Hi,
this is the normal system behavior.
Up to ERP2005 you have the possibility to make an interval in order to calculate current month onwards.

Adjust the depreciation amount in posted period

Hi Experts,
I've changed one of my asset depreciation key from 20% to 10% straight line method. The changes is done in period 6. I have run AFAR for this changes.
Let say my planned depreciation was 1000 (for 20% dep. key) and now the new depreciation would be 500 (for 10% dep key). I would like the depreciation to be recalculate in period 1 (i.e 1000 minus 500) and distribute the amount evenly throughout the period (period 1 to 6). Is it possible?
I've run AFAB in planned mode and the changes (lump sum) will only take places on next period (period 7). When i execute AFAB in restart mode (period 1), the error says restart is not possible for period 1.
Appreciate your advise.

Hi Nana,
Have a look also at KBA 1534331 - RAPOST2000 - How to post 'planned depreciation' for
subsequent posting or depreciation change in same period
This knowledge base article describes the situation how the system will pick up the depreciation adjustment when a change in depreciation terms (e.g. change of depreciation key) has been made.
As Mukthar is pointing out, if you have run depreciation already (ordinary planned depreciation run in AFAB), and afterwards you make a change, you can start a repeat run for that very same period again and it will adjust the value equally to all periods going forward.
You find in this KBA also an attachment which outlines an example.
I hope this helps further in understanding how depreciation is adjusted after a change of depreciation terms.
Best regards,
Brigitte

Depreciation Recalculation after control period change in a depr. key

Hi gurus,
I've a problem with dep recalculation:
for a specific dep.key (with Multilev.method= 20%, constant) the control period is 06/06/06/06 so the starting dep date is at the begin of the year. For example if I post (in 2009) 100 for an asset the depreciation is 20 for every year.
Now I need to have a half depreciation in the first year of useful life (even if in 2009, yet open) so I've changed the control period in 07/06/06/06.
My problem is that for assets posted before this change in the key, the planned depreciation is not changed in 10 but is 20 again, even if I run AFAR.
How can I do to change the planned depreciation for asset posted before the control period change?
TNX in advance
Principey

Hi Sachin,
Tnx for your response.
unfortunely also this method doesn't work.
Now I'm tryng to reach my goal (set half depreciation in the acquisition year -also for assets already posted-) with a new way:
I've set again the period control at 06/06/06/06 changing now the multilevel method defining two levels:
Year: 0 > Percentage: 20%> Reduction: 50%
Year: 999 > Percentage: 20%> Reduction:0
In this way AFAR appears working but I'm testing to find problems side.
Any suggestions?
TNX

Depreciation % Change

In our case, we have to chage the depreciation % of one asset class. Now already depreciation has been posted for the last three periods. If I change the % now, can I repeat the depreciation posting for all the last three periods ?

hi
pdepending on the method you choose 'catchup' or 'smothing' , the depreciation for the future periods would changed.
in the smoothing , the depreciation would be distributed across the useful life of the assets .
in the catchup, the excess depreciation would be charged upfront in the next period and the remaining periods shall get calcuated accordingly,

Depreciation Posting Run for Period 02 in 2008

Dear All,
I have closed the 2007 fiscal year for fixed assets and executed the fiscal year change successfully. I have also executed the depreciation run for January period 01 without any errors, however, when I attempted to execute the depreciation run for February (period 01), I keep on getting this error message:
_Test run was terminated. No documents were created in this run_
Upon further investigation, I got this long text for the error message:
In the number range interval for the document type for posting depreciation, a document has been posted which was not created within the framework of depreciation posting. The last document posted by depreciation posting was assigned the number.
I have checked my number ranges and there is really no problem there.
Can somebody please help me as we need to close the financial books for period 02 and would not be able to do this until the completion of depreciation run.
Thank you in advance for your kind assistance

Check first wht is the posting period varient assign and than check all the assignments...including the number ranges and document types.
than try to run it again
hope it works

Planned depreciation value for each period

Hi,
Where can I get the planned depreciation value for each period? I need the fields for customised report.
Thank you

