Depreciation before Retirement.

Dear All,
I have questions about the depeciation before the retirement.
For example:
I have an asset which APC is 10000 and accum. depe is 1000. The planned depre is 100 per month. On current month (let's say Sep), I have shut it down. Then till Nov, I will retire the asset.
How about the depreciation on Sep, Oct and Nov? The deprecation will run 100 on Sep rt? But how about the depreciation on Oct and Nov? Will it start to run when I retire the asset? Totally 200 on Oct and Nov. Then the overall depreciation before retirement is 1300 rt?
What if I don't want the deprecitation to be re run for Oct and Nov? Any place I can config in for it?
Thank you and good day
Emma

Hi Emma,
there is not only one answer to your question. In fact the answer is: it depends on your configuration.
If you for example use a straight-line depreciation method "APC over useful life", then the system will not catch up the shutdown periods. Whereas if you would use "net book value over remaining useful life", the system will within the asset lifecycle catch-up the non taken expense.
So my recommendation is to try this out in your system first with your current configuration. If you then have a concrete example which you can´t explain, you could post it here.
Regards,
Markus

What happened to ADOBE workspaces files after being downloaded before retirement?

What happened to ADOBE workspaces files after being downloaded before retirement?

I had this problem as well! I was working on one of several projects I had, I'm pretty sure they were saved on the computer, my computer started to chug, I reset it, and they ALL disappeared! I can't find any of the files anywhere on the hard drive, but I also can't sign into the cloud to see if they somehow got moved. I reset again, and still nothing.
When I try to log into the cloud it tells me the sync failed. Since I only just signed up for the subscription I don't know if it's common for it to go down, or what.

How to send a reminder maill at 3 months before retiring date?

Dear all,
if I need to send a reminder mail to the related HR administrator before 3 months of the employee's retire date, how should I do it?
Should I write a batch program for it?
Thanks a lot for any suggestions!

Hello Lucy
You can shedule this program for running every day at 12 o clock.it will not affect system performance.Check infotype 41date type - 42 last working day.(provided you are updating while hiring date type 42).
Program Logic :
1. Check infotype 41 date type 42.
2.Check the difference in dates and months (system date and date type 42) using function module (HR_HK_DIFF_BT_2_DATES).
3.If 3 months ,send a remainder mail.
Hope this will help you for coding.

Manoj.

Derived depreciation on retirement of Asset

Hi
I have configured the derived depreciation and entry is getting generated for the depreciation posting. But for retirment of asset derived depreciation is not getting calculated.
Anyone put some suggetiion for this issue.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Use of derived depreciation area is to findout the values of assets as per diff valuation, this valuation might be mathematical formula based, which is based on other dep areas.
Dep areas, which are used in derived dep area, needs to have the same currency maintainance.
The functionality of derived dep area:
1) Only dep rates might be diff from one area to another area, in this case only derived dep areas will get values in to it.
2) but where as acquisition, there would not be any value in this area, only in the case of full (100%) use of values from dependent areas used......
Thanks,
Srinu

Preventing asset depreciation on retirement

We will be acquiring assets that need to be retired (to a customer) in the same month as the acquisition (and then acquired in a different company code).
Even though depreciation is only posted at the end of the month depreciation is still recognised so that one months accumulated deprecation is posted to the GL, and the total owed by the customer is reduced.
We will not be using separate assets classes for the assets to be retied, there will be a mix of assets in the same asset class, some to be retired and some not.
How can we create these assets to prevent the single months depreciation posting upon retirement?

Hello
I don't think we can top depreciation when the posting run is executed.
Blocking, deactivation and deletion are choices but it is not a final solution.
Think of replacing dep keys of the asset master record, choose the one which has 0 % and check

assign points if useful

Depreciation On Retired Fixed Assets

Need assistance in troubleshooting an error reported during depreciation process. Error occurs when starting the process "GAINS/LOSS" section of the run. It reports error in CCID for a particular asset which has been retired due to sales. We've checked already checked all set-up relating to depreciation & retirement, which looks ok. Process goes through without error when we "unretire" the asset.
Any suggestions on what else to look out for?

