You can easily change the account determination of asset class . There is an OSS note regarding the correction of issue which you will face while changing account determination for which there are already posted fixed assets
Error message AC476 upon change of account in AO90 can be customized now
via transactions OBMSG...Application Area-AC

Under certain circumstances, it may still be necessary to make a change
to this account.By implementing this note, the above error message is
replaced by a warning message.Following account maintenance, you may
need to carry out manual intracompany transfers in FI in accordance with

Difference between standard SAP asset report and BW report

Hi
We are finding differences between the standard Asset report and the BW report which is extracted via standard SAP extractor. Could anyone guess what would be the reason for this?? I ran the report - AW01N
Please revert at once as this is very urgent.
Regards,
prasad

Hi Prasad,
A number of reasons could be responsible for this. Check the following:
1. If some posting were done in R/3 just before running your BW report, you may have to re-extract the data into BW as this would no longer be current. The thumb rule is to always allow at least <b>45</b> minutes to <b>1</b> hour between when the last transaction in R/3 was posted before re-extraction. This is to allow SAP Logical Unit of Work(LUW) to have been committed to the R/3 database.
2. There may have been some restrictions on the selection variables in the BW query. Check the Query Designer, just to be sure there are no restrictions.
I hope the above help.
Do not forget to award the points please.

Jacob

User Field Selections with SAP Asset Report RAGITT_ALV01

Hi,
We are running RAGITT_ALV01 (Asset History Sheet) report and wish to utilize some user fields (ANLU) in data selection. How might this be done? I find when using "List Assets" under "Settings" tab the asset number , sub asset numbers and associated user fields remain. However when using "Main Numbers Only" or "Group Totals Only" under this same tab, sub asset number and associated fields are not to be found and accumulations already include all assets with a given asset number with no opportunity to apply user field data selection criterion which would eliminate some assets included .
Thank you for your time, harold

Hi,
Sorry to have taken so long to reply, and thank you for suggestion. We already have our "Z" copy of this program and have been processing from this for some period of time. The problem occurs when trying to apply user fields (ANLU) to data selection criterion for reporting options "Main Numbers Only" and "Group Totals Only". Asset numbers (main and sub) disappear during R3 data base processing never to be seen intact again. Have traced this through and may have solution for "Main Numbers Only" option. Testing is occurring on this "work around". However the third option "Group Totals Only" solution still evades capture. If you have any more ideas please pass along to me. Again thank you for your time and effort. harold

Question on SAP Asset Accounting

Dear Friends,
We are working on a new enhancement for our project. In this development we have to implement parallel ledger with Asset Accounting. We have already Asset Accounting implemented, and two months of depreciation already posted. The current COD is now used by 4 company codes across 4 countries.
Our Requirement.
1. We have 4 ledgers. with OL, we have US for US GAAP, and two Nonleading ledger LS, LT for Australia, Local reporting. The requirement is the Asset posting happening in Asset environment should hit all the ledgers( OL, US, LS, LT)
Solution planned - We thought to create a new COD and assign the depreciation areas with the ledger groups . BUT WE ARE NOT SURE HOW CHANGING THE COD IN THE SYSTEM IN THE SYSTEM WILL IMPACT.
2. We have another requirement. for any acquisition of Low Value Asset, we have to
For Australian reporting the entry should be
Asset A/C ....... DR
to Vendor A/C
For US reporting the same transaction entry should be
Asset Expenses A/C ........... DR
To Vendor.
Solution Planned - We planned to create two different Depreciation Area for LVA transaction and for one LVA depreciation area we will maintain Asset Account in APC account and in another LVA depreciation Area we will maintain Asset Expenses GL as APC account. BUT not sure how the system will react.
Please reply the above doubt. We are in a very critical position in our project.
Regards
Ranjan82

HI ,
For point 1
You can define depreciation area and in Integration wth GL you can define the Traget ledger group of posting for each depreciation as below screen shot
For Point 2 you can create a depreciation key with 100 % which will depreciate asset fully in same here and will book as expese . I have done this for many conutries and it works without effecting any other thing in system .
Please test these in you test system and let me know if you need more help .
many Thanks

SAP Asset memo value

Hello,
While we specify memo value per company code/depreciation area, the exclusion list is based on the asset class (Asset classes without memo value).
The above setting could conflict - in a sense some company codes may require exclusion and some others may not want it. While we can manage it through the asset master record, please let me know if any of you have faced a similar situation and if there are any other way to manage this conflict.
Regards,
Ram

Hi,
If the settings are in conflict with rules on company code level oar asset class level you have another options:
1) On company code level: Transaction OAYI - memo value.
2) On derpeciation key level: You can store a cut off value key in your depr. key. (define it in transaction. ANHAL )
3) On Asset level: You can define a scrap value in the areas as amount or percentage rate.

