Post revaluation to selected depreciation area of an asset

Hi,
We are using depreciation area '01' for posting to GL accounts and '02' for fiscal reporting. It turned out that couple of assets had wrong depreciation key specified for depreciation area '02', which resulted in wrong depreciation calculated for '02' in last 3 years.
We would like to correct it now, once we discovered this issue. One of the ideas was to create new revaluation transaction type which is active only for depreciation area '02', which will only change value of asset in that particuaral area without affecting correct '01',
However, after configuring new transaction type in AO84 and assigning it to '02' depreciation area in OAXJ, when I tried to run ABAW for this asset - it gave me error AA 380.
'Inconsistency between the specifications for transaction type Z11 and for the depreciation areas in chart of depreciation PTI.
Depreciation area 02 is defined (in Customizing), so that it is required to take over values from area 01. However, one of these ares cannot be posted to, due to the specifications in transaction type Z11. This combination is not allowed.'
Is it possible to configure postings only to one depreciaton area? If not - is there any other easy way of revaluating only one depreciation area for an asset.
Thank you,
Karol

Hi Blaz,
Thank you for your reply. I am trying to increase the value of the asset in depreciation area 02, because due to wrong depreciation key it got fully depreciated last year in 02. I want to add the value to 02 which should have not been depreciated in last 2 years. Is there a way to increase its value using ABAA?
Thank you,
Karol

Add depreciation area to old assets (revaluation area)

Hi guys,
I've created a new depreciation area for setting revaluation of assets. This new dep area only contains revaluation of assets (we'll only have revaluation and depreciation of this revaluation in this new area), so I've configured it to manage only revaluation values. Acquisition values are not allowed.
In OABC i've put "00" in the area where this new area takes values from, due to i don't want thhis new area to copy acquisitions values from area 01.
I've made the rest of the configuration also, to support revaluation transactions (mov 800) in this new area. But, I've got 2 problems now:
1. The new area i configured is missing when creating a new asset in AS01. However, when using AS91 the new area shows up. Any idea of why this happens that way?
2. I cannot add the new area in old assets. When using AFBN a message appears: "Depreciation area 20, which you want to create as a new depreciation area in chart of depreciation PVPE, has no depreciation area defined for value takeover. This may be be correct for normal operation, however for the purposes of creating a new depreciation in the productive system, you have to enter a depreciation area whose values are used as base values for the new area."
Message makes sense, because my new area is not copying values from any area (in tcode OABC i defined 00 as dep area source). The question is.. is there any additional tcode where i can add the new depreciation area to old assets?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
there are the following steps:
1. Create Depreciation area via OADB.
2. Activate Depreciation area via OAYZ.
3. Automatic opening of new depreciation are via AFBN and program RAFABNEW :
   3.1 - Indicator: Leave values initial = not ticked.
           The system will copy all the past years values from
           depreciation area 01.
3.2 - Indicator: Leave values initial = ticked.
           Set this indicator if you want to open the newly created
           depreciation area without any values i.e. blank.
4. Recalculate depreciation via AFAR and program RAAFAR00.
Following notes for information:

Populate Depreciation areas to the assets created with no depreciation area

Hi,
We created few Assets under a particular asset class. But only after creating we realised that there were no depreciation areas in it. So I added the depreciation areas to this asset class and then run
AFBN to populate the newly created depreciation areas to the existing assets.But it is not working. Could you please help me to populate these depreciation areas to those existing assets. Is it possible or not?
Please note, the depreciation area tab is completely blank. When I try AFBN for Depr area 01 (Derived Depr area), the system throws a message "Define depreciation area correctly".
I also tried AFBN with "Leave values initial" indicator checked. But still no results.
Do any one of you know how to populate the depr areas to those assets? The User have already created 45-50 assets. If there is no solution, then the last resort is to delete these assets.
Thanks & Regards,
Vinod

Hi Vinod,
AFBN is a simple tool, which copies entries from a source area to a target area. If you have no areas at all defined in the asset master record, there is no source to be copied.
I would propose to delete these assets with AS06 if possible and start over in this asset class. As I understand your description you can not have any posting to such assets up to now.
Regards,
Markus

Error when selecting depreciation area as real dep. area

When trying to create a new derived depreciation area and select it as real dep. area in order to be able to post values in FI-GL, I get an error and the system does not allow me to post. I´m working with version 4.6 and need to post values in GL from a derived area. Can anyone help me?

And is it possible to post in the derived area even though it is not real?
I´ve set the depreciation area as to post only depreciation but when try to assign accounts it does´nt let me
the error says:
There is a separate maint. transaction for
assgnmt in area 11
and then I click and I get the following answer:
Please maintain area 11 in FI-AA Customizing:
Under Investment Support if depreciation area 11 is an investment support area.
Under Reserves for Special Depreciation if area 11 manages special depreciation
But the derived area is not an Investment support nor a Reserves for Special Depreciation area.

