By end of 2007, we have sold all the assets in profit center 494, so we have retired the assets. The depreciation on account 12150010 for profit center 494 0.75 still remained on account. Could any one let us know how to clear this balance.

Stop Depreciation of an Asset

Hi Gurus,
We have an asset that was capitalized last March 2011with useful life of 3years. To be specific, the item is a television set.
Goods receipt was transacted last March for this asset with ttype 120 with an entry of Dr. Asset and Cr. GR/IR Clearing Account.
2 months of depreciation were already posted last April and May 2011.
The problem is that the department head told our accounting dept that this item should not be treated as an asset and should be charged to a personal expense.
Kindly advise on how we can stop the depreciation this month June and the succeeding months. Pls advise also on how can we correct the previous postings that were already made on this asset (GR and depreciation) given that the books for the previous months were already closed.
Thanks,
Ellicec

Dear:
Please check if reversal of the Past Depreciation(posted) is possible through Write-Up ABZU - Miscellaneous is the transaction used for Write-Up of past depreciation.
Transaction effects will be like
Accumulated Dep A/C Debit
Deprecation exp a/c A/C Credit
For more info please check link

OASV can give credit to Acc dep posted for an asset class but not to a particular asset.

Where we have to open and close posting periods in asset accounting

hi sap gurus
can anybody give where we have to open and close posting periods in asset accounting
thank you
venkatareddy

Hi Venkatareddy,
You make specifications for fiscal years and posting periods in the SAP R/3 System in Customizing for Financial Accounting. This is done in the fiscal year variant in the global parameters of the company code. These settings are, in general, also binding for Asset Accounting. The depreciation periods in Asset Accounting then correspond to the posting periods in Financial Accounting.<b> It is usually not necessary to create a separate fiscal year variant for Asset Accounting.</b>
The period control in the depreciation key determines the start and end of depreciation when asset transactions are posted . The period control determines the relationship between the calendar period in which the asset transaction is posted and the depreciation period.
These calendar periods are independent of the posting periods in Financial Accounting. The only restriction is that the beginning of the first calendar period and the end of the last calendar period defined in a period control have to match the start date and final date of the fiscal year in Financial Accounting.
Kindly let me know if this useful for you

Re : How to reverse Depreciation documents for assets

Any body please tell me. How to reverse the Depreciation documents for Asset accounting.

Hello Ramu,
Asset transactions have to be reversed using the reversal transaction of the application in which the original transaction was posted (for example, invoice receipt). You automatically go to the appropriate reversal transaction when you choose Postings-> Reverse document.
In addition to the reversal transactions for documents created in Asset Accounting, there are also the following reversal transactions in the applications integrated with FI-AA:
Reversal of external acquisition with vendor (Accounts Payable)
Reversal of acquisition with purchase order reference (goods/invoice receipt)
Reversal of retirement with customer (Accounts Receivable)
Procedure
Choose Postings ® Reverse document ® Other asset document.
Enter the asset.
Press Enter
Select the document to be reversed.
Choose the Reverse function.
Below mentioned is the procedure for reversing Settlement of an Asset Under Construction
Choose Postings->Reverse document->Cap. asset u. const.
Enter the asset under construction that was settled.
Press Enter
The system then reverses all documents that were posted during the last settlement.
If you want to reverse a settlement that was posted before the most recent one, you first have to reverse all the settlements, which were posted after the one you want, in chronological order.
You cannot use this transaction to reverse the settlement of assets under construction that were only managed for cost accounting.
Reward points if i had been of help to you.

FICO : Asset Accounting - Depreciation Run Issue

Dear Friends,
I have an issue in asset accounting.
Let me explain the actual background of this issue.
1. I created a new company code(2000) by copying the existing one(1000 along with the closed year 2009
2. After that when i was trying to post acquisition for an asset i got the below error
You cannot post to asset in company code 2000 fiscal year 2011
3. Then i closed the year 2010 and opened 2011, it allowed me to post in the month of june
4. Now i am trying to run the depreciation for june, its giving the below error.
According to posting cycle, you should post period 001 next
5. What could be the reason for this error , is it the correct procedure what i am doing it now?
Please help if someone has an idea about that
Thanks ,
Perumal.

Hi,
You can get the solution if you double click the error message.
Please note that depreciation of current month can only be posted if the depreciation dycles till the previous month is completed. Coming to your case, you have opened the year 2011 and trying to post depreciation for period 6. You need to run the depreciation cycles from period 1 to 5 before trying to post for period 6.

Asset Accounting: Lineal Depreciation

Hey!
I have implanted the module of Asset Accounting. We have defined a lineal depreciation Key for some assets. But when we enter to the Asset explorer (AW01N), we can see that we have different values for each posting period (the posting periods are defined in months). I think this is because each month have diferente days so Sap calculate different values. We think that SAP is considering if the month has 31 days or 30 days.
I want the depreciation to be calculated with the same value each month. In what point of the cuztomizing I can define this?
Thank you in advance,
Leyre

Pls check the settings for the period control methods where you can define the no.of days with FV, based on the days wise you can restrict the depreciation amounts calulation, but the specific amounts option will not be available to serve your purpose.
Let me know for any further info.

