Changing Account Determination in Asset Master

Hi,
We had a Asset class for which the Asset Determination was modified, But the New account determination was not updated for the existing Assets. Is there any way we can update the Account Determination for existing assets,  I have around 10,000 Assets and I am looking for options other than creating New Assets and transffering the balance.
Regards,
Raj

Hi Raj,
Please note that account determination is configured at the asset class level in the T-Code AO90.  There is no separate account determination configured for asset master.
When you change the account determination at the asset class level, it will automatically get affected to all existing asset masters.  Yes, if your question to transfer all the balance from old GL account to new GL account, try following procedures.
1) Deactivate reconciliation settings thru T-Code OAMK.
2) Transfer all balances from old GL account to New GL account thru FB01/FB50.
3) Activate reconciliation settings thru OAMK
Hope this helps
Best Regards,
Madhu

  • 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,

    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 to change cost center in Asset Master record ?

    Hi SAP Gurus,
    My client is asking me to change cost centers in Asset Master records using LSMW. Currently, the field cost center is in display mode. In order to change the cost center, the field cost center must be in change mode while recording in LSMW. I have changed screen layout rule for Asset Master data. I have selected radio button "Optional" for cost center in screen layout for Asset Master data. But still cost center field is in display mode in Asset Master record. It must be changeable.
    Please suggest me how I can resolve the issue.

    Hi Saravana,
    We can change the cost center for AuC Investment measure at WBS element level. For that purpose we need to go to AuC Investment measure Asset master record and check WBS element under Origin Tab. Double click on WBSE and then check the cost center under Assignment tab. And also check the cost center in Asset master record for the same. Now you can go to T.Code CJ12 (Change WBS Element) and change the cost center for the same. Once you make changes system automatically change the cost center in asset master record for the same.
    Note: - Now you have to identify all the AuC Investment measure Assets and the WBS Element for the same. Then change the cost center in WBS Element record. And the corresponding changes will be done in relevant Asset master record automatically.
    But before making the change please check with the PS/PM consultant regarding changes in WBS element. Means where it will effect?
    With Regards

  • Substitution of Account Assignment from Asset Master Data

    Hi Gurus,
    System is not picking up cost center master data in FI document posting in the following scenario:
    Posting in Asset through a transaction type which only post to non leading ledger, cost center is not getting populated in the FI document posted.
    For the above issue, I have tried creating a substitution rule with a user exit, but system is not calling this substitution at all - Possible reason being the posting only in loacal ledger and fuction many not available for substituion to work in this situation. I may be wrong but looking at the system behaviour it is not calling the substition at all. I had activated total trace of the substitution but no substitution was called in this case.
    In view of the about your expert advise is needed. I try checking BTE available for such situation but did not have any success yet. Any brilliant idea is welcome.
    Thanks in advance for your help!!!

    hi Murlidhar Khatri ,
    we use cost center assignment in our country, also. please use sap note 940758. when you use that sap note, you will send deppreciation costs to cost center which asset is assgined in master data.
    sap note 940758:
    In Asset Management it is only possible to enter one depreciation account for each asset class. However, depreciation should be posted to different functional accounts for the same asset class depending on the category of the cost center on the master data of the asset.
    the link is :

  • MR11- Change Account determinations

    It ain't possible James, The Inventory acct, andt eh GR/IR acct are used during MR11.
    If you want to post it to the manufactuyring acct.. you are talking about a custom development here, which is not suggested. I.e a general entry would have to be created, once  the ENTIRE MR11 process is complete and you can debit the Manufacturing acct, while crediting the Inventory acct.. This is just an Idea.
    This way you do not interfere with the standard SAP process. Moreover you do not have any user exits for MR11.

  • Problem in changing business area in asset master record - urgent

    I am facing this problem while trying to change the cost center of an asset to another cost center belonging to a different business area.  We are on ECC 6.0. 
    I have activated time independent management of organizational units for my company code, and business area and cost center field is becoming editable.  But when I try to change the cost center, the system asks whether I want to overwrite existing time dependent data.  When I click "No", it asks to enter the validity start date for the new cost center.
    Here is where the problem comes.  When I try to save the asset, the system tries to generate a FI posting, and cannot find the profit center (made mandatory in document splitting).
    I have checked in debugging (in a separate program used for substitution) that initially prctr field for bseg is populated, but in spite of that while posting the document, the system cannot determine the profit center.
    If any one has faced this problem and knows the solution, kindly help.

