Maintaining an asset without GL reconciliation flag

Hi Folks,
My client wants to maintain Leased Capital Assets out of SAP because they want to post these assets manually due to step up reasons. For that purpose he wants to remove the reconciliation flag from GL master data for both accounts - that is leased cap asset account and accumulated depreciation for leased cap asset account.
I have two questions;
1- We can remove automatic posting only flag form GL master data and leave these as a reconciliation accounts. Why do we need to terminate the status of these accounts as asset reconciliation accounts? As how they would maintain balance in AA ledger.
2- What could be the impact of this delinking in future?
Please also guide the right process for maintaining this account with manual postings.
Thanks

That is because of the following reasons:
1 - I believe the leased asset functionality in AA is not able to handle the increases in lease payments that occur over the duration of a lease term. Almost all the leases for my client have at least one increase in lease payment over the lease term (called step ups).
2 - SAP records the obligation under capital lease as a long term payable to the lessor. For my client's future reporting purposes this obligation will eventually need to be disclosed as a separate line item on the balance sheet, which will require a manual adjusting entry to transfer the amount from accounts payable into a new reporting category.
3 - Client also requires that the obligation under capital lease be reduced by the portion attributed as principal in the lease calculation, SAP calculates the reduction in obligation as the total cash payment to the lessor.
4 - Client desires the calculated interest to be part of the Obligation under Capital Lease, SAP only includes this as a liability.
in the light of foregoing, client wants to calculate and track Capital Leases through excel spreadsheets and doing manual entries into SAP to record these transactions.
Please advise

Got error "Enter distribution rule for Asset without a validity limit"

Hi
I need to make AUC settlement to GL account using t.code AIAB. I have maintained the settlement rule but when I click on check button I got message " Enter distribution rule for Asset without a validity limit". The error msg no. KD059.
Thanks in advance.

Please do the
following. , instead of assigning cost center, assign fixed asset(any asset)
Then go back and click on detach then create your normal rule again at the same
line
The rule is that AUC should have at least one settlements rule for fixed asset
even if it not used

Difference in Assets balances and Reconciliation

Dear Gurus,
We have carried out fixed assets depreciation run till 31/12/2008. Few of the assets were posted automatically and rests were manually. Having done that we have found out the mismatch between Reconciliation and assets balances. Reconciliation balances are correct, however, there is mismatch in assets balances. Upon analysis, we have found out that opening balances as on 01/04/2008 of few of the assets (especially posted manually during this year) have got changed and resultantly caused a discrepancy. Please note that Reconciliation and assets balances as on 01/04/2008 were in sync and tallied. But, this seems to have changed after our depreciation run till 31/12/08.
We have also referred to SAP note # 104567, and its related notes, but it suggests to adjust the Reconciliation balances, However, we need to modify Assets sub-ledger balances without affecting Reconciliation balances which are tallied and audited until 31/12/08.
Early solution will be highly appreciated as we have held up assets related transactions till this issue is fixed.
Thanks,
Nirav

Can we build equity and acquire assets without banks while rebuilding credit??

Hi.Thank you for taking a look at my post. I hope we can help each other. I have 3 goals for this post. 1 - to reach out to this community for opinions, leads, and hopefully contact info for private lenders who really do lend based on the asset and not focus on our marred credit. 2 - maybe members (and of course me) can find someone else on this site who is/are in similar situations and can put resources together to start making lots of money without the banks. 3 - just being honest...I simply need to vent my frustrations in a safe environment where I'm sure there are others who can relate :-) I am getting back into real estate fix & flip, rehab after several years of life altering events and recuperating from personal injuries. I am not an agent or anything like that. I'm just really good at finding and negotiating awesome deals that I end up having to flip. I've worked my butt off to save and purchased one here and there but I need to find funding to get to the next level. I joined this site because my credit is in repair and I'm working the information I read about in this forum. Having gone from a high level of success to wondering how I was going to get from the bedroom to the bathroom, I feel like this is the one place I can trust to put myself out there and get meaningful, non-judgmental peer-peer responses with solid pertinent information. Hence why I could use some opinions and hope to get some leads on lenders that might help me out. With several properties under contract, I'll have to flip to other buyers at discounted values if I can't find a lender. I've spoken with about 20 lenders who claim they are "private", "hard money", "Asset-based" commercial loans, investor driven, bad credit, blah...blah...blah...only to find out they really are just like dealing with a bank. I am not claiming to have great credit and I realize on paper I look pretty weak. However, the whole time they are making claims they are not credit driven...what do you think the first thing they want is...yup...credit scores! Even though the numbers of the asset are very strong and purchased in an LLC. They all require full doc personal financials...the whole time they are saying they don't really judge you on credit....RIGHT! While these "direct lenders" and "private money lenders" may not have to work under the federal bank lending regulations, THEY are not interested in anyone who doesn't meet THEIR rigid requirements. Which in reality are exactly the same as the regular banks. I have yet to find one lender that truly bases their decisions on the property asset without pulling credit, bank statements, etc. They all will only lend a portion of what is needed (50 -75% LTV or LTC )based on the lowest value they can determine (Purchase price or appraisal which ever is lower) which means they have essentially no risk and the investor has to bring in a lot of cash. No difference. They are essentially all the same and just boast about being different. This is all fine if that is how they run their business. I am the last to judge them for that. However, I am tired of wasting my time talking to company after company making these claims but really won't put their money where their mouth is!! I have also looked into a lot of the sites for peer-peer funding. In general they are all fantastic and serve a great purpose. Especially for kids and fundraising purposes. But I'm working on a business. On those sites, you really have to put your self out there on the front line and air your dirty laundry to the world in order to participate. I realize I could do that and tell my sad story and why I want people to invest in me and my project. Frankly, maybe I'm too proud or going about this all wrong but I'm just not ready to post my story to the world and ask my friends and family for handouts. I don't want people feeling sorry for me or my name all over the internet telling people my credit sucks (even though it isn't that bad now). Let's be honest - who posts on a peer-peer funding site for their own benefit if you have your financial life in order!! That said, I'm sure none of us would be on this site if we didn't have or have had financial turmoil in our lives. Who cares why.. it happens. Hopefully, we all realize that is not what defines us as people and we can all achieve our dreams like any one else. It just might take longer, or a bit more work. You get the picture. So I thought, what if others on this site are experiencing the same things. Do you feel like you are missing out on opportunities to make your money grow? Maybe you have improved your credit but don't have enough cash to get a loan. Maybe you can't get a loan because of credit but you have cash. Maybe you can't get a bank account and are missing out on investment opportunities because your money is sitting under your mattress. Seems to me people on this sight are all focused on the same thing and have the best interests of others in sight. We also have this fantastic forum to discuss our money issues and glean insight and information from others that helps us improve our situations. I'm wondering if we could partner up our strengths and find ways to benefit by working together with other like minded members. You thoughts are of great value. Please post.

