Number of similar asset - AS01

Hi
When we create asset master, we enter some number for example 2 or 3.. in the number of similar asset field. The system create asset numbers but there is an opportunity to change only the following fields for each asset
- asset description
- invetory number
- cost center.
we need to include some other fields apart from the above. Where can I configure this?
Thanks
Ashok

Did you check screen layout rules of Asset Master at
SPRO-Financial Accounting-Asset Accounting-Master Data-Screen Layout-Define Screen Layout for Asset Master Data
and

Creation of Multiple Similar Assets

Hi experts,
I need to ask if following is the best that can be done for splitting few assets of one class to another class or is a better solution exists for it Or is there any transaction/report that can create Multiple Similar Assets?
Currently, we have one asset class in which assets of two categories are created. We now need to split them to individual classes. For that we researched on how to transfer one category of multiple assets within a Company Code and found that there is a possibility of tranferring multiple assets through txn ABUMN.
The problem arises that we can only transfer asset to existing ones when the case is 'Multiple Assets Transfer', while we can create new Asset when the case is 'Single Asset Transfer'. WorkAround that we found is to first create Similar Assets in new Asset Class, record it and do it through LSMW for creation of assets in bulk.
Hope if anyone went through such situation and like to share his experience
Thanks for reading

Hi
I did not have such experience earlier but sure your workaround is perfect. Goahead. Transaction code ABUMN is mainly for such transfers and/or asset class adjustments

What is critical number for an Asset

Hi,
Iam new to Asset accounting. During settlement to an asset the system says Critical number reached for Asset XXX.
Why does asset have critical number and what should we do to correct this error..
Thank you

I assume that you use the SAP Standard.
There are 2 possibilities problem.
First because the document number for asset transaction is almost reach the critical number.
If this the problem,try to check as follow :
1. Check in t-code : OBA7.
2. Double click on Type="AA".
3. Check the "Number Range".
(Let Say the "Number Range"=21)
4. Go to t-code :FBN1.
5. Edit the "interval", then check column "no"=21, "year" = your current fiscal year. If the "current number" almost reach the "To number" then try to increase "To Number". Normally I used 10 digits for the number.
Second,
The asset number ranges for asset master is almost reach the critical number,
Try to check as follow :
1. Check in t-code : OAOA.
2. Double click on your asset class.
3. Check the "number range"
4. Go to t-code : AS08
5. Check the interval number and increase "to number" if it is necessary.
Hope it helps.

Not able to created Number Ranges for Asset Classes in AS08

Dear Friends,
I am not able create Number Ranges for Asset Classes in AS08.
It is giving me an error message as company code does not exist.
When I Check Consistency under path SPRO -> Financial Accounting -> Asset Accounting -> Preparing for Production Startup -> Check Consistency -> Overview Report: Company Codes. I am getting the following
RSOL Reliance Sealink One PLtd
CoCode no. alloc.    NKTR
Fiscal Year Variant V3   Apr.- March, 4 special periods
Start 2nd half month 00
Transfer date        31.03.2006
Chart of dep.        TOLL Chart of Depreciation - For Highway Projects

Current fiscal year 2007
Doc. type dep. pstng AF   Dep. postings
> Number range &1 in co.code &2 for doc.type &3 must be defined as internal
Calc.insur.value
Input tax exempt
If you see the above first two line you will find the difference is that Company code RSOL in the first line and NKTR company code in the second line.
Actually CoCode no. alloc. has been wrongly copied as NKTR while copying CoCode it should be RSOL and not NKTR.
I think because of this wrong allocation it is giving me an error in AS08. Also it is not showing me CoCode in drop down list in AS08.
Please help me to resolve the problem.
Thanks
Rahul Jain

Look in TC OAOB if the company code is assigned to a chart of depreciation

External number ranges in asset accounting

Hi All
Why we need to select external number range for asset accounting number ranges why not other sub modules?
useful answers will be rewarded with points
Regards
Prasad

hi hariprasad,
you only have to do that for depreciation posting. the reason for that is the way the program which posts the depreciation is designed. it creates a batch input with the opstings adding the doucment numbers as well and saving these document numbers into a table. when you want to post the depreciation for next month (period), first it will check if documents are already posted for previous period (or forgotten there in the batch input session). this is only valid before 4.7 (or 5.0?), from that release depreciation is also posted with internal numbered documents.
hope this helps

Asset number already exists in AS01

Hi all,
I am creating a new asset in AS01. The problem is that I am getting the error saying that the asset number already exists. Typically SAP continues on from the last old number, but now it is restarting from 30000. The number is being generated automatically.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this numbering issue? I have looked in config but have failed to find anything.
Thanks,

Hi.
Run Tcode AS08. Choose company code and click on status. Change the number range to match your current number range.
This issue may be becaue someone might have resetted the number range using the path given above.

