Issue In Asset Transfer

Hi
I have an issue in Asset. I have created an asset in a wrong asset class by mistake. Now I want to transfer the asset value to an asset created in the right asset class. But when I am doing this, the system is transferring the proptionate depreciation calculated to the new asset. Pls suggest
KM

Hi
It seems that the depreciation key has been configured to calculate the depreciation from the depreciation start key mainatained in the depreciation area. Hence, when you do the asset transfer, the system would post a pro rata depreciation from the depreciation start date to the date of transfer and transfer the same to the new asset. Howver, you can avoid that by changing the depreciation start date to the date of transfer. In such a case, no pro rata depreciation would not be calculated and transferred to the new asset.
Assign points if the information is useful to you

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 ?

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.

Error AU133 received while posting asset transfer

Hi Friends,
While posting asset transfer to affiliated co. (t.code ABT1N) got error message "Account 'Clear.revenue sale to affil.company' could not be found for area 01".
We have already maintained GL A/c in Ao90 in tab 'Clear.revenue sale to affil.company' .The asset is a AUC asset.
The GL is also existing in the co code from which the transfer is made.
Kindly help to solve the issue..
Thanks & Regards
Bhairavi

Hi Bhairavi,
1) the note is relevant for your release to check the transfer variants
2) In fact, when the field in OABE is selected the system uses another posting schema than the standard one (used when the OABE is not set).
3) Do you one or more depr areas which are derivied from area 01 ans use different accounts? For example:
AFAPL AFABER XSTORE ABVOR1 AFABE1 ABVOR2 AFABE2 VZANSW VZREST BUHBKT
ABCD   03            +      01     -      02     *      *      4
ABCD   05            +      01     -      04     *      *      4

Incorrect posting in asset accounting after legacy asset transfer

I have an issue in Asset accounting.
The depreciation key used is LINA (with a base method 0009 and Dec. bal. method 001 straight line depreciation)
My question is:
An asset was acquired 02/01/2005. It has an expected useful life of 1/11.
Under AS93.
I see the asset ***. acquisition value 205,695.00
Accu.ord. deprec - 78,784.06
The asset was transferred to SAP at 03/31/2007.
Now In aw01n I see the following:
Legacy data transfer Per 3 Ord. deprec 10,143.87
Posted Per 4 13,364.13
Posted 5 5877.00
Posted 6. 5877
Till 8th month posted 5877.
The posted values are wrong. Since it was transferred to SAP it has a useful life
of 1 year. At this rate it will go for 3 years.
What can I do to rectify this error?
Why is it posting 5877?
Thanks,

Hi Roma,
The useful life has to be the Total Useful life of the asset.
Since your useful life is less than the expired usefull life the system is calculating depr. for after the end of useful life, which for base method 0009 is curbing.
<i>Curb
With depreciation beyond the planned useful life, the depreciation percentage rate can be derived, not only from the planned useful life, but also from the actual useful life. This method produces a declining-balance effect instead of a straight-line effect (curb).
Use Base Method 0007, this does not curb.
Kind regards
An asset that originally had a useful life of 10 years is depreciated in year 11 by 1/11 = 9.09 %, in year 12 by 8.33 % and in year n with 100/n %.
When you use below-zero depreciation with a curb, the system determines the percentage rate, after the end of planned life, to the exact period and not to the year.</i>

ABT1N Intercompany Asset Transfer error: AA390   T type 230 not possible

Dear experts,
I am trying to post an intercompany asset transfer with trx code ABT1N but when simulating the error code
Transaction type 230 not possible (posting to affiliated company) appears. This is the explanation of the error:
Message no. AA390
Diagnosis
     For the current document, you specified either implicitly (via the
     customer/vendor), or explicitly (with a manual entry), that this posting
     is to an affiliated company. In this case, Asset Accounting requires you
     to use special transaction types. This enables the system to separately
     identify such transactions.
I do not understand the error because TType is "Retirement to affiliated company with revenue" so should be correct.
Does anybody know what could be wrong?
Cheers

Hi
Firstly, check out Note 209643.
Secondly, please read the long text of the error message again. The
transaction type must be set as "post to affiliated company". And
you must check back the followings :-
1. Please execcute function: SAP IMG -> FI -> asset accounting ->
    transaction -> specify default transaction type.
    You can find the default transaction type for "retirement from
    inter-company transfer" and "acquisition from inter-company
    transfer".
Then check in their definition whether they are relevant to
    affiliated company.
If they are NOT RELEVANT to affiliated company, you can
    substitute them with other transaction type Relevant to affiliated
    company.
2. Please check the definition of transfer variant. In the transfer
    variant, you have assigned the transaction type for both retirement
    and acqusition for relation type 1. Both transaction types should be
    set as "post to affiliated company" .
Please note that the abovementioned points must be checked because
the system logic will check the validity of the default value in
Point 1.
Then the transaction type in the point 2 will be used instead and
re-checked again.
Have you try to use 'No Reveune' in the specification for revenue?,
I think if it is afflicated companies, you are not allowed to use
revenue.
This error can also be produced because a wrong definition of the trans-
fer variants. Please have a look on note 327088 for further details.
Most of the issues on this matter were solved with this last Note.
Cheers, Blaz

Asset Transfer

Hi All,
We are Using T code ABUMN to transferring of existing asset and creating as new asset within company code to change of Cost center, but the existing asset has no value. The system issue below error message when posting,
Retirement/transfer on asset XXXXX 0 takes place with no values
Message no. AA396
I couldn’t find any solution for existing no value asset transfer. Please suggest the ways to solve.
Note: As best practice, we have grayed out cost center once asset master is created. So we cannot change directly in master.