    Pls check if you have maintained profit centers under General Ledger Accounting (New) > Master Data> Profit Center--> Assign Default Profit Center to Accounts

  • 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.

  • GR/IR Clearing Account for Material & Asset

    Hi,
    We want to maintain different GR/IR Clearing Account for Materials & Assets.
    Pls. guide.
    Regards,

    Hi
    In case of asset - we define account determination in asset master which is like stock account for material. But if you use purchase order then for asset you use account assignment category as A - it means it is like account assigned purchase order. So all goods reciept credit on these POs will go to GR/IR account created without valuation class. Same time if you donot maintain service masters then goods receipt will go to same account (no valuation class). So either you need to define service materials or use same account for both.
    Thanks

  • Change the Account Determination In As22

    Dear Friend's
                 The Asset Class account determination is wrongly tagged but some transaction value are made. So I want to change the Account determination in OAOA transaction code. For this transaction should not allow to change the Account determination.
    Kindly to give the advice to change the Account Determination for asset class.
    Thanks
    Saravanan

    Hi,
    As per best practice is concerned, you are supposed to create a new asset class and create a new asset master and transfer wrong asset to new asset using ABUMN.
    Create your new asset class with correct account determination key.
    Thanks,

  • Account determination w/o material master

    how the automatic account determination is done without using the material master ( material type) ? I mean we are not using material master but wants to user the auto matic account determination ?
    Wheather it possible or not?

    Dear,
    Account determination without material master happens when you perform transactions for the following:
    1) Goods receipt
    2) Goods Issue
    3) Transfer posting
    4) Account maintenence
    5) Prive changes
    6) Invoice verifications.
    So, for the aforesaid account determination without material master happens at:
    1) Organization Level: When doing Goods receipt, you have to select purchasing orgaization, plant which is linked to company code, which in turn linked to respective chart of account (INT). So based on the respective G/L account defined or configured in FICO respective G/L a/cfor debit and G/L A/c for credit will be identified by the system.
    2) Business Transactions: When you perform the above said transactions, you have to mention the movement type which is configured in inventory management module. Each transactions or movement type has been asigned a 3 digit number called 101 for GR w.r.t PO. based on this movement type system will select respective tranaction key through Value string i.e: WE01. which is the combination of transactions keys for that particular transactions. Ex: BSX for inventory posting, GR/IR for clearing account which are the key defined for GR w.r.t PO. So system identifies the particular G/lAccount for debit and credit based on define or configured value string which in turn linked to account groping code w.r.t Valuation grouping code. So to summarizise Mvt type - > value string -> transaction key -> G/l A.c for debit or G/l A.c for credit.
    3) Material: When you are posting the respective tranaction you need to select the material which is linked to valuation class in material master account view no 1. based on this valuation class system will identified the particular valuation level i.e: Company code or Plant. but as defined or recommended by SAP standard you need to define valuation level at plant level. Based on the valuation level linked at plant which in turn is linked to the valuation gruoping code( which is defined as grouping of similar palnt to identifiy the particluar g/l account is known as VGO). So when the system identifies the particular VGO through G/l acount for debit and credit will be identified by the system through transaction key configured in the SAP system.
    Also, there are some cases where you don't know the material code, but you need to mention material type. At that point of time system identifies the account detemination based on material type through valuation class linked by Account Catergory Refernce. You may link many material types to single ACR which in trun you may link many valuation class to single ACR.
    This is how, automatic account determination has been configured in SAP system. 
    The other facrors which influences Automatic account determination are:
    a) Valuation Level: Different plant but same material
    b) Matarial: Different material but same plant
    c) Bussines transctions and
    d) Movement types.
    Hope this Gyan from my end should clarify you thoughts on account determination.
    Note: Appropriate points allocated, if convined would be highly appericated.

    at that time has new depreciation posting done for new cost center or remain as it is ???
    Exact scenario is like this
    1) Depreciation posting was complated for period 1/2007
    2) now change cost center which effective date is 1/1/2007 in asset master
    3) now rerun of depreciation posting
    The depreciation posting with new cost center does not created
    Please reply me as soon as possible
    Thanks in advance
    Paresh Jivani

    Hi Jivani,
    The when you have already executed depreciation run for the assets, system will not allow the re-run that as it affect FI posting.
    In your case, you case distreibute your depreciation cost to new cost center and next month run will take care if you have changed the cost center.