Are you debt free? Do you have any cash to throw into this? If no... what about subbing out under someone else or getting in GCing or Foreman for a bigger company while you cleanup your personal finances? Real estate is AWESOME, but if you can't cashflow at least a good chunk of it, you can get in a pretty scary spot... What kind of assets do you have? Could you flip your own home and use those monies to invest in your next flip and live as cheap as possible through a few flips until you have a good bit of cash built up?

How to change Amts in Assets'-- G/L Reconciliation Acctts after closing

Hi Experts,
I want to change / modify the Accumulated Depreciation Amounts for some Fixed Assets-->>G/L reconciliation Accounts.
This I want to do in the very first initial year (2005) - when the assets were first loaded / transferred from legacy system into SAP. This 2005 was also the year when SAP Production client started.
Moreover, the previous year 2005 has been closed now. The production client and company codes are active and productive.
Please tell me the procedure (or transaction codes) as to how to do that ????.
Please do not ask why ??? or how will I tally Assets sub-Ledger with Main Ledger OR how will I justify all these in previous balance sheets (which have already been generated) etc etc etc - Please no doubts and No Questions - only answers.
Please do not mind for my above statement because I only want to learn from you - respecting you as my guru.
I will definitely award points with free hand.
Thanks & Regards
Rajeev Sharma.

You say not to ask you why. However, you must have a very good reason for doing this. Asset Accounting is a subledger of the General Ledger. Therefore they MUST BE KEPT IN SYNC. If you make direct changes to the accounts, you will in essence put the two OUT OF SYNC. That will cause problems during any reconciliation process -- quarter end or year end.
Normally, when legacy data is first loaded, the reconciliation process ensures that the data for assets in asset accounting is in sync with the general ledger. At that time adustments are made to either the individual assets or to the gl accounts to ensure that they are in sync. After that point you SHOULD NOT manually change the balances in the gl accounts.

Capitalize asset without posting to accounts

Dear all,
We have a scenario, where we like to capitlaze asset in Tax depreciation area (which is not relevent for Posting to accounts) and in the book depreciation area, we need to expense it out.
Please provide your valuable inputs to deal this scenario.
i have tried creating Transaction type limiting to Tax Depreciation area, but finally not able to find a way to capitalize a asset without positing to accounts and capiltalizing only in Tax Derpeciation area.

Srinivas

Hi Srinu
Thats not the right way of doing it...
Still if you want to achieve that -
1. Un-tick the "Identical values" button in Dep Area Definition.. You might have currently set up Dep Area 15 to adopt values from Area 01
2. Create a new tr type (Copy of 100) and restrict it to Tax dep area, as you did
3. Now, execute T code ABSO with this trans type....
But, I repeat again, the solution I gave earlier is the std way of doing it...

Can we close Fiscal Year for Assets without posting Depreciation?

