Intracompany asset transfer of depreciation only

We have some assets that were loaded with our legacy load. They have no APC value, only Accumulated Depreciation.
Is it possible to partially transfer these assets to other assets Accumulated Depreciation that have APC without affecting the APC of receiving asset.
Also, if I wanted to transfer the one asset to many assets, does anyone have a suggestion.
Thanks

Thanks Raj. You are right, ABMA will work. I was looking for something to allow me to transfer a large accumulated depreciation asset to the accumulated depreciation of many smaller assets. I am talking about 1000's of assets so ABMA would be very time consuming.
I am thinking that my best alternative may be ABAP.

TPID not Derive from Intracompany Asset Transfer

Hi,
I'm facing a problem with Intracompany asset transfer ~ Trading Partner is not auto derive from the asset transfer posting.
Currently I'm using a customize transfer variant (copy from transfer variant 4). The only difference is that the customize one do not copy the original master data details (cost ctr, plant, etc) to a new asset.
Is there any other way that I can use to make the TPID automatically derive from this transaction?
TQ.

Hi,
check the transfer variant concerning the Transfer of Fields for new Assets in Target Company Codes. IMG Asset Accounting -> Transactions -> Intercompany Asset Transfers -> Automatic Intercompany Asset Transfers -> Define Transfer Variants. On the popup choose "Specify Transfer of Fields (for New Asset in Target CoCd)" ... here you can set up which fields are taken over, when you create new assets within the transfer posting.

AW01N - Asset Not Fully Depreciated, Only till 2014

Dear Gurus,
There was an asset created in 2010 with the useful life of 10 years. I.e the asset should fully depreciated in 2020. When I look at AW01N, Comparison tab, it shows the planned depreciatation of 4 years only. the asset only depreciates upto 2014 (it does not fully depreciate).
I looked into the FYV which is as well defined beyond 2014. Please let me know if there is any configuration missing.
Thanks

Hi Priya
It makes my belief stronger that the World is going to end soon.. SAP has also realized it... :).
Jokes apart, does your Multi Level Method (AFAMA / AFAMS)has "rem life" indicator ticked.... If yes, then the present behaviour is not justified unless and until
a. you have posted any Unplanned dep and hence, the total dep till 2014 equals the APC Value of the asset, or
b. you have specified any change over method in your Dep Key or
c. you have specified any Cut off value Key in your dep key / Scrap Value in the Asset Master
Does, any of these reasons hold good?

Asset transfer - Acc depreciation transferred i.s.o NBV only

Hi,
User passed GL entries to the manual Asset cost account and Manual Accumulated depreciation accounts. (Debit Accumulated depr and cr cost) What entries can be processed to bring the assets in line with FI amounts? I was thinking of ABSO, but I'm not sure which Transaction Type to use. Can anyone assist?

Hi Paul,
Thank you for your response, I managed to get a transaction ABZ0N TType 160. In order for me to use this transaction, I had to change the configuration that it allows all values to be posted. The only problem is that it decreases the NBV of my asset and that is not what I was looking for. Do you know of any other transactions one can use that you don't have to enter an offsetting account as this seems to be the problem. The entries must be as follow: Cr Cost, Dt Acc depreciation, Cr depreciation - NBV must not change as well as the depreciation amount must not change.

S_ALR_87012054-Intracompany Asset Transfer

I am trying to run the repor S_ALR_87012054 and the system shows me a message AB064 which says 'No data was selected'. I have many intracompany transfer for the period.
The problem is with the transfer of current year, because if I make the ones with ts types of the previous year they will be showed by the report.
Any idea??
thanks,
Cecilia

Hi,
transfer of current year acquisition is always treated as acquisition. Start the acquisition report, there you will find the transactions.
Same with the Asset History Sheet (sheet version 0001) ... only transfer of prior year APC is listed under transfers.

Hi,
check your period control for transfers. If it is pro rata, then the system will keep apparently 2 periods of depreciaiton on the sending asset.

