Deprecation Areas

Hi All SAP Gurus,
Could you please tell how many deprecation areas can be assigned to one company code.
Thanks,
Praveen.

HI,
There is no direct relation between COmpnay code and Depreciation Areas.
It is linked Via Charto depreciation.
One chart of depreciation can contain many dpereciation areas.
So indirectly one company code can have many depreciation areas..

Deprec. area data can be changed despite view authorization

Hi,
Users with Asset view '03' (ie authorization to change master data for only tax depreciation areas-10,11,13 & 40) are able to change values in asset master for all deprecation areas.
I applied note 1316246 and in user role restricted the AA_VIEW to value '03'. It does not solve the issue, do you know how to fix this?
Thanks

Thanks.
There are many users and i would like it to restrict by role, which is not possible in validation.

Change Asset Deprec.Area Date

Hi Gurus,
In AS02 i am changing the sub asset deprec.Area Date but system is not allowing.
That area is not active.
Asset Capitalized on 31.12.2009.
First Acquisition on 31.12.2009.
Acquisition year 2009/012.
I Want to change manually the deprec.area date.
Please suggest me.
Regards,
Veera.

Hi Veera
You can change your default Asset Value Date for various transactions by following this path -
SPRO-> Financial accounting-> Asset accounting--> Transactions--> Specify how default asset value date is determined ---> Define variant....
Make changes to what you want your default Asset Value date as.
Note, it affects all your assets in the Co. Code. (because the variant is assigned to the Co.Code)
Hope this helps.

Deperaction Area 32 screen is not getting dispalyed in Production Via ABAA.

Hi,
When we are trying to Post the unplanned depreciation on prior-year acquisitions (640) via ABAA, we are getting an error message that Deprecation Area 32 should be Zero, We have check the OADB ( Display view asset accounting: define depreciation area) configuration setting, where Posting to G\L is maintained as u2013 0 (No values are posted in General Ledger). Then we have advised the key user to make the value ZERO for Deprecation 32 when he posts the unplanned depreciation on prior-year acquisitions via ABAA.
But the problem here we are facing in Pre production server (XZB) when we post unplanned depreciation on prior-year acquisitions via ABAA where we are getting THREE Pop window screens like Deprecation Area 02, 32, 90 but when we are doing the same in Production Server (PZB) where we are getting TWO Pop window screens like Deprecation Area 02, 90, Deprecation area 32 pop window screen is not getting displayed, can some help me in resolving this Issue.
Thanks a lot in advance.

hi,
Check in t-code OABU whether your area allows UP depreciation.The setting in OABU should NOT be contradictory to the
selection made inside the depreciation area .Means,if you select the option "no values allowed" for unplaned depreciation, in the
definition od depreciation area, then it wil overwrite the setting in OABU.
I guess this is the reason fior your issue.
Hope this helps.

Write up an asset for a depreciation area

Hi All,
We have 2 Depreciation areas 01 for local, 02 for IAS.
I try to write up as asset with t-code ABZU, but it only takes effect for area 01.
My problem is how to write up an asset which takes effect for area 02 only?
Thanks.
Claude

Hi - First determine the transaction type that you are using in ABZU. Eg you use transaction type 700.
Go to tcoe OAXE ( limit transactions per deprecation area) and select the area 02 for display for selection. You can select the always post option if this transaction type should always post for this depreciation area.
Thanks,

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.

Error: Parallel depreciation area 31 is not posted

Hi experts,
Hi have customized 5 depreciation areas:
01 book depreciation in local currency
30 deferred balance sheet in local currency (for different useful life)
31 deferred balance sheet in group currency
32 book depreciation in group currency
60 derived depreciation area
I specified that 30 will get values from 01; 31 will get from 30; 32 will get from 01; plus one derived for 01 and 30 difference.
Then when I entered asset values in F-02 using transaction type 100, I get this error. Please help. Thank you.
Parallel depreciation area 31 is not posted
Message no. AA565
Diagnosis
The asset to be posted does not manage parallel depreciation area 31, or transaction type that you are using is limited to certain depreciation areas, and does not contain depreciation area 31. This is incorrect.
System Response
Posting is rejected.
Procedure
Check the asset and the transaction type.

