Re activating Depreciation area

Hi Experts,
We are trying to re activate an old depreciation area. I came across a note explaing how AFBN can help re activate. But the job RAFABNEW runs for chart of depreciation. I want to know if this can be configured to run for one company code. This is due to error AU158 while executing for chart of depreciation.
Thanks,

Hi,
RAFABNEW can only be executed by chart of depreciation.
It cannot be executed by company.

  • How to include depreciation are in  asset master data

    I have already activated depreciation area in the asset class but it did not appear inn asset master data.
    How to include it there?

    Naej

    Hi,
    There are 2 aspect which you need to consider.
    1) For exisiting asset as  used AFBN as suggested by Srinivasa to activate the depreciation area.
    2) For new asset OAYZ configuation would populate the dep key and life.

  • Asset values not coming in depreciation area

    Hi Experts,
    Following the management requirement we have created a new depreciation area 50 with posting indicator "0".
    We found that asset posting from CJ88 (AUC to Final settlement) is not getting updated in depreciation area 50.
    Please help me this. Necessary details are mentioned below:-
    1. Depreciation area 50 is activated for main asset class but not for CWIP.
    2. For depreciation area 50, value maintenance is set as Only Positive values or zero allowed.(Screen shot attached)
    3. Transaction type 336 is not restricted to any depreciation area.(Screen shot attached)
    Am attaching relevant screen shot.
    Thanks in advance

    HI Mukhthar,
    Thanks for the prompt reply.
    In some cases system is updating values in depreciation area 50 even CWIP is not activated but in maximum cases system is not updating the values.
    I have carried out the changes in quality by activating depreciation area 50 for CWIP and perform a test case and it works but i want to know the root cause of this issue that why system is behaving like this and how it updates value in some cases.
    Please suggest

  • Add first depreciation area

    Hi,
    The asset class was set with no active depreciation area. The assets were created within this asset class. (For some reasons it was ok- only master data without values.)
    Now the asset class was changed and deprecation area 01 is active. The new assets are created with depreciation area.
    How can I add depreciation area  to old assets? TC AFBN need the reference depreciation area but there is no one.
    thanks
    Ryszard

    Thanks for reply,
    It is solution I try avoid. I have 4000 position of this assets. After two years of using the user said it will be better to add values to these assets and the problem occurs.
    After changing the assets I will post an acquisition to them.
    Thanks,

  • Fixed asset Write up Error. ABZU(Parallel depreciation area 32 is not poste

    Hi Sap Gurus,
          I am running into an error when trying to post a write up via "ABZU". Here is the error message "Parallel depreciation area 32 is not posted". Message no. AA565.
    Diagnosis
    The asset to be posted does not manage parallel depreciation area 32, or transaction type  that you are using is limited to certain depreciation areas, and does not contain depreciation area 32. This is incorrect.
    System Response
    Posting is rejected.
    Procedure
    Check the asset and the transaction type.
    I tried "Limit Transaction Types to Depreciation Areas" in t-code:OAXE for derpeciation area 01 and 32 but still i am getting the same error. I am using ttype:700. When i look into derpeciation tab in asset master record i have depreciation area 32 is there. Is there any configuration piece i am missing. We are using area 32 as IFRS in group which is copy of 01.
    Any help will be appreciate.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Babu

    Hi,
    There are the following reasons:                                                                               
    1) The wrong transaction type is being used.  Please verify that  you are using transaction type in the 700 series for your write-up.     
    2) The transaction type is restricted to certain depreciation areas.   In transaction OAXE the transaction type can be restricted to post  only to certain areas.  If the asset manages a parallel area you  have to extend the posting to include the parallel area.                 
    3) The asset was created before you introduced parallel currencies and  does not manage the parallel area.  In this case, the parallel  area must be created on the asset or the values need to be  transferred to a new asset that manages the parallel area.                       
    4) Transacion types 600 and 601 can only be used for assets that have a  calculation key in their depreciation area that allows no automatic  calculation (for example depr key MANU).  The unplanned transaction types however can be used with assets that  allow automatic calculation.                                                     
    You also need to verify that there are entries in Table ANLB for the  asset in question for the depreciation area. 
    5) Your company code uses parallel currencies (currency types 10-co.code  currency, 50-Index based currency, 30-Group currency...for example).  The assets created in this company code must have the depreciation areas for parallel currencies active. You can only do this in activating the depreciation areas with  parallel currencies for all the asset classes used in this company code.                                                                            
    Check transaction OAYZ to make sure the areas are activated for all  asset classes in the co.code.  If not, you will need to       activate these areas and ensure the asset has all areas assigned.

