Depreciation Re-run

Dear Experts,
There are two scenarios, needed to be solved quite urgently.
Scenario A: 
A fixed asset depreciation will be run soon for December 2011 and due to incomplete documents at the time being, the finance user would like to re-run the depreciation after she has received the relevant asset invoices which are to be capitalized in year 2011.
As I understand that SAP allows you to execute depreciation re-run function only for the previous period, the period which you have last posted to.
However, for the first depreciation run, she will be posting to period 12 of 2011. However, the asset invoices will only be received and capitalized on the period 13, 2011.
My concern is that the depreciation re-run will only be posted to preiod 12 and if the assets are only capitalized on the preiod 13, will those said assets be capitalized and depreciated properly?
Scenario B: 
The finance user found out that after running the depreciation run, there are actually one more asset to be capitalized which is not included in the depreciation run. What will be the individual depreciation method if : -
1)     Asset is to be capitalized within 15 days (before year end closing)
2)     Asset is to be capitalized after 15 days (after year end closing)
Your urgent advices are needed.
Thank you in advance.

In Depreciation posting you have an option to do repeat run in AFAB, which means the depreciation will be calculated again and any difference in postings will be posted now. This can be done only for the last posted period.
Scenario 1
If you capitalise in period 13, 2011 with value date in period 12,2011, then while posting depreciation for period 13, system will post depreciation for period 12 and 13 together in period 13 i.e for two months together in the current period. Your depreciation will happen proper from the next month onwards.
But if you capitalise the asset with value date in period 13,2011 - your depreciation calculation will start only in period 13
Scenario 2
1. No individual depreciation method required. You can do AFAB in repeat run. Here depreciation will be posted only for those assets which was not posted in the planned run.
2. Depending on your value date/capitalisation date of the asset. If the asset is capitalised with prior period, then in current month depreciation, it will consider the value not posted for last month and post the value of current month + prior month together. If the asset is capitalised with current period date, then there is no issue. Depreciation calculation will take place as usual.

  • Error when run Depreciation Posting Run AFAB

    Hi,
    I found error when run Depreciation Posting Run for period 7 2007.
    FYI. I had run Unplanned Depreciation (TCode: ABAA) with document date 31.10.2007 and posting date 31.10.2007, trans. type 640. After that, i want to run Depreciation Posting Run (TCode: AFAB) with fiscal year: 2008, posting period: 7, reason for posting run: repeat. Select on Test Run. Then i found error message as below. 
    Error Message:
    Documents manually posted within dep.doc.number range
    Message no. AA728
    Diagnosis
    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 .
    Procedure
    Contact your Systems Specialist. When changing the number range interval for the document type in depreciation posting, you have to specify a new interval in which no documents exist. Using organizational measures, you can guarantee that there are no documents apart from those created by depreciation posting in this number range.
    Can any one help how to solve this issue?

  • Is it possible to post the depreciation once the depreciation cycle run?

    HI  ALL
         Is it possible to post the depreciation once the depreciation cycle run?
    IF YES   WHY
    IF NO WHY
    PLZ EXPLAIN ME
    Regards
    raju

    yes we can go for repeat run.But it is possible to repeat the posting run within the period last posted.Normally the repeat run is carried out at the end of the fiscal year, if completing postings are necessary because of corrections to manual depreciation or depreciation terms

  • Posting period of "Depreciation Posting Run" problem

    Hi all,
    I was configured my company code with 12 period of nomal fiscal year (defauld fiscal year variant K4). I think Posting period field of Depreciation Posting Run screen (T-code: AFAB) must have 12 posible entries, are 1,2,3,...,11,12. But when I display posible entries of this filed, it only have to posible entries (000-000, 000-365). So that, I can't choose a period to excute real depreciation run.
    How to define posible entries 1,2,3,..,11,12 of posting period field of Depreciation posting run screen?
    Chinhvh

