Repeat run depreciation in AFAB

Important and urgent
The issue is related to depreciation, I have changed the depreciation key in the asset class and depreciation was posted this resulted in very high value of depreciation for the period. As standard SAP I understand that when we change the depreciation key in asset class this will recalculate the depreciation values.
What I now done is I have put back the depreciation key again and run AFAR (Depreciation planned run) and trying to do repeat run using AFAB for posted values in the period.
But the posted values are not making any change, when I done the same in Quality this took affect. Any suggestions please...
Thanks
Srinath

Hi Srinath,
if you change the depreciation key in the asset class (OAYZ) it has definitely no effect on already created assets.
This could only has an impact on assets that you create up to now.
Please check (in AS02) which depreciation key you have on the asset itself.
If this is the wrong key, please change it and make a recalculation of values.
regards Bernhard

Error during repeat run depreciation via tcode AFAB

hi,
I have removed year-end closing for assets to year 1999 via tcode OAAQ . However, once i want to run repeat depreciation via tcode AFAB, I received error messages as follows:-
1. Field Cost Ctr is a required field for G/L account 4300000
2. Account 'Expense account for ordinary depreciation' could not be found.
Appreciate your advise to solve the errors.
Thanks a lot!

Dear Mohd.,
PLease check the following in ur configuration:
1) You must have CO implemented. That is why when u run, AFAB system posts its depreciation in cost center mentioned in asset master. Now do one thing, take out the list of assets where cost center is not attached. Take out this info from ANLZ table.
2) Go to AO90 & check the account assignment to all the account determinations.
Try executing after this. It will work.
Regards,
Ajay

Depreciation repeat run (period 14) - no areas to post to...

Hi Experts,
We have problem - cannot run Repeat run depreciation (posting to period 14 - audit adjustment)
We did reverse document for fixed asset, therfore we would like to do Repeat run depreciation.
However while we run, the error showing<i> "there are no areas to post to in company code xxx"</i>
Kindly advise. Thank you.

Hi,
- simulate AFAB for period 15 (if exists) for the specific asset and see if it has any entries
- try repeat run for period 14 specifying the asset number in the selection screen
- check for Posted Values tab in AW01N for the asset in question and see if any yellow triangle is seen or any depreciation planned.

U continue with posting the depreciation in Period 12. It will post the entries

Ordinary depreciation changed in repeat run

Hi Gurus,
We posted some unplanned depreciation in march 2010. and did afab in repeat run for period 12.
System posted unplanned depreciation but in some assets ordinary depreciation is also changed. After analysing one of
the asset i come to know that difference posted to ordinary depreciation is due to follows
Previously depreciation was calculated on days basis for example (depreciartion start date is 01/02/2010) system calculated depreciation for 28 days out of 365 days.
In repeat run system calculated depreciation for 2 month i.e for 2 month out of 12 month.
Hence in repeat run deprcaition amount is changed by the diffrece amout.
I checked the depreciation key of an asset it is not changed nor any field in depreciation key like based method, decl bal method,
prd control, multilev method, class ,changed method ,multiple shift , scrap value is changed.
Unable to know why ord dep has changed? which field in dep key can result in said chage?
Please help
Regards,
Shekhar

Hi,
The normal behaviou of unplanned depreciation run posting is, it will not affect normal periodical depreciation.
If the NBV became zero or less than normal depreciation value, then there is a chance of difference in normal depreciation posting. Please check the NBV of the asset.

Depreciation : Repeat run to be done ...which got posted earlier

Depreciation is already posted thru AFAB for March. Now there are some more assets, which came later will be capitalised, and has to be posted in the same run / month.
What is the best way :
Should we execute "Repeat run" for only those assets ?.
Whether the depreciation already posted to FI, can be reversed ?. If yes,,how ??
If the above is possible, then should we execute the full repeat run & post again ??
thanks
amit

You can do a complete Repeat run. It post the difference between the normal and the the repeat run.
It should then only the new postings. Run it as test run and you see the result