Hi
Th reason for this is that retirement (scrapping) is calculated
as netbook value - less planned depreciation from the start fiscal year
until date of retirement) disregarding depreciation runs for the
period
Note 1162647 it does not explain this particular scenario
but in general refers that retirement is based on calculation on
planned annual values
Example:
Fixed asset values
start fiscal year 2008 (start 01/01/2008) is 1200
the useful life is 24 months = 50 to be depreciated per month
last depreciation run was for period 01/2008 , meaning the
netbook value was after that 1150 =(1200 - 50)
Then post retirement (total scrap) on 01/06/2008
The system will do retirement for the values calculated for the year
950 = (1200- 250 ) being 250 = 50 * 5 months (from start fiscal year
until date of retirement)
The depreciations will also being calculated and executed from
start fiscal year until date of retirement)
If this is not the case, I am afraid that you have to log a message on Sap portal for the assistance.

Also, I am using TO_DATE for the values so using add_months and months_between should not be an issue.
Please help....maybe someone else can see something I am missing...

Hi,
To find people who are 65 years old (or older) as of today, you can simply say
WHERE date_of_birth <= ADD_MONTHS ( SYSDATE
 , -12 * 65
 )ADD_MONTHS knows how to adjust for leap years, but it may not adjust for them the way you expect.
If today is February 28, 2013, the condition above will include people born on Februry 29, 1948. That's actually 1 day before they reach 65. If that's a problem, the solution is slightly more complicated.
If today is March 1, 2013, it will include people born on Februry 29, 1948.
If today is February 29, 2012 (or February 28, 2012) it will include people born on February 28, 1947, but not people born on March 1, 1947.
To find people who will be 65 years old (or over) 3 months from today:
WHERE date_of_birth <= ADD_MONTHS ( SYSDATE
 , (-12 * 65) + 3
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) for all tables, and also post the results you want from that data. Simplify the problem as much as possible.
Explain, using specific examples, how you get those results from that data.
Always say which version of Oracle you're using.

Depreciation in Asset Accounting

Hi Gurus,
Total Acquisition Value is 120000
Depreciation already deducted for 9 months, 10000 each month.
For remaining 30000, i have to deduct the whole amount in 10th month. It means i want to deduct 30000 depreciation in 10th month.
Can you suggest me, how can i do it???
Thank You

Hi
Try to use below TCodes
ABMA - Manual Depreciation
ABAA - Unplanned Depreciation
Before this check whether Account assignments have been made to GL accounts for Manual/Unplanned depreciation. Check at TCode AO90
Cheers

Waiting for Pre+ fixes before buying

I finally got the approval from my company to get the Pre+ on Verizon (switching from ATT). My company employs 66,000 people so the approval process on new devices takes some time especially if you want to use EAS.
Now that the time is here, I find myself waiting for a few critical issues to get addressed before retiring my trusty 680.
1. Double keys being entered - one big reason for not getting the iPhone is lack of a keyboard. Have an unreliable keyboard seems even worse. I hope 1.4.1 addresses this problem
2. GPS not locking or not accurate - I use Telenav multiple times per week. I believe that I can port the Sprint image to the Pre+, but all the problems reported about GPS locking make me worried.
Lastly, the AT&T pitch about being able to talk and surf the web at the same time has some appeal. I am on ATT now. A Pre+ on ATT would be an easier migration since I just swap the SIM. The GPS application problem would be addressed too since ATT supports Telenav. Now if I just knew how long "in the coming months" was!
The thought of StyleTap on the iPhone with HotSync coming soon makes my head hurt since I could then use Datebk6.
Any advice?

On directly-attached disks, we see this when the disk spins down, but won't spin back up fast enough or properly; or with a USB disk that gets its power from the Mac, but not quite enough sometimes; or port or cable problems; or one that's beginning to fail. It's very hard to tell, of course, which.
I'm not very familiar with TCs, but a disk is a disk!

