Depreciation calculation for Indian Tax Depreciation Area - Fixed Assets

Can any one of you kindly advice how to setup the Multi levels methods and Period controls for Tax Depreciation key in Indian Tax Depreciation area.
My Leading ledger Fiscal year: Jan u2013 Dec (Year dependend)
And Non-leading ledger (India) Fiscal year: April u2013 March (Year dependend)
I was able to post correct depreciation for leading and non-leading ledger Depreciation areas with a stated percentage. But the calculation of Tax depreciation area is incorrect.
As per client requirement, Tax depreciation area is setup only reporting purpose and no Depreciation posting.
Required Depreciation Calculation for Tax Depreciation Area:
For Acquires & Additions,
Rule1:
If it is >=180 days (as per Non-leading ledger Fiscal year) the system should calculate depreciation as stated percentage. Eg: 10%
Rule2:
If it is <180 days (as per Non-leading ledger Fiscal year) the system should calculate depreciation of 50% on stated percentage. Eg: Stated percentage is 10%, then it should be 5%.
Early responses will be appreciated.
Thanks much for the help.

Tax Depreciation Calculation for Malaysia

Hi Guys,
We have a requirement to calculate Tax Depreciation for Malaysia with reference to the Capital Allowance.The scenario is like this:
For Asset Class say Office Equipments Initial Allowance is 20% and Annual Allowance is 10%
That means depreciation will be calculated @20% on the acquisition value immediately upon acquisition for one time. Again depreciation @10% per annum will be calculated on the acquisition value for the entire useful life of the asset from the date of acquisition.
Example: Asset is capitalised at MYR 10,000 on 1.1.2010
First Initial Depreciation would be: 20% on 10000= 2000
Annual Depreciation for 2010 would be : 10% on 10000= 1000 and this will be same for next 8 years.
Depreciation Method is SLM
In this case changeover should happen within the year.
Can you please suggest how to create a depreciation key in SAP for this.
Early respponse would be appreciated.
Regards,
Chandra

Hi Chandra,
Have you found the solution for this scenario?
Thanks

Wrong depreciation calculated for base value 04 + EA-FIN activated

Hi,
after activating EA-FIN, depreciation for assets using base value 04 (= half of replacement value) is calculated wrong.
While AW01 for a particular asset shows depreciation values based on the FULL replacement value (like it would be base value 03) AW01_AFAR (the u201Coldu201D asset explorer) shows the correct depreciation for base value 04.
The wrong base value can also be seen using the "display depreciation calculation" button in both transactions.
There are no enhancements for base value determination active.
I didnu2019t find any SAPNET notes nor SCN entries regarding this case, any ideas?
Best regards, Christian

For what it's worth, I did a search and didn't find anything either.
It sounds like you've already tried this, but if the base value (the actual $$ value) is different in the trace on both tcodes then you have a problem. I would be sure to recalculate the values when you enter AW01 and AW01_AFAR to ensure that it's correct before looking at the trace.
The formula for the replacement value is:
( u_ganlc-kansw + u_ganlc-answl +
               u_ganlc-kmafa + u_ganlc-mafav + u_ganlc-zusma +
               u_ganlc-mafam + u_ganlc-mafal +
               u_ganlc-kaufw + u_ganlc-aufwv +
               u_ganlc-aufwp + u_ganlc-aufwl ) / 2 .
I'd look at ANLC for the asset and do the calculation yourself to confirm the value.
You've probably done all of that so I predict an OSS message in your future !

Asset depreciation calculation for prevous year when legacy data transfere

Hello,
Asset Legacy Data transfer has made as on 31.12.2006. so, for the first period asset depreciation calculation has done wrongly i.e. on the first period of 2007. but it was not noticed at that point of time, now after 2 years, the cumulative difference is coming out very big.
for 1st period, in Asset Value Tab of AS03, for period 01 , 2007 when i am checking right now it shows for dep. Area 01 right now that Amt to be post (14.48) instead of that in the next line for Dep. area 20 and in the next line it shows, Amt. to be posted ( -0.28). hence, for next period only differnce amount is posted in G/L side instead of actual it should be posted as 14.76.
so, now because of this error, my G/L and AA sides are not matching up.
eventhough i post manual reversal entry via FB01, when i will run ABST2 there will be problem.
if i run manual unplanned depreciation, then will my problem of not matching of Asset side and GL side will be solved. ?
also, please provide suggestion from your end in order to solve this issue.
Thanking you for your help.
Jigs.

