Running TCODE (AFAB) - Depreciation Run in Background - Error: Printer name

Hi SAP experts,
This is actually a basis technical question.
But the error occurred in the Depreciation Run.
When one of our users run this process in Background, she encountered an error 'Printer name not defined'.
But when I use my account, I was able to successfully run it with no errors.
I have checked SU01 and the default name of the printer (LP01) is both assigned to the users.
We are using SAP 4.6 (4.0B). I hope we could find solutions for this.
Thanks!

Hi,
Could you please check note 1292602.

Depreciation Run fails with out providing a proper error

Hi Experts
I have some where around 14,000 assets in my fixed assets master in SAP B1. Currently it takes 15 hours to run the depreciation. But from December after it runs for 15 hours it shows the status as Posting journal entries but after a while it fails the run saying the depreciation run has been failed and cancelled. But there is no error description. When i check the log file in the %temp% folder also there is no error given.
How can i solve this problem this is critical to our operation, please let me know the settings that i have to check and everything
Thanks & Regards
Kanishka Wickrama

Hi Gordon
When we ran the depreciation in November it was successful, but in December we added some where around 2,000 more assets. After that only the depreciation started failing again. So is there any criteria that i have to check in the database.and is there anything that i can do to speed up the depreciation run.
Do you know any other third party add-on that we can use to manage the fixed assets because currently i find it very hard to trouble shoot.
Thanks & Regards

AFAB DEPRECIATION ERROR (CO ACCOUNT ASSIGNMENT HAVE DIFFERENT PROFIT CENTERS)

Hello Every One
we had a user “ABC” who used to run this AFAB depreciation month end activity as a background job. and was working for her perfectly fine. But since she is no more with us. Now New users “123” and “546” when they run the same activity in the same manner it does not show a batch session created in SM35 list, because there are errors associated with the above 2 user names that I saw in the SM37 LOG which is the cause of making this activity to fail.
for User 123 it cancelled the job and error shows "CO ACCOUNT ASSIGNMENT HAVE DIFFERENT PROFIT CENTERS"
for user 345 it shows "Not all the documents in the last posting run were posted"
I will appreciate every one help as it is very crucial and month end activity
Thanks in Advance

Hi
Execute Afab with Repeat option, test mode and error analysis ON
It should tell which asset had problem. For the 1st error, your asset might have 2 co objects in it and both have different PC s.. See if it can be cchanged

Adding asset in the previous period and depreciation run

Hi Experts,
I want to know whether we can add an asset for the previous period and run the depreciation.
I will try explaining with an example.
Let us say,I forgot to add an asset and i want to add an asset now with date as 1st July 2008. Is it possible? If it is possible will the system calculate the depreciation from July or will it calculate from the date the asset has been added?
Please explain.
Thanks,
Sasidhar

Hi
It will allow you to add a new asset in the closed period with few conditions
Since you have given in your example as july 2008, check whether your FI year is open. Then check the asset period whether its opened are closed
If all the periods are not resticting you, you can go a head with adding an asset
Your depreciation will be calculated from the date of purchasing, that means only the calculationg will happen from that period and not the accounting entry
You will have only one planned depreciation from july to current period as per your example. So when your running the planned depreciation run for the current period, the entire depreciation will get posted now
You can do repeat run only for one period prior to the current planned period and not at any prior period
So with your example of july 2008, if your running AFAB monthly, repeat run may not work
Warm Regards

AFAB Depriciation Run

Dear Experts,
I had done,T Code:AFAB Depreciation Run.
Some Depreciation amount is posted wrongly in asset class or in asset.
so, i want to do right Depreciation and posting in asset.
and i want to do in & Depreciation posting in asset.
what i do ?
please guide me.
Thanks
jemes

Hi
If Depreciation is wrongly posted you can do Write Up using ABZU, but only if the Acquisition & Depreciation for that asset is previous fiscal years.
If the Acquisition & Depreciation Posted is of current fiscal year simply Reverse the Acquisition Amount.
Pass a JV Crediting the Asset which is wrongly depreciated and use Transaction Type 160 or 105 and Debit an AUC Asset using Transactio Type 100.
Then system will post adjustment entries which will be positive, then reduce the useful life and rerun the Depreciation using Repeat Run.Then the Asset value becomes Zero.
This will resolve your issue.

Venkat

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.

We run depreciate via tcode(AFAB) at 2007 Aug. But we met the following error message. Could you tell me which setting is incorrect. Thanks.
According to posting cycle, you should post period 001 next
Message no. AA 683
Diagnosis
You cannot post depreciation in the period specified, as this will miss out a posting period.
System Response
No posting can be made in this period.
Procedure
According to the posting cycle, you should post period 001 next. Either enter period 001, which corresponds to the posting cycle, or request an unplanned posting run explicitly for this parameter.

Error AAPO191 in AFAB: depreciation posting run

Hi,
I created a new depreciation area and customized the account determination on AO90. When running the AFAB (dep. posting run) the system issues the error AAPO 191 "Internal error in item 0000000000: asset row is not complete"
I checked the note 859617 which says the accumulated depreciation account must not be set as fixed asset reconciliation account.
As far as I know, these accounts have to be set as reconciliation accounts otherwise it will be open for manual postings leading to inconsistencies between FI-AA and FI-GL.
I checked transaction OAMK and it has some accounts in it (but not the ones with errors). Nevertheless, it has no option to include new accounts.
Can anyone help me out with this error?
Thanks in advance,
Paulo Siqueira

Hi Paulo,
this error is nearly always about wrong or missing account control in your account determination. Please check closely
note 7595 and verify if any account has been erroneously defined or is missing.
As per note 7595:
1. Areas to be posted in dialog   > T093-BUHBKT = 1
The balance sheet accounts and the accumulated depreciation accounts must be characterized as reconciliation accounts of account type   'A'. Down payment account KTANZA must also be a reconciliation
2. Areas to be posted periodically or areas only relevant to depreciation -> T093-BUHBKT = 2
Create the accounts of these areas as ordinary G/L accounts. They may not be reconciliation accounts.
Regards Bernhard