    Hi,
    If I have understood your question correctly
    When u do F4 in field "Posting Period" in AFAB you get the following screen:
    From            To
    000               000
    000               365
    You don't do F4 in that field. Since your Posting Period Variant is K4, just manual input the relevant posting period in the field. i.e if you want to post depreciation for April then just input Period 4 in the field.
    Now what you have to be careful is which depreciation method you are going to select for doing the Posing Run. (i.e the Reason for Posting Run fields)
    You have 4 methods which is described below:
    1. Planned Posting Run. (This should be done if all the depreciation upto the earlier posting period has been done properly under the planned posting run).
    If you have done unplanned run for earlier periods and have never done a planned posting run for the earlier periods for the concerned asset, then you cannot do planned posting run for period 4 directly. You should first do planned posting for period 1, then for period 2, then for period 3, and then finally for period 4. The depreciation will be zero for Posting periods 1,2,3 if your start depn in your asset master is 1st April.
    2. Repeat Run: You can use this to do repeat run. You can do Planned depreciation run only once for a particular asset for a particular period. You can then do a repeat run for doing the depreciation run for the same asset.
    3.I don't think you wll need to do Restart run.
    4. You can do unplanned depreciation run directly for period 4, if you have not done the depreciation run for the particular asset for the earlier period. but this is not recommended. This should be done only in specific circumstances when you have no chance of doing either planned depn run or repeat run.
    Pl assign points.

  • Error Depreciation Posting Run

    Dear All,
    I have a trouble about depreciation posting run, there is an error message when I tried AFAB.
    Right now, I already  maintain the validation (OKC7) in order to change the error [E] message become warning only [W], so atleast the depreciation could be posted (depreciation can be posted, althought there is still error on it).
    The trouble already occured for 2 periods (Apr-May), and I've just found the error---there was incorrect posting for the asset class.
    Should I use F-92 (asset retire), ABAON, or there is any other solution for this?
    Please advise...

  • RAPOST2000 error handling depreciation test run

    I have a problem with the error handling in ECC 6.0 (RAPOST2000). when I run a test run in foreground, the error list is diplayed nicely and i can doble click to see the problem for each asset. But as we have more than 1000 assets we have to run the test run in background, resulting that the error list is placed in the spool without the possibility to drill down to the problem per asset (only the error no displayed in the list). How to proceed to get a smooth way of handling errors without to use two lists ( first the errors per asset, and then the list explaining the error).

    Yes, the "Error Analaysis" indicator was ticked when starting the depreciation test run. So, that does not solve the problem having to match 2 different list/reports to analyze/correct the errors.

  • Depreciation not Run value reaches to 95 %

    Hi,
    KIndly suggest when Asset Depreciation value reached to 95% system will not calculate that material in next depreciation posting run, currently we are using 10% depreciation value on yearly basis.waiting for reply.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Kshitiz Goyal

    This behaviour is only because of residual value 5% specified in depreciation key / single asset master level.
    Check in AS02 for single asset at depreciation area level by double clicking on 01 area.
    or
    Check the depreciation key settings in AFAMA if the cut off key specified in the Scrap value field or
    Base value is specified by the scrap value amount.
    In the above cases, the depreciation stops posting if it reaches 95% acquisition value.
    Please check

  • Question about Depreciation Posting Run

    I Gurus:
    I have a question about Depreciation Posting Run;  I want to block two active assets for not entry in the Depreciation Posting Run and don´t affected it.
    I try to blocked the fixed asset in AS06 transaction but de active asset is affected in Depreciation Posting Run.
    Could you please help me??
    Thanks a lot

    Hi,
    To my limited knowledge, one can deactivate the assets after transfering the value from the to be deactivated asset.
    As per the generally accepted accounting principles, assets with value should have an impact in our financial statment.  In SAP, deactivating assets means, wrongly created assets which will not have any value and will not have impact any of your financial books of accounts.
    I think, you are looking for a functionality, where you do not want to depreciate the assets (ex. Land).  If it is so, you can give the Zero percentage by creating a new dep. key if you are using depreciation key based calculation of depreciation.
    Hope it clears your doubt,
    Regards

