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

FICO : Asset Accounting - Depreciation Run Issue

Dear Friends,
I have an issue in asset accounting.
Let me explain the actual background of this issue.
1. I created a new company code(2000) by copying the existing one(1000 along with the closed year 2009
2. After that when i was trying to post acquisition for an asset i got the below error
You cannot post to asset in company code 2000 fiscal year 2011
3. Then i closed the year 2010 and opened 2011, it allowed me to post in the month of june
4. Now i am trying to run the depreciation for june, its giving the below error.
According to posting cycle, you should post period 001 next
5. What could be the reason for this error , is it the correct procedure what i am doing it now?
Please help if someone has an idea about that
Thanks ,
Perumal.

Hi,
You can get the solution if you double click the error message.
Please note that depreciation of current month can only be posted if the depreciation dycles till the previous month is completed. Coming to your case, you have opened the year 2011 and trying to post depreciation for period 6. You need to run the depreciation cycles from period 1 to 5 before trying to post for period 6.

Asset Accounting: Lineal Depreciation

Hey!
I have implanted the module of Asset Accounting. We have defined a lineal depreciation Key for some assets. But when we enter to the Asset explorer (AW01N), we can see that we have different values for each posting period (the posting periods are defined in months). I think this is because each month have diferente days so Sap calculate different values. We think that SAP is considering if the month has 31 days or 30 days.
I want the depreciation to be calculated with the same value each month. In what point of the cuztomizing I can define this?
Thank you in advance,
Leyre

Pls check the settings for the period control methods where you can define the no.of days with FV, based on the days wise you can restrict the depreciation amounts calulation, but the specific amounts option will not be available to serve your purpose.
Let me know for any further info.

How to delete depreciation areas when a posting is made in asset accounting

Hi All,
We are implementing asset accounting to few of our company codes as a new company code start up project. We have opened depreciation areas for tax for one company code and found that we are not going to use this company code for asset accounting.
We have already opened 2 depreciation areas one for tax and the other as difference between book and tax depr in our development client. One of our member has created an asset and posted values to it. Now, we were told that we dont need to open the depreciation areas. When i am trying to delete it system giving error message saying you cannot delete the derived depr as the values have already been posted.
Please advice how i should proceed with the above issue for deleting the depreciation areas. Your help is much appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Hi Rose,
For the below mentioned issue do the following:
1) reset all the depreciation data ( t code OAGL)
2) reset all the asset account co code data (t code OABL)
then u can go and delete the depreciation areas.

Clarification Regarding Asset Accounting Chart of Depreciation Copy

Hi,
We have a company code called ACT
For that we have a chart of depreciation assigned is ACT
Number Ranges are 1000000-1999999 (For Example)
Now we configured one more company code called RNC by Copying ACT company code and other settings from ACT company code only.
Clarification required - In Asset Accounting for Company code RNC we are plannint to assign chart of depreciation ACT as it is.
If we do like that - System will take the number ranges from the above ACT number ranges 1000000-1999999 ? or else system will take 1000000-1999999 number ranges from RNC company code? This is my doubt?
I think system will share the 1000000-1999999 number ranges in Asset accounting for both company codes ACT & RNC as we are using Same ACT chart of depreciation for Both company codes.
If we assign Same chart of Depreciation to both ACT and RNC company codes - Is it necessary to do any other configuration or no need to do any?
Kindly clarify my doubt
Thanks
Supriya

Hello,
Make sure that the both the company codes are in a single country before assigning the same chart of depreciation.
The number range of assets are defined at company code level. Meaning that you can have the same asset number in different company codes. The system will not share the number ranges across company codes.

