Reverse Unplanned Depreciation

Hello Gurus,
The business is trying to close the Fixed Assets Year and before doing that they want to reverse unplanned depreciation for an asset. Can someone kindly advice how this could be performed? Is there a standard tcode to do so?
Thanks in advance!

Hi:
You can do that using ABS0. This is the only way to reverse unplanned depreciation. Create a new entry with ABSO and a transaction type which is the opposite of the one you are using . Enter then the same values in depreciation areas you put for your unplanned depreciation. e.g If you have posted your unplanned depreciation with transaction type '600' (debit transaction), create a transaction type 'Z00' 'Reverse unplanned depreciation' with 'credit transaction' and use it in ABSO transaction. Hope it will help you.

Unplanned depreciation error

Hi
When i try to post unplanned depreciation for the transaction type 640 system is showing the following error
Posting with trans.type 640 not possible (No acquisition posted)
Message no. AA324
Diagnosis
Transaction type 640 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.
Can any one help me in this regard.

How to reverse posting made into unplanned depreciation

Dear Colleagues,
Kindly give me hints on how to reverse posting made into unplanned depreciation of a particular Asset.
I posted unplanned depreciation on an Asset : Generator for instance but i want to reverse such posting. Though we I posted, it doesnt generate a posting document but came out with a number 5 for insatnce.
Thanks for your quick response

Hello,
The posting of manual and unplanned depreciation into FI-AA is posting a memo, which is posted into FI with the RAPOST2000 run. This document can only be reversed when not posted into FI (and can only be done in the same FY / period).
If such posting is already taken into FI, please create copy a new transaction type changing it to debit and post the reverse with the new transaction type in the current FY.
I hope this helps.
Best regards,
Suresh Jayanthi.

Reverse a posted unplanned depreciation

Hello,
I have created a unplanned depreciation action of an asset by using ABBA and posted the unplanned depreciation by AFAB.
Later, I found that this asset should not post any depreciation. Can I ask are there any ways to correct this mistake action?
Many thanks
Sunny

Hello,
I have the following case:
There is Unplanned depreciation posted in the previus years and the users wants to make Write-up.
After Write-up (transaction 730) with the proper amount on 31.12.2010 the system recalculate Ordinary depreciation in December.
This recalculation is posted via AFAB in 12.2010 but the users complain and do not want to recalcuate Ord. depreciation.
The question is:
Is there a way to post Write-up (730) without to recalculate Ordinary depreciation.
I have tried to make some changes in the depreciation key (the base value) but I can not succeed.
Also I have tried to to use ABAA with Z* transaction type to debit Unplanned depreciatino but the result is the same.
Thank you in advance,
Silvia

Unplanned depreciation in FI Fixed Assets does not post to FI-GL

We used transaction ABAA (unplanned depreciation) movement typ 640 to post a depreciation amount - The document has been posted in the AA module ( it is now showing against the Asset in the transaction Asset Explorer transactions AW01N and AB03) however we do not manage to get it posted to FI and consequently have a reconciliation difference between the value in the AA module and the FI-GL.
Can anybody please give advise how we can correct this?
We tried following so far:
(1) post the unplanned depreciation document using transaction AFAB - depreciation posting run.
No documents created.
The message log displays "You want to run the next planned run of the depreciation posting run in period 014. However, the last planned posting run was already performed for period 014."
Than tried to execute the transaction with selection 'repeat' , 'restart', 'unplanned depreciation run': no documents posted either ......
(2) reverse the unplanned depreciation document using transaction AB08
This failed; the system reports following
"No FI document was generated for the asset transaction" and subsequently after clicking the 'post'button' an error"No unique header information transferred into Accounting
Message no. RW001
Diagnosis: The interface into Accounting requires:
Header data
Item data
Currency data
The header data is missing, or several items were transferred.
System Response
Processing of the data in the Accounting interface is not possible.
Procedure
This is a system error of the application which was called up
So..............No idea how to get rid of this document.
Can anybody help?
Kind Regards,
Arjan

Hi Suresh,
Thanks for you feedback.
I had already tried your suggestion; it was the actions which I mentioned under the point (1) in my message.
The system did not generate any FI document, this is exactly the unexpected problem that I am trying to solve.
Any further suggestions?
Kind Regards,
Arjan

