Delete Asset Master with Sub-Assets

Hi Gurus,
A client of mine has an Asset with out any values, but it has sub-assets under it with values and depreciation.
Is it possible to delete the main asset and still have sub-assets? If not what is the way I can delete the main asset and still retain sub-assets?
Thanks.
regards,
Raj

Hi Gurus,
Thanks for the replies.
The user has in the mean time went ahead and deleted the main asset that did not have values, now we are able to only see the asset when we go to the report (asset balance report), but not able to see when we go to Display Asset (AS03).
Is there any way we can undo this?
Thanks.
regards,
Raj

I have a requirement for a report in the Asset accounting.
User wants a report where in he can see the asset details with the legacy asset number which is entered in the second description field in the Asset Master. I executed the available reports and could not find one like that. Please help me out.

You have the option to ad this field to the reporting stucture.
Wy you have ased this field and not the fields in the tab origin for old asset number?
For extra fields in the asset see the Wiki

Scrap Asset and its sub assets in one transaction code

Please suggest if it is possible to scrap an asset and all its sub assets in one transaction as opposed to scrapping them separately in ABAVN.
regards
Rekha

Click on the button Multiple assets and fill in there the main asset and sub numbers. You have to fill them all in. There is no transaction that you can do this with filling in only the main-asset number

New Depreciation Area in Asset Master Data, for assets under construction.

Hi,
The issue is relating to New Depreciation area. We have created new Depreciation area as 80=IFRS. We had followed three steps
1. Create Depreciation area via OADB.
2. Activate Depreciation area via OAYZ.
3. Automatic opening of new depreciation are via AFBN and program RAFABNEW :-
3.1 u2013 Indicator: Leave values initial = ticked. Set this indicator if you want to open the newly created depreciation area without any values i.e. blank.
In this we have find that the old assets value has been copied. But when we are doing internal order settlement through KO88 i.e. from pre-cap to AUC we are not finding new Depreciation area 80=IFRS in AUC. We had checked in AW01N.
Letu2019s assume that creating a new deprecation area is normally not required since these assets are not depreciated. But During the final settlement, the new depreciation area should also automatically supplied with values from the reference depreciation area from the AUC(assets under construction) in the completed assets. But we doesnu2019t find any values of in Dep Key = 80 IFRS for final assets.
In Assets Class of AUC we had used Investmnet Measure as Status of AUC.
Kindly provide solution for the same.
Nikhil

Check Transfer Variant 5 (under Transactions->Intercompany Asset Transfers->Automatic Intercompany Asset Transfers->Define Transfer Variants):
5     Investment measure settlement
Your Transfer Method is most likely 1 now (without transfer to dependant areas), change it to:
4     Gross method with transfer of values to dependent areas
This should help.

Is there a way I can use a Master with sub-projects on different calendars?

Wondering if I can get some advice creating a Master Project (MSP2013 Standard, no Project Server software). I have 3 projects of which 2 are utilising a Standard calendar 8:00AM to 5:00PM 8hr day 40hr week, and 1 project (the largest) utilising a Customised
calendar 7:30AM to 3:30PM 7.5hr day 37.5hr week.
The dominant project is running on the Customised calendar so I have set the Global Options in the Master to reflect the 7:30AM to 3:30PM 7.5hr day 37.5hr week. Then set the calendar in Master Project Information default to the Customised calendar.
Finally, the resource pool for all 3 projects is in the Master.
No problem when I insert the sub-project into the Master which is using the customised calendar. All data is reflective of the original project. However, when I insert either of the 2 sub-projects using the 40hr week calendar the Summary Headings for
the inserted projects are incorrect. For example, instead of being 2 weeks duration, the summary heading displays 2.13 weeks, and instead of 4 weeks duration, the summary heading displays 4.27 weeks.
The Global settings appear to be interfering with the projects on the Standard calendars. I am surprised and extremely frustrated as I thought the settings in the Master would not affect anything?
Sorry guys, have posted this in 3 different places as it is so important to me!

