Creation of Depreciation key

Dear All,
When i am creating Depreciation keys...i am giving various methods which i defined...but when i am saving
the depreciation key i am getting following warning...
1000 CA06 N 1: Percentage rate required for depreciation calculation method P
Diagnosis
You have to enter at least one percentage rate in multi-level method C06. This is required in combination with depreciation calculation method P in base method IND1.
System Response
Data is not saved.
Procedure
Use a different base method or a different multi-level method, or enter a percentage rate. The incorrect entry is in 1000 CA06 N 1 (chart of depreciation, depreciation key, depreciation type, depreciation phase).
Will there be any impact when i am doing my transactions......
Please help to resolve the issue
Sapfrido

Dear,
Sapfrido.
When you maintain P as Stated Percentage in your BASE METHOD it is need to maintained the percentage for the specified key in your Multilevel Method , So in accordance with your mentioned one criteria system will carry out depreciation calculation.
Hope this will help you to understand.
Please revert if you need clarification.

Setup one depreciation key

Hi Gurus,
I have a scenario as below:
1) Define one depreciation key that allow user to specify any of the useful life during asset master data creation
2) Based of the useful life entered in the asset master data help to calculate planned/posted depreciation automatically
Instead of define all the posibility depreciation key, may I know if there is any flexible way that I could setup to cater for above scenario?
Pls advise and guide with sample example.
Thanks & regards,
Loi

Loi,
1) Define one depreciation key that allow user to specify any of the useful life during asset master data creation
    - During the creation of Asset Master data, you have the option to manually input the asset's useful life
    - If you want SAP uatomatically derive the useful life base on the asset class, you can maintain in in tcode OAYZ
      Chart of Depreciation
      Asset Class
      Depreciation Area
      Deprciation Key
      Useful life
      Period
      Layout
2) Based of the useful life entered in the asset master data help to calculate planned/posted depreciation automatically
     - the planned depreciation will be automatically calculated base on the depreciation key (straight line/declining balance) also useful life is a factor
     - Base on the planned depreciation, actual depreciation will be posted to the asset when you execute "Depreciation Run" program tcode AFABN.
Instead of define all the posibility depreciation key, may I know if there is any flexible way that I could setup to cater for above scenario?
If you have existing depreciation key that will satisfy your depreciation calculation requirement, no need to create new one.
Thanks!

Depreciation key issue

Hi Gurus,
we have 100 assets,at the time of creation of asset master data,every time we have to give the depreciation key manually or is there any additional settings we have to do.
regards
jana

Hi!
Kindly read F1 help on field XDAILY in the customizing of the
depreciation key for an explanation :
The "depreciation to the day" function becomes active for an asset as
soon as the asset has a corresponding depreciation key and the asset is
capitalized (posted to). Once this takes place, it is no longer possible
to switch off this function for the asset, even if you change the
depreciation key. On the other hand, it is not possible to activate this
function for an asset after it has already been capitalized using a
different depreciation key.
Please consider also note 1036569 in case the error is not justified
according to the above information. However, from your attachment I
gather that you are trying to change depreciation key in ara 01,
hence note 1036569 may not be the solution either.

Which depreciation key is eligible for mid-month convention in SAP?

Dear Experts,
I am looking for the depreciation key for mid-month convention for USA in SAP standard system.
Do you know what key is for this convention?
Thanks.
BR,
Chris Kim

Dear sapfincon,
Thank you for your comment.
When I looked at those depreciation keys, LINA/LINK/LINR, those period control are 007 or 008.
In case of acquisition for those period controls, "007" has "04" (First year convention at half year start date) and "008" "01" (Pro rata at period start date).
I don't think these "04" and "01" stand for mid-month convention.
I assume the period control "02" (Pro rata upto mid-period at period start date) is for mid-month convention.
What do you think about this?
Thanks again.

Asset Depreciation Key

Dear Gurus,
I am facing an issue with setting up a depreciation key.
The principle is the following / 15% / year - 1st year 7.5%
No NBV < 0
Period control // everything to be calculated 1st day of the year
I have tried to do something with multilevel method - but I think I am missing something.
Enclosed, screenshots...
Thank you all for your ideas and your help.

