Mass disposal of Assets

Hi Friends,
Can you please suggest Is there any possibility to Retire group of Assets (Mass Disposal).
If any procedure is there can you please give me detailed information how to do this.
Thanks
Shafi

Hello
Yes, there is a way to do the mass retirement.
The selection of fixed assets and the basic procedure for mass
retirement is carried out using the same functions as a mass change
to asset master data. You use a worklist and workflow procedures. For
mass retirements, there are the standard workflow scenarios: Retirement
with revenue and Retirement without revenue (scrapping). When you
create a worklist, you have to make entries needed for posting the
mass retirement (such as the posting date).
So you have to:
1 - Create a worklist with a list of the assets to be retired (most of standard asset reports allow you to create a worklist
2 - Make entries for mass retirement (Posting date, document date,
Transaction type, Asset Value Date, etc.)
3 - Release or process the worklist (AR01)

thanks

Hi
Yes U Can post the multiple asset retirement through F-92 but you have to post separate credit line item for each asset (Asset Clearing Account).
Expample
Customer                                  - Dr
Asset clearing (Asset X)                           Cr
Asset Clearing (Asset X2)                         Cr
Asset Clearing (Asset X3)                         Cr.
System will calculate the corresponding entries of accumulated depreciation and gain/loss separately for each asset.
Thanks

Transaction type to dispose the asset only for the depn areas 01 and 02

One of the Company codes XXXX plant XXXX has an isuue for asset # XXXXXXXXXX-0 this asset was partially retired in Nov.2008 and now its acquisition value is JPY312,428
which should not be an asset under US GAAP but qualify for asset under Tax book . So it needs be removed from US and JCC book(01 and 02 area) but keep the record on the Tax book(area 15).
Is there any transaction type to dispose this asset only for the 01 and 02 area but keep the historical data for 15 area?
Thanks for helping in advance

Can I suggest you a way to handle this? Just give a try and see whether it works for you or not.
Post a Credit entry to the Asset only to the area 01 and 02. Please follow the below steps before you do this.
1. Go to main SAP screen => System => User profile => Own data => Parameters
Add parameter ID FAA_FB01_AREA_SWITCH (Turn On Value Entry at Area Level for FB01) and mark "x" against it in Parameter value. Save this changes.
2. Go to F-02, Enter the Asset number (posting key 75 and transaction type 105, which ever you feel like) and then in the next screen, enter the amount. Here in this screen, you will find a tab named area values. Click that tab and change the values Area 01 & 02 to $0.01 and leave the Area 15 as it is. Enter the appropriate dr line item and save the document.
3.Go to AW01N and see tha values against each of the areas.
please revert in case you have any questions.

Awaiting for solution

Worklist for Mass Retirement of Assets

Hello,
My company is in the design development phase of implementing SAP, and I am trying to do a mass retirement of assets by a worklist in our Sandbox.
I have been able to generate the Worklist, but when I go in to transaction AR31 to release the worklist I receive a message that says "No Administrator Found for the Task"
Can anyone tell me what this means, and how I can fix it??
Thank you in advance for any help!!
Amy

For mass retirements, there are the standard workflow scenarios: Retirement with revenue and Retirement without revenue (scrapping). When you create a worklist, you have to make entries needed for posting the mass retirement (such as the posting date).
You are still required to assign the standard tasks listed below to the Asset Accounting organizational unit that you defined, or to a position/job belonging to it, or to an SAP user:
· Correct worklist
· Release worklist

Mass change of Asset Master data

Hi!
Is there any transaction code for mass change of asset master data. I need to change Depreciaiton start date for all assets?
regs,
Ramesh

Use OA02 - Mass change, create a substitution. Add in all prerequisites and save it.
Go to AR01, execute it for the list of assets to be changed and create a worklist for the same.
Execute the worklist in AR31 and refresh it till all changes are completed.

Mass transfering of assets into another depreciation book

Hi All
Please clarify my below query.
when an asset was initially capitalized in the wrong asset class. Asset master in the correct asset class should first be created and thereafter the values will be transferred via the transfer within company code function in the Fixed Assets module.
For example, 10 units of laptop were initially capitalized in one asset master with IT cost centre. If 5 units of the laptop need to be transferred to Finance cost centre, a new asset master in the same asset class will be created and partial transfer will be carried out for 5 units to the new asset master.
1. is it possible to mass transfering of assets into another depreciation book if yes.
please provide me the necessary steps to do the above activities.
Thanks & Regards
K.Gunasekar.

Hi,
It seems like you have an asset, with 10 Qty in an asset master.
Try to do asset partial transfer with ABUMN for 5 qty.
Hope this might help you.

Is there any way to do a mass delete if Assets do not have any value.
I tried the option of Worklist but it seems it does not have the delete option...
Kindly help..........
Best Regards,

Hi,
Through ABAP it is possible.
you can use this FM to delete the fixed asset.
ASSET_MASTERRECORD_MAINTENANCE
while calling the FM you need to send the parameter
i_trtyp = 'L'. "deletion flag
along with other parameters.