We cannot post any depreciation to previous fiscal year 2008 as no planned depreciation is envisaged for the previous year 2008. The transfer date for Legacy asset data transfer is maintained as 12/31/2008 and takeover values are uploaded accordingly. Hence, 2009 is a first year for Asset Accounting of the company code.
However, Depreciation posting program checks for previous period log while executing for the current period. The logs are stored in u201CTABAu201D table. For new company code there will not be any entries in TABA table.
Due to missing functionality, System is checking for previous year depreciation posting logs even though the current fiscal year is first year for planned depreciation and giving error message AA 687.
As per SAP Note 144441 this error can be rectified with the help of correction program ZACORR_TABA_ENTRY_CREATE.
Steps to Rectify the Error:
1. Copy correction program from SAP Note 144441 into SAP System.
2. Execute the program with transaction code SA38
3. Check the values in test mode
4. If the table is updated with documennt number , remove the test mode tick and execute again
5. Execute the deprecation

Wrong depreciation calculation for upload assets

Hi
I am uploading for US company with FY as Jan to December.
I have to upload assets with value as on 31stJuly 2010. It means SAP should calculate depreciation from August 2010.
Depreciation is on life basis
One asset purchased on 01.11.2009 with Value $ 585.59. WDV as on 31st July is 355.21. Total life is 23months. In AS91, depn start date is 01.11.2009 with useful life as 01 year and 11 period. In expired life, its showing as 94 under period column.
Now in asset transfer config, i gave the transfer date as 31.07.2010 and last period of depreciation in previous system, i gave it as 7th period of year 2010 (ie. July 2010)
Now when i saw depreciation in AW01n for august 2010, it shows that remaining depreciation is fully written off in august 2010.
Its not flowing to next month.
Any idea why is writing off depreciation fully in next month itself

Hi..
After transfer old asset to new asset system automatically transfer all the balance to the new asset including depreciation Up to July
After that please check in the new asset master in the depreciation area tab depreciation start date...it must be 1st August
So based on that date depreciation will be calculate
I hope you will get some idea based on this suggestions.
Thanks and Regards

UDF for monitoring Repair cost of fixed assets

Hi All,
Can you guide me how to populate a UDF at Invoice level with information from Fixed Assets (Add-on) Master? I am trying to monitor repair costs for existing fixed assets. My client wants to see how much repair cost has been incurred against a particular fixed asset.
Any suggestions?

Hi Asim,
If you can query Fixed Assets Master directly, yon could create UDF just like other UDF under Marketing Documents Title. A FMS then can be used to get the data from the related table.
Thanks,
Gordon

Wrong base amount calculation for entry tax

Hi,
We want to capture entry tax in PO with condition type ENT1. The issue appearing for the condition is that the Base value calculated to calculating the ENT1 is (Base Value + Excise + 2 * VAT). Where as the propser calculation should be (Base Value + Excise + VAT).
For example -
Base Value - 1000
Excise (BED + ECS + SECESS) - 10.3
VAT (4%) - 4
Sub Total - 1014.30
Entry tax (2%) - 20.29
Where the entry tax getting calculated is 20.37 considering VAT as 8 (2 * 4). We want the entry tax as 20.29.
How can we achieve this?

Prashant

Hi Vikas,
Please check in OBQ3 what is the "From" field of JEC1 and JSEP. This should be the step denoting JMOP.

