Retirement of Assets

Hello Everyone,
i was testing the T.code ABNK(Posting the Subsequent cost from the asset retirement) when i was doing this system is throwing a warning message saying "Asset is a group asset: posting with transaction type not allowed" i have to define the group asset for all the assets which i created as it is a mandatory field .can anyone tell me what is the solution for this query
Thanks in advance.

hi ,
Kindly check whether individual asset assigned to the group asset is being retired using transaction FB05 and then it is possible to post the subsequent cost to the individual asset and create transaction type in AO81 and post to the individual asset the subsequent cost will be reflected in the group asset ,hence retirement of group asset takes place when all the indiviudal asset is retired.

Asset Retirement: Transaction "Asset Sale without customer" (ABAON)

Hi Experts,
While posting Asset Retirement in ABAON, error occurs as "SYST: You can not determine the period for rule 02 to 23.03.11".
Here we are retiring 3 assets. One from one asset class & other 2 from another asset class.
for the 1st Asset Class- period ctrl. method is 006 and in T-code AFAMP, in retirement column rule for 006 is defined as 11, which means "Next Month". AND...........
for 2nd Asset class- period ctrl. method is 003 and in T-code AFAMP, in retirement column rule for 003 is defined as 02, which means "Pro Rata upto mid-period at period start date."
Now I think problem is there for 2nd asset class as rule 02 can not determine the period according to error.
Please explain the logic? What axactly system is saying? and how can I solve this issue?
Regards,
Nilesh

Hi Nilesh
Nice to know the issue has been resolved.
OAVH is used to determine the relationship between posting intervals and periods in the given fiscal year version. The assignment entries in OAVH have to be changed in the following cases:
u2022 You use period control rules you defined yourself.
u2022 You change the definition of the periods in the fiscal year version in Financial Accounting.
As you noticed, case you use a year-dependent fiscal year variant, then you have to perform OA84 to generate period controls properly.
For more information, you can refer to IMG documentation in following IMG menu path:
IMG: Asset Accounting -> Depreciation -> Valuation Methods -> Period Control -> Define Calender Assignments (OAVH) / Generate Period Controls (OA84)

No retirements/deactivated assets in Asset History Sheet?

Dear all,
My customer has made a lot of retirements of assets the latest month. When doing retirements the status on the asset is "deactivated" and also I can see the deactivation date. All retired and deactivated assets can be seen in the Asset History sheet. But if I want to see the asset register without retired assets, how do I do that? Does it has something to do with the "history sheet version" in the Asset History Sheet report? Or do I have to shut down the asset?
Very glad for any help!
Many thanks in advance!
Best Regards, Åsa

Hi,
If you execute the RAGITT, in the output list you have the button "dynamic selections".
-> posting information
-> Deactivation on
-> in the field right press the error and go to "exclude ranges"
-> Here please enter 01.01.2010 - 31.12.2010
If you now execute the RAGITT for 2010 all in 2010 deactivated asset are excluded.

Auto retirement in Asset

Hi gurus,
Is there an automatic retirement in asset once the set deletion flag or inactive status in plant maintenance equipment is activated?
Thank you!

Hello Cristi,
I think there is no automatic process settings in PM for retirement of asset after seting the deletion flag in the equipment master data.
But you can do one thing at the time of updating of equipment after setting the deletion flag u can write a simple program in * exit IEQM0003 *.
It will check the required functions and will perform the process as required by you.
Thanks and regards

Retirement of Assets - Document splitting

Dear All
I am trying to post retirement of multiple assets with cost centers belonging to different profit center through F-92. I have document splitting activated, but the Customer line item is not getting split according to the profit centers of the assets so retired and it is giving a Balancing profit center error and so the posting of retirement of assets cannot be taken place.
Please suggest.
Thanks & regards
Nitesh

Hi Nilesh,
For Customer's & Vendor's it will not update profit center field via Entry View (FB03)
Whereas it updates via General Ledger view (FB03)
With reference to other line items of P&L and Balance sheet GL accounts Vendor/customer Profit center field updates.
It seems that in your case, to be retired all assets codes do not have cost center OR Profit center not assigned to all cost centers.
Please check all the assets codes have cost centers OR all cost centers having Profit centers.
Table ANLZ for checking Cost center against Asset code
and CSKS for checking Profit center against Cost center

Worklist for Mass Retirement of Assets

Hello,
My company is in the design development phase of implementing SAP, and I am trying to do a mass retirement of assets by a worklist in our Sandbox.
I have been able to generate the Worklist, but when I go in to transaction AR31 to release the worklist I receive a message that says "No Administrator Found for the Task"
Can anyone tell me what this means, and how I can fix it??
Thank you in advance for any help!!
Amy

For mass retirements, there are the standard workflow scenarios: Retirement with revenue and Retirement without revenue (scrapping). When you create a worklist, you have to make entries needed for posting the mass retirement (such as the posting date).
You are still required to assign the standard tasks listed below to the Asset Accounting organizational unit that you defined, or to a position/job belonging to it, or to an SAP user:
· Correct worklist
· Release worklist