  • New Depreciation Area - AFBN

    Dear Experts,
    My user has given a new scenario where we have to calculate tax depreciation for assets transferred from US books to SG books. When the transfers were executed, the tax depreciation area was not set up in the SG books' Chart of Depreciation. We do have other company codes assigned to the same chart of depreciation. For these other company codes, tax depreciation calculation is not required. In addition, the transferred assets and the assets in the other company codes share the same asset classes. The requirement is that we want to calculate the tax depreciation in the SG book only but not the other company codes.
    Initially, we are looking at setting up the tax depreciation area in the SG book and activate the depreciation area via AFBN (program RAFABNEW). This will activate the tax depreciation area for all existing assets under the chart of depreciation/asset class assignment. However, we found out that we could not deactivate the depreciation area in the existing assets in the other company codes. This is regardless of whether we activate the field XAFBE (deactivate depreciation area) in the depreciation area layout. Seems that this only works with new assets.
    Would like to seek your advice on the options available other than creating new asset classes for these transferred assets.
    Is it possible to enhance the program RAFABNEW to include company code and asset classes?
    Thank you.

    This is another option that I used on that scenario, but it is up to you if you want to follow the same approach. We created a custom program that will put a temporary deactivation date on the assets the we do not want to extend the new book. Basically this is direct update on field ANLA-DEACTIV.
    Then we run AFBN, since the assets are deactivated, new depreciation area will not be created on these assets, but only on those assets that are active.
    Then you can set the deactivation date again back to "Blank" after you run AFBN.
    Thanks!

  • 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

  • Parallel depreciation area 04 is not posted.(Assets)

    Hi All,
    I have found below mentioned error at the time of Advance knocking off.(F-54)
    Parallel depreciation area 04 is not posted.
    I have found below mentioned error at the time of Advance knocking off.
    The error message number :AA565
    The Asset to be posted does  not manage parallel depreciation area 04,or transaction type that you are using is limited to certain depreciation areas and does not contain depreciation area 04. This is incorrect.
    Please help out for this issue.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Ram

    Hi Ram
    With regards to the issue, if you have activated the use of parallel currencies, all assets created in this company code must have the depreciation areas for parallel currencies active. You can only do this by activating the depreciation areas with parallel currencies for all the asset classes used in this company code. Check transaction OAYZ to make sure the areas are activated for all asset classes in the co.code . If not, you will need to activate these areas and ensure the asset has
    all areas assigned.
    Another reason why the error message appeared could be the asset was created before you introduced parallel currencies and does not manage the parallel area. In this case, the parallel area must be created on the asset or the values need to be transferred to new asset that manages the parallel area.
    I hope this information helps.
    Best regards
    George

  • Parallel Currency Depreciation Areas.

    Hi,
    I have activated parallel currencies (Hard Currency - EUR & Indexed Based - USD) concept to my company code.  I am trying to settle WBS, that time I am getting error message "Company code XXXX manages parallel currencies in Asset Accounting. For each area that posts automatically online to FI, you have to define one dependent depreciation area that adopts both identical values and depreciation terms from depreciation area 01, and which is assigned to currency type 40 and currency EUR. There is no depreciation area of this type defined for depreciation area 01"
    For the above error how to create dependent depreciation area and attaching to currency type EUR". 
    Help is needed very urgent.
    Thanks in advance for the same.
    Regards.