Asset Transfer ABUMN - Depreciation Start Date

We have a problem with when Depreciation begins for an Asset as below:
The Business has transferred Asset A to Asset B via TCode ABUMN.
Asset A deactivated = 17.08.2011
Asset B Asset Value Date = 17.08.2011
Asset B Depn Calculation Start Date = 01.09.2011
When reviewing Depn for Asset B in TCode AW10 u2013 Ordinary Depn will not be posted until the new Financial Year 04.2012.
How is it possible to have Depn post from 01.09.2011 as defined in Depn Calculation Start Date?
Thanks in advanceu2026u2026u2026

In the problem scenario, for Asset A, there hashas been an Asset impairment in P3 FY2011 and this reversed in P5 FY2012. I have a feeling this may be the root of the problem, but as yet I haven't been able to confirm........

Intracompany asset transfer

Dear Experts,
I have triedto transfer asset within company code, e.g: from asset A to asset B (new asset number). My question is after asset transferred, is the old asset will automatically deactivated or not? If yes, from which tcode I could check this issue?
Thank you in advance

Hi,
When you fill in values in the tab partial transfere then the asset is not retired! (even 100%)
You cab do a retitement again with the transaction ABAVN - Asset Retirement by Scrapping. When there are no values on the asset it will place the retirement bit and create no postings.

Extending existing assets to another depreciation area

hi
We have some assets that have been created in depreciation area 01 already and have been in existence since last five years.
Now the requirement is to show these values also in another depreciation area 22 wef 1st Jan 2011.
For example here is a sample list
Asset     Class     Description                                   Model                                              Cost center                                              Cap.date                                              Aquis value

What is the best way to get this done?
Please advise.

Hi K. Gunasekar
It is not possible to tranfer assets from one depreciation area to another. Please ask and understand the requirement from the client for such a thing.
It is intracompany asset transfer that we use usually in such cases. But inter-business area transfers are not possible.
Still, you can read more on transfers here > http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/4f/71e876448011d189f00000e81ddfac/frameset.htm

Asset Transfer with Asset depreciation Strat date

Dear All,
I have a scenario where the asset depreciation needsto be calculated based on the asset transfer date,
For example if the asset accquired on 01.03.2011 and it is puts into used on 16.04.2011, tehn depreciation should be calculated from 16.04.2011.
To achive the smae while creating the asset master i have created depreciation start date in future date. When ever I wil ldo the asset trasnfer throguh ZProgram it will update the depreciaiton started with asset transfer date.
My problem is that if the same Asset get transfered from one location to other location that should be depreciated with the specified cost center from asset transfer date.
When Ever I do further transfer the system is considering the depreciation from transfer date only its ignoring the previous date which are not posted depreciation.
Please let me know is it the depreciation calculation will have with multiple transfer dates.
Regards,
Rama Mohan

Dear Mohan,
Generally the following points are relevant.
1. Specify Transfer of Fields
CU: FI-AA:
-> Transactions
-> Intercompany Asset Transfers
   -> Automatic Intercompany Asset Transfers
    -> Define Transfer Variants
     -> Specify Transfer of Fields (for New Asset in Target CoCd)
      -> 03#Ord.dep.start date
If you mark "03#Ord.dep.start date ", the system is calculating
depreciation from the year of capitalization.
2. Transaction type: Indicator: Transfer adopting dep. start date
Indicator: Transfer adopting dep. start date
Set this indicator, if you want to adopt the historical depreciation
start date and capitalization date from the retiring asset when you
perform intercompany asset transfers or intracompany transfers.
3. Also, could you please verify these setting in you system according
to note 327088
4. Period control of the depreciation key.
regards Bernhard

Intracompany Partial Asset Transfer

Hi,
I would like to perform a partial asset transfer within the same company code but do not wish to transfer the accumulated depreciation to the new asset - i.e. I would like to transfer a % of the acquisition cost to the receiving asset but leave the accumulated depreciation relating to that % on the sending asset. The standard transfer variant for intracompany asset transfers is "4" and this includes the accumulated depreciation in the transfer posting. I guess I need to define a new transfer variant, but I have not been able to successfully create a new one that will give me the result I would like. Does anyone have any suggestions here? Any thoughts would be greatly appreicated.
Cheers,
Matt

Hi,
Yes, I do agree with Blaz's comments.
You can acheive with OAY1 transaction for transferring only APC values.
in addition to that, according to your client's requirement...are they follow this procedure only for any transfers within one company code? (means, this current requirement is for only one or few specific assets or for all?)
If this should be for all, then go to OAY1 and select check boxes for all of your dep areas.
If not, then create a new transfer varient with reference to the standard varient 4. (lets say 4A).
Check your new transfer varient for, which transaction types were assigned to it for retirement transfers and acquisition transfers? (probabaly those might be 300 and 310, so create new TTYs with reference to 300 and 310.. and assign them to your new transfer varient.(4A)
Then go to OAY1, select your newly created TTYs and choose all check boxes for transfer APC only.
This might help you.
Thanks,

