Re-link Assets and Place Assets Folder Navigation

Can you PLEASE fix the bug in Muse that causes the folder to reset (don't know if I'm explaining this clearly) when re-linking assets, and placing assets. To clarify, when I re-link an asset in Adobe Muse it defaults to 'My Computer' instead of the last folder used. This is occasionally happening when placing assets as well. It is EXTREMELY frustrating, and VERY disruptive to the workflow having to navigate to the same folder OVER and OVER and OVER. Indesign does not have this issue, can you not have this work in the same manner? (Actually until an dAdobe Air update last year this was not an issue.) It need s to be fixed IMMEDIATELY, before any new 'paralax scrolling' or such is introduced.
Thank You and I hope I can garner support from other users on this issue.

Here's how ID works with links:
First, the links in the file are absolute paths, meaning they refer to a particular location. If that location is acessible, ID will find the link and all is well. If the location is not acessible (on your colleague's hard drive, for example) ID will look for the links first in the current folder from which the .indd file was opened, and if nothing is found there, in any subfolders.
But why are you both relinking? Do you both need to work with the links for output? Since CS4 there has been a Preference under File Handling that allows you to choose whether or not to find and update links when opening files, and it seems most likely to me that one of you should be ignoring missing and modified links and jut getting to work.

Asset and sub asset simoultaneous retirement

can i config the system such a way that for specific assets...if i retire the main asset the sub assets are retired automatically....

Hi,
I don't think, this is possible.
The purpose of subnumber is to control subsequent acquisition to the main asset and/or represent complex fixed assets with their component parts.
You can retire all the subnumbers with multiple option in ABAON but I don't think you can default retirement of all subnumbers when you retire main asset.

Link in my places sub-folder has dissapeared

HI,
In my places folder i used to have the following:
Places
Desktop
Wells
Applications
Documents
However i dragged the "Wells" sub-folder out onto my desktop and i got the noise that sounds like you've dragged it to the trash. However it is not in the trash, and i have tried time machine but neither bring it back.
Now my places folder looks as followed:
Places
Desktop
Applications

Thanks

Open up Finder, navigate to the folder you want in the sidebar (i.e. "Wells") and then drag and drop it on the sidebar.

Legacy asset and acquire asset

I have some assets in company code A001 in SAP server s001. now company code A001 is decommissioning.
we want to move some assets to company code B001 in SAP server S002.
for example asset 35000010 has APC value 10000 USD, accumulated depreciation 3000 USD, by using ab01 asset
acquisition in B001, we can achieve this, I also find by using AS91 also can create legacy asset in B001.
My question is: should i use AS91 or AB01 for asset migration,
what's the PRO and CON for above two methods, thanks

You can do this in both the ways.
AS91 - Legacy to SAP
Normally you transfer within different company codes with ABT1N.
- create a new asset in the receiving company code
- transfer
Unfortunately activation of the multiple asset transfer button is not possible for inter-company transfers through transaction ABT1N or ABUMN.
Hope it helps
Thanks

Memo Value for Main Asset and Sub Asset

Dear Experts,
I am having the requirement that, all the main asset should have the memo value Rs 1.
For this I have specified the memo value in OAYI. But system is taking the memo value for Main asset as well as Sub asset.
But we don't want to keep the memo value for sub asset.
I hope, I am missing some settings. Could anyone please help me to solve this.
Regards,
Aswin

Hi:
You need to review your copy settings for sub assets for your relevant class's screen layout in SPRO...Financial Accounting,,,,Asset Accounting....Master data....Define Screen Layout for Asset Master Data....Select the screen layout which has been assigned to your asset class in OAOA. You will not find any field for value copied. So it is not possible to avoid this happening becuase it is done a t CO code level.

Asset Retirement (Legacy assets) high priority

MODERATOR: message locked. please read the rules of engagement before posting.
Dear Friends,
I am doing retirement for Legacy assets using F-92 transaction code .i selected transaction type 210 . it is giving following error
Retirement of old assets data not possible (No existing old assets data) for some asset class assets
and some asset class assets i am getting following error
Posting with trans.type 210 not possible (No acquisition posted) but values are there in legacy asset(take over values tab)
why some asset class assets are getting Retirement of old assets data not possible and some asset class assets are getting No acquisition posted
for normal assets created using AS01 no error is coming
some Legacy asset class assets retirement happening fine
plz suggest which transaction type has to use for legacy assets or need to create separate transaction type for legacy assets
we are using group asset concept
errors are
Retirement of old assets data not possible (No existing old assets data)
Message no. AA416
Diagnosis
You have tried to post an retirement based on amount, using a transaction type which refers to old assets data (acquisitions from previous years).
However, the sum of the APC at the start of the fiscal year and the transactions, related to the past, equals 0.
Procedure
Check the transaction type entered and the asset.
Posting with trans.type 210 not possible (No acquisition posted)
Message no. AA324
Diagnosis
Transaction type 210 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.

