in asset account of a posting
From the above dates, I would like to have a try to give my understanding on them.
Let say I have acquire an asset through a PO -> GR -> IR on 15 Oct 2007.
If I set the Cap Date as on 01 Nov 2007, and Asset Value date as on 01 Dec 2007, does this mean that ...
Question 1:
My Asset depreciation will starts on Dec, with 2 months depreciation, which is Nov and Dec (because my Asset Cap Date is on 01 Nov 2007)?
Question 2:
What if I want to change the Asset acquisition date to, say 01 Nov 2007?
I tried AB08 to reverse the asset, and change the GR posting date (through MIGO), and these date affect asset value date only.
I tried also to reverse the IR (using MR8M) and re-post the IR using Miro, with different Invoice and Posting date, these date only affect the FI documents.
I tried AS02, and I can only change Cap date, and NOT the acquisition date.
Please help on this, and clarify the usage / importance of the acquisition date.
As per AS03 (wrong first acquisition date)
Andreas Mann said that crucial is the "asset value date" (field BZDAT)it should be 31.05.2007, than first acquisition date is not important

Capitalization Date= Date on which the asset will be capitalized
Acqusition Date= Date on which first transaction is done on the asset after creation. It cannot be changed once a value is posted to the asset
Asset Value Date is important to determine the Depreciation
Asset value Date determines the postings to the asset. You can set the configuration for default asset value date. It is the date with which user wants to post to the asset, i.e it can be Document Date, Posting Date, Capitalization Date, Goods Receipt date. Check the list in
Asset Accounting> Transactions> Specify How Default Asset Value Date is Determined
Ordinary Depreciation Start Date Date on which the system starts calculates and posts depreciation
Ordinary Depreciation Start Date can be determined by the system through Priod controls defined or entered manually by the user. If entered manually it surpass the system calculated date.

First delivery date change at the time of PGI

Dear Expert,

HOW TO CHANGE THE DATE.
give your valuable solution regarding this.
KInd regards

but after go to va02 it is not allowing to change the delivery date, but it can happen at any time as business needs this.
kindly resolve this issue with proper logic.

Wrong depreciation calcualtion when we change useful life of an asset

Hi,
We change the useful life of an asset during the middle of the year. The deprecaiton calculation is not effecting correctly for the remaining useful life of an asset.
We are using stright line method of depreciaion. I will appreciate if any post some tips what is wrong .
Example:
Current State:
Acquisition value: 300,000
Acquisition date: 1/1/08
Useful life: 3 years
NBV 12/31/08: 200,000
NBV 6/30/09: 150,000
New life: 2 years, starting 7/1/2009
Current methodology:
NBV at 12/31/08 divided by new remaining life as of the beginning of the year (2009) $200,000 / 12 months = $16,667
Depreciation expense in 7/31/09: $66,669 ([16,667 * 7 months = 116,669] minus depreciation at old method booked for first 6 months of 2009 [200,000/24 = 8,333 * 6 = $50,000]). $116,669 u2013 50,000 = $66,669
Monthly Depreciation expense between 8/31/09-12/31/09: $16,667 / month
Future State:
Requested methodology:
NBV at 6/30/09 divided by remaining life as of the date of the change: (150,000/6mos) $25,000
Can any one explain what is the issue

Hi,
By default, any change in depreciation parameters will recalculate depreciation from the beginning. If you want to change depreciation terms on different phases, you may need to introduce a depreciation key which changes percentage in multi-level method.

How to change the capitalization date

Hi ,
I carried out WBS to AUC settlement on 31.12.2009, due to which AUC cap. date becomes 31.12.2009. Now i want to change the cap date to 01.12.2009. How do i do it? Reversing the settlement using CJ88 can only change the first Acq date but not the cap date. Also cap date is not an editable option in AS02.
Reason for all this is that i want the cap date of fixed asset to be 01.12.2009.
Regards,
DP

Hi Srinu,
Thanks for your reply. Are there any implications of changing the cap date manually? Is it an advisable option or is it better to keep asset value date as 31.12.2009 and then post an unplanned dep for the asset.