Unplanned depreciation

Hi All,
I have posted the unplanned depreciation thru ABAA and in AW01n, i can see the unplanned depreciation with the posted amount.
Now i want to reverse this posting. I am trying it thru AB08 for that asset but it says No FI document is posted and hence no reversal is possible.
But I want to remove that amount from the UNplanned depreciation of this Asset.
I also tried to write-up the asset with Trans Type 730 thru T.Code- ABZU but it says this Trans Type for Write-up is not allowed.
OR
Shall I post the unplanned and then reverse the posted FI document to resolve. Help me out.
how to solve this issue and finally i am looking at the option of the asset write up this amount but I think this will be writtenup from the Ordinay Deprn but not from Unplanned.
Please help me on this, points are assured.
Thanks and regards,
S Sq

Your this suggestion is really helpful. My client requirement is also that it should look into other ordinary depreciation and since my multilevel has APC-unplanned.
How can this be resolved.
Eg
APC = 10000
UL = 5 yrs
Dep per yr = 10000/5= 2000
Second yr Unplanned dep posted 5000
so total dep is 7000 now system should do 3000/4
Pl help
Thanks

Posting Unplanned Depreciation when asset net book value is zero

We recently transferred some assets from one company code to another. However, when they transferred, the depreciation all reversed out YTD.
We are now trying to post the YTD depreciation back in under the original company code, but when we try posting unplanned depreciation, the following error message appears -
"In area 01, you can only post manual dep. up to the amount 0.00"
I believe this is because the asset does not have any net book value now.
Any suggestions on how to resolve this?
Many thanks,

Hi Susan,
do you have the option to reverse the transfer postings? If so, you could specify another period control for transfer postings (such as fiscal year start, etc.) in your depreciation key, with which you can influence how much depreciation is left back respectively transferred.
It is correct that you can´t post an unplanned depreciation on the sending asset now, because the net book value would go below zero. As unplanned depreciation does not influence the ordinary depreciation in the year of posting, this value below zero can not be adjusted with a reduction of planned ordinary depreciation.
I am wondering which effect you´d like to have on the sending asset. Did you post a complete retirement? If so, there should be no APC left which you can depreciate on the sending asset. And as the net book value is zero already, which effect do you want to get? You have to keep in mind that the non-depreciated APC will be continued to depreciate (normally) on the receiving asset. But maybe I misunderstood the problem here ...

Markus

How to accout unplanned depreciation for group assets

Friends,
Unplanned depreciation is accounted for group assets few years ago.This is for special depreciation areas.
Now i would like to reverse this amount as write up unpalnned depreciation, but system is throwing eror message that: This function is not possible for group assets.
OR
The issue what we are facing is special dep areas has one cent as -ve acquisition due to which we are unable to deactivate the asset. This one cent was accounted as unplanned dep few years ago. How do we make the APC as zero when it has -ve APC in special dep areas.
pl, suggest how to go about this.
Thank
NNS

Hi,
This is not possible in the standard and this is not a from SAP intended and provided solution. Therefore I ask you to be really careful and test it bevore on a test system. (and perhaps to discuss this with your SAP consultant)
The workaround to remove the group asset from table ANLB-ANLGR from the asset could be done by creating your own program.

Asset unplanned depreciation posted wrongly

you can reverse posted depreciation by using OASV, but be VERY careful
that you reverse the FI and CO postings.

Post manual/unplanned depreciation in previous period

Dear Experts,
I really appreciate for your advices on the following issue.
I have posted depreciation up to period 9, 2010. However, there's an unplanned depreciation journal that was missed to be posted on period 8, 2010. Therefore, I tried to create the unplanned depreciation journal on period 8, 2010 (t-code ABAA).
When I tried to execute the depreciation (t-code AFAB) on period 8, 2010 with Repeat, Restart, and Unplanned Posting Run, the depreciation could not be posted. Then I tried to execute the depreciation on period 9, 2010 with Repeat Posting Run and the unplanned depreciation posted through ABAA on period 8, 2010 is posted on period 9, 2010.
I have an objective to post the the unplanned depreciation on period 8, 2010 instead of period 9, 2010 even though the depreciation has been posted up to period 9, 2010.
I really appreciate for your advices on how to post unplanned/manual depreciation on previous period or if there is any other work around available for this matter.
Thank you.
Best regards,
Frans Sunarja

