Oracle Fixed Assets using Oracle GL

Hello Colleagues,  We have a project that we are busy with, moving from another Fixed Assets program to Oracle Fixed Assets.  We also have a GL program that we use.  My question is, why do I need Oracle GL for Oracle Fixed Assets if I am going to post from Oracle FA to my other GL program?
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Hi,
it is purely becoz of the design of the Oracle ERP, there is interdependacy on every Module ....
GL is the foremost module that needs to be implemented for configuring any of the subledger applications ......To Implement fixed assets, one needs to have the Chart of Accounts details which can be obtained by creating a Ledger in the General Ledger Module.... Once done, Fixed Asset module can be configured, transactions can be recorded and accounting of transactions could be done in assets module ..... Transfer can be done by your external GL program by performing a customization ......
Regards,
Ivruksha

    Please help, what can be the problem?

    Hi
    It seems that one of the patch has not been applied properly.
    You get this error from the package FA_MASSADD_PKG, so you could put some debug to see where you get it exactly or check the patches where patch includes file FAMAPTB.pls.

    Hi All,
    I am working on the following Metalink documents:

    I am bit confused, if I am doing Cloning with OAM and providing all the information about the target system how does it work?
    Is it that, cloning with OAM will make the required templates and I will have to just take the backup of my database and application and have to restore it on target machine and cloning is done!
    Please suggest,

  • Unale to print pdf files in oracle application server using oracle forms

    Hi
    We are using oracle developer suite 10g(10.1.2.3.0) in Windows vista. (test environment)
    Oracle application server 10g(10.1.2.3.0) in Hp-UX 11iv3 (production environment)
    We are able to print pdf files in test environment from oracle forms using the below command:
    host('/usr/bin/lp -d p9775hplaser '||'/ashome/output/'||:print_file);
    But while declaring to the live environment it is not working
    host('cat '||:pdf_print_file||' | acroread -toPostScript | /usr/bin/lp -dp9775hplaser');
    but when the above command is put in hp-ux cmd prompt it is workinh"'cat '||:pdf_print_file||' | acroread -toPostScript | /usr/bin/lp -dp9775hplaser'";
    Kind ly tell me whether the problem i with the host command and some other command is available for printing files from forms.

    Here is my guess:
    declare
    AppID PLS_INTEGER;
    begin
    AppID := DDE.App_Begin('acroread -toPostScript '||file name,DDE.APP_MODE_MINIMIZED);
    end;

  • How to uninstall oracle components silents using oracle universal installer in oracle client 11.2.0.3.0?

    Hi,
    I have installed oracle client 11.2.0.3.0 silently using the response file with INSTALL type as runtime. I want to remove  'Oracle sql developer' from the installed products. Using Oracle Universal Installer I am able to remove this component in GUI. Please provide me the silent switch to remove this component. I have tried with DEINSTALL_LIST property , but I am getting an error that 'no products selected for deinstall'. Please suggest on this.

    Pl post your OS details
    AFAIK, SQL Developer is not included in the Oracle Client install - it is a separate install. You will have to follow the instructions for uninstalling SQL Developer - check the docs for your specific version of SQLD - Oracle SQL Developer
    e.g. for 3.1, see Installing Oracle SQL Developer

  • Changing Fixed Assets useful life according IAS rules

    Hi all,
    According to the new IAS rules (International Accounting Standards) when an asset's useful life (currently with straight line depreciation) is changed we have to distribute the "net book value" (remaining depreciation to be posted) between all the remaining months in the same proportion.
    Currently, SAP standard calculates the depreciation as the difference between the posted depreciation throughout the previous months and the amount that should have been depreciated with the new useful life, and it assigns this calculated amount in the current month when the useful life is changed.
    We have checked that the remaining depreciation to be posted can be distributed equally over the remaining periods of the fiscal year by marking the "smoothing" flag through transaction OAYR per company code, but we need this amount to be distributed over all the remaining periods for the new useful life (not only over the current fiscal year).
    Please find below an example to try to clarify my query:
    A fixed asset with str.line depreciation has the following values:
    Acquisition value: 12000 eur
    Useful life: 3 years
    Depreciation per year: 4000 eur.
    The asset starts to depreciate on 01.01.2008 and its useful life is
    changed to 2 years on 01.07.2008. On that moment the net book value is
    10000 eur.
    SAP adjusts the difference between the amount that should have been
    depreciated with the new useful life (3.000 eur) and the real amount
    posted (2.000 eur) = 1.000 eur depending on the "smoothing" flag:
    1. If the flag is not marked: SAP assigns 1.500 eur (500 eur (6.000/12)
    + 1.000 eur from the difference) on 01.07.2008
    2. If the flag is marked: SAP distributes the difference between the
    remaining periods of the current year (from July to December) and it
    assigns 666,66 eur per month (500 eur + 166,66, obtained from 1.000
    eur/6 months).
    But we need the same depreciation amount distributed over the remaining
    months: 10.000 eur/18 months = 555,55 eur/month.
    Has anyone come through the same problem before?
    The only solution I can think of is transferring the asset values to a new one. Or maybe a user exit.
    Any feedback will be much appreciated.
    Thank you very much in advance. Best regards

    Hi Markus,
    Sorry to come back to you regarding this question. Unfortunately we are not still on 6.0 so we can't take advantage of the new functionality.
    I am now trying to make an asset transfer through transaction ABUMN but the new asset is taking into account the capitalisation value of the original asset rather than the net book value that we would need the system to consider to calculate the new depreciation values.
    Do you know if there is a way to solve this?
    Thanks a lot. Best regards

  • FIXED ASSETS - USEFUL LIFE

    Hi,
    I´m modifying the useful life of some fixed assets and don´t have problems since it makes the amortization assessed since they are and it me re-calculates those who even remain.
    The problem is that they request that, in first foreseen, amortization does not load the difference that exists between the aortas  and that correspondent with the new useful life. There is way of doing that it first amortization goes out without the adjustment?
    Thanks in advance.-

  • Oracle Fixed Assets API for updating depreciation flag after conversion

    Hi frnds,
    Do we have any API's or update program to update the depreciation flag after asset conversion. We are converting all the legacy assets from 11.0.3 to r12 with a depreciation default flag of 'N' since depreciation is already calculated in 11.0.3 and we don't want to calculate any depreciation when we run our year end depreciation in R12. But anyhow at a later point we need to update the depreciation flag to the original value that of 11.0.3 in r12, so can you please help me if there is any API or standard program to update the depreciation flag.
    Thanks,

  • Connect to an Oracle database by using oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver: error

    Hi,
    I'm trying to connect to an Oracle database so we can retrieve notes of tables, views and packages.
    By using the API of Data Modeler (transformation script) we want to add these notes to corresponding objects in Data Modeler.
    I'm starting with this:
    importPackage(java.lang);
    importPackage(java.awt);
    importPackage(java.sql); 
    java.lang.Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver");
    An error occurs when I run this code:
    It has to be a Java thing...
    Anyone a suggestion?

    Problem solved! One of my colleagues referred to this post: Import user defined properties from Oracle Designer
    More in detail: it's about this couple of lines:
    // Copy the ojdbc6.jar file to ..\datamodeler-home\jlib directory 
    // Add this line to datamodeler.conf 
    //      AddJavaLibFile  ../../jlib/ojdbc6.jar 
    I changed my datamodeler.conf file, restarted DM and now there's no longer an error when I am trying to use the Oracle JDBC drive.
