Plant & business area validation in asset creation

Dear All,
Am working in a plant & business area validation which will fire the error msg when wrong plant is assigned at time of asset creation. Issue is for a company we have 19 business area and each business area assigned to various plant. In order to avoid the individual step for each business area, have merged two or more business area in pre-requiste section and correspondingly plant had been validated in check section. But when am inserting two check conditions, its not even working as per the logic, For ex :
Pre-Requiste :
( ANLA-BUKRS = '1300' AND ANLZ-GSBER = '1101' ) AND (
ANLA-BUKRS = '1300' AND ANLZ-GSBER = '1102' )
Check :
( ANLZ-WERKS = '1307' OR ANLZ-WERKS = '1308' OR ANLZ-WERKS = '1309' OR ANLZ-WERKS = '1304' ) AND
( ANLZ-WERKS = '1305' OR ANLZ-WERKS = '1306' ANLZ-WERKS = '1344' )
For the above condition system not validating as per business area since if we entering business area 1101 and entering the plant which related to 1102 business area, system not throwing the error msg where as if we put a single condition in a step its working fine.
Kindly suggest me how to overcome this by avoiding individual step creation for each business area.

Hi,
I have chnaged my validation in the following way as follows,
Pre-requiste :
Co code=XXXX
Check:
Business area = XXXX AND Plant = XXXX.
This condition is working fne for one business area, where as if i include more than one business area in the check section system not validating the condition, in a step its validating only one condition. Since 21 business area available for a co code its not feasible to create individual step.
Kindly suggest me is there any other alternative way to overcome this.

So we need to write a validation, could you please help me how to do validate both, so that if the user enter 1100 plant with 1200 BA he should get a warning message.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Syed,
The Validation can be applied both at the wbs & project level....
1. For Project Or wbs:
SPRO VIEW: Project systems --structures - operative structures- WBS-- maintain validation
click on the project or wbs as required.
Create a new validation & name it. create a step inside the rule... by clicking validation & step buttons available.
Now give the prerequisites You can give project profile , type & BA as prerequisities for your requirement by selecting the same from the table fields on the right of the screen
next for check --- select the plant field and give the value..as required for the BA.
for msg --- you have to create a msg type and maintain the number...here and save your validation.
For three BA you can have three steps maintained in the validation...
Assign this validation to your required project profile and tick the Auto validation button available in the profile.
Hope this helps you.

Business area default in asset master record

Dear all
Here is one ticket pertains to asset
when i create asset master record business area will be defaulted
the problem is when i upload asset master record through LSMW
by different business area the system throws a error message BUSINESS AREA EXISTS WHICH CANT BE REPLACED THROUGH LSMW
This is happening for all the asset classes
so i want to remove that default business area from where should i remove that which t-code or menu path
regards ravindra kumar

Dear ravinagh
removing of business area in asset master record is always possible but
see when u r uploading bulk asset master records through LSMW we cant replace the business area as it is already defaulted in asset master record
means some where we have assigned the default values to the asset classes or some other master record
so we have to find out the source of the defualt business area for asset master record
when we remove this from the asset classes then the business area will not be defaulted so that we can upload assets from LSMW with different business area
so please try to find out the source....................

Business area validation

how would i setup a validation that would work for both company code and profit center to validate with the business area.
it works seperately, but does not work when both are triggered.
Any clarifications will be appreciated.

Hi Krishna,
As the other persons have said, you can use the OB28 to create validation at three levels.
If you have access to SAP notes, the note 842318 might be interesting for you.
This note is an FAQ about the validation/substitution area, so issues which could occur while you create a validation might be described there.
Also it is helpful if you like to use a user-exit (GCX2).
I hope I could help a bit further.
Best regards,
Christoph

Business Area Validation or Substitution

Hi,
We would like to validate or substitute Business area field.
Can anybody tell us about this.
Regards,
Priti

For vendor / customer postings you have to create reconiliation account wise dummy sub ledgers.
E.g. 1.You have 3 recon. a/c's for customers then you cretae 3 dummy customer codes.
       2. Post a consolidated entry using this dummy accounts(one line item with B.A and the second
           line ietm without B.A)
       3. So at any point of time these subledgers should have zero balance.
       4. Please block these sub-ledgers once your postings have been finished.