DP

Change in Cost Center of Asset Master after capitalization of an asset

Dear SAP Gurus,
I would like to know Can we edit Asset Master Cost center data field after capitalization of asset.
I want to change Asset Cost center after acquisition of an asset during asset transfer location.
Thanks and regards,
VV

Hi ,
Yes. Time Dependant Tab > New Interval > Enter new CC.
Note: The change will only affect future Depreciation postings, no adjustment is made to Depr. that is already posted.
Kind regards

Change the cost center in asset master AS02

Dear Members,
I need to change the cc of an asset in the asset master, so I read the other discussions and followed the steps AS02 and time dependent, then create new interval. But the CC is locked it cant be modified. The validity of the CC is starting form year 1900 to 9999. Should I change the validity of CC both existing and new one using t-code KS01 first?
If yes, then what validity date should i put as i want to use both cc, since other expenses are posted to both cc.
Please help
Thanks
Jaidev

hi
you may go to asset master >> time dependent tab (AS02) and update new Cost center with date from. only thing is that you cost center should be valid and not locked.

Setting Lightroom's preview size to larger than screen resolution is guaranteed to slow things down. I have a dual monitor system whith Lightroom showing the loupe on one screen and the grid on the other. The screen sizes are 1920x1080 and 2560x1440. Following your practice for previews would bring my system to a crawl and I have an entry level workstation.All my previews are of standard 1024x768 in size. The only delays in viewing come when Lightroom is asked to display an image where there is no preview. Once the preview has been created, browsing is near instantaneous.
I beg to differ! The reason is that a preview can be used for any size, which is smaller than that of the preview. Scaling down a preview can be done with little or not loss in quality compared to getting the full resulution and scale that down. Scaling up is not possible.
In your case, you will not use the previews of 1024x768 at all for full screen display. Instead you will force L3 to create bigger previews the first time you open the photo. You could try this by generating the standard previews for new imported photos before you start browsing. Then try to browse. You will probably get the "Loading" message, which indicates that the preview was not used and another one with higher resolution will be made. Then try the same experiment, setting the size of the standard preview to 2048. If, and only if, the size of your display area is not more than 2048 pixels wide and you display a photo in lanscape orientation, you will be able to browse without delay after generating the standard previews.
If I understand your setup correctly, you display the photos in a window of 2560x1440 pixels. I suspect that only 1:1 previews could be used for that. I think Adobe should increase the maximum size of the previews to a value larger than 2048, so that you are not forced to use only the 1:1 previews.
I agree, that when the previews have been generated, browsing is near instantaneous.

Change in start date of tax depreciation not for posting in mid of year

Hi Experts,
Tax depreciation area is not for posting. The fiscal year is from Jan to Dec. I want to calculate tax depreciation from May 2011 based on Net Book Value of tax depreciation as on 30.04.2011. But once I change the start date of tax depreciation in asset master to 01.05.2011, the system ignores the previous depreciation so I am not getting the NBV of tax depreciation of 30.04.2011.
Is any setting is required to get this. I can not do changes in posting rules since this tax depreciation is not for posting any thing.
The fiscal year 2010 is closed and NBV of tax depreciation as on 31.12.2010 of one asset is 80000, If I change the start date of tax depreciation from 1.1.2011 then system correcly take NBV of 31.12.2010 for further depreciation calculation. But if i change the start date of depreciation in between of year the system is calculating depreciation based on NBV of 31.12.2010 but ignores the tax depreciation from 1.1.2011 to 30.04.2011, which I previously run using AFAB.
Need your assistance to know is it feasible to do this.
Thanks and Regards,
Harshad

Hi Harshad
The behaviour of the system is very much correct, it is designed to behave that way...
One, you should not have changed the dep start date....
two, NBV in SAP is always taken to be NBV @ the start of the year....
The best wayout I can suggest here is, if you are on EhP4 and EA-FIN active
a. Change the Dep Key in the asset... You can maintain Time Dependant Dep Terms in asset master i.e. Dep Key X from Jan-Apr and Dep Key Y from MAy onwards
b. This will however, calculate dep based on NBV at the start of the year, but based on new useful life
c. Considering your eg: The system is posting more depreciation i.e. 5333 instead of 5155.... So, calculate this amount outside the system and post a Manual Write up ABZU inorder to reduce the Dep and increase the NBV
Even if you are on not on EhP4, you can follow the same approach as above.... i.e.
a. Change the Dep Key in asset master.... This will throw up new dep figure, on the basis of New Useful life and NBV at the start of the year
b. Post a write up from ABZU....
No need to do Asset to asset transfer in my opinion
Only diff between EhP4 and Non EhP4 is that the differential depreciation would be lesser if you are on EhP4... i.e. instead of 5333 now, system may throw up depreciation amount of 5666.. So, you may need to post write up of 5666-5155