Calculation of Tax Depreciation - India

Hi,
We are following the New GL Accounting setup to our US based client in India.
My Leading Ledger (US) is Jan u2013 Dec and Non-leading Ledger (India) is April u2013 March.
We also created different Fiscal Year variants (Year Dependent) as S1 and IN for both the Co codes.
I have defined and activated Non-leading ledger for India Company code.
All the transactions were posting correctly as per Leading and Non-leading ledgers except Tax Depreciation in Fixed Assets.
I was able to post correct depreciation for India Company Act Depreciation area with a stated percentage. But the Tax depreciation area calculation is incorrect.
Required Depreciation Calculation for Tax Depreciation Area as below:
For Acquires & Additions:
Rule1: If it is >=180 days (as per Non-leading ledger Fiscal year) the system should calculate depreciation as stated percentage. Eg: 10%
Rule2:
If it is <180 days (as per Non-leading ledger Fiscal year) the system should calculate depreciation of 50% on stated percentage. Eg: Stated percentage is 10%, then it should be 5%.
I already copied India standard setting IT & NL to my fiscal year variant in Calender assignments of Period controls. But when I tried to post the Tax Depreciation in the month of March as per Non-leading ledger, the system is calculating full Depreciation as per Rule1 instead of 50% of stated Percentage in Rule2.
Can any one of you kindly advice how to setup the Multi levels methods and Period controls for Tax Depreciation key in Indian Tax Depreciation area as per above requirement. I have been working on this since one week. Please help me.
Thanks for the help.

JBC

I am not sure if this work.. but give it a try.
In your multi-level method line 1 put Acq yr = 9999, Year = 999, Per = 6, Percent = 50
line 2 put Acq yr = 9999, Year = 999, Per = 12, Percent = 10
Now what i dont understand from your question is that is this rule for the first acquisition year only?
If so, also try with Acq yr = 9999, Year = 1 (so only the first acq yr will get calculated based on the percentage).
Try this in your sandbox and let me know if it works or not!!

Config of Group assets - Tax Depreciation Calculation : India

Dear Seniors,
can you please explain the configuration of the Group assets and how exactly the tax depreciation calculation in India happens for the individual assets with scheme of entries.
Thanks and Regards
Sathish

Hi,
In India, depreciation on assets for the purpose of computation of net income as per the Income Tax (IT) Act 1961 is calculated over a block of assets instead of individual assets as allowed under the Companies Act 1956. Asset acquisitions and retirements are managed over the block level. The IT Act prescribes certain rates of depreciation to be used under the Written down Value (WDV) method over these asset blocks to compute depreciation.
The following are the customization settings that may be followed in the R/3 system in order to manage your assets in the income tax depreciation area.
1. Copy the standard chart of depreciation 0IN as provided by SAP and create your own chart of depreciation.
2. Use the depreciation area 15 for the purpose of management of assets under the IT Act. Make it statistical in nature. (Reference Transaction Code: OADB). Do not check the box negative net book value.
3. Specify that the Income Tax depreciation area takes over the APC from the book but not make it identical (Reference Transaction Code: OABC).
4. Create an asset class for the purpose of income tax blocks. This asset class will be used to create only group assets. (Reference Transaction Code: OAOA)
5. Specify that the depreciation area for income tax can be managed only for group assets. (Reference Transaction Code: OAYM). This would mean that depreciation for this depreciation area would be computed only at group asset level.
6. Specify that the asset class defined in (b) above will be used for creating group assets only. (Reference Transaction Code: OAAX)
7. Two period control methods (IT and NL) have been defined in the system for determination of start or the end of depreciation calculation at the time of a fixed asset acquisition or retirement. You may use these period control methods while creating the depreciation keys for the purpose of IT depreciation.
Calendar assignments have been made for the above mentioned period control methods in order to reflect valuation requirements as per the Income Tax Act (Transaction Code: OAVH). You may create your own period control methods depending on the fiscal year variant you use. The period control methods supplied are based on the fiscal year variant V3.
8. Depreciation Keys: The following depreciation keys have been created in the system. They correspond to the income tax blocks that are prescribed under Indian tax laws. They are as below:
Depreciation Keys:
1. IN1 - Tax Depreciation - 5% -
I Hope it will give you some basic guidance.