Hi Frans
You have 3 options
Option 1 SAP recommended, but too cumbersome
You can reverse the depreciation posting using ABF1
refer this thread for more details
Unable to post depreciation- Error AA730
Option 2
Else, pass a manual JV to shift the depreciation from current month to previous month.... You can remove the auto posting tick in FS00 for depreciation for the time being
The JV shall be Dep a/c Dr and a Balance sheet a/c credit in Previous period AND opposite entry in current period... This balance sheet account shall be clubbed with Accum Dep a/c in your FSV (financial statement version)
Option 3
Same as option 2.... Use T code OASV to pass this JV
Use Accum Dep a/c instead of a balance sheet account... OASV will allow you to pass JV into recon account

Error when posting unplanned depreciation

Hello,
When posting an unplanned depreciation we are facing an error "In area 01 you can post manual dep upto the amount 0.00".
I checked the depreciation area and in it when for unplanned depreciation changed the setting to postive values but the error persists. I also tried all values and still the error persists. I also checked the transaction type 640 and there also if I made changes to allow postive values the error still persists.
I also want to mention that is not happening if I used another asset belonging to another asset class.
Please let me know if there is something else I am missing out.

Incorrect Planned Depreciation after posting unplanned depreciation

Hello Everyone,
We have encountered a case whereas an asset acquired in April 2008 with 5 years useful life was planned to be fully depreciated in period 2 of 2009. Below are the details and postings done:
1 - NBV -> 1,056,143.00
2 - Posted Write-up -> 18,054.00
3 - Posted Unplanned depreciation -> 1,038,992.23- (the system actually issued that only the amount of 835,445 can be posted as unplanned dep. In order to bypass this, user changed the dep key to MANU then changing it back after the unplanned posting)
4 - Posted Ordinary Dep for Period 1 of 2009 -> 19,892
5 - Planned Ordinary Dep for Period 2 of 2009 -> 15,312.77-
Once the amount of 15,312.77 is posted, the asset will have Zero NBV.
*My question is: Why did the system posted the 15,312.77 in period 2 only and not spread the amount until 2013 since the asset's useful life is for 5 years (until 2013).
We have tried recalculation of values and the planned depreciation remains the same for period 2.
Hope someone can help.
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Cholo

Hello Vinod,
Period control is 004 which is configured in AFAMP having 01 - Pro rata at period start date for Acquisition, Acquisition in the following year, Retirement and trasfer. Does it have anything to do with the start of depreciation?
Also, when we adjust the ord dep start date to < April 26, the original planned depreciation is not affected for the current FY but only the next FY and moving forward.
For example:
Asset worth 12,000 to be depreciated in 10 years
1 - Alrready in period 3 and 200 has been posted
2 - Posted unplanned dep of 800
3 - Total planned dep for this year did not change (1,200)
4 - System calculated for current year depreciation 1200 (planned) + 800 (unplanned) = 2000
5 - And for the next years 12,000 - 2,000 = 10,000 / 9 years
Should it not be that that 12,000 - 1,000 (200 planned + 800 unplanned) = 11,000 / 9 years and 9 months?
It seems that the unplanned depreciation affected the depreciation computation of the asset only in the next FY.

Asset Unplanned Depreciation posting for period 12 where ord dep is posted

Dear Experts,
I have a requirement where i want to post Unplanned/Manual depreciation for asset for period 12 where i have already posted ordinary depreciation and now when i am trying to change the post key i am getting a message "Enter a depreciation key with 'depreciation by days'
Is their any possibility where i can post some depreciation amount manually or through unplanned depreciation for period 12 without disturbing Planned depreciation amount.
Regards,
Rahul

No,
a depreciation key with 'depreciation by days' you can only change in a depreciation key with 'depreciation by days'
This is set-up in the depreciation key
This is the help:
Depreciation calculation to exact day
Specifies that the system calculates depreciation to the day.
Use
Any period control methods entered in the depreciation key are ignored for the entire useful life of the asset. This applies to all transactions (acquisitions, retirements, and transfers). The system always uses the asset value date as the depreciation start date.
The "depreciation to the day" function becomes active for an asset as soon as the asset has a corresponding depreciation key and the asset is capitalized (posted to). Once this takes place, it is no longer possible to switch off this function for the asset, even if you change the depreciation key. On the other hand, it is not possible to activate this function for an asset after it has already been capitalized using a different depreciation key.