  • Asset Accounting - Depreciation Repeat Run

    Hi Seniors,
    Depreciation run upto period 7 is over.  Now, client wants to create few Intangible assets and depreciation needs to be run from period 1.  I created one Intangible asset in Quality Server and tried to do repeat run for that particular asset.  It says the posting will be done in Period 7.  But, client wants the depreciation to be posted every month.  Is there any way for this?  Periods are open. 
    with sincere Regards

    Hi Kumar,
    Repeat run option is only for running the depreciation for the previous month only in this case period 7. The system calculates the amount from the period 1-7 and posts in period 7.
    One option you can try is. You can create the repeat depreciation run for period 7 for this particular asset in background and process the same in foreground, changing the posting date and amount. Make sure your period is open.
    Test this scenerio in your test client.

  • Depreciation repeat run (period 14) - no areas to post to...

    Hi Experts,
    We have problem -  cannot run Repeat run depreciation (posting to period 14 - audit adjustment)
    We did reverse document for fixed asset, therfore we would like to do Repeat run depreciation.
    However while we run, the error showing<i> "there are no areas to post to in company code xxx"</i>
    Kindly advise. Thank you.

    Hi,
    - simulate AFAB for period 15 (if exists) for the specific asset and see if it has any entries
    - try repeat run for period 14 specifying the asset number in the selection screen
    - check for Posted Values tab in AW01N for the asset in question and see if any yellow triangle is seen or any depreciation planned.

  • Depreciation : Repeat run to be done ...which got posted earlier

    Depreciation is already posted thru AFAB for March.  Now there are some more assets, which came later will be capitalised, and has to be posted in the same run / month.
    What is the best way :
    Should we execute "Repeat run" for only those assets ?.
    Whether the depreciation already posted to FI, can be reversed ?. If yes,,how ??
    If the above is possible, then should we execute the full repeat run & post again ??
    thanks
    amit

    You can do a complete Repeat run. It post the difference between the normal and the the repeat run.
    It should then only the new postings. Run it as test run and you see the result

  • Depreciation repeat run -previous period

    We have done planned depreciation run for 10th (currrent) period  without running repeat run for 9th (previous) period.
    Please help us how to carry repeat run for 9th period.
    thanx in advance
    Srihari

    Hi Srihari,
    "N" number of times you can able to Re-run depreciation posting, no doubt about it.
    here you are posted dep for 10th period and again you are capitalised asset for previous period (9th), now we have two options.
    1 - Based on dep key system calculate dep for previous periods and post next period (11th)
    Ex: Asset Value = $ 12000 % use ful life 10 years.
    Dep 10% every month  = $ 100
    here when you execute dep for the period 11th system post $ 300 depreciation value. ( this method called Catch up method)
    2 - Smoothing Method ( Go to T.Code: OAYR and select Smoothing Check Bok)
    now your asset report shows from 9th to 12th period $100 every month.
    this situation you can run again Re-Run Depreciation, system will post dep amount respective months.

  • Depreciation not run for single asset-Why

    Hi Experts,
    Could anybody advise me why I am unable to run depreciation of single asset,(AFAB and repeat run used)
    However.I can ran depreciation of all assets of the company code(all are working fine),
    So Please suggest me how can I run depreciation for a single asset (Any specific configuration?)
    Note:-
    When I am checking AW01N I found depreciation of a asset has been posted for period-15(spl period)
    But for other asset -depreciation  has not been posted for period-15(showing planned only and revaluation amount also showin in plan ,done through AB01)
    So I am trying to post the depreciation for the period -15,
    So that after depreciation  posting revaluation amount also can go in posted amount(revaluation amount showing in plan only as depreciation has not been posted for the period-15)
    Please advise
    Thanks and Regards

    Hi,
    As per standard SAP, depreciation can be run at company code level and not at asset level.
    If you just want to check the nature of posting, you can give a single asset and run in 'Test Run' mode.
    Regards,
    Sridevi
