[Detailed Information on Changing the Fiscal Year in FI-AA|Detailed Information on Changing the Fiscal Year in FI-AA]
A full list of FI-AA related blogs has been kept in the [Wiki|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/wiki?path=/display/erpfi/asset+accounting].

Dear Mark,
Where do you define this previous fiscal year??
No, we are not expected to run depreciation in 2007. The first depreciation run will happen in Jan-08
Additional information, when I am trying to close period via AJAB, the error says "The fiscal year 2007 is already closed for company code 1417. It is not necessary to perform a year-end closing". Surprisingly, it still showing 2007 as a current year.
Please help

The error showing as Fiscal year change has not carried out for the coCd

Hi all,
I am facing a very critical situation. My client has the last closed fiscal year as 2006(from 2006 april to 2007 march).For the fiscal yr. 2007(2007april to 2008 march) they have already finalised and submitted the reports made from some parallel software.They now want to tally this report with SAP system and to adjust the SAP system entries as per this report.This work was running fine.But on 01.04.2009 none of the asset reports are running.The error it's throwing is as-
Fiscal year change not yet made for company code PWAL
Message no. AB059
Diagnosis
You have not yet carried out a fiscal year change for company code PWAL, although the current system date is in the new fiscal year.
Procedure
Carry out the fiscal year change for company code PWAL.
Proceed
The error is quite understandable.We have to close 2007 and then perform the fiscal year change.But the problem is that the adjustment for the year 2007 is not yet complete.Is it the only solution with me that I should close the yr.2007 and again open it after the fiscal yr. change? If that is done can I take care of the adjustment in the posted depreciation? Or is it possible that the system date can be made back to 31.03.2009(very stupid ask!). The real problem is that my client has mistakely created some assets in the year 2007(by AS91 after changing the take over date) those should have been shown in the next year and also some assets are creted in the year 2008 by the same strange method those should be shown in the year 2007.What I am doing now is deleting these legacy assets and creating the new assets in the correct year.And this process is not yet complete.If I close the year 2007, then the depreciation of these legacy assets will also be posted.Later how can I reverse the effect?Also without seeing the reports I can't make the adjustments.Please suggest/advice.

Hi Debabrata,
You have to do all fiscal year closing steps for 2007. When you reopen it you can do a repeat run for 2007. (You can do the reapeat run only for the new/ changed assets.)
Try first to test this in an actual test system (document it and do the same in production). Perhaps as you know when 2009 is open I want to close 2008 in one week. All changes they make in the asset system (change depreciation keys, recalulating,...) can result in postings in 2007 / 2008 what they don't want and later fiscal year problems. You will found a lot off masages about this on the form.

Fiscal year change not yet made for company code

1. We have opened new company and enter data from FY 2009. All posting has happened properly, but when we are trying to see report S_ALR_87011963 we are facing following problem.
We have already check everything on SDN and followed, but our problem still exists.
Table T093C is showing as FY 2009 year and also same in OB52, OAAQ is showing 2008 as closed year. We have run AJRW for 2009 and it runs successfully.
error -
Fiscal year change not yet made for company code ABCD
Message no. AB059
Diagnosis
You have not yet carried out a fiscal year change for company code ABCD, although the current system date is in the new fiscal year.
Procedure
Carry out the fiscal year change for company code ABCD.
2. We are running AFAB in any mode we get following error.
Only an unplanned posting run is possible in this fiscal year.
Message no. AA693
Diagnosis
You have already posted in fiscal years that come after 2009. This means that you can only post in the last posting period 012 in fiscal year 2009. Or you can post to a special period, if one is set up. Since you have not posted yet in this fiscal year, you must specify that the depreciation posting run is unplanned.
Procedure
Please check the fiscal year entered. If you are certain you want to post to fiscal year 012, you must start the depreciation posting run in the last posting period (or in the special period). Be sure to indicate that this posting run is unplanned, since it falls outside of the normal posting cycle.

Hi Experts,
I am not making a new post regarding this but I hope you can help me answer.
I am experiencing the same issue as the one posted originally and here are my data.
1. Running the same asset report
2. System is currently in FY 2013
3. OAAQ shows FY 2012
4. SE16N > T03C shows FY2013
I have tried running AJRW again but I am getting the same error in the asset report. I hope someone out there can help.
Thanks,
Josef

Error on fiscal year change

Hello Experts,
I have done fiscal year change (AJRW) for fixed asset on 1st april 2015, I have not done the asset year end closing, as we still have many more entries to come for the year 2014-15. When the fiscal year change has been done, there is no error and it went smooth. But not when I try to post the entry with transaction "ABGL" or "ABGF" I am gettin error that "You cannot post to asset in fiscal year 2014", "Fiscal year chage has not yet been performed"
But the fact is I have completed the fiscal year change for the assets successfully. Just to confirm, the "OAAQ" will change the fiscal year after after running "AJAB" correct?
Please advise...
Regards
Shailesh

Hi,
According to me for Asset Accounting, 2 fiscal years can be kept open at same time, Now in your case, I understood that FY 2015 you have opened through AJRW but you have not closed the FY 2014. Can you kindly check that in T-Code OAAQ which Fiscal Yeart system is showing and also in Table T093C enter your company code and in that which Fiscal Year system is showing. As in OAAQ we can get information for last closed FY which should be 2013 and in T093C Table we get the FY which is the latest opened FY which should be 2015 in present case.

Malhar.

