FI-AA: Assignment asset class to chart of depreciation

Hi all,
does anybody know whether it's possible to assign asset classes to a specific chart of depreciation (or let's say to delete this assignment)?
The background of the question is the following: Some asset classes should not be used in some company codes. All these company codes use the same chart of depreciation, so I thought there must be a possibility to delete the assignment of this asset class to this chart of depreciation. Unfortunately, I haven't found this setting in the IMG.
The SAP Message no. AC 012 tells for example, that there is an assignment "asset class to chart of depreciation". This is the message:
In order to be able to assign chart-of-depreciation-dependent data to asset class 120204, 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 120204 to more than one chart of depreciation
However, at the moment this asset class is only assigned to chart of depreciation 1.
As we have definitely more than one active chart of depreciation, there must be this assignment, but how can I change it?
I've seen that I can set a block for an asset class in a chart of depreciation in transaction OAYZ (ANKB-XSPEB / Indicator: Block asset class chart of depreciation-specifc). But I think that I will still see the asset class in the match code search (F4) when I set this indicator.
Does anybody know how I can delete an asset class form a chart of depreciation so that it won't be found via match code search? I've checked almost the whole FI-AA tree but haven't found a solution...
Thank you very much!
Regards,
Peter

Hi Eric,
thanks for your answer. As far as I can see, the option "chart of depreciation only" in transaction AM05 has the same effect than the parameter "chart of depreciation" in transaction OAYZ.
As I receive a transport request via transaction AM05, it seems that this changes the same customizing table.
Fortunately, all company codes in this chart of depreciation need the same settings, so a validation rule seems not to be necessary.
It's just strange that there is no possibility to edit the assignment asset class to chart of depreciation in customizing (I think the assignment to all asset classes in the system will be created automatically when I copy the chart of depreciation). I think the only possibility would be to edit the respective tables manually (what I definitely won't do).
Another strange thing I see in the system: There are 2 asset classes 120203 and 120204, which are both set up equally. When I try to block these in AM05, I'll receive the error message AA 111 for asset class 120204, while the asset class 120203 can be blocked without problems. When I use matchcode search F4, I can see 120203 while 120204 is not found.
Message AA111 is the following:
Chart of dep. 100 does not exist in class 120204 (Create chart of deprec.)
Diagnosis
Chart of depreciation 100 does not exist in class 120204.
Procedure
Create the chart of depreciation 100 for asset class 120204 using the transaction 'Create asset class' and the function 'Create chart of dep.'.
There is the assignment asset class to chart of depreciation.
When I check asset class 120204 in OAYZ (Determine Depreciation Areas in the Asset Class) I'll get the following message (I don't get this message when I check 120203):
Deprec. area 50 was changed and deactivated. Please check.
Message no. AC 631
Diagnosis
Depreciation area 50 was added to asset class 120204 because this depreciation area was newly created in Customizing.
System Response
The system adds the new depreciation area to the asset class, but its status is 'deactivated.'
Procedure
Check if this action by the system is correct. Maintain the depreciation areas in the asset class, and remove the 'deactivated' indicator there, if you choose.
For sure, depreciation area 50 was not newly created in customizing (as stated in the error message), as this depreciation are is in production for years! There must be another reason for this.
However, this says to me that the assignment asset class to chart of depreciation is created by SAP automatically and this can't be influenced.
Therefore I'll just block the asset class in the chart of depreciation with the disadvantage, that I'll see this asset class when I use the matchcode search F4 (e.g. in AS01). This seems to be the only solution.
Thanks again for your help (you got some points for that ;-).

Peter

You can lock the asset classed as per COD from t.code AM05 or one more you can lock the asset classes from OAOA.
Go to OAOA select your said asset class see Lock Status area there you can see option Asset class is blocked Tick it.

