Change to cost center in time dependent data. Can I rerun depreciation YTD?

I need to change the cost center in October (Period 10) Period 9 and prior are already closed. I thought that since I put the Interval for the new cost center as 1/1/11 that it might do and adjustment in October reversing the depreciation posted for the old cost center and put the YTD depreciation in the new cost center, but it did not. it only posted the current month depreciation to the new cost center. Is there any way to do this? Thank you very much.

Hi. Thanks for your reply. I went into the ABAA screen, but I am afraid to process this transaction because I do not understand what is going to happen. I cannot find any documentation that explains this. I have already changed the cost center on the asset and run depreciation. It posted the current month depreciation to the new cost center, but it did not make a correction to the prior periods. I am not creating a new asset, i just want to reclass the prior months depreciation (in the current year) to the new cost center. In case it will help I provide some details:
Asset acquired 5/1/11 Depreciation posted to Cost Center A From May - Sept $1,796.06 per month x 5 = $8,980.30
Before posting Oct depreciation, I went to Master Data - Time Dependent - and changed the cost center as of 1/1/11. So I now have two intervals: From 1/1/1900-Cost Center A, and From 1/1/11 - Cost Center B. I then ran the regular depreciation for Oct. It posted Oct Depreciation of $1,796.06 to the new Cost Center-Cost Center B. My total YTD depreciation is now $10,776.36, but it is split between two cost centers. I need to move the depreciation from Cost Center A to Cost Center B for the prior months. If it was a Journal Entry, I would do it as follows in the month of October, so my YTD numbers would be correct.
Debit Depreciation Cost Center B $8,980.30
Credit Depreciation Cost Center A $8,980.30
Then when I run my October numbers it would show zero depreciation in Cost Center A Year To Date (and negative 8,980.30 in month of October)
If i follow the steps you propose, what would be the result? Thanks so much!

Issue making Cost Center Hierarchy Time Dependent

Hi,
We have three hierarchies on top of cost center and cost center was not time-dependent. There is a new requirement to make one of the hierarchies time dependent. To faclitate it, I changed the hierarchy property in cost center infoobject to "Hierarchy structure is time-dependent" and then loaded the hierarchy.It took the validity dates of 1.1.1000 to 31.12.999. A costcenter was changed from one node to another in ECC and was extracted into BI. As time-dependency is set, I thought that node will have two entries now one with validity period 1.1.1000 to 30.10.2009 and another with 31.10.2009 to 31.12.999. But instead the hierarchy was overwritten and only the latest change is refelcted.
Can someone please help in figuring out the issue. Should some change be done in ECC for time-dependency to reflect.
Thanks
Achyuta

Hey Achyuta,
The hierarchy needs to be time dependent in the source system and then the datasource for the time dependent hierarchy would then need to be replicated again. You'll know if it's right after the replication if you view the datasource in BW and the Data is Time Dependent check box is checked on the General Info Tab. Once the datasource is time-dependent, loads should populate the DateTo and DateFrom as you expect. Consult your R/3 expert if you need help over on the source system side.
Peace,
Dan Glick

Change of time dependent data

Hi Experts,
I have a cocode,for which BA financial statements are activated and also cross co code cost accounting is activated.
we are using dep area 31 .
for this company code time independent organisational units is activated.
the issue:
When i change the Cost center in the master data,a new doc is created.but when i see in asset explorer and click on a transaction to see the doc i found LC2 currency(2nd local currency) is not updating.
other info:
the two cost centers(old and new) were assigned the same co code.cost center currency is sa me as co code currency.
exchange rates were maintained.when i see in the header data of teh doc i can see teh translation rate also.
what could be the reasons for not updating the LC2 column.

Hi,
Is area 31 set up for the 2nd local currency? We need to have a depreciation area set up for 2nd local currency.
Thanks

Restriction of Time-dependent data (Cost Center) according to a specific role

Dear experts,
Has some one of you implemented a functionality to restrict Time-dependent data (for example, Cost Center) edition, according to a specific role assigned to an End user?
I imagine it is possible, but we should develop an User-exit in order to get this goal.
Let your comments here if possible, so that I can argue with my End user. I will try to give you points if you help me with this query.
Thanks & Kind Regards,
Daniel.

Hello All!
We have talked to Authorizations specialist and he indicated a customizing transaction in FI-AA module called ANSICHT (IMG -> Financial Accounting -> Asset Accounting -> Preparing for Production Startup -> Authorization Management -> Process Asset Views). In this customizing, it is possible to edit an existing asset view and turn on/off fields according to the company needs.
Afterwards, you should request some adjustment in the roles that contain the A_A_VIEW authorization object.
I am considering this question as "assumed answered'.

Change cost center in asset master data

Dear All,
When I go to change cost center in asset master data by transaction code AS02 it does show gray cost center field and system does not allow to change. I also tried to use time dependent option but field was still gray. Kindly help me in this regard,
Regards,
Uddin

Hi,
check the accounting object customizing in IMG FI-AA. At the step where you activate the accounting objects you can set a flag "balance sheet relevant" for the accounting objects. If this is checked, then you will not be allowed to change this accounting object in the asset master record after the first posting to the asset.

How do I change Resource Cost Center only and retain historical cost center data?

