Depreciation Key for Capital Leasehold Improvement

Hi Everyone
I need your help in creating the depreciation key for the Capital leasehold improvemnet assets. I need to specify a specific percentage rate for each period of the first year to calculate depreciation (if asset is acquired in period 1, rate x. If asset is acquired in period 2, then rate y and so on). From year 2-39, it is a constant rate of depreciation.
I created a multilevel method by specifying that year 1, base level 01, rate is 2.461
Year 39, base level 01, rate is 2.564.
I assigned it to the depreciation key with Base method 0012, Period control 002, and the multilevel method that I created. When I post an asset acquisition and use this key for Asset, the amounts for year 1 & 2 are not correct. Second year is taking part of percentage from the first year and the first year is trying to calculate the depreciation for the whole year despite the fact that asset was capitalized in February.
Can someone help me with step-by-step details to create this key?
I appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Shalu

  • Changing Depreciation Key for Tax for closed fiscal years -

    Hello,
    Hoping someone can help me with this question - Is it possible to change the depreciation key for closed fiscal years - we need to change it for Tax - books. And if yes - does it mean we need to open closed fiscal years ??

  • After AFAB, I've changed depreciation key for an asset from 20% to 0%

    Hi All,
    I've posted depreciation (AFAB) for periods from 01 to 04 (Depreciation Area 20).
    Later I've changed the depreciation key for an asset from 20% to 0%.
    In my test SAP allows me to update depreciation data only in the period 05 (for previous data).
    Is there the way to repete the depreciation posted in the periods from 01 to 04!
    Cluo d anyone help me??
    Thanks

    Rossi,
    Since you have already posted the depreciation for the periods 01 to 04, the system assumes that there are no postings pending for those periods and hence shows the recalculated depreciation in period 05. But you can do the repeat depreciation run using AFAB transaction code. You can try them for period 04 and the entire depreciation posted till 04 will get charged in Period 04 itself.

  • After 2 years want to change depreciation key for a asset

    Hi,
    For a particular asset we want to change depreciation key for this asset already we have posted depreciation for 2 years. After 2 years user realizes they are using wrong depreciation key now they want to change depreciation key for a particular asset.  In new financial year till now they have not posted depreciation .I just want to now what is the impact of this changes how we will adjust the value in future because previously they are calculating depreciation  1.63% now they want to calculate depreciation 3.33 % can any one tell me about the future impact of asset.
    How we will adjust the value?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Neha

    Hi,
    Does your user wants to post the depreciation for closed Fiscal years?
    If yes First calculate unplanned depreciation for the difference up to the last closed fiscal year and post in the current year.
    Now after posting this then change the depreciation key in the asset master and in the next run the system identifies the difference between posted value with the old Key and teh correct key and adjusts the difference in the current period depreciation run.
    If the user don't want to post the values of the previous years, change the key in asset master so that the difference in the depreciation from the start of the fiscal year is adjusted in the current period.
    Future impact if the option is second the asset life will be more when compared to the actual life. In first case there is no effect.
    Provide Business with these two solutions and they have to choose between the options.

  • Which depreciation key is eligible for mid-month convention in SAP?

    Dear Experts,
    I am looking for the depreciation key for mid-month convention for USA in SAP standard system.
    Do you know what key is for this convention?
    Thanks.
    BR,
    Chris Kim

    Dear sapfincon,
    Thank you for your comment.
    When I looked at those depreciation keys, LINA/LINK/LINR, those period control are 007 or 008.
    In case of acquisition for those period controls, "007" has "04" (First year convention at half year start date) and "008" "01" (Pro rata at period start date).
    I don't think these "04" and "01" stand for mid-month convention.
    I assume the period control "02" (Pro rata upto mid-period at period start date) is for mid-month convention.
    What do you think about this?
    Thanks again.

  • Depreciation key issue

    Hi Gurus,
    we have 100 assets,at the time of creation of asset master data,every time we have to give the depreciation key manually or is there any additional settings we have to do.
    regards
    jana

    Hi!
    Kindly read F1 help on field XDAILY in the customizing of the            
    depreciation key for an explanation :                                                                               
    The "depreciation to the day" function becomes active for an asset as    
    soon as the asset has a corresponding depreciation key and the asset is  
    capitalized (posted to). Once this takes place, it is no longer possible 
    to switch off this function for the asset, even if you change the        
    depreciation key. On the other hand, it is not possible to activate this 
    function for an asset after it has already been capitalized using a      
    different depreciation key.                                                                               
    Please consider also note 1036569 in case the error is not justified     
    according to the above information. However, from your attachment I      
    gather that you are trying to change depreciation key in ara 01,         
    hence note 1036569 may not be the solution either.

