EQUIPMENT ASSIGNMENT TO ASSET MASTER RECORD

Hi All:
I am trying to assign the Equipment Number in the Asset Master Record but am not able to do so. Is it even possible, has anyone had any success with the configurations and can share them with me?
I know that I can create the Equipment Number automatically when creating the Asset Master but what I need to do is to assign an existing Equipment Number to an existing or new Asset Master & the asset number will be reflected on the Equipment Master.
Thanks and Regards
Hisham

What is the problem now? Aren't you able to assign the Equipment number in the Asset master data?
What is the error message?
Well, just try this and see whether it works for you or not.

Equipment master record updation in Asset master record

Dear Friends,
I have a query with regard to Equipment master record updation in asset master record. Here we have created equipment in Plant maintenance module and we have created asset in AS01 tcode. When we give the asset number to PM module guys, they can easily update the asset number in their equipment master by changing the equipment master record.
But when we enter the same in asset master record in 3rd tab allocations tab, initially it is accepting the equipment details like equipment number, category, object and tech description, but the same is not available after saving.
Please let me know whether I have to do any customization in asset settings inorder to get the equipment number populated in asset master record.
Thanks,
Dwarak.

Hi,
Thanks a lot for your reply.
I did both these customization, but still it is not working. Any other customization to be done? Please let me know.
And also in asset master record in allocations tab, do we need to select sync and workflow checkbox?
Thanks
Dwarak.

Group box in asset master record's tab overlap each other

Hi Gurus,
I was wondering anyone has seen the same issue that I'm experiencing. I'm on EHP6 and have logged the issue with SAP but wondering if you've faced the same problem.
I basically designed a new tab layout with 2 tabs and assigned the following group box to the 1st tab
S0001     General
S0003     Time-Dependent Data
S0002     Posting Information
S0013     Equipment
to the 2nd tab I only assigned
S0009     Origin
S0100     Depreciation Areas
Then I assigned the new tab to the asset class.
Now when I create the asset through AS01, the tab and group boxes appear however the time-dependent group box overlaps with posting information (please see below). Have you experienced the same issue in your environment?
Thank you.

Dear Minab,
This is definitively the problem of overlapping of the layouts.
The asset master data transactions AS01, AS02 and AS03 uses a generic tool to define the screen layout. Unfortunately there are some restrictions on that tool which are based on basis functionality.
The problem is caused by compression and resizing (note 203023)
Since Release Enterprise there are more fields on that screen in Release Enterprise than before.
Hence, the problem is caused by the definition of your asset layout the solution in your case could be to move the screen to an own subscreen or to move this screen to the end of the tab.
Please go the customizing (transaction SPRO) and follow these steps:
   Financial Accounting -> Asset Accounting -> Master Data -> Screen
   Layout -> Specify Tab Layout for Asset Master Record -> Define Tab
   Layout for Asset Master Data
Select in your layout the relevant tab page.
Here you may need to change positions and group boxes around. Unfortunately there's no other solution possible due to technical restrictions.
best regards Bernhard

Error in Asset Master record creation

I have created one asset class 1001 for land and 3001 for Vehicles by myself (i.e. without reference)
I have filled all account determination, screenlayout, etc.
When i create asset master record for LAND, i enter asset class 1001 (for land) & it accepts.
But when i create asset master record for Vehicle, i enter asset class 3001 (for vehicle). But it throws error.
Error shown is:
Chart of depreciation IN00 that was determined is not entered for asset class 3001.
_How to rectify the problem ?_
Help with Tcode or menu path.
Further to rectify,
I am trying to Specify Chart-of-Dep.-Dependent Screen Layout/Acct Assignment (Tcode: ANK1)
But error shown is:
Chart-of-depreciation-dependent assignment to asset class not possible
(Message no. AC012)

I am trying to Specify Chart-of-Dep.-Dependent Screen Layout/Acct Assignment (Tcode: ANK1)
But error shown is:
Chart-of-depreciation-dependent assignment to asset class not possible
(Message no. AC012)
Solution given is:
In order to be able to assign chart-of-depreciation-dependent data to asset class 1001, the following conditions have to be met. You have to have already
1. Defined at least two active charts of depreciation
2. Assigned asset class 1001 to more than one chart of depreciation
However, at the moment this asset class is only assigned to chart of depreciation 1.
I m unable to understand the solution

Error occurs during Asset Master Record Creation.