How would a Project Server Admin accommodate changes in the resource's cost center itself?
For example, Ken (timesheet submitter) records Feb time in cost center C1, but then transfers to a new team, which is in cost center C2 on Mar 1st.
When I change his cost center at the resource level, reporting indicates all of his previous C1 time as a resource under the C2 cost center, and all of his C1 time looks like it's incorrectly in C2.
I am thinking about adding custom resource fields to track these changes, but it seems like a lot of extra work, if something already exists that I can use.
Thanks,
Marty

Marty,
AFAIK, there is no way to do this OOB as Resource Fields are not 'time-phased'.
A 'possible' alternative, like you mentioned, could be be to use custom fields to track, the change (like Effective Date, Old Cost Center), and then somehow write a query to consider the old cost center between the dates. I have not tried this personally,
just a thought.

How to change cost center in asset master data through mass changes

Hi sap gurus,
Hi i have 20 assets i have to change the cost center through mass changes provide the solution.
regards,
ramanjaneyulu.

Hi,
For 20 assets it won't be useful to write a CATT or LSMW. So, either enter it manually or you could correct directly in the tables (ANLZ), though it's generally not recommended.

Anyway, you have another workaround to change the cost center using LSMW's batch input recording method.

Change of Cost center for Assets --- AS02

Hi,
I have one asset 1234. for that Already we closed the year 2008.
In the Asset master we are using Cost Center -- ABCD, but from 2009.04.01 m i want to change the Cost Center -- XYZ. For that i tried to change the cost center in following way;
1. In AS02-- Time independent data-- i enter the new interval effective from 2009.04.01 then i was saving the asset master,
But while saving one error Msg is coming
"Automatic Transfer is not Possible for Asset 1234. "
Details of SAP message :
"   Automatic transfer is not possible for asset E8 840200000066-0
    Message no. AMOC 001
Diagnosis
    You changed assignments to organizational units for asset E8
    840200000066-0. The indicator for 'time-independent organizational
    units' is set for this company code in Asset Accounting Customizin
    This means that the system is supposed to create a transfer docume
    automatically.
    However, asset E8 840200000066-0 manages one of the following:
    o   Open items
    o   Investment measures
    o   Down payments
    Therefore, the system could NOT automatically create a transfer document. "
So please tell me , How can i change the Cost center in Asset Master.
Sachin

We have many company codes and all company codes have same configuration and All company code have time independent settings.So why this message is only coming for this asset class and in this company codes only. I tried in other company codes with same asset class, but its working, No error message is coming.

Implication of changing the Cost center during posting

Hi all,
Due to business reasons, we have unchecked the 'Agree' indicator in the Acct assignment configuration for Asset accounting. Hence, cost center becomes editable during document posting.
We want the cost center to be editable only for ABF1 t-code and for other asset t-codes like acquistion, retirement, scrapping, transfer etc, we want to derieve the cost center from the master data.
Given the situation, I request experts' input on 2 questions -
1. Is it possible to have the cost center editable only in ABF1 and disabled in other AA transactions?
2. If cost center is editable in all the t-codes, what is the implication if the cost center is mismatched with the data available in the master record?
Please provide your inputs.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
The client has many plants, of which only few are running in SAP and the rest non-SAP.
Whenever there is transfer of asset from non-sap plant to SAP implemented plants, we handle the situation as below in the receiver plant-
1. Treat the asset transfer as legacy asset transfer and create asset master record through AS91. Maintain the cummulative acq value and Cummu depn value till the last period in master data.
2. As legacy transfer is not real time integrated with FI, we are doing ABF1 posting to pass manual JV to record APC and Acc depn. posting. At this instance, we want the cost center to be manually keyed in. This is because, we have yet another situation, where we need to have the net book value of the asset at cost center level for our allocation cycles. Hence,
3. But, for other normal AA transactions, it shd automatically derieve from asset master.
Request your suggestion on achieving the above requirement.
Regards,
Sridevi

Time dependent data load to BW using Fixed Time Interval selection

Hi,
I'm facing a problem in extracting time-dependent master data to BW. I would really appreciate if anyone can help in this regard.
We have a table in R/3 which has time-dependent data. For example, for a single OBJID we could have multiple records with different BEGDA/ENDDA and different attributes. When we try to load this data into BW InfoObject, we see a time-dependent data selection in update tab of infopackage. We need to select BEGDA/ENDDA in datasource since otherwise during loads we would get a "DUPLICATE RECORDS" load error in BW.
The problem is when we enter a Fixed-time interval Start Data and End Date in the InfoPackage, only the records with that StartDate and EndDate are loaded. Ideally I would want to see all the records whose BEGDA/ENDDA falls in the range of StartDate and EndDate.
I tried modifying the ROOSFIELD table for the data source. I made the BEGDA SELOPTS as GE(16) and ENNDA SELOPTS as LE(64). But still it doesn't seem to work. I checked if the change to ROOSFIELD has any affect in RSA3. Unless we give a range for BEGDA it doesn't seem to behave as expected. Could someone let me know how I can load all records to BW whose BEGDA/ENDDA fall in the range of StarteDate and EndDate.
Thanks,
Anil.

Anil,
If you are using a custom dataSource, make sure the dataSource fields for begda and ennda are labeled "datefrom" and "dateto".