  • Link-Group Asset Class, Depreciation Area & Depreciation Key

    Dear Experts,
    I am new to FI-AA Customization & have a basic query about Group Asset Concept.
    I am working on Ecc 6.0 & for Country India.
    I want to create Group Asset for calculation of Depreciation as per Income Tax Act.  Hence there is just one Depreciation Area (for Group Assets) , but the Depreciation keys are different.  E.d IN1, IN2 etc. (Country Version India)
    Now the questions are :
    1) Do we need to create different Asset Class for different Group Assets or to create just 1 Asset Class for all Group Assets.
    E.g. I want to calculate Depreciation As per income Tax Act on Gross Block of Building, Furniture & Fixture, Motor Car, Vehicles etc. So I need to create separate Group Asset Class for each one of above or just to create one Group Asset Class.
    2) If we need to create just one Asset Class for all Group Assets; how to maintain a Depreciation Key in OAYZ as there are more than 1 Depreciation Keys?
    3) is there any other method / functionality to calculate Depreciation as per income Tax Act or Group Asset is the only functionality?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Reshma

    Dear,
    Reshma.
    Looking at your Questions let us take explanation for Group Assets :-
    1 ) We need to create new different asset class for Group Class in OAOA. Then permit the depreciation area for only Group Asset in OAYM as it is in your current scenario India  is Depreciation Area 15 Just select your company code in OAYM and check the Grp Asset field for respective area 15. Then go to OAAX here we have to maintain the assets classes particularly for Group Assets. So check your Group Asset classes for Group Assets. Cerate different Group asset classes for your said requirement.
    In these depreciation areas, it is then possible to make an assignment to a group asset.  You make this assignment in the specifications for the depreciation area in the asset master record.  When you post an acquisition to this kind of asset, the system duplicates the line items from this depreciation area on the given group asset.
    2 ) According to me you have to create different depreciation keys for Group Asset classes. Assign the Depreciation keys to your newly created Group Asset Classes in OAYZ and make sure you are deactivating 01 area which is Book Depreciation area.
    3 ) As far as I know this is the only functionality available to handle Group Assets. How ever SAP does not have any standard Group Assets functionality. SAP does not supply asset classes to be used solely for group assets. It is we have to determine as per varying Business Process.
    I hope this will clear your doubt makes you to understand. Please revert back for further clarification. Welcome you.

  • Change of Depreciation key - Planned Depreciation

    Dear All,
    We are having the scenario that, when we change the depreciation key for the asset, the system issues the warning message and still we need to change that.
    However the asset has been posted to already. As a result of changing the depreciation key, the planned depreciation in open fiscal years will be recalculated.
    How do we avoid to recalculate the planned depreciaiton for the asset when we change the depreciation key.
    Because everytime we need to stop depreciation for a number of assets and thus change of depre.key is required.
    I request you to all, please kindly provide your values.
    Regards,
    Ran.

    Hi Friend,
    It is possible to change the depreciation key, but you can not avoid Planned Dep. Posting Run. As the system considers that it has to re-run.
    According to me, you should create the new depreciation Area for such kind of assets and you should go for manual depreciation. Because it is not reasonable to change the depreciation key everytime.
    Regards,
    Jigar

  • Deprection keys for IFRS

    Dear Experts,
    We are using Deprecation 40 for IFRS. In IFRS point of deprecation will calculate on the basis of useful life (for example 1years, 3 years, 33 years etc).
    In the above case kindly tell me how I have to configure the calculation method (Presently we are using Multilevel method) and deprecation keys for IFRS.
    For IFRS purpose we have copied the for the exiting deprecation area 41 and changed the name as 40-IFRS.
    In the above case what are the settings I have do for IFRS (For example Acquisition value, Net book value, Investment grants etc)
    Regards,
    Venkataswamy

    Hi Ajay
    Thanks for your early response
    When i was creating the depreciation key for IFRS system is giving the below warning messege
    SMI S18 N 1 : Dep. after planned life end incompatible with dep. over rem. life
    Message no. ACRSL016
    Diagnosis
    A depreciation method over the remaining useful life is only mathematically logical during the useful life of the asset. Transactions that take place after the useful life is expired can no longer be depreciated using this method.
    This entry makes sense only if depreciation ends during the fiscal year, and you entered a changeover method.
    Procedure
    Check if depreciation ends in the course of the fiscal year, and if a changeover method was entered. Otherwise, change the "Rem.Life" (calculate percentage from remaining life) indicator in multi-level method S30 or change the "Dep. after plnd.life end" (Depreciation after planned life end) indicator in base method 0014. The incorrect entry is in SMI S18 N 1 (chart of depreciation, depreciation key, depreciation type, depreciation phase).
    Kindly help me on this

  • Depr. key for daily depreciation

    Hello All,
    I have deferrals in AA and daily depreciation for them.  For this purpose I copied the existent standard depreciation key and put in AFAMA checkbox Depreciation to the day.
    So, for example, I have an asset, bought on 14.10.2009, the value is 140.000 USD, useful life is 14 months (till to 14.12.2009). The depreciation for October should be: 5.667 for other months 10.000 and for December 4.333.
    But system does not account this check box and plan depreciation in October as in usual month.

    Thank you, you were right!
    BUT
    when I create a new asset with capitilization date of 20.02.2009 and value 1300$ for 91 day (3month) system planed:
    1 J -           0.00
    2 F -           85.71-
    3 M -           400.00-
    4 A -           428.58-
    5 M -           385.71-
    6 J -           0.00
    7 J -           0.00
    8 A -           0.00
    9 S -           0.00
    10 O -           0.00
    11 N -           0.00
    12 D -           0.00
    TOTAL:           1,300.00-
    But if we make manually calculations, system should planned
    for February: 1300$:91d(28d-20d)=14,28$8d=114,24 $
    for March: 31d14,28$=442,68 $*
    for April: 30d14,28$=428,4 $*
    for May: 22d14,28$=314,16 $*
    TOTAL: 1299,48
    Why do not system plan such figures and what to customize for this?