Issue on Ordinary Depreciation Start Date and Disposal of Asset

Hi All.
I am facing the following the issues.
Fiscal Year is from July - June
First Problem: Company acquired the asset Vehicle on 26.Dec.2008. System proposes Ordinary Depreciation Start Date as 01.Jan.2009 rather then proposing Ordinary Depreciation Start Date as 01.Dec.2008.
Since depreciation for previous year has been posted the client later found out that instead of calculating depreciation for 7 months depreciation was only calculated for 6 months. I tried to manually change the dep. start date but the system doesnot update the previous years values, it's still calculating depreciation for 6 months and not 7 months. Is there anyway in updating the previous fiscal years depreciation values.
2nd Problem: I created a test case scenario today i.e. 16.09.2009 by creating and capitalizing an asset vehicle. Once I capitalized the asset the system automatically proposed the start date as 01.10.2009 and not 01.09.2009 which is what i require. What setting do i need to check or maintain in order to solve this issue because the user does not want to manually change the date each time an asset is created.
3rd Problem: Similar to this now when client disposes of an asset suppose on 10.Feb.2009 (FY2009). The system calculates depreciation till the month in which disposal takes place (February), the client does not want this, their requirement is that depreciation should be calculated one month before disposal takes place i.e. in this case Dep should be calculated till Month of January.
Your assistance will be highly appreciated.
Mohammed Ali Khan.

Hello Khan,
The depreciation start date will get determined based on the period control method assigned to depreciation key,
Period control methods are defined in transaction code : OAVH
In period control method we will mention the depreciation start date for acquisition, additions and also depreciation end date for disposals, retirements.
SAP has given some default period control keys. If any of these are not suitable to your requirement you can create on your own period control methods.

Does anyone had done mass adjustment on Asset Cost to the Asset's NBV?

Hi,
I want to see if any one had done Asset Cost Revaluation due to acquisition; to Compliance with GAAP accounting rules related to the acquisition of our company. We want to adjust all our Asset Cost to their current NBV and adjust the current Accumulated Depreciation to $0. Then Assets will be depreciated begining on the acquisition date of the company using the existing depreciation useful lives, not the remaining useful life. All the other depreciation conventions and methods will not be changed.
I can't use the AM Mass Revaluation process as it can only adjust cost by amount or percent. We don't want to do an IUT to the same BU with action of ADD as we don't want to generate any new asset id. Any advice or suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ali

Doug,
I had already started along that path, by removing the Microsoft mouse driver (which didn't fix the problem). However, starting the system in safe mode was a good baseline, as it went to sleep as it should - confirming a software-related issue.
I figured it would actually be easiest to shoot this bug by starting from scratch with an erase and install. After each tweak (ie, turn firewall on), software add (ie, clamXav), or update to the system, I tested it's sleep ability. And I found the bug/issue.....checking 'enable firewall logging' under the advanced options on the firewall tab, in the sharing preferences pane. No kidding. Stealth mode and UDP can be checked, just not firewall logging. Dunno why, however, the world is now at peace, able to sleep as needed.

Mass transfer for asset categories

Hi,
We are implementing FA (on 11i release) in an organization. This organization is divided on 20 cost centers.
The requirement is that each cost center have its own balance sheet.
Related to FA, I need Asset cost account and Asset expense account to be detailed also on CC level. There are 4 types of assets (which are registered in 4 different natural accounts)
I have implemented by:
Create one book for all the organization.
Create one category for each type of asset and each CC (in total 80 categories).
So the registration of "asset cost" account on asset categories window looks:
Assets belonging for the first cost center:
01-CC1-1111-00
01-CC1-2222-00
01-CC1-3333-00
01-CC1-4444-00
Assets belonging to the 2nd CC:
01-CC2-1111-00
01-CC2-2222-00
01-CC2-3333-00
01-CC2-4444-00
and so on.
All categories are linked to the same book.
When I transfer a big number of assets from one CC into another, mass transfer program allows only transfer between expense accounts, location and employee name. It does not allow transfer from one category into another.
Please advice how mass transfer from one category into another can be implemented.
Thank you.

Hi
You need to perform mass reclassifications for the same which is done at the book level.
In the Asset to reclass section you will populate the details of the asset numbers and the existing category information
In the Reclass section provide the details of the future category information.
Thereafter click on the preview button to preview the selection of assets found eligible for reclassification based on the input criteria entered, once you are satisfied with the output, run the mass reclassification program to bring the category transfer in effect.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

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!

Periodic Mass Copy Oracle Assets

Hi guys,
Hopefully an easy one for you: we have a situation where Depreciation has been run in one of our Tax Books and the period closed, before the Periodic Mass Copy for that period was performed.
Now Periodic Mass Copy doesn't pick up the month that the book is on, only the period prior to it, and hence will not run.
Is there a way to reopen the period in this book. Not looking to re-open GL, just to be able to run Periodic Mass Copy.
Cheers

Hi
You might want to post your question in Assets forum. This is Oracle Projects forum, where people may not be knowledgeable on your issue.

Mass intra company asset transfer

Hi,
We have a requirement in which we have decided to create 3 new asset classes. Now we have to move multiple number of assets (hundreds) from other asset classes to these new classes. So is there a way in which we can re-class assets (change their asset class)? The only way I know to change an asset class is to do a intracompany transfer. The issue with this is that the assets in this company are externally numbered and they want the number to remain the same after transfer. How can I achieve this?
Thanks in advance.