Chaning business area in asset master in AS02

Dear SAP GURUS,
We have an asset created in the system and we assigned a business area to that asset.
We have carried the depreciation run for the asset.
Now we want to change the busiess area of that asset to a different business area.
The system is not allowing to change the business area when we tried to that in "AS02".
Can somebody please help me in guiding about the following issues:-
1) Can the business area be changed once assigned and postings has beeen carried out with the same business area?
2) If yes, then please help how?
3) Will the business area change will be effective from the current date or it will affect the previous records too?
In spro we have one settings which is Time-Independent Management of Organize.if i will use what is disadvantage and advantage.
Thanks alot
Sai

Dear Sai,
In relation specifically to changing the Business area I have reviewed the documentation and it is not possible to change the Business area via As02 once created.
Please could you review the document below which explains the situation clearly .
Changing Organizational Units Relevant to the Balance Sheet
There are two ways of changing the asset#s assignment to organizational units that are relevant to the balance sheet (that is, changing assignment to a business area, or changing the cost center, which in turn affects the profit center).
The first method: changing the assignment using the master data transaction However, you can only use this method if the Business area and Cost center master data fields are not managed as time-dependent. You can set the business area and cost to time-independent in Customizing for Asset Accounting. Choose Master Data. When you change one of these organizational units in the asset master record, the system automatically creates a transfer document with the
acquisition and the retirement, as well as a master data change document. The system uses the system date as the standard default posting date for the automatically created document. However, you can also change this posting date using a substitution (refer to Validation and Substitution).
It is not possible to change only one particular time interval. Changes that take effect on a specific date are also not possible. For both of these reasons, the system is not able to create a history for the assignment to a cost center/profit center. After a change is made, the system displays the new business area or cost center/profit center in all subsequent reports (even if the report is for a time period prior to the change).
The other option is to change the assignment of business area or cost center/profit center by posting an asset transfer to a new master record , rather than making the change in the asset master data. You have to use this method if the Business area and Cost center master data fields are managed as time-dependent. When you use this method, the system displays the business area or cost center that is valid for the given time period in all reports.
No matter which of these methods you use, the system ensures continuity in your business area balance sheets and profit center balance sheets.

Bernhard

Account assignment not possible (Asset not assigned to a business area)

HI

I have correctly created asset master and assigned Business area and Cost centre.

Bhanu Prakash

Hello
Assets are assigned to a single business area in their master record. Every posting to an asset balance sheet account is automatically posted to that business area. The business area for an asset is passed on to all line items connected with the asset. Therefore you do not need to make a manual account assignment for a business area at any point.

Asset transfer from One Business Area to another Business Area

Hello,
I am going to transfer my Asset from One Business area to another business area. So, I allready created a new asset and transfer through TCODE-ABUMN. But system gives me this error
Posting with trans.type 320 not possible (No acquisition posted)
Message no. AA324
Diagnosis
Transaction type 320 belongs to a transaction type group, which can only be used to post to assets to which posting has already been performed. However, no postings have been made to this asset.
Procedure
Use a transaction type from a transaction type group, which can be used for the first acquisition to an asset.
can any one please tell me how I transfer my Asset from one business area to another Business area?

Hi
First make sure in your company code global setting in the OBY6 for company code wise ..Iin this screen Indicator: Business area financial statements required if it is ticket
Please don't change business area for old asset . because it will effect the Business area balance sheet. So create new asset and change business area at cost center level
Finally transfer the balance from old asset to new assets in the ABUMN
OR
IF you want solution as per your issue ..Go to SPRO-> Financial Accounting-> Asset Accounting->Transactions-> Specify Default Transaction Types
Here enter Default Transaction Types 300 Transfer of retir. old assets data from cap.asset
in the filed of Transfer Between Areas
I hope it will helps you
Thanks and Regards