    Hi,
    Normally when you activated parallel currencies, then you should have minimum 2 depreciation area. First is Book Depreciation , and the second is "Group Currency"  Depreciation.
    You can define depreciation Area for "Group Currency" in :
    SPRO -> Asset Accounting -> Valuation -> Define Depreciation Area
    Then you should Specify Area Type in t-code : OADC. Set "Typ"= 6 (group Valuation) for the "Group Currency" depreciation area.
    Then Specify Transfer of APC Values in t-code : OABC , fill "ValAd"= 01 and tick column "Identical" for "Group Currency" Area.
    Do the same thing in t-code : OABD.
    Then You should define currency for those depreciation area in t-code : OAYH.
    Last, you should Specify the  use of parallel currencies in :
    SPRO=> Asset Accounting -> Valuation -> Currency ->Specify the  use of parallel currencies .
    For "Group Currency" Depreciation area , Fill following :
    "Currency Type" = 30 Group Currency
    Tick "IdAPC"
    "Ttr" = 1 book depreciation
    Tick "Indnt Trn"
    Hope It can help.

  • New Depreciation Area after go-live

    Hi Gurus
    We are on ECC 6.0 in a production environment having gone live in April 2008.
    We had gone live with only Depreciation Area 01. Other depreciation areas were de-activated. We have a requirement now to create a new depreciation area 15 for Income Tax Depreciation. We have activated the Dep Area 15 & did the necessary configuration including activation of group assets. We have run the program AFBN for creating new Dep Area. We have created a couple of assets which are also working fine.
    However, when we try to update the depreciation values for assets (using AS92) which are already gone live from April 2008, we encounter a problem. We cannot change the depreciation key for Dep Area 15. Also, the group asset field is deactivated for gone live assets. But it works fine for assets created afresh.
    Please help.
    Regards

    Hi,
    You have to select specific asset classes for group assets via the config.
    and you can set default dep keys at asset class level. via config. (maintain dep keys for dep area 15)
    Please check and revert back.
    Thanks,

    I have checked all the relevant settings which might cause the above error, but, in vain.

    3rd locl cur: USD; Type: 40 - Hard currency

    Still unable to trace out the root cause of this error.
    Kindly provide your inputs to solve this.

    Hi Vivek,
    Thanks for your response.
    Parallel depreciation areas were deactivated earlier. I have activated them now. I also have inserted parallel dep areas through AFBN as they were missing in the assets.
    After the above changes, system allowed me to post unplanned depreciation.

  • Avoid depreciation posting for a depreciation area

    Hello experts,
    I have the following problem:
    I created a new valuation area for fixed assets that is to be active since 31.12.2007. Values are going to be uploaded for the new area in this transfer date. Afterwards, depreciation  for years 2008, 2009 and 2010 is to be run in order to post the depreciation of the new area during these years but I don´t want any depreciation to be posted in area 01 by any means, because for this area depreciation is already posted. I know that no depreciation shoud be posted because planned depreciation is already equal to real depreciation in area 01 but just in any case I would like to avoid depreciation to be posted in this area.
    So, I thought about shutting down the asset for area 01 but when testing it. I don´t see the efect, I mean the asset keeps depreciating. I put the shutdown flag in the asset master data and also created a new depreciation key, to assign a different key depending on depreciation area. For the area I need sutdown, shutdown indicator is set to "yes" at the assignment of calculation method (transaction AFAMA) but for the depr. area I don´t need the sutdown indicator is set to "no" .
    Is it a good idea to use asset shutdown in this case or is there any risk of area 01  trying to adjust the already posted depreciation?
    Why shutting down the asset is failing since I configured both asset master master and depr. key?
    Is there another solution (different to shutdown) to avoid posting depreciations in area 01? 
    Thanks in advace, rmb

    Hi,
    my last answer was wrong - I'm sorry.
    Shutdown is the correct solution.
    For shutdown there are 2 settings relevant.               
    1) in Asset master date you hav set the flat shotdown.    
    2) In depr. Key you have not set "Shutdown. Yes"          
          ad 2)                                        
    AFAMA:                                                    
      Depr. Key                                                    
        -> Assignment of Calculation Methods                  
         -> please see the last field below.       
    For sure I would not change the standard depr. key, i would make a copy.

  • Parallel Currencies and Depreciation areas

    Hi all
    I have a simple question. When we maintain multiple currencies for a company code, what are the requirements for maintaining depreciation areas? Do we need to maintain a seperate depreciation area per currency? I am unsure of the link between multiple currencies and depreciation areas.
    Need ur expert help to help me understand this better.
    Thxs in advance.
    Hrishi

    HI
    Any Depreciation Posting should automatically post to all the currencies that are active for a company code. In your case Parallel currency. Depreciation area has no link to the currency.