Posting entry in one depreciation area

Hi
I am capitalizing one expense in company's act depreciation area (i.e. book depreciation area) and capitalizing it in another depreciation area (say IFRS depreciation area)
How to do this in SAP
Because i need to create asset master in one depreciation area and post acquisition and depreciation in one depreciation area.
How to handle it in SAP asset Accounting

Does it mean i need to create one transaction type and i need to limit it to one depreciation area YES
With the limtation from a new transaction type to that depreciation area you want to post to it is only posting in that depreciation area.
It is not relefant if there are other depreciation areas in the master data from your asset for the posting

Posting to only main depreciation area

Hi,
My clients need to post and asset adquisition to only main area (area 01) for the rest of the depreciation areas the asset APC value must remain 0. Problem is that adquisition is made though PS. During settlement (CJ88) every single area gets the same value. So How can I correct that afterwards ? For example using tx ABSO or something like that.
Thanks in advance,
Matias A.

hi,
you have to create a separate movement type and restrict it to area 01 only. You can do it in customizing.

Depreciation area set in Asset Class does not appear in asset master data

Depreciation area does not appear in the asset master data however it is set in the Asset class. If other asset is created in the same Asset class that depreciation area is automatically set in the asset master (it proofs that it is not a problem with Asset class).
I tried to set that deprecition area directly in the asset master data but all the fields are blocked for changing (is it possible to change that?).
What should I do as I need to post on that area ?
Thank you,
Jean

Ok Zaid! thanks,
But what treatment should I give to that asset? Because now it is not being evaluated in that area but we need to do it.
The asset was created in the prior exercise (year).

Jean

How to 'force in' the Depreciation Area for an Asset after it was created

Posting assets to some depreciation areas

Hello SAP Gurus,
I have a Chart of depreciation with :
01 Corporative area (principal ledger)
02 Local area (local ledger)
03 Revaluation of local area
07 Fiscal area
08 Revaluation of fiscal area
Question is, how can I post to local or fiscal area without posting to pricipal area 01 ?. Using FB01 with a movement class that doesn't post on area 01 throws the followin error :
&CAUSE&
You have entered a transaction type which only updates depreciation
areas, which are not automatically entered in the General Ledger.
Therefore, no document can be created for Financial Accounting. In the
transaction you have selected, however, you can only post business
transactions with documents.
&SYSTEM_RESPONSE&
&WHAT_TO_DO&
Via the menu bar 'Postings' and pull-down menu 'Miscellaneous', you can
post without a document. Alternatively you can enter a transaction type
which updates the depreciation area and has automatic entry to the
General Ledger.
How can I do that without destroying the local balance for the local ledger. I need to user the counterpart account..
Help in advance.

If I understood you correct, your depreciation area does not post values in general ledger. And you wish to post something to that depreciation area and to have contra account in GL? That is not possible; or your depreciation area posts to GL and you will be able to use transaction type that corresponds to this requirement, or your depreciation area is not posting to GL and you have to use ttype which is not updating GL.
FB01 requiers creating of financial document and your ttype is saying that posting is related to depreciation area which does not post to GL. So, this is not possible. If you need posting in that depreciation area (which does not posts to GL) you need transaction like ABSO, not standard FI transactions.

Revaluation of depreciation for prior year in alternative depreciation area

Hi,
I have a problem with a couple of assets. We are using 2 depreciation areas - one for statutory depreciation that is posted against GL accounts and one for fiscal purposes, which is only statistical.
For some assets the depreciation key in the alternative, fiscal depreciation area was wrong in last two fiscal years. Is it possible to reopen that old fiscal years and change the depreciation area to correct one and revaluate the depreciation only in that parallel depreciation area? If yes - which steps should i carry out in SAP? This depreciation area does not affect GL accounts posting - so I hope it is possible.
Thank you,
Karol

Hi Murali,
Thank you for your reply.
My only concern is - I don't want to affect the other depreciation areas (in case anything changed in their depreciation keys).
Is there a way to just open past years only for this particular depreciation area and to rerun depreciation just for it?
I thought of OAAR transaction - undo year end closing by Depreciation area - just to focus on it. Do you think it might work the same as AJRW, or should I use AJRW?
Can I run AFAR only for the selected depreciation area and it will not affect any other depreciaton area? We are using 4.6C version.
Thank you,
Karol

Depreciation area wise depreciation posting

Hi Experts,
We are using PARALLEL LEDGER for USGAAP reporting requirement. The client has weekly posting period under USGAAP reporting and thus they will perform all the month end activities as "weekend activity" in this non-leading ledger.
This will also require WEEKLY posting of depreciation run for USGAAP ledger only.
Is there any standard way wherein we can do posting only for PARALLEL LEDGER by select the weekly posting period and USGAAP depreciation area. Or can it be done through a development??
Thanks in advance
Sourabh

This scenario is not possible
