Low Value Assets

Dear SAP experts,
I have a scenario with my company where we have different amount for LVA by category. For example, say Maximum amount for LVA for Software is 4000, furniture 10000 and office equipment 5000.
The system will allow me to define three LVA asset classes each for software, furn

Hi,
You can set this through the following path:
IMG -> Financial accounting -> Asset Accounting -> Valuation -> Specify Max.amount for low value assets + asset classes.
In this select- Specify LVA asset classes.
Under this you can specify maximum amount as per asset classes and depreciation area too.
Hope this solves your issue.

   Value is 5,000 rs
3. at OAY2 selected option is u201CCheck maximum amount with qtyu201D
I created POu2019S for below 2 options

But same error.

Hi,
I think you are using a single asset master record in all your line items in the PO.
If you use individual asset master record for each line item in the PO, you issue might solve.
Post again for further queries.

Low value asset error at the time of goods receipt (MIGO)

Hi
I am testing the FI MM integration - Asset acquisition through PO.
I created a PR and a PO for Laptop @ rs. 200000
At the time of posting goods receipt I am getting the following error:
Total value per quantity should be more than 5000 in this class
Message no. ZFIAAMSG005
I checked the Low value setting in the asset class- it is NO maximum value check
Can anyone pl. help in this?
Thank you
Vedavatee.

Hi:
It looks like to me if there is validation working in background . Please check in GGB4 there will validation active for this asset class . Low value asset check restricts you from posting an amount as specified in OAYK. Please check.

Required G?L accounts for Low Value Assets configuration

Hi Experts,
Please suggest me, what are the required G/L accounts for FI-AA integration i.e OAOA for Low Value assets.
Waiting for the reply.
Regards,
Vani.

Hi Vani,
You need to assign separate GL accounts for LVA if you intend to create them as a separate class with different account determination,screen layout etc.
Otherwise the same GL accounts that have been assigned to the regular Asset classes, can be used for the flow of data relating to APC value of LVA and the depreciaiton.
Hope I have given the required info.

Full depreciation for low value assets

Hi Gurus,
How to set up depreciation key of low value assets to get asset fully depreciated irrespective of depreciation start date.
For example :

O.Dep.Start Date : 14/05/2006
In the above case depreciation was calculated only for 322 days
But I need to calculate depreciation for 365 days ie 100%.
Please advice.

There is a standard depreciation key with description LVA 100%. i am not sure if dep key is GWG or something else.

Configuration of Low value assets

Dear All,
I have created a seperate asset class for low value assets. Assigned value based maximum amount check in depriciation area and maximum limit in asset class for low value asstes.
Stlii, when I am creating asset through AS01 for low value asset class, it s creating assets for greater values also.
Kindly suggest
Swati

Hi Swati,
By Low value Assets it is meant that if the Value of the Asset at the time of F-90 is equal to or less than the amount specified in configuration, provided the corresponding LVA indicator is set in the asset class.
If the amount that you are trying to capitalize is more than the amount specified.. system will stop you in F-90. It does not stop you from creating an Asset Master record, because while creating a master record we do not have values of the Asset.

Low value asset

Hi experts
please send me the documentation for treatment of low value assets and also send me end user manuals to the below mail id

SAP uses the tem Low Value Assets to denote assets which will be depreciated in the year of purchase or in the period of acquisition. This categorization usually follows the statutory requirements of the country of the Company Code, wherein you define a monetary limit and consider all those assets falling below the value, say $1,000, as low value assets. You have the flexibility of managing these assets either on an individual (individual check) basis or collective basis (quantity check).
SAP uses a special depreciation key called LVA, and the expected useful life of such an asset is considered to be one period (month).
You may look at the book 'SAP FICO Demystified: Questions & Answers' by BPB Publishers, India for more such clarifications. You may also pre-order the book, if you are outside India. See the details at:
http://www.amazon.com/Questions-Answers-CD-ROM-Computer-Science/dp/1934015229/ref=sr_1_1/104-0420828-4483917?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1194360912&sr=8-1

