Cross system depreciation area

We are facing a production issue while transferring assets between two company codes . Each company code is assigned to diffreent chart of depreciation with different depreciation areas.
Now we have to define cross system depreciation area to resolve this issue.
Could you let me know what are the config stps involve in changing to corss system depreciation area.
Alos if anyone has document on this please forward it.
Thanks

HI,
Following are the steps required for the configuration as per your requirement
1. define cross syteme depreciation area for both book of depreciation and tax of depreciation in each company company code and as per the requirement mentioned check tax depreciation area in COD 1 whethere any functionality (properties)of the tax depreciation area mentioned in COD2 ma tches if it matches then we can mapp the cross system depreciation area to that particular depreciation area.
2. check comapny id : whether it is legal entitiy( company code assigned to same company)
whether it is independent legal entity ( company code assigned to different company)
3. create transfer variant enter the cross system depreciation area and mentioned transfer method( 1- gross method 2- nett method) and mention the transaction type one for retirement and acqusition resp and mention the transaction type fro prior acq and current year acqsition.

Cross-System Depreciation Area Transfer

Hi,
I need to execute inter-co asset transfer between COD that have different depreciation areas.
For eg,
COD 1 - book depreciation area 01, tax depreciation 02
COD 2 - book depreciation areas 01, US tax depreciation 10, 11,12,13
Can anyone advise how do I configure the above? The transfer to book area should be using gross method and to tax area should be net method.
Thank you.

Use of Cross-System Bussines Areas - ALE

Hi,
I'm cutomizing an HR and PY ALE scenario.
Does anyone knows how to use different values in Cross-System Bussines Areas.
I did it, and to send Master Data IDOCs it works perfect, it makes the conversion. But when I do the payroll run, it does not convert the value. So maybe I'm not doing the right customizing in OBB7 transaction or maybe this is not possible.
I would appreciate all your help.

hi
From my knowledge , you can create the order in different planning plant ,but every time you have specify the planning plant while creating the order. in this way the cost will be captured at the 2000 company code.

also you can create separate work center for that plant do the billing according to the job performed

Business area in Cross System

Hi,,
   Kindly tell me while we run WE05 for IDOC List then we get the message No cross system business area has been assigned to business area BA11
    Send me urgent solution.
With Regards,
   Samrat

The business area has to be assigned to a Cross-system business
area in your ALE-customizing. This can be done via the customizing path:
Call transaction SALE
-> Modelling and implementing Business Processes
   -> Cross-Application settings
      -> Global Organizational Units
        -> Cross-system business areas
Good luck, Kyoko

Issue in setting up dervived depreciation area

Hi,
We have created the following depreciation areas in our development system ,
Depreciation Area                           Type      GL                                            Ledger Group
01 : Book depreciation                     Real      Area posts in real time             0L - Leading ledger
02 : Federal                                      Real      Area doesnt post                     -
We want to create a derived depreciation area : 03 ( 01 - 02) but when we are creating that system is not allowing because it is asking for a ledger group to be assigned. ( we have tried with Wizard and without wizard also to setup parallel valuation)
If anyone of you come across this scenarion , please let us know how this was met.
Thanks in advance.

Vara Prasad

Hi,
do you have more ledger groups then 0L? If not, you can clear the ledger group information in area 01, that doesn´t harm. Then it should be possible to create the derived area without this problem.

Error in ASKB after creating parallel & delta depreciation area

Hi All,
We have APC and depreciation values in Area 1 for an Asset. Now I have created parallel depreciation area 70 and delta depreciation area 90. area 70 posting to parallel ledger. As soon as I created area 90, the following values are showing in AW01N
01 - Dep Area
APC - $45000
Depreciation - 1500
70 - Depr Area
APC - Null
Depreciation - Null
90 - Dep Area
APC - $45000
Depreciation - 1500
So when I run ASKB it gives me an error saying 'Balancing field in Profit center in line item 001 not filled'. The ledger group it is trying to post is the non-leading ledger.
Can you please help.

Hi Murali & Vinod,
Thanks for your replies. The document splitting settings are fine. It was the issue corss-system depreciation are settings. The client had activated area 70 for an Asset in one company code, but did not have it in the transferred Asset in the other company code. It was an intercompany transfer. We fixed this activating area 70 and now it is ok.
Now the problem is after I run ASKB, and check ABST2, the reconciliation report shows a line item with
Account : 1XXXXXX (Accum. Depr A/c)
Ledger : 3G (non leading ledger)
Period : 999
2ndLCGL :example 1000
2ndLC in AA: 0
2ndLC Delta : 1000
3rdLCGL :example 1000
3rdLC in AA: 0
3rdLC Delta : 1000
Leading ledger postings reconcile properly. Non leading ledger APC values in all 3 currencies reconcile properly. Only for Depr A/c in non-leading ledger it is not posting to LC2 and LC3.
Any thoughts?