Hi Guys, many thanks for your responses, really appreciate your time, however I am finding this much more complex. I have put my original sheets to one side and started again. Once again this is very important hence a lot of detail here. I am hoping something
will provide a clue where I am going wrong.
New sheet |save as Master | Change Working Times |copy Standard Calendar and called it 37.5 Hour
Calendar| No exceptions | Work Weeks tab |Details | Set Monday to Friday 7:30AM to 12:30PM then 1:00PM to 3:30PM. Selected Options | Schedule | Start 7:30AM End 3:30PM |Hours 7.5 | Hours per week 37.5 |Auto Scheduled |Duration Hours|
Work Hours |Fixed Duration | OK OK. Project | Project Information | Calendar changed to 37.5 Hour Calendar | Save.
In my previous example I noted that my main project is scheduled 37.5 hours but I will skip inserting it here, the issue is subprojects with different settings to the Global, that is mixing projects with different calendars in a Master.
New sheet | save as 40 Hour Project |Change Working Times |Standard Calendar | No exceptions | Selected Options | Schedule | Start 8:00AM End 5:00PM |Hours 8 Hours per week 40 |Auto Scheduled |Duration Weeks | Work Hours |Fixed Duration
| OK OK | Save.
Entered 5 new Tasks, all 2weeks duration, all linked Finish to Start. Inserted a Summary Heading named 40 Hour Summary | 40 Hour Summary Duration = 10 wks | Start 9 June 1014 8:00 AM | Finish 15 August 2014 5:00 PM |Created 1 Resource called Fred | 100%
|$100 Standard Rate | Assigned Fred to all tasks 100% | Project | Project Information | Statistics | 10w 400h $40.000 |Save and Close | All correct.
Back to the Master | Project | Insert Subproject | selected 40 Hour Project |Duration 400 hrs | Start 9 June 2014 8:00AM | Finish 21 August 2014 10:30AM. It appears the Global settings are affecting the inserted subproject note the finish time is now
10:30AM. Project | Project Information |Statistics |Duration 400h | Work 400h | All correct!
BUT | select View Outline Show Subtasks |This is where further changes have happened | Project | Project Information |Statistics |Duration is now
374.5h | Work 400h.
Besides information being displayed incorrectly these figures will affect all Reports. This example suggests you cannot have subprojects in a Master that are associated with different calendars? Surely not! Please help if you can, I have
spent hours searching for answers, and I can’t believe I am the only one who has come across this! Many thanks.......

Asset Creation with intermediary Asset Holding Account

Hello Gurus,
We are on ECC6.0 and SRM 7.0 , business requirement is to procure the asset from the P2P cycle and have an Asset Holding account as an intermediary account. And at Month End post the balance from the intermediary account to the main asset account after review.
Business has clear requirement to have the all posting first going from the P2P cycle to a Asset Holding account( intermediary account) and at month end review the same and than create the asset and than transfer the posting from Asset holding account to the Main asset Account.
Can you please provide inputs how do we address the same.
Thanks & Regards
Rutvij

Hi
I understand about the AUC after checking various threads on SDN.
But i am wondering is my requirement addressed
'Business has clear requirement to have the all posting first going from the P2P cycle to a Asset Holding account( intermediary account) and at month end review the same and than create the asset and than transfer the posting from Asset holding account to the Main asset Account"
So if we go with AUC , we need to create a asset number before the procurement process starts.
At the completion of the AUC once the asset is settled, for the new asset procurement business will have to create a new AUC asset number.
Hope I am able to help you in understanding the requirement.
Any inputs in this regard are helpful
Thanks & Regards
Rutvij

Problem with the creation of asset master record

Hi Gurus,
i am having problem in creation of a new asset master with the use of existing man asset number and different asset sub number. I am trying to create the asset in the same company code but different depriciation area, but the system is not allowing me to do that. Is there a setting in the SPRO by which I can allow the use of creation of the asset number by using the already existing asset number with the new asset sub number. This is actually happening in the system for one type of equipments but not for other.
Can any one tell me what settings are to be made to allow this for all containers.
Thanks in advance
Anoop Sharma

Hi,
A sub asset master can be created with AS11 only.
You cannot create a asset sub number under a main asset number, in the case, where different set of dep areas needs to be maintained.
When you create a sub asset, all the dep areas will be copied to sub asset's master from main asset master. Since this set of dep areas cannot be different from main asset to sub asset.
Hopw you understood this.
Thanks,
Srinu.

How to Use Same Asset Number with Different Sub-number

Hi
We want to sell some assets and buy them back on lease. We want to use same Asset number with different sub-number under the same company code. This new asset will be under different Depreciation Area (Statistical).
We use external numbes for assets . And same asset number range is used by all compnay codes.
Please suggest whether this is possible & how.
With Regards,
Nitin

Hi,
Go to field status for asset master data section and change the field status to optional for field Deactivation date, then follow the below steps.
You can create an sub asset number to an asset, which is already deactivated by retirement as like normal sub asset creation with AS11.(While creating sub number, you need to remove cap date and deactivate dcate field manually from asset master)
With this you can get new asset number as same as your old retired asset main number and but sub number will be different.
To post to diff dep area, other than 01, then you first create an acq transaction type, which will post only to specific areas and then use the new asset number in ABSO to post acq with your custom TTY.
I have tested and found working well in my system............Try now in your test client

Sub asset master

hello gurus,
what is the use with sub asset master? can't we create an asset with asset master? will we calculate dep. on asset or sub asset?
Pls clarify my doubts
N.M.B

If Main Asset is "Tractor" the "Trailor" becomes a sub-asset or the Farming equipment you attach to the tractor is Sub-asset.
If an asset can perform independently that is Main asset. If the asset has to be attched to some other asset for performing then this is a sub-asset.
Depreication is calculated at Main asset level which includes the sub asset depreciations.
reward if useful.