Hi,
If you are doing upload of legacy assets each year wise, then you have to AJRW for every year.
Another way-- you can set your legacy asset takeover date as same as your last closed FY end date, by keeping this date as takeover date you may not be able to run any asset balances report with a report date, which is prior to your takeover date.
For ex: if your takeover date is 31.03.2009, then you cannot run balances report with a report date <31.03.2009
For dep rate changes issue----
You have create your legacy asset with a dep key, which should have the rate of dep from takeover date only.
Whatever depreciation rate changes happend before takeover cannot be maintained in the asset master, since SAP will not calculates dep prior to takeover date. Since system will calculates dep from 01.04.2009 (according to example date) with the rate, which is appilicable from 01.04.2009 only.
What you have to do is, you need to create your dep key with currenct dep rate only and maintain the same in your legacy asset. So while creating through AS91, you need to maintain the APC value (original purchase price) Accum dep ( this amount might have derived from various dep rate calculations outside system till takeover).

Transferring from one asset to multiple assets

Dear SAPians
How can we transfer from one asset to more than one assets. Can we do it thru ABUMN or there's any other way?
Regards
Zain

Hi Dominic,
Thanks for your reply.
I have tried ABUMN. I am entering into the transaction ABUMN and specifiying transaction data (posting and asset value dates). Then I am pressing the "Multiple assets" button after which a List option is available.
I am entering the amount or percentage in partial tranfer tab.
Then I am entering asset numbers in 'from asset' and 'to asset' fields like:
From asset 300000001 to 300000005
From asset 300000001 to 300000007
When I am pressing enter, it accepts only one entry from above specified list.
That means it allows only one to one asset transfer not one to many. Is there any other setting or way to do asset tranfer from one asset to multiple assets?
regards
Zain

Runtime Shared Assets and dynamic folder structures

I am using a CMS to load dynamic pages. Most of these pages
have Flash content. The content SWFs all reference a SWF that holds
shared library assets. The CMS undergoes periodic overhauls and the
content gets shuffled. This results in broken links to my shared
assets.
Does anyone know how to set the shared library URL at
runtime? Is this even possible?

Perhap you code is executing before the shared library assets are loaded. You need to debug and find out if the shared library asset(s) is loaded ahead.
Thanks.

Is there a way to link PM and assets

Hi SAP experts,
Is there a way to link PM and assets?
For instance, if on assets we create an equipment as an asset, can it automatically create on SAP pm.
Kind regards

Yes it is possible.Have a look in config under SPRO > FI > Asset accounting > Master data > automatic creation of equipment master.

InDesign and Applescript - Another place asset question.

I am trying to place an asset on page but am having some problems. If I have an asset in my library and it has a few items in like a couple text boxes and images and they are grouped together, it places fine but then I have a problem with trying to change styles for any individual items withing that asset because seems to treat group as item 1 of that asset and can't seem to get to reference individual items of asset that has grouped items. Tried things like "item 1 of placed asset" but treats that like group which is good for move but not when wanting to reference individual items. When I create placed asset with all individual items ungrouped then it does allow me to apply styles on individual items but then can't move everything to location as a group so allignment all stays correct. Thinking that maybe I could either ungroup all items in first scenerio after moving then apply styles but not sure how to refernence that group and then the items within that group when ungrouped. Or, doing second scenerio where load asset ungrouped then apply styles then group and move but since number of items in assets can be different, not sure how to dynamically create group using repeat or something? Thanks, Joe
             repeat with i from 1 to count csvEntries
                    set csvEntry to csvEntries's item i
                    set {fldElement, fldLocationX, fldLocationY} to csvEntry's text items
                    set placedAsset to place asset asset fldElement of library "GTElements.indl" on myDocument
                        move placedAsset to {fldLocationX, fldLocationY}
                    -- apply styles to individual items os asset
                    -- Then, can I create group dynamically for all items in asset if ungrouped?
                    -- set myGroup to make group with properties {group items:{ placedAsset}}???
                    -- then move group to location?
                    -- Or
                    -- can I ungroup asset if comes in already with all items grouped
                    - First, move to location everything as a group then ungroup
                    --    tell placedAsset
                    --           ungroup
                    --    end tell
                    -- Now apply styles to individual items.

I was working on script which uses dialog window. When you run script window with listbox pop up and than you can choose asset with shortcut. This is fastes way for placeing assets from library.
Did you try this
var myplacedasset=app.libraries[libIndex].assets.item(assetName).placeAsset(app.activeDocumen t);
Do what you want to do (apply object syles etc)
app.select(myplacedasset);
In this case you don't need to group item, you just select them and move selection to desired position.