Hi,
You can get the dep planned values for the each period by using SAP standard report S_ALR_87012936.
In the selection screen of that report, click on All selections button on application tool bar. Then you will be able to see the all the available fields for selection.
Choose evaluation period as Month.
Now execute it. After getting output, you need to go for change layout and adopt fileds like Dep 01-2010, Dep 02-2010, Dep 03-2010....Etc till Dep 12-2010.
This will fix your requirement.
Thanks,

Recalculation of Depreciation for the previous periods

Hi All,
I am new to this forum, I have one query regarding the recalculation of depreciation.
Client wants to increase the life of the asset and depreciation change should be effected from 01/07/2010 (FY start). Depreciation has already posted from July to December 2010. We are following SLM & WDV methods.
I know we have the options like smoothing and catchup. But client wants to update/post to respective periods and in AW01N for each period it should show the depreciation as per the change in life of the asset.
It would be of great help, if you look into this matter.
Thanks in advance
Kind regards
Shanid

Hi Viswa,
Thank you for your prompt reply. I tried with your answer, when I ran AFAB with posting period 1, I am getting below error.
"You want to carry out a repeat depreciation posting run in period 001. However, the last posting run was for period 006.
Start the repeat run again using period 006".
Kind Regards
Shanid

Smoothing showing planning depreciation to the earlier periods

Hi All,
Scenario: Asset acquisition date       : Jan,01,2009
               Ordinary depreciation date : April,01.2009
               Acquisition value               : 500000
               Rate of Depreciation          : 20%
When i don't select smoothing the depreciation is showing correctly like the depreciation for the first 3months is including in the month of April (Catchup)
But when i select Smoothing the depreciation is planning from Jan month to Dec month. But the depreciation for the first 3 months should be distribute to the remaining periods..right?
Is there any other setting i missed here. Kindly let me know.
Thanks
Shankar

Eduardo,
I have never seen that the use from Smoothing was useful or really necessary.
In 90% of the cases you can use straitline depreciation or multilevel with a %.
For tax it is always based on a fiscal year, and perhaps in some cases like you example not so nice for cost accounting.
The basis of the calculation is in SAP based on a fiscal year, Say in your case the use-full live is 5 years and the capitalize an asset in the fiscal year like May and you have done the depreciation run for April,
Your case One that begins depreciates the entire yearly value, no matter on what date it was placed in service,
When the depreciation start date is 01-01-2009 the the depreciation in May is for the periods January to May (5 Months)
Your Case the other that begins to depreciate on the month of capitalization
When the depreciation start date is 01-05-2009 the the depreciation in May is for the period May (1 Months)
When you make the first posting, the field Capitalization is filled in with the asset value date you used in the posting and based on the period control rule in the key the depreciation start date is filled in,
In your cases you can use 2 simulair depreciation keys like LINR with a different period control rule,
When you fill in the depreciation start date manual then that is that the date for the depreciation start
When the standard SAP depreciation rules not fit it is possible to create your own depreciation rules

Error: No depreciation posting required in period 009 (current period)

Hi,
I am getting error " No depreciation posting required in period 009" and 009 is my current period.
The description of the error says " Do depreciation is posted, since according to the posting cycle no postings are required in this period". In fact this is the first time i am running depreciation. I want to post the depreciation for 1st period. More over i could not able to see the planned values in asset explorer also.
Whenever i am entering this asset in the asset explorer it is giving the above error. But while i run the depreciation its not giving any error. When i check in spool to view the depreciation, its giving msg as "List contains no data" check error log.
Could anyone help me in resolving this error. what could be the reason for this error.
Thanks
Sabera

Hi,
I checked in TABA table, its showing that till 9 the period depreciation has been posted. But i have not posted the depreciation. If it is posted, then it has to show in the planned values as posted, but its showing as "No depreciation" and its not even showing the depreciation for other periods. Could you able to clear this query? I wonder why it is giving this kind of error.

Sabera

In oneasset class i have created 2 assets by using of aso1 after that i acquired one asset for that i run the depreciation for first 5 periods, it has been showing depreciation for those period but if i am trying to run the depreciation for second asset i

in on asset class i have created 2 assets by using of aso1 after that i acquired one asset for that i run the depreciation for first 5 periods, it has been showing depreciation for those period but if i am trying to run the depreciation for second asset it is not showing first 5 periods why it is not showing? Is there any reason?