HI Abu,
Since we want to transfer the asset from one business area to other business area, we have to remove the asset from business area where transfer happen and we have to show that asset in the history of receiver business area. So we cant transfer the asset with same number within the business area.
There is one tab called Time-dependent data in master data there you can set the time intervals for Asset.It's mainly designed for your requirement like.
When asset moved from one place to another place or another location you can set the time interval for that..
For example:
A asset belongs to ABC businessarea from 01/01/2008 to 30/06/2008
When asset moved to DEF business area you have to set interval for 01/07/2008 to 31/12/9999
Then that asset will be read undet DEF business area.
Hope it'll clear your requirement.
Thanks,
Puja

Error in Asset Transfer

Hi Sappers:
I am facing the following issue in intercompany asset transfer:
Asset numbers: 910000001608 and 910000001609 need to be transferred. The transfer will be moving the assets from company code 9001/cost center 1100105202 to company code 2001/cost center 1010105244.
While transferring the assets the following error appears: Account "Acquis. and production costs" could not be found
I checked up account assignments in T Code AO90 and the account for Acquisition and production costs has been defined.
What could be the issue here?
Thanks,
Appreciate your time!
VR

I just figured out that the Account 'Acquisition:Acquis. and production costs' which is defined in AO90 is defined as GL account (131511000) in the company code 9001 but not in company code 2001.
I believe creating the GL account 131511000 in 2001 should resolve the issue.
Any comments?
Appreciate your time!

Issue on asset tax depreciation balances

Dear Experts,
I have a critical issue to be resolved. Someone please guide me.
I want to change the opening balance, current year transactions
accumulated depreciation of year 2008 (Fiscal year variant V3 -
Apr to March) of group assets in tax depreciation area (15) using tcode
AS82. This is required because during data migration in 2006 the
tax dep values for group asset were not entered accurately. With
this the dep calculated was wrong resulting in wrong net bbok value
further wrong carry forward bal in 2007 Apr and so on. My client
now wants atleast correction of year 2008 values so that the future
calculations are right and done by SAP for tax report. What should I do
for this?
What impact would be there if I change Asset Transfer date because
when I go to AS82 to change the takeover values of a group asset in 2008
i get an error msg " Closed fiscal year doesnt agree with legacy data
transfer date" Transfer date is 31.07.2006. This is really critical
and I have been posting this from days but no response. Please help

Asset transfer date

Hi,
Thanks for ur response, till now we were not run the depreciation from the golive date, now they were reconciling the depreciation in AW01N with manually for the last fiscal year 2007 to run the depreciation. In the asset transfer date(IMG) it is showing 31.03.2005. I think somebody changed the take over date in asset transfer date. In Asset explorer (AW01N) it is showing difference value in Ordinary depreciation while comparing with manual depreciation and also in AS92 it is not showing the take over values getting green colour message as "Asset was not created as old asset data record - (Check your entry)" I had checked in development server. if I changed the Asset Transfer date it is asking the recalcuate the depreciation. My doubt this is correct solution, if it is correct shall I do this directly in Production. Kindly helpme in this issue.
Regards,
Prasad

Hi,
This defending upon your fiscal year varient. Is it Jan - Dec or Apr-Mar.
If Jan to Dec, change your asset transfer date to 29.02.2008 and upload it in any of the day in march or later. In this case, you have to upload all the assets purchased during last year with acc. depreciation and current yr procurement, you have two option, upload with 2 month dep or upload without dep and run the dep on 3rd month for period 3, it will post all 3 months dep at once.
If Apr-Mar, keep the data as such, upload the data on 1st Apr. All previous year procurement should be uploaded with acc. dep.
Hope it helps

ABUMN asset transfer

Hey Guys,
When doing an inter company asset transfer we are facing an issue as the current year depreciation for tax books remains on both the old and new asset. Before doing an asset transfer I could change the key to 0000 but in my copy controls I am copying the depreciation key to the new asset as well, so that will mean that the new asset will also get the key 0000 but I want the new key to use the original tax key that was assigned to the asset being transferred. How do you over come this issue?
This problem is only for the tax books
E.g. Asset 76333 is being transferred. key NA0
      Acquisition value            10000
      Accum Depreciation         5000
      Current year depreciation 200 ( half year convention)
   When I do an ABUMN- it copies all the information from the original asset
     New asset 76334
Acquisition value    10000
Accum depreciation 5000
Current year dep     200
The current year depreciation is being calculated for both the assets. If I change the key of the asset being retired to 0000 , then the new asset will also have key 0000. I want the new asset to have current year depreciation of 200 but the old asset should have 0000.
Please advice