Unplanned Depreciation not reducing Base Value

Hi all,
Assets created in SAP. At a point, these assets had stopped
depreciating in sub-ledger but seems as if depreciation continued to be
provided for directly in the GL manually (via a jnl).
User wishes to re-capture the revised APC and Accumulated Depreciation
values back into the asset sub-ledger so that SAP will automatically
depreciate the assets according to their remaining useful life.
User has used a Write-up transaction to load the APC value. After
write-up posted, depreciation ise being calculated as expected. To get
the Accumulated Depreciation value into SAP, the user has posted
Unplanned Depreciation (TTY Type 640). However, when this is posted,
depreciation is not being calculated evenly over remaining useful life
of asset. For Year 1, depreciation is being calculated from Write-Up
(APC) values ONLY, and the Unplanned Depr (representing Accumulated
Depr) has NOT been taken into account. Unplanned Depr is only taken
into account from Year 2. This is leading to dis-proportionate depr
values in comparison from Year 1 to subsequent years across the
remaining life of the asset.
Have been testing period controls, and depr key set up but no luck.
Any ideas or suggestions will be much appreciated.

Dear Dattatray,
The issue here is not with the fact that no depreciation values have posted. The issue is with the values that have been posted. Let me illustrate by way of example.
Asset start date for depr: Changed to 01.01.2008
Useful life of asset: 3 years, 4 months (40 months)
Write up of asset posted March 2008: EUR 135,492.18
Unplanned Depr of asset posted March 2008 EUR 93,605.12
Therefore, Net Book Value = EUR 41,887.06
Depreciation run happened in March after ABAA entry.
Expectation:-
Based on this NBV of EUR 41,887.06 you would expect depr to post at EUR1,047.18 per month (41,887.06 / 40 months) over the remaining life of asset. In this case, 3 months would be caught up in March as asset depr start date is 01.01.2008, and balance of EUR1,047.18 to be posted per month until asset written off 3 years and 4 months down the line.
What is happening in SAP:-
Depreciation for FY 2008 is only being calculated on the write-up value of EUR 135,492.18 and not the NBV. Therefore, for FY2008, depreciation is being calculated at EUR 3,387.30 per month (EUR135,492.18 / 40 months).
If i look at FY2009, the Unplanned Depr value of EUR 93,605.12 is now taken into account. Therefore, NBV at start of FY2009 is Write up 135,492.18 less Unplanned Depr 93,605.12 less Depr in 2008 (12 months) 40,647.60 = NBV EUR1,239.46. This new NBV over remaining life which is now 28 months is EUR 44,27 per month, or EUR 531.19 for the year.
So in FY2008, Depr posted = EUR 40,647.60 (3,387.30 per month)
In FY2009, depr posted = EUR 531.19 (44.27 per month)
In FY 2010, depr posted = EUR 531.19 (44.27 per month)
In FY 2011, asset gets written off.
You can see that year 1 is highly inflated and Years 2 thru remaining life is smoothed. This is not correct. We would expect the depr to be smoothed every month from the start i.e. EUR 1,047.18 per month or 12,566.11 in FY2008, 12,566.11 in FY2009, 12,566.11 in FY 2010 and then written off in 2011.
I hope this helps to explain the current problem.
Thanks.

Unplanned depreciation ABAA

Hello Experts,
I use ABAA to devaluate an asset(unplanned dep) with value date at 01.01.2010, but the depreciation run still not run for 01.2010.
In AW01N, the column "Ord Dep" for all periods in 2010 still show the origianl depreciation value, but there is another column "Unplanned Dep" added in 01.2010.
Do I need to finish the depreciation run for 01.2010, the column "Ord Dep" for all periods in 2010 would reflect the new value which includes unplanned depreciation?
Is it also the same situation for write-up ABZU?
Thanks.
Claude

Hi Srinu,
Thanks for your prompt.
I want to post the write up value to 12.2009.
Therefore, in ABZU I try to set the Asset Value Date to 31.12.2009, with posting date and doc date as today, but an error say "Enter asset value date in the same year as posting date 28.01.2010".
Then I try to change the posting date to 31.12.2009, an error say"You cannot post write-ups" Message no. AA400.
I am using transaction type 700.
The asset is Capitalized on 25.08.2009
Thanks.
Claude