How can I check who changed a room number for an Asset?

Hi people!
I'm working as BASIS and in december we make a restore from production to another environment to make some test.. a user tell me that in transaction AS03 for an specific Asset number and company code the number of the room are diferent. For example he tell me that if he go to production and check the same asset for the same company code that he check in the test environment the room are diferents.. I think that maybe someone change it because 'is a restore'... I think that is imposible that this is caused by the restore.
Someone knows how can I check in some transaction or table who change this room number?
Thanks a lot for your help!!

As stated by Eli, only where there is approval process involving workflow for any changes to the master, then it will be stored temporarily, till the approval process completes.
If there is no approval process in the system (no workflow), them it immediate updates the database.

Assignment of Asset Number to Group Asset

Hi All,
For our client they are using Group Asset for the calculation of Income Tax Depreciation (Depreciation Aea:15), actually he is having two types of Land 1. Free hold land and 2. normal Land. They created total 5 asset through(AS01) like 10000, 10001,10002,10003 and 10004. and a Group asset through (AS21) 110000 and assigned all these assets in one group asset but they want to create two Group assets 1. 10000 & 10001 2. 10002,10003 & 10004 as another Group asset for income tax depreciation purpose. Can somebody give me the suggetion how to create 2 group assets.
Regards,
R.K

Hi Raghavendran,
For the Group Asset they assigned the Depreciation Key:LINK(Straight line from acquisition value to Zero without Interest) for all the assets becuase of that it is calculating depreciation (i.e., Asset Value/No. of years) as we know for Free Hold Land Depreciation won't be calculated. For that we want to created another Group Asset with Depreciation Key: 0000(No depreciation and no interest), i want the procedure of how to create 2 group assets (1. with assets 10000 & 10001 and the other with assets 10002,10003 & 10004).
Regards,
R.K

Using the same Asset Master Record for similar assets

Dear all,
I would like to ask if it is possible to use the same asset master record for multiple assets which are similar. The assets will be posted in different periods / fiscal years and therefore the depreciation would change and be charged according to the useful life of the individual assets posted to the same master record and which in turn will vary according to periods / fiscal year posted.
For example, an asset master record is created for Vehicles. The 1st vehicle with a useful life of 4 years is depreciated at the start of the year for 4 years. The second vehicle is purchased on 6 months after on the 1st June using the same asset master record. However the depreciation is not worked out over the same useful life of the previous vehicle but is extended for a further 6 periods. Is this possible and how is it done.
Many thanks for any feedback and help.
Thanks
PRG

Dear Peter
What is the issue in case you created separate Asset Master for each Vehcile ? Is there any specific need for you to accommodate all the assets in one single asset master ?
I don't think it is correct method as per Company's Act. Over and above, how would you plan for the Fixed Assets Register in the given situation ?

Matching Machine Serial Number to a Asset Tag

Is there a way to take the machine Serial Number (From System Profiler possiblely) and match it to a file that has Serial Numbers and Asset Tags from a inventory database?
1. Define Serial Number through System Profiler
2. Scan File with Serial Numbers and Asset Tags which are tied together.
3. Once match is made the Asset Tag is known
3. Make the Asset Tag a environment variable.
G4 1.42 Mac OS X (10.3.5)

You don't define the format of the file that contains asset numbers and serial numbers (and I think the 'tie together' is making it sound harder than it is.
In any case:
1. Define Serial Number through System Profiler
system_profiler will tell you this. You can ask for the specific hardware information, then parse out the serial number, like:
/usr/sbin/system_profiler SPHardwareDataType | awk '/Serial/ { print $3}'
2. Scan File with Serial Numbers and Asset Tags which are tied together.
Without knowing this file format it's impossible to tell how to do this for sure, but if the file was a simple tab-delimited file of asset number<tab>serial number, then:
awk '/<serial_number>/ {print $1}' /path/to/asset_file
You can now string the two together, like:
#! /bin/sh
SERIAL=`/usr/sbin/system_profiler SPHardwareDataType | awk '/Serial/ { print $3 }'`
echo "Found serial number ${SERIAL}"
ASSETNO=`/usr/bin/awk "/${SERIAL}/ { print \\$1 }" /var/tmp/assets`
echo "Found asset number $ASSETNO"
export ASSETNO
Note the user of double-backslashes in the second awk to overcome shell expansion issues.