Hello SAP Gurus,
The error occurs during asset master record creation.
Our fiscal year variant is Z6 (July to June). The asset was acquired in June 15 (previous fiscal year) but was only set up on July 30 (this fiscal year) . When we put the depreciation start date as 15 June the error appeared. While saving the Asset master we are getting below error.
We tried the same with Post Capitalization of Asset (ABNAN) there also we are getting same error.

Hi,
have you generated the period controls properly? If not, the error is raised correctly by the system.
To generate period controls go to:
IMG Asset Accounting -> Depreciation -> Valuation Methods -> Period Control -> Generate Period Controls / or you can use OA84

WBS Field in Asset Master Record

Hi All,
Currently we are working in 4.6 C version.
The requirement of the client is they want the Field WBS to be populated in asset Master Record under the origin Tab or Time Dependent.
The standard functionality is available in ECC6
Could some body help us in knowing how to achieve this in 4.6c, do we the SAP standard Solution or do we need to go for some enhancements.
Regards,
Nitin

Hi
@ Satish - Seems you have copied the reply from one of my earlier posts which is related to a different issue
@ Nitin: Go to Screen layouts (IMG > AA > Master data > Screen layout)
Here, you need to allow WBS Element in your screen layout... Also, if you cant see WBS there, Allow to use WBS element in the IMG Step AA > Integration with GL > Define Additional account assignment objects...
I never worked on 4.6, but I guess WBS must be allowed for usage

Screen Layout Field in the Asset Master Record

What is the use of the screen in the asset master record, ANLA-FELEI?
We have some assets where there are different values between this screen layout and the screen layout defined at the asset class (i.e. through configuration).
It seems the one defined within the asset class takes precedence.

HI
Scree Layout controls the diplay of fields, it may not be necessary for a user to use all the fileds provided by SAP. Hence the options like Required, Optional and Suppress are used to control the screen diplay and the TABs to be displayed based on the need.
Asses within the same class will have same fields since the screen layout are assigned to an Asset class.
Scree layout for the Tab Depreciation Area can also be controlled with the screen layout defied for the Depreciation Area. With this one can have different screen layouts per dep. area.
Hope i'm clear to you.
Thanks,
Vijay

Settlement of AUC Cost to Asset Master Record

Hi,
Can any body tell me where the error has occured when i am settling AUC costs in Project to asset master record via the transaction AIBU.
The exact error message is:-
BALANCE IN TRANSACTION CURRENCY
Message no. F5702
Diagnosis:-
The balance has occured in transaction currency " ZAR"with the following details:-
Exchange rate '00' amount '2000' and currency key 'ZAR'.
The data in transaction currency was transfered from the calling application.
System Response:-
Your data cannot be processed in FI.
Procedure:-
The error is probably in the calling application.
Thanx in advance.
Regards
Santosh

There doesn't seem to be an exchange rate between the two currencies that the system is using. Apparently, you are using at least two currencies- perhaps a currency in depr area 01 and then a different currency is assigned to the controlling area currency.
Check to see if the exchange rate is maintained in your exchange rate table - in the IMG go to SAP Netweaver > General Settings > Currencies > Enter Exchange Rates. See if there is a rate setup between ZAR and the other currency that is being used.
I believe it uses a Month End rate, and it must be set up for the date the settlement is taking place.
Hope this helps!