Full unplanned depreciation posted into period

Hello,
posting an unplanned depreciation SAP AA divides the full value between all remaining periods of the year.
Is there a way to change the behavior, so that the full value is posted to the month it is posted?
I have found hardly any customizing settings for unplanned depreciation and I found no documentation to how it is calculated.
Can anyone help me
Regards
Anton

Hi Anton,
You did not mentioned what transaction code you used in posting your unplanned depreciation before you got the scenario you described in your posting.
For you to post unplanned depreciation for a specific month without the system distributing the full value between all remaining periods of the year, use transaction code ABAA.
It is important that you complete the following fields correctly.
1. Company Code : Specify appropriate CC
2. Asset : Specify the asset number
3. Sub-number : Specify if you have one, otherwise, leave blank
4. Document Date : Specify doument date
5. Posting Date : Specify Posting date
6. Period : It is important that you specify the period you want to post the unplanned depreciation to. If you leave blank, the system would just use your posting date and may distribute the amount over the remaining periods of the year.
7. Trans. Type : 640 (Unplanned depreciation on old assets data)
I hope the above helps.
Do not forget to award the points please.
Regards,
Jacob

How to make balance in reconcilation account

Hi gurus
When I am posting JV in FB50 by debiting to depreciation asset retirement account and crediting to asset account which is reconciliation account its giving error as below
Account xxxxx in company code xxxx cannot be directly posted to
Message no F5354
I want to make zero balance on this accounts as asset account is closed in the company code.
Please let me know how can i make them zero
Regards
Sunitha
Edited by: sunitha reddy on Mar 18, 2010 3:26 PM

Hi,
The error F5354 is not an unknown error:
Please check your account determination in AO90 as this error is a
typical customizing error.
Please be aware, that certain accounts cannot be reconciliation
accounts but are 'normal' GL accounts. That is an important reason why
this error does show.
Since the upgrade, the system checks now some account controls and that
is why you get the error message now (even if it was working before
with the same customizing and even if this account is not directly used
in the current transaction).
You may want to review the FI-AA consistency report re G/L Accounts:
IMG Path:
FI-AA -> Preparing for Production Startup -> Check Consistency
-> Consistency Report: Asset G/L Accounts (tx OAK4 = program RACKONT1),
here you will find the same error messages as in AFAB.
As per note 7595 indicates:
The balance sheet accounts and the accumulated depreciation accounts
must be characterized as reconciliation accounts of account type 'A'.
Down payment account KTANZA must also be a reconciliation account
of account type 'A'. The clearing account for down payments KTANZG
must not be set up as a reconciliation account.
Error message F5345 indicates that's you are using reconciliation
accounts in a depr. area which doesn't post online (T093-BUHBKT > '1')
So, if the accumulated depreciation account is a reconciliation account
it is fine. The problem must be found somewhere else. Maybe the account
is also used for a concept where non-reconciliation accounts are needed
(for example and offsetting account or a clearing account).
Please check table T095 in the account determination for revaluation.
The field KTAUFW is defined like KTANSW with the reconcilation account.
That is correct as they are balance sheet accounts.
But the contra account must not be the same, because when posting
revaluation the system try to post
with posting key 70/75 KTAUFW against 50/40 KTAUFG.
The problem is that reconciliation account can only be posted
with posting key 70 / 75.
So you have to change the contra accounts.
Regards Bernhard

Getting Segment in the Asset Master ( Using SEGMENT Badi and not Prt Ctrs)

Hi,
We need the field Segment to be populated in the Asset Master to get the correct P&L Statements ( The depreciation run, retirements etc to post to the Segments) . We are using the segment Badi: FAGL_DERIVE_SEGMENT to derive Segments and NOT the Profit Centers
However, the field Segment missing in Asset Master (Class). The field segment is missing the Time Dependent view while creating the Asset Master Data. This is so because in the Configuration of Asset Accounting --> Integration with GL --> Additional Account
Assignment Objects is not showing the Segment field.
According to SAP help, I CAN DO THIS as mentioned
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_05/helpdata/en/94/f13167dbae436a85a4a1d3ad75f274/frameset.htm
But, as mentioned in the SAP help link above, I am not able to find " Activate segment reporting in
Customizing for Asset Accounting under Integration with General
Ledger --> Accounting Segment Reporting --> Activate Segment Reporting"
Also, from another SAP Help link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm700_ehp01/helpdata/en/fb/84a48d665e4fa9a2dc7b60adeb7c7d/frameset.htm
I found that activation of Business Function FIN_GL_REORG_1
or FIN_REP_SIMPL_3 could also get us the Segment Field in the Asset
Master Data's Time Dependent Field
However, when I goto Transaction SFW5 - Change Business Function Statuswe are not able to find these Business Functions (FIN_GL_REORG_1
or FIN_REP_SIMPL_3 )
Regards
KS