Hi,
Your OAYZ settings will have priority over copy rules of dep key in AO21.
Change your dep key as required and post ABT1N with that asset and give sending asset as reference asset. Since your new asset will copy settings from OAYZ for the dep area tab, but not from the copy rules of sending asset.
I have tested too.
Thanks,
Srinu

ABUMN- Assets transfer between assets class within company

hi
i am using the T. code ABUMN for Assets transfer between one class to other with thin the same cpmpany for the assets purchased during currenting year not posting give error message AA417, for old assets it is working.
pls help to solve this issue
thanks and regards

Hello all,
We are testing the transaction ABUMN in a system version ECC 6.0 with New G/L activated and, we have received an error message GLT2152 asking for an account determination...
We have custumized the characteristics for general ledgers activating Zero balance & Mandatory field's flags for Profit center and, just Zero balance for the Segment; additionally we created and customized the Zero-balance Clearing Account.
We also checked that all involved accounts were included in the "Classify G/L Accounts for Document Splitting" customizing icon and, that the document type generated by the asset transfer is included in the "Classify Document Types for Document Splitting" one...
I personally think that perphaps the system finds that each Asset has a different Cost center (linked to their own profit centers and segments) so it stops and wonders which one most be derived for the splitting document... The zero balance clearing account could be the solution but, I don't know why it is not working...
So, since there is not any SAP-Note nor info regarding this error message GLT2152, we appreciate any comment or guidance from you friends.
Thanks a lot in advance and, best regards,
Manuel

Intercompany Assets Transfer

Hi,
Am using Tcode ABT1N for intercompany assets transfer. I was unable to transfer assets from one company code to another company code. I have entered all the details and if i click simulate, i got the error as asset is incomplete in the target company.
If i click on the master data button in the screen adn fill the capitalization date and depreciation area, then it is getting transferred.
The enduser don't know to do this.
Can any one please solve this and let me know how to proceed at the earliest.
Thanks in Advance
Deepthi.

Hi Deepthi,
Only if you press "enter" the coding block where error AAPO184 appears in the pop-up window for Master Data can be passed. Then you can go to the 'Master Data' push button and correct the data. To check the asset you can also use RAUNVA00 or AW01N.
If you user have problems you can make a validation where the user get a information which is more meaningful exactly to this special situation. A generic message does not fit every situation and the system should not be overloaded with messages. Thats the problem.
Generally if you get the message explicit required entries are missing. This concerns master data.   If you have defined required entries in asset master data you must fill this fields.
When you have made no entries in required fields you get this message. This is correct but if you made no entries in required fields and then you   press the bottom "Simulation" the system lost the bottom "master data".   Then you can´t correct the asset master data via the bottom "master data". True, the 'Master Data' push button disappears. But nevertheless, you will not be able to save the transaction, as again the system reminds you of the incomplete asset (required field in asset master data has not been filled yet) by issuing error AAPO184 again!
1) Can you please check your settings - is it correct that the field is required.?
Go to IMG (Transaction SPRO):
-> Financial Accounting
-> Asset Accounting
-> Transactions
   -> Intercompany Asset Transfers
    -> Automatic Intercompany Asset Transfers
     -> Define Transfer Variants
      -> Specify Transfer of Fields
       -> Specify Transfer of Fields (for New Asset in Target CoCd)
        -> Transfer variant 4
         -> Double click on 'Logical field group master data' folder
          -> Select 'Log.fld.gr' 1 (General data)
           -> Double click on 'Field transfer of field groups folder'
Here you might find that a field groups are marked to be copied to the new asset. If you don't want that the field is required, you should change the field transfer rules.
2. If the field is required, you also have to activate in the screen layout the relevant field.

Issue in Stock transfer

Hi
We have an issue in Stock Transfer. the Stock transfer happens between a manufacturing plant which is excise registered and a depot, which is not excise registered. We raise a Stock Transfer order from the depot on manufacturing plant with a freight component. The system creates a freight provision in the depot, when the goods issue is done by the manufacturing plant against the stock Transfer Order. After the goods issue the material is shown in Transit in report MB5T until the same is recieved by the depot. However, some goods are lost in transit and the same is recovered from the freight vendor. In such a case, we do a MIGO for the actual quantity recieved at depot and pass a debit note to vendor by loading the difference to material.
The issue is:
1. the quantity and the value of the physical inventory recieved have been rectified by a recovery from the vendor.
2. However, how can we remove the goods, which we have short recieved from the report MB5T
The certain work around we have thought could be :
1. Receive the quantity in full at the recieveing Depot and then scrap the material to the extent it has been received short through M Type 551. However, the issue arises in case of transfer of goods from one manufacturing plant to another, where in both are excise registered. In such a case, goods receipt in full would not be correct as it would raise issues in excise registers.
Please suggest
Regards
Sanil K Bhandari

Hi,
One suggestion is you can pass a document through MB1A for material loss in transit for the mateial lost.
Followign accounting Entry would be hit :
Transporter shrinkage Clearing Dr
to Inventory Raw Mateial Cr
You can pass the same document through Mvt. Type 951 (GI Lost in Transit).