Where we have to open and close posting periods in asset accounting

hi sap gurus
can anybody give where we have to open and close posting periods in asset accounting
thank you
venkatareddy

Hi Venkatareddy,
You make specifications for fiscal years and posting periods in the SAP R/3 System in Customizing for Financial Accounting. This is done in the fiscal year variant in the global parameters of the company code. These settings are, in general, also binding for Asset Accounting. The depreciation periods in Asset Accounting then correspond to the posting periods in Financial Accounting.<b> It is usually not necessary to create a separate fiscal year variant for Asset Accounting.</b>
The period control in the depreciation key determines the start and end of depreciation when asset transactions are posted . The period control determines the relationship between the calendar period in which the asset transaction is posted and the depreciation period.
These calendar periods are independent of the posting periods in Financial Accounting. The only restriction is that the beginning of the first calendar period and the end of the last calendar period defined in a period control have to match the start date and final date of the fiscal year in Financial Accounting.
Kindly let me know if this useful for you

Hi Krishna,
Thanks for your reply,But still I need some more clarifications please respond........
2) What is the importance of Recalculate value button in Asset Accounting?-
(A)recalculates depr when asset parameters are changed
Where it will be there as it(recalculate button) is not there in AFAB
3) Suppose I have 1000 assets, if I want to run depreciation only for 200 assets how can I do that?
(A)select those 200 and run depreciation
Here Assets Selection option is there only in test run not there in update run.
4) If suppose I have 5 Depreciation areas, I am able to see the book depreciation values only, where I can see the other depreciation values? If we cant see for which purpose we are using other depreciation areas? (A)use AW01N- you cans ee all dep areas
In AW01N only book depreciation values is displayed,how can I see other depreciation area values

Re - Process asset accounting year end process

Hi,
Case- XYZ company is already on K4 fiscal year variant, they want to switch from K4 (calendar year) to V3 (Non- calendar year). Standard SAP process is to create shortened fiscal year for 3 months. But this is only allowed if no entries posted in new fiscal year. This XYZ company is already in the month of Feb. How can we manage this situation in SAP. Asset accounting is implemented in the system. Planned depreciation has already been calculated for 12 months, how can we rewrite planed depreciation? and depreciation has been posted for one Jan 2011.
Plan 1- Keep K4 variant as it is and control this with the help of OB52 to restrict posting. This will allow them to run their day to day process with out any errors in fiscal year 2011
Plan 2 - Maintain K4 as shortened fiscal year and update table T093C to allow system to identify that this 2011 fiscal year is shortened fiscal year. but in both cases question remains what to do with planned depreciation of remaining 9 months?
Waiting for your feed back.
Thanks and Regards,
Sany..

Hi
The system will show you the list of Assets which are incomplete.
I think for the incomplete asset you have not assign the group asset.
Hence in AS02 transaction enter one by one the incomplete assets and complete the same. then run the AJAB transaction which will allow you to close the asset year.
if the answer is helpful kindly assign points
Thanks & Regards

Error - Asset Accounting

Hi All,
I have an Issue in Asset Accounting.Details are mentioned bellow. Pls help me with your advices to resolve this.
Fiscal year assigned for our Company Code is Z1 and it starts from April 2007 till March 2008. We have run the depreciation for 8 periods (i.e., from April 2007 to Dec 2007). After posting the depreciation for December 2008, Management has decided to change the fiscal year to April 2007 to Dec 2007. So that we will have the Calendar year as the Fiscal year from 2008 (jan 2008 to Dec 2008). So that i have change the posting periods by shortened the fiscal year.
As System calculates the depreciation for 12 months and it distributes into 12 periods in that year, postings are done for the first 9 months (Apr 2007 to Dec 2007). And there is balance of 3 months depreciation not posted in the system according to the system initial calculation. So while running the depreciation for 1st Posting Period of 2008 (jan 2008) system has shown error. And so that i have test run the depreciation (AFAB) for the December 2007 with selection of Repeat Run. Results of the test run shows as Amount Posted in Dec 2003 is with correct figures and amount to be posted is with the amount of the 3 months depreciation. So system is expected to post the 3 months Depreciation. Only then we could able to run the depreciation for January 2008.
But we are not required to post those 3 months depreciation in Dec 2007 as that is the last posting period in 2007 and we have already posted the depreciation for this month.
Pls help me to provide the solution to change the amounts which are shown in Amount to be posted column if i repeat run for Dec 2007.
Thanks in advance