Hi, Activate segment reporting is available only in EHP5.
If you'renot using EHP5, then you can't to update segment as well as profit center in asset master data.
The only way is to put co objects in asset master data, and derive PC,segment based on this co objects

10.7.3 - 10.7.4 major issues

Finally I am able to ask for help. Yesterday, my computer went to sleep and didn't wake up. I was running 10.7.3. I rebooted, and found the cursor frozen in the left hand corner. I rebooted again, no change. Then I tried a Pram and also repaired permissions two different ways, first the usual way, then the other way using the the built in restore utilites by pressing Apple R (?) I don't remember exactly but, I did a repair permission of just certain home folders. Anyway, then, I believe I started in safe mode and the cursor and other problems were fine. But, of course, it was safe mode. I then allowed the upgrade to take place - upgrading to 10.7.4 and then to Safari 6.0 ( I was running whichever one was previous).
It seemed to fix all problems. I didn't use the computer very much and perhaps watched a few minutes on Netflix before retiring fo the evening. THis morning, I watched some more netflix and it all was fine. Suddenly, after about an hour of viewing the film started to hang - up. It did this quite a few time. THen froze for good. I restarted safari and i believe it was back to normal. THen, it all happened again. So, i rebooted the computer. And problems solved, but, they returned.Then a more serious problem happened, NO SOUND, and up at the top of the computer screen, on the right hand side, where all the indicators are sound, wifi, etc. the sound seemed greyed out, there was a seperation between the Sound emblem and the other indicators..as if sound had been isolated...? THe Sound was all the way down and wouldn't budge. I went to Sound , through system preferences and MUTE was check and it was greyed out. So I shut down the computer, took off all power including battery pressed the start button for 60 seconds and retarted. The cursor was frozen again, then, I restarted again. THe same thing but, I found that I could navigate a bit with the arrows, I tried to get to applications, no luck...finally pressing the esc key and random other keys I freed up the cursor. Then, I gave up with video and began to seek answers, but, safari was acting eratic, it wouldn't load properly, and it seemed very slow, I would click on links in google and it seemed to hang up etc. I switched to chrome but, after a few minutes it seemed to have the same problems. Then, I opened Opera and although it wasn't perfect I was able to get to forums...of course, it wouldn't accept my password so I had to reset it - finally I'm here writing.
At one point yesterday, when I was trying to repair permisions ( Disk Utility) it told me 6 hours. later after using the other method, I was able to get it to also repair through Disk Utility and it was quite smooth. I did see a difference with Safari 6.0 at the beginning everything seemed to get faster. But, then problems started, I also found a reference to change to 32 bit which I did.
It's intolerable to have to watch video this way, to have so many glitches coming up, browsers freezing or not working correctly, the cursor freezing after startup - etc. etc. i have a new harddrive for at least 6 months...so I know it's not a hard ware problem...500 GB - still half empty. I"m running 4 GB of ram, the top amount for this MacBook Pro. i had a new mother board installed about 2 years back and had a new Super Drive installed as well. It's been working fantastically until now. Sorry for writing so much - but, it's very frustrating. YES I had a problem in 10.7.3 previous to upgrading, but, now the problem has come to 10.7.4...after less than 24 hours and the browsers being quirky tell me perhaps it's not just a Safari problem. I also upgraded to Adobe Flash 11. in this process ( before I had the issues with the video). I truly will appreciate all help. Thanks, Thomas

Both my laptop and desktop tend to use up all the memory (4 GB) if I leave them overnight. Word, Mail, and my CRM all grow to 200 MB+, Chrome uses 200 MB plus 40-80 MB per window, and in the mornng there's only 30-40 MB available.