Hi All,
My client has 11 Company Codes. During the year end activity, I closed the FY of Assets for 10 Co. codes (T.code AJAB) and 1 is pending as depreciation is not posted for some assets yet. The client wants me to close the FY for assets without posting the depreciation.
Can anyone guide me on following doubts:
1. Is it possible to Close FY for assets without posting depn?
2. If YES, then what can be the adverse consequences of it?
3. If NO, then what is the alternative reply I can give to my client?
I hope the above info. is sufficient.
Regards
Amarendra

Hi All,
Finally I got the solution. I had to do some off track adjustment which might not be allowed otherwise. After getting that confirmation from the client that:
1. They want to post zero values towards Depreciation for the year 2007 &
2. After closing the year, later on there wont be any adjustments for the closed FY 2007
When client gave me above confirmation i did following steps:
1.Note down the Current Depreciation Key of the asset
2.Change the current depreciation key to u201C0000 - No depreciation and no interestu201D (TC: AS02)
3.Close the fiscal year 2007 (TC: AJAB)
4.Change the u201COrdinary Depreciation Startu201D date to 01.04.2008 for ALL the Depreciation Areas of that asset (AS02)
5. Restore the Depreciation Keys of the assets as per the step 1 (TC: AS02)
6.Open New Fiscal Year 2009 (TC: AJRW)
So now the depreciation will be calculated from 01.04.2008 and no values are posted towards depreciation for the year 2007.
Off course in the normal course of time above solutions are useful.

Amarendra

One step, two step in Table Maintenance Generator
Single step: Only overview screen is created i.e. the Table Maintenance Program will have only one screen where you can add, delete or edit records.
Two step: Two screens namely the overview screen and Single screen are created. The user can see the key fields in the first screen and can further go on to edit further details.

What is Reconciliation Flag in General Ledger.

What is feature of GL Reconcilation available in R12. How should we update the Reconciliation Flag automatically.

This is to allow reconciliation of accounts which should net to zero.
The configuration is to flag which account codes should net to zero and therefore be automatically reconciled if net to zero.
I have not actually used this feature as yet but i guess it means those flagged accounts do not have to be manually reconciled at month end if they net to zero and therefore
shows that there is some issue if they do not net to zero.
Hope this helps.

Asset Legacy dt upld-problem in uploading fiscal year assets without value

Hi all ,
I am trying to upload Assets which are pertaining to current Fiscal year and for which no depreciation run is taken place , using Tcode AS91,
Initially I got error :
Capitalization date must be earlier than or same as transfer date.
Then I changed transfer date to 31.03.2009 .
Now I am getting error :
Current fiscal year 2008 has to be after transfer date 31.03.2009 .
How do I take these Assets with / without values ?
and if without values , then how can I update Asset values ?
Regards ,
Pallavi .

Hi Ramesh,
I have same scenaio we are uploading the assets on 30.09.2008, so our data transfer date is same.
The issue is
1. When we start AS91 for current year, assets takeover values fields are in display mode.
System configuration was:-
A). Legacy data transfer date was 30.09.2008
B). last period posted in previous system was 6th
C). capitalized date taken by me is after 31.03.2008 (Note: - when I take capitalization date before 31.03.2008, than system show me take over tab in change mode)
2). While doing AS92 also system shows me all takeover tab fields in display mode, when I select capitalization date after 31.03.2008.
The thing is that how we can upload all those assets which we have purchased in the current year and how we will treat with the depreciation in the system
up to which date we should take accumulated dep for previous year assets.
please answer if u want i can raise a seprate question.
Regards

Maintaining BW Masterdata without Source System

Hi all,
In my clients BW system several Masterdata exits without a Source System (for example in case of BPS applications). Masterdata is maintained by the IT department on behalf of the end-user or by loading flat-files.
My client would like to have a user-friendly solution for maintaining the Masterdata by the end-users. Anyone has ideas how to achieve this?
Release is 3.5 but upgrade to 7.0 is planned for the near future.
Thnx in advance,
Henk.

Hi,
you can create a BPS manual entry screen and fill data to an infocube.
Later use your infocube as a data source for your character.
You can also manage the data load with a process chain that updates the master data everyday ( for example ).
Hope this helps.

View Cluster: Maintain Master Data without a prompt for transport

Hello,
I have two tables which have been defined as Application Tables with Display/Maintenance Allowed.
These two tables have been defined in a View Cluster.
But, the View cluster prompts to create a Transport Request when ever data is being maintained in these tables.
I would like to have the data maintained without a transport prompt.
The table maintenance for these tables was generated using One Step maintenance type and Standard recording routine.
Is there a setting that needs to me made in order for this to work?
Thanks in advance.

Suhas Saha is right. Important is, that those settings suhas sad, are in maintanaince of table/view, not in cluster view.
so: go to se11, insert table/view, click on change, go utillities->table maintenance generator ->click on radio no or user defined routine, than SAVE, thne go environment->maintenance objects->generate, and here select no transport , and save.
thats all.

Mass delete unposted assets without values through worklist in AS06

Hi,
I would like to delete unposted assets(got a list of asset numbers without values assigned) from AS06. I managed to create the worklist to store all the asset numbers. And from the AS06 screen, I went to SAP menu, Environment ->Worklist -> Delete Asset. But I could not because the worklist submenu items(include asset, delete asset and find asset) are all disabled(gray out).
May i know if there is anyway this can be enabled for me to do mass delete of AS06. Or any available screen that enable me to do this.
I am aware of the alternative is to write a BDC program for mass delete of unposted assets. However, I would like to explore the standard features to avoid having the code.
Any advice.
Thanks,

Hello
could you explain it in mote details?
Thank you very much!