Hi
Repeat run you can do only for the last depreciation period. For the asset which you are tryin to post depreciation from July to Jan, please check the asset value date which you have given while posting the transactions or in the asset master.
If the asset value date is in July, then deprecaition from July - Jan will get posted in the current month depreciation in total. You will not be able to post depreciation individually month wise using AFAB.

Depreciation planned for wrong period

Dear All,
In Asset Master the depreciation is settle to start in 01.10.2010, I already run depreciations for all assets in period 10 but not for period 11.
I only acquired the asset after running depreciation for period 10, so in AFAB I have to run depreciation again for period 10 in "repeat" mode right?
Problem is...when I do that, the outcome is zero as if I didn´t make a new acquisition for that period, after that I went to asset explorer (AW01N) and in tab "Posted values" depreciations only starts in period 11.
Example (of what is shown in asset in AW01N):
Acquisition value: 1000 $
Acquisition date: 15.10.2010
Dep. start date: 01.10.2010 (period 10 already been run)
Planned values:
- period 11: 50 $
- period 12: 25 $
Why depreciation doesn´t starts in period 10? Instead period 11 "eats" values from period 10. I want to run again period 10 but it doesn´t have values. Can anyone tell me why this happens?
Thanks in advance,
MG.

Hi,
You can execute depreciation again for period 10 with repeat option.

Depreciation run for past period

Hello
I have run the depreciation for period 1,2,3,4 and 5....

now i am acquired it on 1st of april.......and also trying to run depreciation for period 1 and system is not allowing it....

Hi,
system will post the depreciation for period 1,2,3 & 4 in period 5. and period 6 onwards it will calculate normal depreciation.
for example. if depreciation for a particular asset is as below.
period 1 : 1000
period 2 : 1000
period 3 : 1000
period 4 : 1000
period 5 : 1000
period 6 : 1000
system will post depreciation of 5000 in period 5 nd there are 1000 will be posted.

ESS Workplace - Change Default Selection Period

Hi All,
We are on 4.6C, using Workplace 2.1.1 on ESS.
Through ESS, we want to display all items under "SAP Office -> Outbox -> Started Workflows" (and also "Work Items Executed by Me").
The default seems to be 30days.
Our SAP Office (Workplace) on ESS does not have any buttons or toolbar options for users to change the "Selection Period".
My question: Where is this default period set? How can I change it for ESS (eg to be 90 days instead of 30days)?
Is there a setting in the IMG (SPRO)?
Please, I really hope you can help.
Cheers,
Tom

Hi Tom,
unfortunatelly this function is hard coded in BWSP, there is no option to change the date in customizing or somewhere else, only in coding:
       l_seldate = sy-datum - 30.
            CALL FUNCTION 'SWI_OUTBOX_CREATE'
                 EXPORTING
                      seldate      = l_seldate
                      folrg        = w1_fol
                 TABLES
                      worklist     = worklist
              STATUSFILTER =
                 EXCEPTIONS
                      READ_FAILED = 1
                      OTHERS       = 2
The problem that BWSP is not developed in the future, what you can do is to change the standard... SAP does not recommend to do thatof course.
I hope I could help you!
Cheers,
Tibor

Capital Investment Area was posted Depreciations in an incorrect period

Hi ,
Capital Investment Area was posted Depreciations in an incorrect period, they skip a period.
Can you determine if we can reverse those postings so that they can post in the correct period?
Would appreciate your fastest reply.
Regards
Prasad

All,
Thanks for your answers, the solution would appear to be that the commitments have been accidentally carried forward into 2010 Fiscal instead of 2009 fiscal.
There are no Invoice plans set up on the PO's, thanks for that suggestion though.
The reversal in KSCF does not work and produces an ST22 error dump on our system.
SAP note 971411 appears to fix the error so we will implement the note and hopefully be able to reverse out the commitment.
Thanks to all and if I can assist you FI guys with MM answers I will