Hi,
In service procurement, you need to create a service master(AC03) , you need to enter valuation class & in OBYC, you just assign need to assign GR/IR Clearing (service) with G/L account only & no valuation class for service assignment requires in OBYC setting for service.
Service order or purchase order created with Acc. assignment ' K' and Item category 'D' , the system automatically pick UOM is "1" activity unit in Item Overview and in item details you need to maintain the service master ,UOM, quantity & price /unit and then G/L account with cost center .
During SES(ML8N), you are just recognizing vendor performed service where you can have cost object(cost center) with service master with quantity etc.....No FI document created after creating/maintaining the Service Entry Sheet in ML81N but once you release the Service Entry Sheet, then only FI document created.
If GR valuated for service procurement: You will have accounting entries:
During SES release:
Service account: Dr
GR/IR(service) :Cr
During IR
GR/IR(service) :Dr
Vendor A/C: Cr
Service tax A/C: Dr

Error in Asset Value carry forward to next year

As a regular periodic process of Month/Year closing activities in SAP, Asset Year 2015 was opened and then closes the year 2014 and carried forward the Asset values to the year 2015. But unfortunately some of the Asset value had not been transferred to the year 2015. As a result, Depreciation had not been charged for those Asset for the year 2015. Need to transfer the Asset value to the current year immediately. Can any one help me regarding the problem ? The APC Start value is showing in the year 2014 but its not showing in 2015.
The Closing value of Current APC of year 2014 does not match with the Opening value of the APC Start, so what should be the possible reasons for that ?

Hi Erika,
I did that on last January 2015. First i use the T-code: AJRW for the Fiscal Year Change and then T-code: AJAB - for Year end-closing Asset Accounting as i did that for last 4 years. Though there was as error message indicating error in depreciation calculation, our consultant assured me that that will not create any problem. The Error was like below:
600981 0 Secretariat Table 2014 Error in dep. calculation

Asset Report by Location wise with address & other details

Hi,
Can any one guide me any reports are available for Asset Report by location wise, address and
other details.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
GB

Hi Govind,
I have solution for your requirement.
Go to Tcode OAVI
Create new entries.
Difine a name for the sort version and enter description for the same.
Choose fields for display in standard SAP asset reports.
For your case enter table name ANLAV field names MENGE, STORT, and KOSTL. etc
Here you can choose various other fields also.
Then use this sort version while runnnig the SAP standard asset reports.
By using this sort version you can able to to see the quantity, location and cost center fields available during any any asset balances report. So take a printout of the asset balances report S_ALR_87011964 - Asset Balances by Asset Class along with the above fields and go for physical verification
Note: This development you can directly do it in your production system
This will defenetely fix your requirement.
Add Point*s, if problem resolved.
Thanks,

Hi,
Is there a standard SAP asset report with the field of vendor and manufacturer #?
Thanks,
Teo

Hi
you can got the vendor and manufacturer name in T code
S_ALR_87011964
For that you have to create a sort variant by using T code OAVI
There you have to put the vendor and manufacturer table name
Then when you excute the above mention report in the layout field you can find vendor and manufacturer option
Note- To find the Vendor and manufacturer name in the report you have to maintained that in Asset master

BarCode Reader Connection with sap

HI,
Our client is using a bar code reader machine which is build on pocket pc technology. Now they want that when barcode on some item like a table is scaned by that machine its extra information will be read from sap asset master data. like to whom this table is belong.
Now is there any standard connector through which we can communicate between sap and bar code pocket pc.
Thanks,

Hi Szymon,
Please compare your settings with the "Administrator_Guide.pdf", chapter 7.3 Connecting SAP ERP to SAP Business One integration for SAP NetWeaver (page 44 -59).
In your B1i SLD entry for your second ECC connection, check segment RFCP:
The value in field "programID" must be unique for each ECC connection and equally maintained on ECC side (transaction SM59).
Please start the test connection in ECC (transaction SM59) and make sure, that you have an activated scenario in B1i with your ECC as sender system. Otherwise the RFCP test connection will fail.
You can also have a look into following discussion: RFCP Connection to B1iSN -
Registering Server Program

Scrapping asset

Hi i want to scrape an asset code is it possible in sap asset value is 10000 i want to scrape it with 10000 value. so that the value gets zero for this asset code.
Regards
Abhisekh

HI Abhishek,
ABAVN is the right TCode to Scrap an asset, under partial retirement just give percentage as 100!!!! All done.
Scrapping simply means loss from an asset.
So if u execute this Tcode. Debit entry will be post to Loss from Asset sale account and credit entry APC account.
For more clarity on accounts in which asset can post, please visit TCode AO90.
Thanks