System does not reset asset retirement date for Depreciation Area specific transaction after area has been deleted

Good day,
I needed to create a new depreciation area in a live system. The depreciation area would not post to the GL, but would be used for tax purposes in a currency other than the local currency. When creating this area the asset values were translated at the system exchange rate which did not agree with the values of the manually maintained tax register. I proceeded by creating new transaction types that would only post to the new area, one of which was an asset disposal transaction, which would be used for downward adjustment of the APC value. I made my adjustments at the end of the previous financial year, but had to start over and proceeded to delete the depreciation area to allow me to start over.
After reinstating the depreciation area, my original adjustments were removed, however the assets which APC values needed to be adjusted downward using the disposal transaction, was giving me the AA 478 Posting transaction is not possible (value date not allowed) error.
I've reviewed the asset postings and there is no record of my original adjustment documents. The problem seems to be that field ANLA-ABGDT (Last Retirement Date), is still indicating the date of my previous adjustments and that this was not updated when the Depreciation Area was deleted and reinstated.
Again, I do not have any documents which I can access or reverse to update this table. Is there any way to clear this field without reversing the disposal document?
I'm also looking at implementing SAP note 1618286, to make error message AA478 a warning. I could not implement SAP note 533378 since it only supports component version 46c and we are currently running component verson 605.
I would appreciate your consideration of my problem.
Regards
Marius

If you are in Test System, you can use function module AA_AFABER_DELETE to totally delete the depreciation area (tcode SE37, specify chart of depreciation and depreciation area), After that recreate your depreciation area and run AFBN. But before you do that, have you created a retirement transaction type that limits the posting on your new depreciation area? If not create one.
Hope this helps.
Thanks!

Logical Systems vs Cross Systems

Dear all,
I have two physical SAP ERP systems grouped under one logical system.
Now I want to connect to a third SAP ERP system in order to execute Cross System analysis between the systems under the logical system and the new third system.
I understand that I cannot do a Cross System RA on systems of the same logical system so that´s the reason why I need to set up the third system as a single new ERP system.
Anyhow the new ERP system should use the same rule set than the two systems of the logical system.
So I´d just like to set up the new system connector for the GRC 5.3 but I do not want to load the same rules again for the new ERP system, etc.
Is this possible? I tried to create a new logical system containing the new ERP system and regenerate the rules for the logical systems. But after that no simple RA is possible for the new ERP system.
Thanks for any advice and regards,
Markus Richter

Hello Markus,
Yes, you are right that you can not include the third system in the same logical group if you wish to use it for cross-system analysis. If you choose to have this as a stand alone system in RAR then first you will have to upload the rules for this stand alone system in RAR. The rules loaded for logical system will not work for this system as it is not part of the logical system group.

Cross reference markers are deleted for content in text insets

Cross reference markers are deleted for content text insets. I currently have a chapter that is built from several Import by Reference files. I added an introductory paragraph with cross reference links to heading 2 titles in these text insets. Everything works and saves normally, although the cross reference markers disappear from the chapter when files are checked out a few days later. An extra Heading 2 is also added to the end of the document.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a chapter composed of several text insets.
2. Create a list of cross references to headings in these text insets at the beginning of the chapter.
3. Check in/check out the files from a source control product.
What went wrong?:
The cross reference markers are gone, resulting in broken cross references. An empty Heading 2 is also added to the end of the document following the final text inset
What should have happened?:
The markers should remain and the heading 2 tag should not be applied to the document.
Product version:
Product: FrameMaker
Version: 7.2
Platform information:Windows XP
Hardware: Dell Latitude D620
OS Version: Windows XP Professional Version 2002, Service Pack 3.
RAM: 1GB

Thanks for the information, Van. We did try several techniques including adding the insertion point immediately after the text inset before the normal paragraph tag, but none seemed to consistently work. I will investigate this scenario futher, though, in light of your comments.
We have managed to determine a workaround for this issue by avoiding a string of text insets. For some reason, using multiple text insets without separating them with normal text causes most of the problems after we add the files to our source control system. The situaton is not ideal, but it does work for the time being anyway.

How to delete depreciation areas when a posting is made in asset accounting

Hi All,
We are implementing asset accounting to few of our company codes as a new company code start up project. We have opened depreciation areas for tax for one company code and found that we are not going to use this company code for asset accounting.
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

Hi Rose,
For the below mentioned issue do the following:
1) reset all the depreciation data ( t code OAGL)
2) reset all the asset account co code data (t code OABL)
then u can go and delete the depreciation areas.
regards,
Kiran

Unable to assign the depreciation area to co. code

Hi,
I am getting the below message
Inconsistency between FI company code BHEL and chart of deprec. BHEL
Message no. AC481
Diagnosis
You tried to assign chart of depreciation BHEL to company code BHEL. According to its Customizing definition, this company code manages parallel currencies.
The chart of depreciation does not contain a corresponding depreciation area for each of the currency types that are defined in the company code.
System Response
This assignment is not possible.
Procedure
1. Check the currency types of the company code.
2. Specify a corresponding depreciation area for each currency type.
Please any one explain the way to resolve.
Thanks,
Rajesh.