Hi John.
In "Specify use of Parallel Currency" setup your currencies type/Valuation view.
In Currency Type/Valuation View, against area 31 maintain it for 31 (Group Currency Group Valuation) and against area 40 maintain 40 (Hard Currency). Transfer of Deprecation terms setup from Deprecation
area “01”. Setup like below.
Now go to below
Maintain your currency as per requirement and see if changes are updated as per above configuration (I mean valuation id is "01" for your depreciation area, try to execute your transaction and let me know if it’s working.
After that go to define depreciation area and see if your depreciation area setting for 01, 31 and 40 is same. Please try to check in Sandbox first.
Please mark it as correct if your problem resolves, so it would be useful for other as well.
Thanks and Regards,

No depreciation areas have been defined for asset

Dear consultant,
By mistake from our user had deactivated Depreciation Area in T-code AS92 for Auc asset 1200005 please suggest
How can we activate Deprecation area ?
Because We already settled 350 line item in same asset and still 150 item we have to settle from this asset.
The problem is if I run any T-code related that asset getting error
No depreciation areas have been defined for asset 1200005-0
Message no. AA025
one more thing i want to tell you that this happend only for one asset not for entire asset class I check in IMG Setting is ok for asset class.

I tried doing this but I got an error:
Depreciation area 01, which you want to create as a new depreciation area in chart of depreciation TTHI, has no depreciation area defined for value takeover. This may be be correct for normal operation, however for the purposes of creating a new depreciation in the productive system, you have to enter a depreciation area whose values are used as base values for the new area.
Do you have another solution for this?
I hope anybody can help me on this issue.

Parallel Currecy for derived depreication area

I found many threads related to this but not a clear solution. Here is my issue, we have depreciation area 01 which represents IFRS and area 05 represents Local books. Derived deprecation area 55 posts the difference of area 05 and area 01. Area 01 and area 55 post to GL accounts and the combination of GLs provide local reporting values.
Area 01 has parallel area 32 which represents group currency. So while posting the GL amounts in group currency match to area 32.
But since area 55 is a derived area there is no parallel currency for 55 and hence while posting entries system converts local to group currency using current exchange rate.
Reporting in local currency works fine as area 01 and 55 posts in local currency.
But reporting in group currency doesnu2019t work as group currency in area 55 is converted based on current exchange rate and not historic.
How can I solve this issue? so that both local and group currency report balances match.

Hi,
Go to t.code OB22 - Ex rate type - M fpr Parallel currencies T.code: OAW3 - Ex rate type - M (Capitalization date as base)
T.code: OABT - Area 30 - 30 USD, Area 31 - 60 CNY

Asset Accountig.. summing up different Depreciation areas

Does anyone know why it´s not possible to total different deprec areas using the cube 0FIAA_C02. As the matter of facts one can total areas but it does not lead to correct result in the queries
Thanks
Walter

Hi
Hope you can achive this requirement by entering Depreciation calculation start date in depreciation area tab of asset master against each depreciation area
Depreciation calculation start date
'As a general rule, the system determines the depreciation start date from the asset value date of the first acquisition posting. However, you can also manually enter a calendar date in the asset master record for the start of depreciation. In that case, the system ignores the asset value date of the acquisition posting.'
Please check different scenarios in development system and then do it

Normally you will delete the depreciation areas after copying from reference chart of depreciations. SPRO --> Financial Accounting --> Asset Accounting --> Organizational Structures --> Copy Reference Chart of Depreciation/Depreciation area --> copy/delete Depreciation Areas.
After creation also
If you doesn't want to use the deprecation areas you can deactivate at asset class level also.

While retire asset by scrapping -Unplanned depreciation positive in area 03

I am trying to retire assets by scrapping through ABAVN but getting error message - Unplanned depreciation positive in area 03.
Please help.

Hi,
Try following workaround to avoid error message AA638 : Depreciation -> Unplanned depr. -> define deprec. area (OABU)
Select the concerned deprec. areas and verify that the flag 'all values allowed' is selected.
When you set this indicator, this depreciation area allows unplanned depreciation with positive as well as negative values.

Brigitte
