Is it possible to stop depreciation for a certain period?

Hi all,
I am wondering if it is possible, and how it is done if yes, to stop the depreciation. For example in the 2nd year of an asset the user wants no depreciation on that asset for 5 months, after which the asset starts depreciating again. Also life is prolonged for this 5 months.
Thanks for ideas!

Hi,
You can Use Shutdown check box and give the shutdown interval in the Time dependent data tab of Asset master.

Stop Depreciation for a specific Dep Area

All
I am able to stop depreciation for a specific period. My requirement is to stop depreciation for a specific Depriciation Area -01. My client has 4 dep area's (01,02 & ..). Depriciation has stopped in both the depriciation areas (01&02). I had activated Asset shut down and increased the useful life only for Dep Area 01 & not Dep area 02. Both Dep Ar. 01 & 02 use the same Dep Key. Client requirement is Dep has to be stopped for a specific period and specific Dep Area(01). I had stopped dep for a specific period but this has stopped for both the dep area's (01&02)..
Is there a solution to the above. Please let me know if any.

Check by marking indicator D-Default value from company code and depreciation area in definition of depreciation key in AFAMA.

Stop depreciation for an Asset

Hi,
I understand when we create a asset master, the number of life years and the depreciation key are copied from the asset class it belongs to.
However, the finance side requires to pause depreciation for a asset, or they could want to stop depreciation for this asset, and how do we go about doing it? The situation now is that this asset already have depreciation posted.
I appreciate any help.
Thanks

You can use the asset shutdown functionality so you can pause the depreciation for a given period of time.
AS02 > Time dependent tab , click the asset shutdown. In case asset shutdown is not available, check spro and customise fixed asset master data.
Hope this helps.

How to stop Depreciation for some assets & start again.

Dear Friends,
We have a requirement where we have to stop Depreciation for some assets as they are not in use and again post depreciation when they put in use.
For ex: Asset Value is 10,000 and monthly Depreciation is 100. Asset has been depreciated for first 6 periods in year with 100 each in every month & we want to stop depreciation for coming 3 months and post depreciation when they put in use. Asset should not be depreciated when they are not in use and calculate regular 100 if we run depreciation again if we put in use. So total Depreciation of the asset for the year should be 900 (First 6 Months & last 3 months).
Please explain step by step process to do this and your kind cooperation to solve this issue is highly appreciated.
Points will be rewarded for sure if my problem solves.
Thanks & Regards,
Naveen Kumar.

Go to AS03 Asset Master/Dep tab and observe the dep key
Goto AFAMA and select that dep key and click on assignment of calculation methods
You can see last row for shutdown field and select YES
Go to asset master at AS02/Time dependent data and select shutdown check box and enter period
If shutdown check box is not available goto as03 and goto menu environment-screen layout and master data and identify the screen layout number
Go to SPRO-Financial Accounting (New)-Asset Accounting-Master Data-Screen Layout-Define Screen Layout for Asset Master Data-Define Screen Layout for Asset Master Data-
Select your screen layout and click on logical field groups and select 3 (Time dependent data) and click on field group rules and make shutdown field as optional.
This will allow you to change the shutdownfield asset master data.

Stop depreciation for few months

Hi,
I want to stop depreciation for few months.
For those months system should not calculate the depreciation.
for example, i dont want to calculate depreciation for assests for the sep, oct months, after that system should calculate depreciation.
how to proceed this.

HI,
The system will calculate the depreciation based on the useful life defined. But depreciation won't be calculated for the shutdown period as defined in the Asset Master.
For example if you define 12 periods (1 to 12) of useful life for an asset, and assume that shut down period is 3 and 4, then the depreciation won't be calculated for period 3 and 4 but the useful life of the asset will be extended to the period 13 and 14. (i.e period 1 and 2 of next year). and the depreciation will be calculated for period 1 and 2 of next year.
Thanks

In oneasset class i have created 2 assets by using of aso1 after that i acquired one asset for that i run the depreciation for first 5 periods, it has been showing depreciation for those period but if i am trying to run the depreciation for second asset i

in on asset class i have created 2 assets by using of aso1 after that i acquired one asset for that i run the depreciation for first 5 periods, it has been showing depreciation for those period but if i am trying to run the depreciation for second asset it is not showing first 5 periods why it is not showing? Is there any reason?

Hi
Repeat run you can do only for the last depreciation period. For the asset which you are tryin to post depreciation from July to Jan, please check the asset value date which you have given while posting the transactions or in the asset master.
If the asset value date is in July, then deprecaition from July - Jan will get posted in the current month depreciation in total. You will not be able to post depreciation individually month wise using AFAB.

Sales Analysis for a certain period

Hello Experts,
In standard Sales Analysis Report, when we run report for a certain period for "Customers" and when we run the report with same parameters for "Items" it gives different results.
Can anybody please guide me, why these results are different whereas we are using the same parameters in both the Tabs i.e. Customers & Items.
Thanks & Regards,
SN

Hi Shazad,
One possible reason is that you have service type documents in that period. In such case, the document total appears in Customers tab, but not in the Items tab.
Could this be the case?
I hope that helps.