Meta data and data asset management

I am looking for suggestions and or products that can support managing our footage.
Our goal is for an editor to search for a clip using the data entered in the “description” (metadata) field of clips and sub-clips that have been logged in various projects.
Here is the outline.
We record clips of high def footage and we import batches of these clips; sometimes a few dozen, and sometimes thousands. We bring these batches into a Premiere Pro CS5 project by importing the video clips from within a P2 card folder structure, or avchd, or dslr footage or ??/any format we collect...
We log a description of the clips and of sub-clips, and then we edit a film from those elements. After 1 project, or after 50 projects, we have all the detailed description (metadata) we've entered about each clip and sub-clip captured, and this data lives within the CS5 project. We can only search it from within the original project.
If we start a new project and we need to look back at footage from old projects, we can only search for footage by going into that old project . We would like to have the metadata write back to our archive (or a copy of the footage in a new archive.) If the archive and the clips and sub-clips had the metadata from the project we could search and find assets. Among the obstacles is that sub-clips share the name of the clip it comes from so there is no “place” for it’s metadata. We've tried using Project Manager>Collect Files & Copy to New Location but the subclip .mxf files created through this process are copies of the source clip despite being labeded "random.subclip001". When imported, this "random.subclip001" file shows up in Premiere as the original "random" source clip name.
We are looking at a small library – but it’s big for us. About 20 terabytes… A typical client might have 4-6 terabytes of assets we would like to look through for a shot, or an interview… Has anyone made inroads on this?
Many thanks for any thoughts and ideas.
Sincerely,
Rees Candee

Hi Abhilash,
Meta Data-
In BW the meta-data contain data about data.
It is like having information about the information.
You have the business related meta-data for example the description used in your reports or the technical related meta-data for example the rules used in the transformation or the extraction. These are the two types of meta-data you have in the metadata repository that you manage with the metadata manager
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/80/1a6197e07211d2acb80000e829fbfe/content.htm
Meta Data Repository
It is the repository which Manages Meta Data, for example like when talking about an ODS in the metadatarepository you can read about which characteristics, key figures, infosource and updaterules are used in it. And creation date, owner etc.

Difference between Asset and Equipment

Hi All,
Can someone tell me the difference between Asset (Created using AS01) and Equipment (Created using IE01).
Thanks,
Rock

Dear Rock,
Asset is a financial entity managed by SAP-AA (Asset Accounting) component. Though, it has some logistic data to manage (and one can always add user-defined fields) its main purpose is to manage fixed assets as a part of the company's financial statement by applying different tools like depreciation, capitalization, retirement etc. Equipment, however, is a logistic entity which allows you to manage the logistic flow for your assets, by tracing the place of installation, managing repair/service orders, parts of equipment, etc. An equipment (or several equipments) could be linked to a financial asset. It's important to emphasize that not every equipment is a financial asset, and not every financial assets is an equipment even if you are about to implement both AA and PM in your SAP project.

Eli

Purchase Order and Fixed Asset Module.

Hi all,
I want to print my purchase order of fixed asset for record purposes. But the thing, I can't link purchase order or any of A/P documents to my fixed asset.
Meaning, if A/P invoice has been added into the system, it will not update my fixed asset master data.
Therefore, I have to use PO for printing, since there's no way to print Fixed Acquisition as a document. By doing this, i need to maintain both Item Master Data and Fixed Asset Master Data with Fixed Asset items, which i find tedious.
Is there a solution for this, like perhaps there's a way to copy info from PO to FA acquisition, or Posted A/P Invoice that contains Fixed Asset item will be linked to FA Acquisition, or perhaps there's a way to print FA Acquisition (like a PLD) that i am not aware of?
Please do help.
Thanks upfront!
Rgrds,
Kevin
Edited by: Kevin Lau Sieh Huo on May 20, 2008 7:25 AM

Hi Kevin,
I am afraid to inform you that the print layout function is not
supported for Fixed asset transactions such as acquisition.
As you mentioned, if you want to use it as PO document, you will need to create PO in business one since no integration is realized between Purchasing in business one and acquisition in Fixed asset addon.
If you think this will have critical impact on your business process, please post your requirement in our SAP Business One Product Development Collaboration.

Can we build equity and acquire assets without banks while rebuilding credit??