Business area default in asset master record

Dear all
Here is one ticket pertains to asset
when i create asset master record business area will be defaulted
the problem is when i upload asset master record through LSMW
by different business area the system throws a error message BUSINESS AREA EXISTS WHICH CANT BE REPLACED THROUGH LSMW
This is happening for all the asset classes
so i want to remove that default business area from where should i remove that which t-code or menu path
regards ravindra kumar

Dear ravinagh
removing of business area in asset master record is always possible but
see when u r uploading bulk asset master records through LSMW we cant replace the business area as it is already defaulted in asset master record
means some where we have assigned the default values to the asset classes or some other master record
so we have to find out the source of the defualt business area for asset master record
when we remove this from the asset classes then the business area will not be defaulted so that we can upload assets from LSMW with different business area
so please try to find out the source....................

Digital pictures of assets in asset master record

Hi,
I would like to know if it's possible to include digital pictures of assets in asset master record in ERP.
We are using ECC 5.0.
Thanks!
Regards,
Diego

I can think of 2 ways , 1st is using the Services of Object where u can attach a link or assign a picture linked to the Asset how to do it is usually u go to AS02 then specify the asset to edit then click at System ->services for object-> create external document(URL) and assign the path and name to be attached.
2nd way is using GUIxt which is an external party tools integrated to SAP, which u can design the layout of your maintenance screen and assign a sub routine to link to a picture file by way of asset no.

WBS assignement in Asset Master & postings Impact on business processes??

Hi all,
We have the option in asset master record to give the WBS element, so whenever we procure an asset we will procure it to a project so we planned to give wbs in asset master record.
we even calculate dep for the project. and we will transfer asset from one project to another.
by considering above all if we assign wbs in asset and procure it to project and calculate dep. does it leads to any other implications. we tested the above cycle its working fine, but we are unable to vizualise other impacts.
so somebody please guide us to goahead with this opttion.
thanks & regards,
shashi kanth.

Hi,
Typical use of this is to do a statistical posting to the WBS and a "real" posting to the asset. It is a nice feature, as you can tell and report on your origins of assets by WBS.
Good luck!

Warning massage while saving the asset master record

Hi all,
I have a problem while saving the asset master record.My client manages the group asset in the depreciation area 15 for tax reporting.What I have done in the configuration that, I have created a separate asset class for group asset and marked this asset for entirely consisting of group assets.Then I have createdall the grpup assets in this marked class.For example, supppose I have created one group asset class 50000 and I have created all the group assets in this class.Then I assign the gr.asset no. in the master record of the normal assets and while saving the master record I am getting the warning massage as the account determination is different than the asset.It may't be possible to reconcile them from the FI-AA.But if I am creating the group assets in the class of the normal assets such type of error massage doesn't appear.Also while retiring the normal assets the asseet is not being deactivated automatically and instead a warning massage is coming the asset is still having value in the depreciation area 15 and can't be deactivated.Can any body suggest where I have gone wrong in the configuration?

Update delays sometimes mean that there is a queue waiting at the UPD task. Go to SM51 and check to make sure that there are no other tasks waiting to be processed. Check with you Basis group - they might be able to run some diagnostics on the update task.

How to change cost center in Asset Master record ?

Hi SAP Gurus,
My client is asking me to change cost centers in Asset Master records using LSMW. Currently, the field cost center is in display mode. In order to change the cost center, the field cost center must be in change mode while recording in LSMW. I have changed screen layout rule for Asset Master data. I have selected radio button "Optional" for cost center in screen layout for Asset Master data. But still cost center field is in display mode in Asset Master record. It must be changeable.
Please suggest me how I can resolve the issue.
Regards,
K.S.K

Hi Saravana,
We can change the cost center for AuC Investment measure at WBS element level. For that purpose we need to go to AuC Investment measure Asset master record and check WBS element under Origin Tab. Double click on WBSE and then check the cost center under Assignment tab. And also check the cost center in Asset master record for the same. Now you can go to T.Code CJ12 (Change WBS Element) and change the cost center for the same. Once you make changes system automatically change the cost center in asset master record for the same.
Note: - Now you have to identify all the AuC Investment measure Assets and the WBS Element for the same. Then change the cost center in WBS Element record. And the corresponding changes will be done in relevant Asset master record automatically.
But before making the change please check with the PS/PM consultant regarding changes in WBS element. Means where it will effect?
With Regards
