Fiscal Year Calculation

I need to set the start of year to a different date than 01/01/.
Lets say I want to set the start date of the year to 23-02.
I want the java calendar classes to return the fields e.g week days, month etc according to this new date.for example Calendar.get(Calendar.MONTH)) for above date should return 0 as it is the first month of my fiscal year.
Is there any way to set this?
Thanks
Ahmad

Is there any way to set this?Sure, I don't see why not. Of course you would have to write some code, there isn't a Calendar method that you missed while you were reading the documentation that does that automatically.

There are some BADI and user exit which determines my base value for depreciation calculation. Should we have to use that or any standard solutions are available for this.
Please let me know.

Mid Month Calculation for Year dependent fiscal year

Hi All,
We are in middle of AA implementation .How can we configure mid month in year dependent fiscal year .System doesn't allow to put mid month date for year dependent fiscal year.
If we copy co.code from best practice co.code BP01 system updates date this table in back round.
But we are not copying from BP01.
Any one has configure this for year dependent please input.
Thanks,

Hi,
this function is not possible, you have to use a fiscal year variant with 24 real periods instead.
Check the IMG documentation concerning "Use of Half Months in the Company Code":
- When you specify the use of half periods in the definition of an asset company code, half periods are automatically specified in all other company codes that use this fiscal year version.
- You cannot use half periods with non-calendar fiscal months.
- You cannot take back the use of half periods once the specification has been made. It is noted internally by the system in the asset master records.

Import fixed assets in middle of fiscal year 2013

Hi,
I like to import several fixed assets in middle of fiscal year 2013. The attached file works fine but when I then look at the depreciation months, I see the depreciation for the complete year of 2013. But when I set the start depreciation date in the import file set to 2013-11-01 the import is not working anymore because of wrong calculation of lifetime.
How can I import this fixed asset with start depr date set to 2013-11-01 and only the last 2 months (Nov and Dec) need an depreciation for 2013??
And not also the previous months !!!
Thanks again.
Mark

Hi Mark,
Import FA with depreciation start date as 2014/01/01 and run the depreciation for the said two months by doing an journal entry. Depreciation is calculated for a whole year.

Adjust Asset Fiscal year more than 2 years backward

Hello SAP Guru,
We have a problem in Asset accounting today for US company codes. We would like to implement tax bonuses for our old assets in SAP. Currently the tax bonuses are calculated offline and it cause so many effort on the tax department. We would like to adjust depreciation calculation of our assets to include bonus depreciation. We already set-up depreciation key needed. The problem now is when we tried to change the depreciation keys of our old assets, special depreciation did not take effect. Then I found out that special depreciation only reflect for open fiscal year. How can we do this if we want to post special depreciation (Asset Level only) more than 2 years backward.
Please help,
Thanks!
Jhero

Hi Jhero,
As a rule it is only allowed to have max 2 fiscal years open (included the current fiscal year).
The closed fiscal year in all depreciation areas have to be the same.
Conclusion: it is not possible to open the fiscal year 2006 with legal means.
Of course you can change the closed fiscal year also directly in table T093B but this should be done from a experienced consulter.

Return current period based off of current fiscal year and date

Good Afternoon,
Is there a way in the webi that I can create a dimension that always reflects the current Fiscal Month based of Fiscal year and date? I have a report that I am trying to show sales for a customer based off the current fiscal month. I would like this report when refreshed to be based off this fiscal month dimension instead of showing each fiscal month or changing it manually. What is the best way to do this?
I have attached an image that shows current numbers by period (month) and then the YTD Totals. I would like to have my 'Period' column always reflect the current period and the Total column to reflect that months totals based off the period column. So for this period (3), instead of seeing 3 lines for each month I would just see the '3' and the total as $541,310.46, monthly as 412,502.09 and my YTD as 1,080,091.06.
Any help is always appreciated!
Thank you,
Tiffany

Hi,
Create a variable
FlagVar=If([Period]=Max([Period]) In Report;"Show";"Hide")
And apply block filter of FlagVar=Show
Are these coming TotalSales MonthlyGoal YTDSales directly from universe? If they are calculated at report level then you might want to use NoFilter. like =NoFilter([YTDSales])