Fiscal year change not yet made

Hi all,
Our fiscal year runs Dec 1 to Nov 30th. The Asset Module uses the same FY as FI. The user is trying to run some reports like s_alr_87011964 and is getting the error "Fiscal year change not yet made for co code XXX".
The fiscal year change and close operations etc have NOT been carried out, but I dont understand why we can not run this report retroactive?
Please help as this is a critical step in the year close.
Thanks,
Padmaja

Thanks a lot for the very prompt response! My problem is a little more deep:
The current FY is Dec 1 to Nov 30th. But for 2006, management would like to change that to end on Dec 31st. From next year, they want to go with a calendar year. I have not thought out the solution completely, but it looks like I have to make the month of December a shortened fiscal year in 2006. This way 2006 is actually in 2 parts - Dec 1 '05 to Nov 30 '06 and Dec 1'06 to Dec 31 '06.
I have not done any config to set this up yet. I am thinking if I change the fiscal year using AJRW, then can I still set up the 2006 shortened FY and use it?
In fact to answer your question on whether I am running any transactions relevant to the new FY, I dont think that I am. All I am doing is trying to run a report with a report date of 11-30-2006.
Your feedback is very much appreciated and will be rewarded.
Thanks,
Padmaja

Fiscal year change in AA

Dear All,
We wanted to run the asset history list report (AR01) as of 31.03.2007. The system is giving an error message saying that "Fiscal Year Change is not done". Please confirm if we can take this report without doing Fiscal year change or is there any alternate report which we can take for asset history list. Also please confirm whether we will be able to make any postings for 2007 fiscal year like depreciation run and auc capitalisation once we change the Fiscal year to 2008. Do we need to do the fiscal year change only after all the entries pertaining to assets are passed? What is the exact implication of doing Fiscal year change?
Regards
Suresh

Hi,
Doing FY Change via AJRW doesnot harm. What matters (capitalisation, depreciation run etc.,) is AJAB - Year End Close. AJRW for FY 2008 can be carried out to view the reports.
When was the last AJAB and AJRW done for CCode in question? Check using OAAQ/OAAR.

Defining the Fiscal Year Variant

Would someone explain the procedure for setting up the Fiscal year variant in the current version please.
The version I had used was 3.1h and the screens are now different. In 3.1h one simply copied the fiscal year variant (T.code OB29) using the copy command and one got a copy fiscal year dialog box in which one entered the data into the four fields. But none of this now happens.
In both the current version and the old version (3.1h) I select in column FV "V3" ( the Fiscal year variant I want ) copy V3 and now I want to create a new Fiscal Variant with my own company two letter designation (e.g. YZ) taking the V3 copy as the model to use. But I can't because nothing then happens.
In v3.1h a small sub window appeared when doing the copy ("copy icon") and in the first line was the copied designation code V3 with the description in the 2nd line and in the 3rd line one enterd one's own two letter company designation (e.g. YZ) plus the discription on line 4, click the tick and it was done.
How do I do that part now? Because this sub screen does not now appear when trying to do a copy and create a copy designation.

Hi Ton,
In transaction code OB29 for the later versions of SAP (i.e. 4+), you don't get a pop-up window. The system just copy the selected Fiscal Year Variant. That is the only one you would see once you have highlighted the year variant you want to copy from and you hit the "Copy" icon. All the fields you need to change would still be open. In the FV column, just change it from V3 to your new one YZ. Do the same for the description and the rest of the field you need to change and hit "Enter" on your keyboard. A diaglog box "Specify object to be copied" would appear. You can then "Copy All" or "only Copy Entry" depending on your need. If you select "Copy All", you would get a dialog box informing you of the number of dependent entries copied. You can then save your entries and carry out the rest of the set-up for "Periods", "Period Texts" and "Shortened Fiscal Years" as required by you.
I hope the above helps.
Do not forget to award the points please.

Jacob

Web Report not printing the fiscal year period variable value

Hi,
In web report where in one text element, we enabled the fiscal year period variable value to display
in the report result.
If we run the report then this fiscal year period is displaying in the general information.
We have print button (Java Code), where user can take a printout of the same report.
In the printout this Fiscal year period is NOT PRINTING, other variables like rollup time, technical name of report etc are printing perfectly.
It is required to print the fiscal period also in the print out of the report.
Any help to come out of this.....
Thanks

Please help ! Can I cut-off New G/L migration date during fiscal year ?

Dear Experts
I know that the principles of migration date of New G/L migration should be on first day of fiscal year and Year-end closing of the old fiscal year must be complete before New General Ledger Accounting is activated.
However, if I need, can I cut-off new G/L migration date during fiscal year before year-end closing ? And Which points should be concern.
Best regards,
Suphawat

Hi,
First you should have installed the cockpit., you should have completed the testing and migrated the transports before the end of the Fiscal year which is 31st March in your case. Depending on the scenario, this will take 20 - 40 days.
You can begin the migration once your year end activity is performed.
If you have not installed the cockpit and completed the configuration and tested it.. forget it for this year, do it next year.
Hope this is clear now.

How to change the fiscal year in the controlling area?

I want to change the fiscal year mentioned in the controlling area. The problem is that the controlling area is assigned to a company code and number ranges have been defined and cost center hierarchy has been created.
Please suggest me what to do?
Thanks in advance

Hi
If its a Productive system - You cant change the FY.. You need to take SAP SLO Service.. Its a chargeble one
If its a Test system and data is posted, then you need to delete the data 1st of all... I advise create a new contr area / comp code
"Activate components & Control Indicators" - Just COPY 2011 and make it 1900 or any year of your choice