Suresh

We have already opened 2 depreciation areas one for tax and the other as difference between book and tax depr in our development client. One of our member has created an asset and posted values to it. Now, we were told that we dont need to open the depreciation areas. When i am trying to delete it system giving error message saying you cannot delete the derived depr as the values have already been posted.
Please advice how i should proceed with the above issue for deleting the depreciation areas. Your help is much appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Clarification Regarding Asset Accounting Chart of Depreciation Copy

Hi,
We have a company code called ACT
For that we have a chart of depreciation assigned is ACT
Number Ranges are 1000000-1999999 (For Example)
Now we configured one more company code called RNC by Copying ACT company code and other settings from ACT company code only.
Clarification required - In Asset Accounting for Company code RNC we are plannint to assign chart of depreciation ACT as it is.
If we do like that - System will take the number ranges from the above ACT number ranges 1000000-1999999 ? or else system will take 1000000-1999999 number ranges from RNC company code? This is my doubt?
I think system will share the 1000000-1999999 number ranges in Asset accounting for both company codes ACT & RNC as we are using Same ACT chart of depreciation for Both company codes.
If we assign Same chart of Depreciation to both ACT and RNC company codes - Is it necessary to do any other configuration or no need to do any?
Kindly clarify my doubt
Thanks
Supriya

Hello,
Make sure that the both the company codes are in a single country before assigning the same chart of depreciation.
The number range of assets are defined at company code level. Meaning that you can have the same asset number in different company codes. The system will not share the number ranges across company codes.

Ravi

ERROR Message no. AU265 :While closing asset accounting year ------ URGENT

Hi All,
THE ISSUE IS URGENT . Please help in resolving it.
One of our users have missed to do the repeat depreciation run for
Asset 4464 (Co. code 0006)in 12th period as she has raised a credit
memo for this
Asset after she did normal depreciation run for period 12, 2007.
Than the financial year 2007 FI-GL was closed and when she was trying
to do Asset year closing for 2007 through t-code AJAB she got the error
that depreciation not updated for asset 4464 and realized that she hasmissed a repeat depreciation run .
Than I replied back to her that there is no other way out to solve this
problem other than to get the last fiscal year opened and than do the
repeat run and not to do any posting for this year before closing the
previous year.
But in the mean while she has already posted the depreciation for
Jan 08 for all assets and also posted the value for 4464 Asset in
Period Jan08 . Now when she is running AJAB she is getting error the
following error.
AU265 : Documents from last posting run in 2007 are not yet updated.
The sequence which the user has followed is as follows:
First, I ran depreciation for all assets in period 1, 2008 with no errors. But, the December depreciation for asset 4464 did not post in this run.
Then, I posted depreciation for asset 4464 in period 1 2008 (see document 300000881), with no errors by following the steps in the attached document.
1.     T-code AFAB
2.     Entered the criteria with repeat run for Asset 4464(I knew SAP would not allow me to post to 12/2007)
3.     F9 to process in background
4.     T-code SM35 to process batch
5.     Received error that period 12/2007 was not open for posting
6.     Changed posting date to 01/2008 and processed the batch
7.     Now, the remaining December 2007 depreciation for asset 4464 posted. See document 300000881.
8.     T-code AJAB (Year-End Closing Asset Accounting), again
9.     Received message that the Close was not carried out because Documents from last posting run in 2007 are not yet updated.
Please tell what can be done now to resolve this error.
Points will be rewarded if your answer helped.
Thanks & Regards,
Prachi

Prachi,
I faced a similar situation from 2004, we transfered that portion of credit memo into a dummy company code / Asset and a manual adjustment in 2007 for the credit memo portion... ofcourse there will be a difference but explainable...
In your situation... check if you can open 2007 repost the depreciation for 12 and clear this issue?
Hopefully this helps.

What is the use of OASV transaction in Asset accounting

Dear Experts,
Could you please advise me clearly what is the use of OASV transaction in Asset accounting and which GL account we need to use for debit and credit while using this t code. Can you please provide me along with examples for better understand and that would be great for me.
Thanks in Advance,
Murali

Transfer Balances
In this step you can post balances to G/L accounts which have already been defined as reconciliation accounts. You can only post these corrections in company codes which have implementation status.
The transfer of legacy asset data using the legacy asset transaction does not affect the balances of the corresponding reconciliation accounts in Financial Accounting. Therefore no automatic balance formation or reconciliation takes place and you will need to manually reconcile the balances. You can ascertain the Asset Accounting values using of the asset list. When you start this report, specify January 1st of the current fiscal year as the report date. The system will then provide data as of December 31st of the previous fiscal year (in other words, no depreciation from the current fiscal year is included).
Activities
Copy the balances from any suspense accounts to the Asset Accounting reconciliation accounts.

Activation of Additional Account Assignments for Asset Accounting

Hi,
I am facing the problem while running depreciation run through AFAB in that the system giving the error message i.e the cost center I3010 is not relevant to business area 7211 but it is 7210.But when I check Cost center(I3010) Master Record it has been correctly assigned with as system saying with 7210 Business Area and not 7210.Eventhough I assgined correct business area in CCTR Master Record why this error is still coming.
And in the error help it is saying that you should make explicit assignment with 7210 business area and for this you have to make business area field as a readily input in cutomizing.After that I check in Asset Accounting additional account object I dont have business area at all.
My questions ?
1.To rectify this where I have to make this BA field as ready input in customizing ?
2.If it is yes in Additional Accounts Objects in AA how I can define newAdd Acc Obj in customizing ? Is it possible ?
Can you plz explain with clear answer becz we are trying since pasy 2 days but the results are hopeless.
Waiting for quick reply.

Hi E Pericherla
Have you checked up the relevant Asset master, regarding Cost Center and BA Assigned there.