Utarat.P

Hi Utarat,
whenever you create an asset the system checks first the table ANKP. If you have chart-of-depreciation-dependend account determination, than an entry in the table ANKP is made. If you than make a copy from such a asset class in the asset class there is another account determination than in the table ANKP and the system takes the account determination from the table ANKP and not from the asset class.
Normally you can't define chart-of-depreciation-dependent assignments (with transaction ANK1) if there is only one chart of depreciation. As a result you'll get error AC012. So, I think there was a second chart which was deleted.
If you'd like to change (or delete) this assignments you can use
the following workaround:
    SM34 -> View ANKA_ALL -> Maintain
       - select asset class ART (for example)
       - then click in the left column on "Chart of dep - dep data"

Screen layout for asset class

HI,
My problem is that I am assigning one asset class to new screen layout in the asset class master data.
But the system is taking the fields from the layout which is chart of depreciation dependent data (tcode ANK1)
Here when i try to change that data for this asset class the system throws the message "Chart-of-depreciation-dependent assignment to asset class XXXX not possible"
Procedure
     In order to be able to assign chart-of-depreciation-dependent data to
     asset class 4100, 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 4100 to more than one chart of depreciation
     However, at the moment this asset class is only assigned to chart of
     depreciation 1.
Any help would really be appreciated.
Regards
Meenakshi

This is whta you have done:
Generally, the control specifications (the screen layout and the account determination) for the asset class applies throughout the client, that is, for all charts of depreciation. It is therefore sufficient to make control specifications once per asset class.
You only need to carry out this step, if, contrary to the usual case, you want these control specifications to be country-specific (that is, different depending on the chart of depreciation). The system then uses the entries you make here depending on the chart of depreciation in the given company code. The system then ignores the control specifications in the asset class that are independent of the chart of depreciation.
We shall try to check how to delete this settings.

Asset class doesn't appear in T.code AS01

Hi
I created Asset Class, and Screen layout with that asset class. But when I creat asset in T.code AS01, I click field "Asset Class", but that asset class doesn't appear. It notice following:
"Asset class 213200 cannot be used in company code HDQC
Message no. AA130
Diagnosis
When you create an asset, the system determines the chart of depreciation from the company code definition. In order for a chart of depreciation to be available for an asset class during asset maintenance, the chart of depreciation has to be entered for that asset class (Determine class valuation). Chart of depreciation HDQC that was determined is not entered for asset class 213200.
System Response
You cannot create any assets in your company code for this class.
Procedure
You can do one of the following:
Use another asset class, for which chart of depreciation HDQC is defined.
Maintain the asset class valuations for asset class 213200 in chart of depreciation HDQC. Chart of depreciation HDQC has to be specified in order for you to be able to maintain the valuation parameters of asset class 213200 for chart of depreciation HDQC"
Please explain me as detailed as possible
Thanks

Asset class Land separate & building separate ( for 1 asset)

Warm Greetings to All Group Members
Require Best practice solution
Current Scenario Our company Purchased the building in 2009 and In SAP system Building was created, posted to asset class Building with the depreciation for 40 Years
Our Audit department is requesting our Finance department to show two assets separate as
1) land with useful life 40 Years with value
2) Building with useful life Zero with value
Note
current The posted asset in sap Has value ( Building + land)
2.Our company is state transport company
Please suggest me/as what is the best practice
Should i create a new asset class separate as land and move the value of building to land
Your Early Reply will be appreciated
regards
shamul heq

Hi Shamul heq
If you want to manage land and building separately, you need to create new asset class for land beside asset class for building. Then create new land asset master data under land asset class and transfer value of the land from original building asset to newly created land asset.
Alternatively, case of no necessary to manage land seperately, you can simply transfer the value of land to sub-number asset of the building asset. In this way, you can manage the building and the land as one asset in SAP system.

Asset transfer between different Chart of Depreciation .

Hello SAP gurus,
Please let me know in brief the config steps involved to do transfer of the assets from US to MX.
Thanks in Advance for all your help.

I believe if we have to transfer assets from different Chart of Depreciation(which involves transfer of Assets from USA to Mexico) we need to define cross system depreciation areas.This part I am not familiar Please let me know how to do this.
Thanks in Advance for your help.

Account Assignment to asset class is it Chart of account dependent or Depr.