Low Value Assets master records

I need to have a solution for my issue.
We want to manage certain assets which are having minor value and the same needs to be depreciated in the same year.
For this purpose, I am thinking about the Low Value Assets functionality. When I go through the help, I find that :
"In contrast to fixed assets of greater value, low value assets (LVAs) are completely depreciated in the year in which they are acquired. Therefore, you do not usually need an individual assessment of their values. Since they individually have little value, they are often managed collectively as a single asset master record.."
It says we need to have only one single asset master record. My doubt is then how we can represent different assets ? viz. I have one calculator, briefcase, mobile phone, buzzer clock, paper cutter, etc. How can I represent each of these in the Low Value Asset single master record ?

Hey,
Most of the companies create separate assets for LVA. When help says create one asset, they keep in mind that we
want to 100% complaint and have all assets in SAP and so we create assets for value at even min. In countires like US
any amount less than $500 can be writen-off. Large number of assets mean high performance. Hence they say one asset for LVA. You can ignore this statement at help and create separate assets for LVA.
Hope this helps you.

Error in Asset Master Creation for Low Value assets

Hi,
I am trying to create an asset under the asset class Low value asset. while saving the asset the system delivers the following Error:
01 Book depreciation
E614 Low value asset max.amount exceeded. No posting allowed
02 Special tax depreciation for APC in fin.statement
E614 Low value asset max.amount exceeded. No posting allowed
I am using the standard Depreciation Key "GWG" But when i change the depreciation key the system allows me to save the asset. Please guide me how to fix this and why system is giving this error.
Regards,

I suppose you need to check your configuration of Low Value Assets for each
depreciation area.
But before that, please tell me which class of Assets you are using ......Is
it the *LVA Class 5000 ( individual management )* or* 5001 ( collective
management)*. Either way, you need to assign a maximum value / maximum value
over quantity, as the case may be. Unless and until you furnish a value cap,
the asset class does not permit you to create asset master records.
Please look into your IMG under the path:
*IMG -> Financial Accounting -> Asset Accounting -> Valuation ->Amount
Specifications(Company Code / Depreciation Area) ->
Specify Maximum Amount for LVA + Asset Classes*
You would see two activities listed.
Under *Activity 1*, you need to select and assign value check (*represented
by number 1*) if you are using *LVA Class 5000* ; alternatively, you need
to select and assign Check Maximum Amount with Quantity (*represented by
number 2*) if you are using *LVA class 5001*.
You need to do this for each depreciation area you wish to apply this value
cap to and save (using the floppy icon and look out for the confirmatory
message at the bottom left of your screen).
Under *Activity 2,* You need to furnish a value cap ( a ceiling in monetary
units, currency-specifically) for each depreciation area ( a column for
document value and another for Purchase order value ( possibly to
accommodate any tax, as applicable). Please make sure that you do it for
your company code and for each depreciation area wherein you want to control
using a value cap.
Save and look for the confirmatory message at the bottom left of the screen.

Low value asset max.amount exceeded

Hi all,
When doing a full settlement in CJ88, I am getting the following error: 'Low value asset max.amount exceeded. No posting allowed'. When I have defined a new asset class, I have copied from a LVA class. The new asset class is not an LVA asset class, therefore there is no limitation. Then, why am I getting the above error?
Please help.
Thanks,

Low value asset history

hi,
pls tell me about the 'what is meant by low value asset&configuration setting

Low Value Asset means Asset which have a little value.
In General, LVA are fully depreciated in the year of purchased or in the period of the acquisition.
This can be achieved (the configuration setting) by using the special depreciation key = GWG and the expected useful life of one month (period) .
GWG is SAP standard Depreciation key. So you do not need to configure anything.
You can use the depreciation key directly in your asset master data.
You also can set the maximum amount for the value asset (this is optional configuration) using :
IMG -> Financial Accounting -> Asset Accounting -> Valuation -> Amount
Specifications (Company Code/Depreciation Area) -> Specify Max. Amount
+for Low-Value Assets + Asset Classes+
Hope you get clear with the LVA now.