Derived depreciation on retirement of Asset

Hi
I have configured the derived depreciation and entry is getting generated for the depreciation posting. But for retirment of asset derived depreciation is not getting calculated.
Anyone put some suggetiion for this issue.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Use of derived depreciation area is to findout the values of assets as per diff valuation, this valuation might be mathematical formula based, which is based on other dep areas.
Dep areas, which are used in derived dep area, needs to have the same currency maintainance.
The functionality of derived dep area:
1) Only dep rates might be diff from one area to another area, in this case only derived dep areas will get values in to it.
2) but where as acquisition, there would not be any value in this area, only in the case of full (100%) use of values from dependent areas used......
Thanks,

AA624 error message while retiring an asset

Hi all,
We just upgraded our system to ECC6. Our patch level is at 604. My user is trying to retire an asset however he is getting error aa624. I have looked OSS all the program corrections regarding this message are already in our system as the patch level is 604. The depreciation in this book does not have any special depreciation so special depreciation settings does not apply here. We also do not want to just modify the congi settings to "All values allowed", it does n't make sense. Please advise if anyone has come across this error and has a solution for this error.
Regards.
Ibungo

Hi Ibungo,
1. Do you have the "new Depreciation calculation" active? Do you get the erro also in AW01N if you simulate a recalculation of values? If yes please check AW01_AFAR (the old depr. calculation).
If yes: Please check if the transactions have been posted bevor activation of the "new Depreciation calculation" (and now you wold like to retire after activation of the new depr. calc).
2. Please check the following notes:
1114392
1025126 point 1
3. Dou you get error message AC 435 if you call tr. OAYO. In this case note 810789 is relecant.
4. Once I hahe a case where the reason was that ANLB-PERFY and T090NA-XDAILY was not conform.
Example: ANLB-PERFY is 365 and T090NA-XDAILY is empty.

Unable to retire group asset

Hi Experts,
I am having problem with group asset retirement. Differences exist between the individual asset and group asset. Although my individual asset NBV is all zero, the group asset still has some value. How should i configure so that whenever my individual asset is zero, the group asset is also zero (so that I can retire the asset completely)
Truely appreciate some advise. Thanks.

Hi
Firstly it is important you refer the note 371534 for information.
The correction code is obvioulsy in your system already.
Please check you run a fiscal year change (RAJAWE00) to year 2009.
Check : transaction code OAAQ and see what is the closed fiscal year?
(If issue pending, please. check Asset Capitalization date in this case)
FYI,
Please double check the following data whether these correspond
to the valid values via SE16 :-
1. T093B > Closed Year
2. T093C > Transfer date
3. T093C > Current Fiscal Year
With regards to the above, you will have to ensure that the
T093B > Closed Year is in line with T093C > Transfer date and
T093C > Current Fiscal Year is later than T093C > Transfer date.

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).
Thanks,
Srinu

Retire a Asset(Device)

hi all,
I am trying to retire a device(Asset). please let me know how the asset and device are linked.
are is there any way to retire a devie.
i am trying to retire using BAPI_ASSET_RETIRMENT_POST
with regards,
Sumanth

Hi,
if you go via AS02 in the depreciation area and make a double click you see the "change over year"
F1-Help:
"..the system automatically sets the year, based on the specifications in the respective changeover method..."
The system set this changeover date acc. to your first settings. If you later change the depreciation start date, the system don't automatically reset the "change over year".
Do not hesitate if you have further questions.

Depreciation On Retired Fixed Assets

Need assistance in troubleshooting an error reported during depreciation process. Error occurs when starting the process "GAINS/LOSS" section of the run. It reports error in CCID for a particular asset which has been retired due to sales. We've checked already checked all set-up relating to depreciation & retirement, which looks ok. Process goes through without error when we "unretire" the asset.
Any suggestions on what else to look out for?

Hi
Th reason for this is that retirement (scrapping) is calculated
as netbook value - less planned depreciation from the start fiscal year
until date of retirement) disregarding depreciation runs for the
period
Note 1162647 it does not explain this particular scenario
but in general refers that retirement is based on calculation on
planned annual values
Example:
Fixed asset values
start fiscal year 2008 (start 01/01/2008) is 1200
the useful life is 24 months = 50 to be depreciated per month
last depreciation run was for period 01/2008 , meaning the
netbook value was after that 1150 =(1200 - 50)
Then post retirement (total scrap) on 01/06/2008
The system will do retirement for the values calculated for the year
950 = (1200- 250 ) being 250 = 50 * 5 months (from start fiscal year
until date of retirement)
The depreciations will also being calculated and executed from
start fiscal year until date of retirement)
If this is not the case, I am afraid that you have to log a message on Sap portal for the assistance.