Hi All,
We are making a rollout for one of our client. the role out is for indian Company the parent comapny is German based.
I have created the same asset class for Indian Company code as same as Germany Company code and assigned GL accounts for those classes. Some of GL accounts are different because of which the problem has areised. while making a posting in the asset accounts in German company Code its giving the error saying that GL accounts is not correct.
What will be the best way to deal with this Issue.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Raj

Hi,
If you have two company codes in two diff countries, and best practises method would be to create 2 chart of depreciations, one for each CC.
Because the income tax regulations for each countrhy may vary. So that copy the german COD to a new COD for indina company code.
So that this new COD can be used for any other company codes in india, if there are any.
Make the account assignments accordingly at AO90, since account allocations would store at each chart of depreciation and chart of account level only.
Thanks,
Srinu

Wrong assignment of Balance sheet accounts for Asset Classes...

dear all,
there is wrongly assignment of acquisition balance sheet account in asset class in t code is AO85 that is, Acquisition:Acquis. and production costs an Accumulated Depreciation Balance sheet account have been assigned. Also in t code AO93 for ordinary depreciation same correct accumulated depreciation Balance sheet account have been assigned.
Now i can say that Acquisition balance sheet account and accumulated depreciation balance sheet account are assigned with same GL (i.e. accumulated depreciation account).
The transactions data have been posted for the asset class with different tcodes i.e.
ABAVN Enter asset transaction: Asset Retirement
OASV Enter Transfer Posting
AIBU AUC Settlement
ABUM Enter asset transaction: Transfer in company code
AB08 Documents from asset
I wanted to post transaction data with correct acquisition account. What should i do to correct posted transactions..
Waiting for positive response.
regards
saqib usman

The best way is to create a new asset class and to transfer the existing assets.
An other option is to change the G/l account in the development system and transport to production. In development it is only possible to this when there are no posting in this asset class. When there are posting you have the option to reset in development asset accounting. Then you can change the G/L account. Have a look to SAP-notes with your error there is a note for.
When the changes are in production you can make a manual correction with the transaction ABF1 (SAP note 69225).
With this option you have the problem that the original postings are no longer in line with the asset account assignment. When you want to do a currency conversion in the future you have to make correction posting again in the old fiscal year

Unable to assign Chart of Depreciation to Company Code

Dear Experts,
I am trying to assign newly created chart of depreciation to my company code but system is not allowing me giving the following error message:
"You cannot process company code ****, it contains assets".
When I go for F1, then further it says:
Message no. AC507
Diagnosis
You want to delete company code **** or assign company code **** to a different chart of depreciation.
However, at least one asset exists in company code ****.
System Response
The action cannot be carried out.
Procedure
Check the company code entry. You may have to reset the assets in this company code, if it is not in production operation.
Please note that I had previously created few assets and asset classes but asset classes have been deleted due to some reason.
I have now recreated asset classes but can't proceed to assign COD to company code because of above issue.
If I must delete existing assets within my company code then how to do it with minimum required steps.
Looking for resolve.
Regards

Dear all who responded,
Thanks for your effort, advise & valuable time.
Issue has been solved finally.
Key point was to delete all assets one by one using AS06 and then try to assign to COD to company code.
Within AS06 when you enter asset code & company code and then click "Delete Asset" button on top, system gives error message in tray. Here when I re-clicked "Delete Asset" button (ignoring error message) it worked and next screen appeared.
Then it was a usual activity to choose "Delete asset physically" button and save the transaction.
After deleting all assets one by one I was able to execute the primary purpose which was: "to assign the COD to my Company Code".

Not able to created Number Ranges for Asset Classes in AS08

Dear Friends,
I am not able create Number Ranges for Asset Classes in AS08.
It is giving me an error message as company code does not exist.
When I Check Consistency under path SPRO -> Financial Accounting -> Asset Accounting -> Preparing for Production Startup -> Check Consistency -> Overview Report: Company Codes. I am getting the following
RSOL Reliance Sealink One PLtd

If you see the above first two line you will find the difference is that Company code RSOL in the first line and NKTR company code in the second line.
Actually CoCode no. alloc. has been wrongly copied as NKTR while copying CoCode it should be RSOL and not NKTR.
I think because of this wrong allocation it is giving me an error in AS08. Also it is not showing me CoCode in drop down list in AS08.
Please help me to resolve the problem.
Thanks