Vendor name in Asset Master Table

Hi all,
If i open any asset master with Tcode AS02, i am able to see the vendor code and vendor name in the origin tab in the asset master.
And the fileds filled in asset master will be stored in table called ANLA, when i open the said table for the respective asset, there i am able to see only the vendor code only not the vendor name field.
the vendor name field ANLA-LIEFE was showing blank, as it was showing data in the asset master.
I think there might a technical issue in this regard.
Please suggest me to fix this bug.
Thanks,
Srinu

Hi
It is not a bug,
This field is currently for informational purposes only.
You can only use this field to define sort versions.
SAP-Definition of Sort version."A means of defining groups and group totals in asset reports. All fields of the asset master record can be used as group and/or sort criteria for defining a sort version. You enter the sort version key when starting a report."

Settlement of Investment Order - Auto creation of Sub asset for settlement

< MODERATOR: Message locked. Please post this in the [ERP Financials - Asset Accounting|SAP ERP Financials - Asset Accounting;. >
Dear experts
Request your help on Investment orders settlement.
We are doing settlement of Investment orders to sub asset numbers, where sub assets are created well in advance.
Our client want system to create sub asset numbers automatically, while doing the settlement of Investment orders itself.
Is it possible ?, If possible, please let me know, what are the settings I need to do to meet this requirement.
Thanks in advance
S. Habib Pasha.

Hiya,
Go to IMG --> Controlling --> IO --> Actual Postings --> Settlement --> Automatic Generation of Settlement Rules.
There is no SAP Standard created for settlements to sub-assets, so you'll need to create one using option 4 there "User-Defined Strategies for Automatic Generation ...".
Once this is done, get an ABAP Developer to code the settlement rule by creating a custom project in that same transaction. The rule will be similar to the SAP Standard ones created in option 1 of the same node.
Once this is done, create strategy sequences for this, and assign to Order Type(s).
If your users can maintain a basic investment profile when creating the Order Master Data, the developer can be directed to pick that data (aka fields) for the creation of the subasset number.
Hope this helps.
Cheers.

Error when uploading Sub-asset numbers using LSMW

Hi All,
We have a requirement in which we need to first load Main asset numbers from Legacy system through LSMW and then in the next load the sub-assets for the Main Assets created.
We are using Direct Input method(program RAALTD11) in LSMW for transaction code AS91 for loading Main Assets.
And then using a file with similar structure, but with sub-asset numbers filled for creating Sub-assets using AS94 and Direct Input Method.
While doing this, we are getting error:
AU 256 Different asset class <asset-class> in sub-number.
I have seen that there is a similar thread in SDN but the solution provided there is not useful to us, so I am raising again.
I am not using Batch input method, as it is giving rise to many screen errors like "<Field> is not an input field".
Please let me know how to get rid of this error.
Thanks a lot .

Hi,
ensure that the sub-asset has the same asset class than the main asset, no matter which inout method you are using.
best regards, Christian

Investment order field is missing in origin tab of asset master (AuC)

Dear Experts,
While creating an asset master (AuC), the Investment Order field is not shown for the input, in the Origin Tab. Whereas for Asset master for the other Asset classes are showing this field for the input.
Please advice how can I get this field in the asset master under AuC asset class.
Thanks in advance in anticipation.
An early reply is well appreciated and properly rewarded with points.
Regards
Preethi

Hi,
First check the asset Scr.layout rule for asset class by using path -
Spro>Financial Accounting>Asset Accounting>Organizational Structures>Asset Classes-->Define Asset Classes
Select your asset class and check - asset Scr.layout rule .
Then go to -
Spro>Financial Accounting>Asset Accounting>Master Data>Screen Layout-->Define Screen Layout for Asset Master Data
Click on - Define Screen Layout for Asset Master Data
Select your Screen layout which you got earlier. In Logical Field group select 'Inv. account assignment'. and double click on field group rule.Then make required changes in 'Investment Order' as required - Required, optional, display.
Then check asset master data in AS02.