Hi,
Define multi level method for the dep.key as shown below.
Then the depreciation for the asset as shown below..

Changing Depreciation Key for Tax for closed fiscal years -

Hello,
Hoping someone can help me with this question - Is it possible to change the depreciation key for closed fiscal years - we need to change it for Tax - books. And if yes - does it mean we need to open closed fiscal years ??
Thank you,
Richa

Hi,
you will need to open the FI and AA periods. After changing the depreciation keys do the necessary dep run and close the books in the correct sequence.There should not be problem.

How to get Depreciation key independant from Depreciation area

Hello,
We are using two depreciation areas 01 book depreciation and 15 Tax, in our asset class we have put for both the same depreciation key (GD50) but with a different uselife for every depreciation area
Now when we create a new asset (AS01) intially the correct uselife appears ( tab depreciation area) but apparently when i want to change the one for depreciation area 01 its also changed in depreciation area 15 - how can we avoid that 15 is 'linked' to 01?
Many thanks

Transfer assets from one asset class to another having different depreciation keys.

Hi Gurus,
     I am a noob in FICO, and I am facing a problem while transferring assets from one asset class to another.
Below is the scenario.
I created two assets 100000000000-0 under asset class 4690a and 200000000000-0 under asset class 4690b. And I am trying to transfer the
asset from class 4690b to 4690a by selecting the option ‘New Asset’ in the transaction ABUMN. While doing this, I am receiving an error message as below.
'Posting with trans. type 300 not possible (No acquisition posted).'
     Message No. AA324.
Diagnosis:
     Transaction type 300 belongs to a transaction type group, which can only be used to post to assets to which posting has already been performed. However, no postings have been made to this asset.
Procedure:
     Use a transaction type from a transactio type group, which can be used for the first acquisition to an asset.
The error is related to the transaction type which I hadn’t explicitly created anywhere. But, when checked in transaction AO76, the transaction type 300 belongs to the transaction type group 30. In this group I am not able to find any solution related to the error.
Moreover, in some of the threads in SCN, I read that modifying the transaction type group might lead to something fatal.
Kindly help me in the below.
1. What exactly the error message is related with?
2. Is there any other method to transfer the asset to another class?
Please let me know if any further details are required regarding the scenario.

Hi ,
I understand that you want to transfer the old asset to new asset with different asset class with different depreciation keys and the old asset is not yet capitalized and does not have any Asset Values.
Assuming that since the First Asset is not yet capitalized, that seems to be that its just that ASset Master is created and no Asset Values appear in the Asset.(in other words no acquisition, capitalization, no dep. start etc.)..
Alternatively this asset can be advised to be blocked and flagged for deletion and create a new Asset in the new Asset Class and then capitalize the new asset by doing the acquisition according to the business process i.e. either via PO based process(GR) or Non PO based process.
The transfer of asset is required incase the old asset still have the values and you are transferring the old asset to new one with the left over values.
Also would request you to kindly share some screenshots of the AW01n of the old asset and screenshots of the AS03 to have more idea on it and provide a better solution to the same..
Warm Regards,
Vineet

Link-Group Asset Class, Depreciation Area & Depreciation Key

Dear Experts,
I am new to FI-AA Customization & have a basic query about Group Asset Concept.
I am working on Ecc 6.0 & for Country India.
I want to create Group Asset for calculation of Depreciation as per Income Tax Act. Hence there is just one Depreciation Area (for Group Assets) , but the Depreciation keys are different. E.d IN1, IN2 etc. (Country Version India)
Now the questions are :
1) Do we need to create different Asset Class for different Group Assets or to create just 1 Asset Class for all Group Assets.
E.g. I want to calculate Depreciation As per income Tax Act on Gross Block of Building, Furniture & Fixture, Motor Car, Vehicles etc. So I need to create separate Group Asset Class for each one of above or just to create one Group Asset Class.
2) If we need to create just one Asset Class for all Group Assets; how to maintain a Depreciation Key in OAYZ as there are more than 1 Depreciation Keys?
3) is there any other method / functionality to calculate Depreciation as per income Tax Act or Group Asset is the only functionality?
Thanks & Regards,
Reshma