Hello Rajesh,
Please search the asset accounting forum. A lot has been written on this very question already. I would have included a link but I have noticed that, sometimes when I answer a question, someone for some obvious reason deletes the question or subject to which I provided an answer.

Fixed asset Write up Error. ABZU(Parallel depreciation area 32 is not poste

Hi Sap Gurus,
      I am running into an error when trying to post a write up via "ABZU". Here is the error message "Parallel depreciation area 32 is not posted". Message no. AA565.
Diagnosis
The asset to be posted does not manage parallel depreciation area 32, or transaction type that you are using is limited to certain depreciation areas, and does not contain depreciation area 32. This is incorrect.
System Response
Posting is rejected.
Procedure
Check the asset and the transaction type.
I tried "Limit Transaction Types to Depreciation Areas" in t-code:OAXE for derpeciation area 01 and 32 but still i am getting the same error. I am using ttype:700. When i look into derpeciation tab in asset master record i have depreciation area 32 is there. Is there any configuration piece i am missing. We are using area 32 as IFRS in group which is copy of 01.
Any help will be appreciate.
Thanks and Regards,
Babu

Hi,
There are the following reasons:
1) The wrong transaction type is being used. Please verify that you are using transaction type in the 700 series for your write-up.
2) The transaction type is restricted to certain depreciation areas.   In transaction OAXE the transaction type can be restricted to post only to certain areas. If the asset manages a parallel area you have to extend the posting to include the parallel area.
3) The asset was created before you introduced parallel currencies and does not manage the parallel area. In this case, the parallel area must be created on the asset or the values need to be transferred to a new asset that manages the parallel area.
4) Transacion types 600 and 601 can only be used for assets that have a calculation key in their depreciation area that allows no automatic calculation (for example depr key MANU). The unplanned transaction types however can be used with assets that allow automatic calculation.
You also need to verify that there are entries in Table ANLB for the asset in question for the depreciation area.
5) Your company code uses parallel currencies (currency types 10-co.code currency, 50-Index based currency, 30-Group currency...for example). The assets created in this company code must have the depreciation areas for parallel currencies active. You can only do this in activating the depreciation areas with parallel currencies for all the asset classes used in this company code.
Check transaction OAYZ to make sure the areas are activated for all asset classes in the co.code. If not, you will need to       activate these areas and ensure the asset has all areas assigned.

Error while performing Risk Analysis at user level for a cross system user

Dear All,
I am getting the below error, while performing the risk analysis at user level for a cross system (Oracle) user.
The error is as follows:
"ResourceException in method ConnectionFactoryImpl.getConnection(): com.sap.engine.services.connector.exceptions.BaseResourceException: Cannot get connection for 120 seconds. Possible reasons: 1) Connections are cached within SystemThread(can be any server service or any code invoked within SystemThread in the SAP J2EE Engine), 2) The pool size of adapter "SAPJ2EDB" is not enough according to the current load of the system or 3) The specified time to wait for connection is not enough according to the pool size and current load of the system. In case 1) the solution is to check for cached connections using the Connector Service list-conns command, in case 2) to increase the size of the pool and in case 3) to increase the time to wait for connection property. In case of application thread, there is an automatic mechanism which detects unclosed connections and unfinished transactions.RC:1
Can anyone please help.

Updating fully depreciated assets during creation of subsequent depreciation area

I am subsequently adding multiple depreciation areas in SAP. The system has been live for many years with a legacy system handling the depreciation for the tax books via dual maintenance. I have been able to bring in the new areas via AFBN without issue except for one thing. Many of these assets are fully depreciated in Book01 in SAP but they have remaining tax life. The problem is when the asset is fully depreciated and I assign it cost or try to make a change in the depreciation area tab it automatically fully depreciates those values.
Has anyone ran into this before? What options are there to provide a solution?
To recap; Want to add tax book values to assets already live in SAP. Issue is assets already fully depreciated. Any adjustment to keys and UL on them results in a calculation but regardless it fully depreciates whatever that amount will be.
Many thanks,
Jack

Hi Jack,
I suppose, there are some settings somewhere, which do not allow the asset to have values.
Presumption:
1) AFAMA - Base method -Treatment of end of life: In the depreciation key: there is not "dep. after pland. life end" allowed
2) In OADB there are wrong settings (perhaps no positive acquisition values allowed)
3) Perhaps this is constitutional area and in OADB there is rule for the derived area which is broken.
Best regards Bernhard