AJAB-Error AFAB-Not allowing repeat run

Dear Friends
User executed AFAB in 12-2008 and since period was still open, asset retirement was posted in period 12-2008. As a result of this, the asset net book value is open by the amount of depreciation which was posted for the period 12-2008. We tried all options such as- Recalculate depreciation from asset master data, activated asset again, opened period 12-2008 and trying to run AFAB -Repeat run for period 12- 2008 in test mode for such retired assets only and system does not show any asset values in AFAB and no error log is also created. What could be the reason for this? AJAB gives an error due to these retired asset as planned depreciation -dep which was posted for 12- 2008 is shown in AS03 also as planned depreciation to be reversed for such assets is not completely posted. Tried posting with AFAB in period 13 and planned posting run also, but nothing happens with AFAB. I have following questions
What could be reason for these assets not being depreciated by repeat run of AFAB.
What is the solution for resolving the error -Planned depreciation not completely posted- in AJAB
If AJAB is not run, can we still post depreciation for period 1- 2009
Thanks and regards

Hi Kylie and AP,
Many thanks for the quick response. I reversed the retirement document and it corrects the situation and now no error in AJAB. But if I still run AFAB in test mode for repeating the run, I don't get any values for the asset. This is because, depreciation was already posted in period 12, 2008 and now there is nothing to post for depreciation. I am not sure if we can do repeat run of AFAB in 12,2008 and retire the asset again in period 12, 2008.
Just to clarify the following part: Did you mean to do this in 2008? Pl. clarify how do I do the following? This is because AFAB is not going to post anything for repeat run in 2008 as I described below and if we repeat retirement in 2008, then the same error will appear in AJAB.
You'll need to reverse the retirements and then run the depreciation program in repeat mode.
You should be able to then retire the assets, and perform year-end close.
Thanks and regards.

Error when run Depreciation Posting Run AFAB

Hi,
I found error when run Depreciation Posting Run for period 7 2007.
FYI. I had run Unplanned Depreciation (TCode: ABAA) with document date 31.10.2007 and posting date 31.10.2007, trans. type 640. After that, i want to run Depreciation Posting Run (TCode: AFAB) with fiscal year: 2008, posting period: 7, reason for posting run: repeat. Select on Test Run. Then i found error message as below.
Error Message:
Documents manually posted within dep.doc.number range
Message no. AA728
Diagnosis
In the number range interval for the document type for posting depreciation, a document has been posted which was not created within the framework of depreciation posting. The last document posted by depreciation posting was assigned the number .
Procedure
Contact your Systems Specialist. When changing the number range interval for the document type in depreciation posting, you have to specify a new interval in which no documents exist. Using organizational measures, you can guarantee that there are no documents apart from those created by depreciation posting in this number range.
Can any one help how to solve this issue?

No log Display - AFAB - Repeat Run - Test mode

Hi mates,
I am unable to view any log while executing the AFAB for repeat run option. however, if I run in background, the system provides a spool containing the assets with values.
Could someone please let me know the reason?
Regards,
Surya

Symptom
You want to reverse a depreciation posting run.
Additional key words
Depreciation posting, RABUCH00, depreciation posting run, reverse depreciation posting, reversal
Cause and prerequisites
In most cases, you might wish to reverse the depreciation posting run for one of the following reasons:
Incorrect depreciation terms
Solution
Reversing a depreciation posting run is not possible for safety and consistency reasons.Instead of carrying out a reversal, proceed as follows:
Process completely the batch input session (which is incorrect from your point of view) from the depreciation posting run.
Correct the incorrect fixed assets (for example, set the correct depreciation keys in the fixed assets)
If you change the definition of depreciation keys in Customizing, start program RAAFAR00 for recalculating the depreciation on the fixed assets.
Restart the depreciation posting run for the same period, this time using the option "Repeated run". For this option, a batch input session is generated that posts only the differences which result compared to the preceding regular run.
Process the batch input session generated here.
For the introduction phase you find a program "Reset posted depreciation" in the IMG. You must never use this program in a production system.If you use this program in a test system, note that this program resets the posted depreciations only from the point of view of Asset Accounting.Documents posted into Financial Accounting or into cost accounting are not reversed automatically.