Rao

Asset Accounting Reports - Can they be run for any selection of dates

Folks,
I have a query - in Asset Accounting, can I run any of the reports (for current fiscal year and closed fiscal years) for any selection of start and end dates? so for example, if I want to run the Asset history sheet for fiscal 2007 (which has been closed in my books), can I run this report for say the month of July 2007 (July 1-31, 2007)?
I was under the impression that asset reports for closed fiscal years could be run for the entire year ONLY!
An early response would be appreciated.
Thx,
Sameer Aroskar

Hi Sameer
I think I did answer this in other forum but anyway here you go again !
Select Transaction OARP >> Depreciation Lists >> RAGAFA01(Posted Depreciation) - Select this and Execute.
Select the require company codes and necessary parameters then under Settings select the Depreciation Posting Period e.g. 4 for the required Report date which can be last day of the month from the required previous years. eg 30.04.2007 etc.
Cheers !

Asset Accounting Doubts

Hi Experts
Can you please tell me how we can calculate tax for assets while doing depreciation.
what are the month-end & year-end activities in asset accounting.
what is the use of assigning cost center in AA.

Hi Venu,
Calculate taxes while running depreciation - Not sure why there is requirement to calculate taxes for depreciation run. If it is tax depreciation (as per income tax laws), you can have a separate depreciation area and assign depreciation key as per the law.
Month end and year end closing activity - You need to run depreciation monthly. If you have a non leading ledger, run ASKB to post to non-leading ledgers. Year end you need to run AJAB to close the year and then AJRW to do a fiscal year change.
Use of assigning cost center in AA - We do this to determine the responsibility center for the asset (where location is not used) as well to post depreciation to the correct cost center.
Hope this helps.
Thanks and Regards

Company Code (Fusion) Asset Accounting Legacy Migration

Hi SAP Experts
We are going to initiate a project where a company code Y will be fusionated to a company code X
Therefore only company code X will prevail at the end on the month.
This migration is made within the fiscal year (april 2015) with a calenda K4 (january to december)
Some balance migration is planned, however we have the following scenario:
Company code X has asset accounting component working since 2006
Company code Y does not have asset accounting component within SAP, posting are made directly to SAP (and depretiation calculation posting are made outside SAP)
We are planning to "transfer the values" from company code Y -> to the asset acccounting component from company code X
Due theese assets are not "new assets" but "legacy asset" how it should be the right steps?
We have identified two options so far:
a) As a "legacy transfer", (AS91) transaction (create legacy data)
Some SAP documentation refers to take care about the timing to made this; in our case is within the fiscal year
Also a "data transfer date" or "take over date" must be defined on table V_T093C_08 in order to identify a value date for the legacy transfer
IMG > Asset Accounting > Asset Data Transfer > Parameteres for Data Transfer > Date Specification
There are several prerequisites such as company code status allowed for data transfer, set the above date for data transfer and I think also set a period where the legacy company code finish their posting.
We suspect this is the second or third time the company code X has transfer legacy data.
Do you have experience managing this option within SAP?
What issues must be considered
We do not want to impact the existing fixed assets values and previous asset transfers values with our new asset transfer within the fiscal year.
b) As a "acquisition without a vendor" ABZON
I think this option does not required so much customizing, usign this option I think I should put the last value for the legacy asset accounting and set the initiation date for the new depretiation posting accordingly.
I suspect the disadvantage here is do not have a historical data, however may these is the secure path.
I notice using ABZON transaction I need to set an account determination call "Contra account: Acquisition value" that is defined on table V_T095_MASTER or customizing transaction AO90
For this option we are guessing which type account must be.
I think it should be a balance account (due no vendor is implied) however we are not sure about this point
Many thanks for your inputs and ideas
Fernando Luna

Hi Fernando Luna
For my perception, option 1 makes sense because you may need to check historical values as well as depreciation posted in legacy system. As you highlighted, the key point to use AS91 to take over legacy assets are below customizing:
IMG: Asset Accounting -> Asset Data Transfer -> Parameters for Data Transfer -> Date Specifications ->
=> Specify Transfer Date/Last Closed Fiscal Year
=> Specify Last Period Posted in Prv.System (Transf.During FY)
Above setting affecting legacy take-over only, it wouldn't affect existing asset including previous taken-over legacy assets. After finishing legacy asset migration, you may need to execute depreciation recalculation at company code level.
Hope this information is helpful.
Regards
George