Valuated stock for a certain period

Hi all,
Using transaction MC.9 (Material Analysis: Stock), you can search for a material for a certain period (ea. 04.2007). The outcome gives you the Valuated Stock for that period.
In which table is this Valuated stock stored?
How can I fetch this Valuated Stock (through table, BAPI, ...?
Many thanks in advance.

Hi,
Reading data from MBEWH is tricky since as you correctly pointed out there may not be any record in MBEWH for a particular period.The logic for creating a record in MBEWH is for first relevent entry in the current month create a history record in MBEWH i.e. e.g. if there is a say GIR or any stock movement today & if this happens to be the first entry for materialValuation area then it will create a record in MBEWH for the previous period i.e. 2008/03. Now suppose there is no movement at all say for the period 2008/04 & say 2008/05 materialValuation area in that case as per the above mentioned logic for the first record of the materialVal area for the period 2008/06 it will write a record for 2008/05 but there will be no record for the period 2008/04.so to get the currect valuated stock get all records for materialval area into an internal table where
period i.e YYYYMM is GE period under consideration. Then sort the internal table on matnrbwkeybwtarlfgjalfmon. Then loop at the internal table & if you hit the first record pick up the stock i.e the stock you are interested in & exit from the loop. However if no record is found in the internal table get the details directly from MBEW. & that's it. You may refer to SAP help for the same. (search for MBEWH)
I hope this helps,

To stop depreciation for 2 months

Hi All,
I have one asset capitalized in August and the depreciation start date is 01-Aug-2010. Now the asset will be used actually
from November 2010. I want to stop the depreciation calculation from 1st August to 31st October 2010. I can't use asset shutdown feature and I can't change the depreciation start date to a later date. What may be the possible solution to stop planned dep. calculation for the specified period.
Regards,
Santanu

Hi Santanu
To realize your business scenario, you set additional depreciation intervals in depreciation area by going through following steps:
1, AS02 -> Tab : Depreciation -> double click on depreciation area
2, click on button u2018more intervalu2019 -> click on button u2018add intervalu2019 -> input 2010.10.01 to field u2018From-Date of New Intervalu2019
3, in first period from 1900.01.01 to 2010.09.30, use depreciation key u20180000u2019
In second period from 2010.10.01 to 9999.12.31, use original depreciation key.
Hope itu2019s helpful

How to reverse the posted depreciation for a particular period..?

Hi Experts,
Please solve my problem, that my client users are changed the depreciation key in last month as per legal requirement. While changing the depreciation key they select the wrong depreciation key and run the depreciation in AFAB. But after running the depreciation they came to know that amount is wrong because of the wrong depreciation key. So now they want reverse the entry for last month only and post the new entry with changed depreciation key.
Please give me advise how to reverse depreciation for only Last month. That should effect the all previous posting.
Regards
Narendra

Hi,
Depreciation Posted of only of the Previous Fiscal years
can be reversed using ABZU Write-Up.
ABZU -->Reverse the Past
Dep. For current depreciation reversal you have no alternative except reversing
co code depreciation document posted using OAGL and then repost it.

How do we calculate Accumulated Depreciation for a Particular Period

Dear Members,
How do we calculate the Accumulated Depreciation for a particular asset. It would be great if some body can explain me ,what tables should we use.
I read that Accumulated Depreciation is nothing but deprn_reserve column in fa_deprn_summary table. I have to make a report which should show the accumulated depreciation for an asset by period name. (eg : For MAY-07 the report should give the accumulated depreciation for that asset).
Please give your suggestions.
Thanks
sandeep

Hi,
You can use DEPRN_RESERVE from fa_deprn_summary to get accumulated deprn. Make sure you select the latest row from fa_deprn_summary for a particular period.
Use FA_DEPRN_PERIODS to join with period_counter if you wnat to use Period Name as criteria.
Cheers

Recalculation of Depreciation for the previous periods

Hi All,
I am new to this forum, I have one query regarding the recalculation of depreciation.
Client wants to increase the life of the asset and depreciation change should be effected from 01/07/2010 (FY start). Depreciation has already posted from July to December 2010. We are following SLM & WDV methods.
I know we have the options like smoothing and catchup. But client wants to update/post to respective periods and in AW01N for each period it should show the depreciation as per the change in life of the asset.
It would be of great help, if you look into this matter.
Thanks in advance
Kind regards
Shanid

Hi Viswa,
Thank you for your prompt reply. I tried with your answer, when I ran AFAB with posting period 1, I am getting below error.
"You want to carry out a repeat depreciation posting run in period 001. However, the last posting run was for period 006.
Start the repeat run again using period 006".
Kind Regards
Shanid