Dear,
Reshma.
Looking at your Questions let us take explanation for Group Assets :-
1 ) We need to create new different asset class for Group Class in OAOA. Then permit the depreciation area for only Group Asset in OAYM as it is in your current scenario India is Depreciation Area 15 Just select your company code in OAYM and check the Grp Asset field for respective area 15. Then go to OAAX here we have to maintain the assets classes particularly for Group Assets. So check your Group Asset classes for Group Assets. Cerate different Group asset classes for your said requirement.
In these depreciation areas, it is then possible to make an assignment to a group asset. You make this assignment in the specifications for the depreciation area in the asset master record. When you post an acquisition to this kind of asset, the system duplicates the line items from this depreciation area on the given group asset.
2 ) According to me you have to create different depreciation keys for Group Asset classes. Assign the Depreciation keys to your newly created Group Asset Classes in OAYZ and make sure you are deactivating 01 area which is Book Depreciation area.
3 ) As far as I know this is the only functionality available to handle Group Assets. How ever SAP does not have any standard Group Assets functionality. SAP does not supply asset classes to be used solely for group assets. It is we have to determine as per varying Business Process.
I hope this will clear your doubt makes you to understand. Please revert back for further clarification. Welcome you.

Pankaj A Bhalerao.

After AFAB, I've changed depreciation key for an asset from 20% to 0%

Hi All,
I've posted depreciation (AFAB) for periods from 01 to 04 (Depreciation Area 20).
Later I've changed the depreciation key for an asset from 20% to 0%.
In my test SAP allows me to update depreciation data only in the period 05 (for previous data).
Is there the way to repete the depreciation posted in the periods from 01 to 04!
Cluo d anyone help me??
Thanks

Rossi,
Since you have already posted the depreciation for the periods 01 to 04, the system assumes that there are no postings pending for those periods and hence shows the recalculated depreciation in period 05. But you can do the repeat depreciation run using AFAB transaction code. You can try them for period 04 and the entire depreciation posted till 04 will get charged in Period 04 itself.

Set up Depreciation Key with specific depreciation date

Hi Gurus,
       Our system is ERP 4.7. I am trying to set up the depreciation key with the specific depreciation date. Here is more detail; I have the tax requirement that the asset will get depreciated at 25% until 03/31/08 and 20% from 04/01/08. Is there a way that we can set up according to the requirement?
       Here is an example based on the logic. The asset is capitalized on 01/01/08 with the acquisition value, $1000. That means at 01/01/09 the accumulation depreciation will be 212.5 ( 3 month at 25% and 9 month at 20%). After 01/01/09 the asset will be depreciate with 20% until becoming $0
       I have been investigating in Multi-Level Methods, but it seem like I can define only year and period.
       If you know the solution, could you please provide with the detail how to set up?
Regards,
Song

Differences in Depreciation key table structure between SAP 4.5b and mySAP

Depreciation keys in SAP 4.5b were stored in a different table structure to depreciation keys stored in mySAP ERP 2005. Deprecation Keys that existed before the SAP upgrade still exist in the old set of tables; these have a status of Migrated in SAP. Any new or modified depreciation keys will only be reflected in the new set of tables; these have a status of Active. Of course, there is a third Depreciation Key status, Inactive, which means that it is not in use.
There doesnt seem to be any documentation on the mapping between these tables. I need this in order to update our custom reports.
Can anyone help?

Major difference is ECC6 is netwear product having WASJAVA+ABAP
secondly support unicode apart from this we have other diff. you can get fom master guide from service.sap.com/instguides
For installing ECC 6.0 you required a solution manager key.With out solutionmanager key you cannot install ECC6.0.
For ECC 6.0 is called netweaver component here you have ABAP+JAVA stack.
ECC6.0 supports UNCODE.
For installing 4.6 you don't required solution manager key.It only having ABAP stack.
4.6C supports NONUNICODE.
Hope this would add some more info.