Asset Transfer - problems with incorrect depreciation values/period

Hi,
I'm trying to do an asset transfer between two company codes with transaction ABT1N using the gross method.
My problem is that when the asset is transferred the number of depreciation periods restart in the receiving company but with the net value from the sending company.
Example:
Company 1100:
Asset 1:
Aquired: january 2005
Value: 10 000 $
Depreciation time: 5 year x 12 months = 60 periods
Transfer to company 1200 on july 2007...
Depreciation in 1100 so far = 5 000 $
Net value to be transferred to CoCode 1200: 5 000 $
Here comes the problem, when I look at the depreciation time in company 1200 after the transfer, I see that the system now wants to depreciate the net value of 5 000 $ on another 60 periods period. This means that the asset will have a lifetime of 7,5 years in total instead of 5 years.
What I want to do is that after the transfer the depreciation should only by the the number of periods that is left from the original depreciation start in company 1100. This means that after the transfer there should only be 30 depreciation periods left in company 1200 on the transferred asset.
Thanks for response! I will add a lot of points to thoose that provides me with solution solving info.
Best regards
Carl-Johan

Carl,
This is where you can influence the fileds to be transfered in the transfer variant [1-Gross in your case].
Asset Accounting>Transactions>Intercompany Asset Transfers>Automatic Intercompany Asset Transfers>Define Transfer Variants-->Specify Transfer of Fields (for New Asset in Target CoCd)
Select the variant 1-Gross method and then click on the Depreciation area on the left bar. The system will display the all the Depreciation area for the Chart of Depr in question. Here for each depreciation area you can dictate what values from the old asset need to be trf to the new asset.
In your case, the system is not transfering the remaining useful life. Precisely you need to transfer the field group 19-Expired useful life and 20-Expired life in periods.
That should do the needful for you.
Have a nice day.
Vishal Thakur.

Issue in Depreciation Adjustment while Asset Transfer

Hi,
We have some old legacy assets which is capitalized in 2010 and depreciating for the last 4 years, These old assets contain the value of several different assets and the usefull life of the old asset is 50 years, Now we need to segregate these old asset to different new assets , my process contains
1) Creating new assets with different asset class with different usefull life
2) Transfer the respective value from the main asset to the new assets
3) Adjustment of depreciation already posted.
Here i am facing some issues regarding the asset transfer , anybody suggest which is the best way to transfer the asset acquisition value to new assets ?
when i am using ABUMN to transfer the values , system posting depreciation value adjustment which is the alredy posted depreciation for the past 4 years with the usefull life as 50 years. Is there any methode to adjust these value ?
If i am posting Asset transfer with F-02 (with negative posting) , system will transfer the net book value and start the depreiation calculation based on the usefull life of the new asset. Here system is not considering the depreciation already posted.
Is it possible to make changes in the system where assets will consider the depreciation start date as 2010 (old asset depreciation start date), If i am manually changing the depreciation start date then system is calculating the depreciation start date as 1st period of the current year (because previous years are alredy closed),
instead of 5 years usefull life ,system depreciated the values with 50 years, i need to adjust the posted depreciation and when i create a new asset with usefull life of 5 years i need to manage the asset as already 4 years usefull life is expired.
Is there any solution ?
Regards
San

Hi Ajay,
Case : We have an asset 1000, which contains a value of $ 100000, it was capitalizes in 2010 with usefull life of 50 years and past 4 years depreciating with 50 years usefull life, This is a legacy asset and contains the value of so mny different assets.
Now we need to create different assetd with different asset class and contains different usefull life, We need to transfer the value from Asset 1000 to these new created assets, here my concern is about the depreciation already posted to the asset 1000,
Assume my new assets value is $ 20000, i can transfer the value from asset 1000 to my new created asset. but here depreciation should be a problem because last 4 years depreciation is calculated as 20000 @ 50 years , but actual usefull life was 5 years.
Is there any methode to adjust the already posted depreciation.
Regards
San