Formula to calculate two fiscal year/period difference for non null quantit

We'd like to have a query result like the following:
Person -- Jan_2007 -- Feb_2007 -- Mar_2007 -- No. of Months
Tom --- 21 --- 54 --- 10 --- 2
John --- 0 --- 3 --- 15 --- 1
In the above query, the row is sales persons, the 1st three columns list the sales quantity by each sales person restricted by fiscal year/period and we would like to create 4th column "No. of Months" to calculate (will use formula) the month span (difference) for each sales person from his last sale activity (the last month he performed sales) and the 1st sale activity (the first month he performed sales) as listed in the above query result, e.g., Tom performed his first sales (sales quantity: 21) in the month of January of year 2007, and he performed his last sales (sales quantity of 10) in the month of March, 2007, then the "No. of Months" column value for Tom is 2. The calculation formula will be performed based on the last quantity value (> 0) to trace it's corresponding column fiscal year/period value (max of the fiscal year/period value with quantity value >0) and on the 1st quantity value (>0) to trace it's corresonding column fiscal year/period value (min of the fiscal year/period value with quantity value >0) and then do the subtraction between the max of the fiscal year/period value and the min one.
Would be appreciated if BEx experts here give the detailed steps on how to build up this formula to calculate the number of month difference and we will give you reward points!

hi Danny,
I only gave an example of 3 columns, but actually, yes, the report can have more than 12 months, e.g. from Jan_1999, Feb_1999, ..., Mar_2011, Apr_2011.
In our simple example of 3 columns for the three consecutive months, if John had (3)(0)(15), then the No. of Months is 2, or the last month value he performed sales and 1st month he performed sales.
You said macro in Excel sheet? Not sure if macro will work on web since we will eventually run the reports on web browser, therefore we still prefer using Formula.
Any idea/solution?
Thanks!

Asset depreciation in a closed fiscal year

Hello,
After closing fiscal year 2010 we noticed that asset "A" start depreciation date was incorrectly set to December, 15.
Now we have corrected this date to December, 1. SAP have re-calculated the depreciation so we have aditional USD 600 planned for December. (we have UDS 600 posted + USD 600 planned).
Is there anyway to force those USD 600 to be posted on the new fiscal year 2011?
Is there any other way to arrange our depreciation issue withhoul opening 2010 for posting?
Thank you in beforehand.
Juanma.

Hi
I believe, OAYF is relevant for recalculating asset accum dep during Legacy data transfer.... I dont know if it would help in this case
If you have not done the FY 2010 closing, system wont allow you to close till the time all planned depreciations are posted...
Refer note 619969... You can run AFAB for Period 13 and post the dep in Period 12.... After that, do a balance carry forward
However, if you dont wanna post in 2010 any more, then dont change the Dep Start date.... Let it remain as Dec 15.... You can post Unplanned dep for Jan 2011 using ABAA - Followed by AFAB (Unplanned option)

Planned dep in closed fiscal year

Hi
We have done a change(reduced the useful life) in the useful life of the asset in the Fiscal year 2009 in the month of June,which impacted the previous year depreciation amount.The planned dep value got increased in december 2008 .In the posted value tab in asset explorer for year 2008 it displays the planned dep in dec 2008 which is not yet posted.We donot need this depreciation to be posted.We need to delete the planned dep.Financial year and Asset year till 2009 are closed.
Please advice how to get the planned dep line removed from year 2008 which effects the net book value.

Hi,
Are you absolutely sure the changes were made when the fiscal year was closed. Maybe you need to also check if the depreciation area(s) affected was/were open at the time (OAAR). It should not be possible: if the fiscal year and all depreciation areas are closed, changing the useful life should not affect these closed years/depr.areas.
Changes to depreciation conditions (e.g.useful life, dep.key) only affect the planned depreciation in open fiscal years. There is no specific transaction.
The adjustment for the depreciation of the closed fiscal year will be reflected in an adjustment posting in the next period due for depreciation posting in a catch-up posting (or smoothing if indicated). For the open fiscal years the newly calculated depreciation will be distributed equally over the remaining useful life.
Therefore it sound to me very peculiar that planned depreciation should have been created in your closed fiscal year due to a change of useful life. Please review your change documents to ensure depreciation areas and fiscal years were closed at time of change u2013 and have not been reopened either via OAAR or OAAQ.
To answer your last question regarding if change of useful life will affect deprecation in 2010: provided that it is the only open fiscal year and is in fact the current fiscal year, then yes, it will affect the planned depreciation in 2010 and in the remaining useful life.
Kind regards,
Brigitte

Creation of shortend Fiscal year for the Merger of two Companies.