Message no. AA687to run depreciation AFAB

We go live in clear new copany and uploaded all assets with data transfer 31.06.2009.
But when I tried to run depreciation AFAB I got a message:
You can only post in new year after closing the previous year.
Message no. AA687
Diagnosis
You want to post in a new fiscal year. However, a posting must have been made in the last period in the previous fiscal year before you can do this.
I don't know than to do even though fiscal year is changed to 2010 and previous fiscal year 2009 is already closed
Vs 603
Help me please

Hi Andrea,
Yes of course you can reverse the depreciation posted, please understand how system behaves.
...system calculates the depreciation to be posted according to the depreciation keys and depreciation start date. and shows as an accumulated depreciation.
...while posting depreciation values gets posted to our depreciation accounts from accumulated depreciation.
...If after this any change is made in the configuration such as AFAMA OAYR ect, the system by itself will adjust the values to be re posted and shows as a negative or positive accumulated depreciation according to the configuration impact.
.... to post correct values now, run AFAB in repeat run mode and post the values.
... The values will get corrected
Thanks and Best Regards

AFAB - Repeat Run & Restart Run

Hello Sap Experts
Can anyone kindly explain the situation we need to use "Repeat Run" & "Restart Run" available in AFAB.
Kindly expain.
Thanks & Regards
Deepak Garg

Hi Deepak,
Repeat run is used to post the depreiciation for assets in a period, for which the planned depreciation has been posted.
Ex: You have run the dep for 01-2010, then in the same period you might have added some more assets and need to be posted depreciation for the same period again. In this case repeat run would be useful.
Note: this repeat run can be done for the last posted period only.
Restart option is to continue the depreciation posting run from a last dep run, which is stopped due to some errors casused at the system level.
Thanks,
Srinu

In repeat run, can i calculate Depreciation for perticular period.

Hi
when I calculate the depreciation in Repeat Run, It shows the message that for 12 periods only the Dep is calculated.
But I want to calculate the Dep for Particular period. Is it possible?????
If possible pl give me the suggession
Venkata Raju

Hi,
You can't do.
See below note:
It is possible to repeat the posting run within the period last posted. However, in contrast to the first run for a period, the repeat run can be restricted to specific assets. In the repeat run, the system posts changes to depreciation, as compared to the depreciation amounts from the previous run.
Normally the repeat run is carried out at the end of the fiscal year, if completing postings are necessary because of corrections to manual depreciation or depreciation terms.

Asset Accounting - Depreciation Repeat Run

Hi Seniors,
Depreciation run upto period 7 is over. Now, client wants to create few Intangible assets and depreciation needs to be run from period 1. I created one Intangible asset in Quality Server and tried to do repeat run for that particular asset. It says the posting will be done in Period 7. But, client wants the depreciation to be posted every month. Is there any way for this? Periods are open.
with sincere Regards

Hi Kumar,
Repeat run option is only for running the depreciation for the previous month only in this case period 7. The system calculates the amount from the period 1-7 and posts in period 7.
One option you can try is. You can create the repeat depreciation run for period 7 for this particular asset in background and process the same in foreground, changing the posting date and amount. Make sure your period is open.
Test this scenerio in your test client.
Regards
Sridhar

Depreciation repeat run -previous period

We have done planned depreciation run for 10th (currrent) period without running repeat run for 9th (previous) period.
Please help us how to carry repeat run for 9th period.
thanx in advance
Srihari

Hi Srihari,
"N" number of times you can able to Re-run depreciation posting, no doubt about it.
here you are posted dep for 10th period and again you are capitalised asset for previous period (9th), now we have two options.
1 - Based on dep key system calculate dep for previous periods and post next period (11th)
Ex: Asset Value = $ 12000 % use ful life 10 years.
Dep 10% every month = $ 100
here when you execute dep for the period 11th system post $ 300 depreciation value. ( this method called Catch up method)
2 - Smoothing Method ( Go to T.Code: OAYR and select Smoothing Check Bok)
now your asset report shows from 9th to 12th period $100 every month.
this situation you can run again Re-Run Depreciation, system will post dep amount respective months.

Viswa