Hi.Thank you for taking a look at my post. I hope we can help each other. I have 3 goals for this post. 1 - to reach out to this community for opinions, leads, and hopefully contact info for private lenders who really do lend based on the asset and not focus on our marred credit. 2 - maybe members (and of course me) can find someone else on this site who is/are in similar situations and can put resources together to start making lots of money without the banks. 3 - just being honest...I simply need to vent my frustrations in a safe environment where I'm sure there are others who can relate :-) I am getting back into real estate fix & flip, rehab after several years of life altering events and recuperating from personal injuries. I am not an agent or anything like that. I'm just really good at finding and negotiating awesome deals that I end up having to flip. I've worked my butt off to save and purchased one here and there but I need to find funding to get to the next level. I joined this site because my credit is in repair and I'm working the information I read about in this forum. Having gone from a high level of success to wondering how I was going to get from the bedroom to the bathroom, I feel like this is the one place I can trust to put myself out there and get meaningful, non-judgmental peer-peer responses with solid pertinent information. Hence why I could use some opinions and hope to get some leads on lenders that might help me out. With several properties under contract, I'll have to flip to other buyers at discounted values if I can't find a lender. I've spoken with about 20 lenders who claim they are "private", "hard money", "Asset-based" commercial loans, investor driven, bad credit, blah...blah...blah...only to find out they really are just like dealing with a bank. I am not claiming to have great credit and I realize on paper I look pretty weak. However, the whole time they are making claims they are not credit driven...what do you think the first thing they want is...yup...credit scores! Even though the numbers of the asset are very strong and purchased in an LLC. They all require full doc personal financials...the whole time they are saying they don't really judge you on credit....RIGHT! While these "direct lenders" and "private money lenders" may not have to work under the federal bank lending regulations, THEY are not interested in anyone who doesn't meet THEIR rigid requirements. Which in reality are exactly the same as the regular banks. I have yet to find one lender that truly bases their decisions on the property asset without pulling credit, bank statements, etc. They all will only lend a portion of what is needed (50 -75% LTV or LTC )based on the lowest value they can determine (Purchase price or appraisal which ever is lower) which means they have essentially no risk and the investor has to bring in a lot of cash. No difference. They are essentially all the same and just boast about being different. This is all fine if that is how they run their business. I am the last to judge them for that. However, I am tired of wasting my time talking to company after company making these claims but really won't put their money where their mouth is!! I have also looked into a lot of the sites for peer-peer funding. In general they are all fantastic and serve a great purpose. Especially for kids and fundraising purposes. But I'm working on a business. On those sites, you really have to put your self out there on the front line and air your dirty laundry to the world in order to participate. I realize I could do that and tell my sad story and why I want people to invest in me and my project. Frankly, maybe I'm too proud or going about this all wrong but I'm just not ready to post my story to the world and ask my friends and family for handouts. I don't want people feeling sorry for me or my name all over the internet telling people my credit sucks (even though it isn't that bad now). Let's be honest - who posts on a peer-peer funding site for their own benefit if you have your financial life in order!! That said, I'm sure none of us would be on this site if we didn't have or have had financial turmoil in our lives. Who cares why.. it happens. Hopefully, we all realize that is not what defines us as people and we can all achieve our dreams like any one else. It just might take longer, or a bit more work. You get the picture. So I thought, what if others on this site are experiencing the same things. Do you feel like you are missing out on opportunities to make your money grow? Maybe you have improved your credit but don't have enough cash to get a loan. Maybe you can't get a loan because of credit but you have cash. Maybe you can't get a bank account and are missing out on investment opportunities because your money is sitting under your mattress. Seems to me people on this sight are all focused on the same thing and have the best interests of others in sight. We also have this fantastic forum to discuss our money issues and glean insight and information from others that helps us improve our situations. I'm wondering if we could partner up our strengths and find ways to benefit by working together with other like minded members. You thoughts are of great value. Please post.

Are you debt free? Do you have any cash to throw into this? If no... what about subbing out under someone else or getting in GCing or Foreman for a bigger company while you cleanup your personal finances? Real estate is AWESOME, but if you can't cashflow at least a good chunk of it, you can get in a pretty scary spot... What kind of assets do you have? Could you flip your own home and use those monies to invest in your next flip and live as cheap as possible through a few flips until you have a good bit of cash built up?

Synchronisation of assets and equipment

Hi All,
I'm busy trying to link our assets to our equipment. In SPRO, i am trying to add two more fields for synchronisation.
I went to SPRO> Financial Accounting> Asset Accounting> Master Data> Automatic Creation of equipment master records> Assign Master Data Fields of Assets and Equipment
I enter the two new fields, but when i save it, it gives me the error " Consistency check for TAAPM2 resulted in error"
I did this before and never got this error. I tried searching on this forum, but nothing for this error.
Any advice on what to do?
Kind Regards
Emanuel

Hi Emanual,
In u2018specify conditions for synchronize master datau2019
I entered Equipment category as M (Machines), Object type as 2113 (Vehicles)
In Edit Asset Master Records I selected u2018Direct Synchronization After savingu2019 for create equipment and change equipment.
In u2018Assign Data Fields of Assets and Equipmentsu2019 I did not do any changes
In u2018Develop Enhancement for field and class assignmentu2019 I did not do any changes.
Still it does not create any equipments when I'm creating assets.
Thank you,