Company 'A'is getting Merged with the Company 'B' on 15th February 2010. Company 'A' is suppose to submit all the financial details to the Company 'B' on 15th February 2010, furthermore the users with the Company 'A' should not be allowed to post any transactions after 15th February 2010.(Max they should be given 10 days grace period for closing the financial year)
The current fiscal year for the Company 'A' is from April to March. However, as per the above mentioned scenario it is required to have fiscal year from April to February.i.e. a shortened fiscal year.
Please note that Company 'A' is using the version 4.7.
Steps we have already proceeded with
1. we created a Shortened fiscal year "Z1"from April to Feb 2010 (Monthly basis) wherein we have taken only 15 days for the month of Feb 2010.
2. we have created an another Shortened fiscal year(weekly basis) wherein we have taken six weeks as posting period.
3.We assigned the Fiscal year Variant to the company code.
4.After assigning when we want to check the details of the assets in the Asset explorer AW01N.the system is reflecting an error "
SYST: Error when calculating first day in fiscal period > F1
Message no. AA654
Please provide us with the solution for the above mentioned scenario.
Thanks and Regards,

Hey,
I am facing a similar scenario at my client place, thought if i could get insights on how you resolved the issue identified...
We are yet to configure the shortened fiscal year settings.
Thanks

FI-AA: no depreciation in depr. 15 (income tax) in fiscal year when retired

Hello all!
I have a question concerning settings for a FI-AA depreciation key concerning depr. area 15 (income tax; Slovakia):
Calculation of depreciation in depr. area 15 (income tax) must be ZERO in case of retirement during fiscal year (no pro rata until retirement date).
Thanks for an answer.
Bernd

Hi Bernd,
Use a depreciation key with period control 06 At the start of the year for retirements
When you have made depreciations run in old months in the year it will turned back with the retirement posting

Asset Fiscal Year End Closing - Depreciation not posted completely in 2010

Hi Experts,
I have an issue concerning AA 2010 year end closing, since there is one asset which depreciation in 2010 was not posted completely, meaning that we cannot close 2010 fiscal year.
This happened because of the following situation:
Vendor Incoice was posted in 30.12.2010, with a document date 31.03.2010 (meaning that for this asset the depreciation calculation start date was 01.03.2010). Then, in 30.03.2011 someone post the reversal document, with posting date 31.12.2010.
So for this asset I donu2019t have any depreciation posted in 2011 and no values in depreciation book, for the asset, meaning that even if I change the depreciation calculation start date for 01.01.2011, it will still be necessary to run depreciation in Dec.2010.
However I cannot run depreciation for this asset for 2010 because it will have impact in 2010 balance sheet, which cannot happen.
Do you have any ideas to solve this problem?
Thanks!
Best regards,
Andreia Nascimento

Hi,
As i have already suggested you for the [SIMILAR THREAD|Re: Asset Fiscal Year Closing not possible], which you have only posted in FI forum, there is no other alternative than running the repeat dep run for FY 2010 for period 12.
Please do not cross post your questions.

please tell me the logic?

You can create them
Non calender year
Non Year dependent
Number of Periods 16, Special Periods XX (based on your requirement)
Use -1 or +1 year shift based on your requirement.
However, your requirement is wrong. December month is overlapping in both the years. Please recheck.

Since you are on BPC 5.1, I don't believe you can take advantage of multiple hierarchies within the Time Dimension. So, I would create a report rendering the information you need, with the columns being fixed using properties and EVTIM. The values for the quarterly and yearly levels would be sums instead of retrievals from the database.
