Stop Future Depreciation

I am on SAP 4.7 and I need to be able to stop future depreciation on an asset, but not reverse the depreciation that has been applied so far. I have changed the depreciation key to 0000 and it will stop depreciation but it does a posting that reverses the depreciation that has been posted.
Thanks,
Toni

As Manish said, the shut down functionality is the best option. Just follow the below said guidelines....
Use AS02 - Change Asset, go to Time-Dependent and click on More interval. Then Click on Add Interval, insert the date from when the system should not calculate depr., press enter and now check the Asset Shut down indicator here. Do not change any Depr key or any other fields. This should allow you to serve your purpose.
If you need to shut down the depr for a period, then use two periods. The first one with period from the depr should not get posted with Shut down indicator checked and the second one with period till the depr shd not be posted with Shut down indicator unchecked.
Please revert in case you have any questions.
Regards,
Vinod

What is the best way to stop the depreciation of an asset

I had tried ticking the asset shutdown field, but it didn't works. I change the depreciation key , e.g. 0000-zero depreciation, it works, however i do not know what is the implication of doing this.

Hi,
No depreciation for a period of time
If you have an asset which would not be used for production purposes for next six months as the plant is being closed.
Therefore you don't want to retire the asset and neither do you want depreciation to be carried out during these six months period.
Once the plant is opened, from then on, you want to execute the depreciation run.
You can utilize the Asset Shutdown feature on the Time-dependent tab of the asset master record.
Select the Asset Shutdown checkbox - create a time interval - Save.
If you cannot find the checkbox, it could be hidden :-
In AS02 click Environment -> Screen Layout -> Master data
Select the Screen Layout and click Logical Field groups
Select 3 - Time-dependent and click Field group rules
Tick Opt, Mnno and Sbno - Save
Optionally,
you can set the Depreciation key in the Deprecation Area Tab.
You can also change the depreciation key to '0000' (No depreciation and no interest) for each of your depreciation books. Just make sure you have run depreciation up through the current month before doing so. When you are ready to put the asset back into service, reset the keys to their original values. The system will calculate no depreciation during the months where you have the key set to '0000'.

Why i cannot run future depreciations at present?

I have capitalized an asset on 30th december 2008 and the next depreciation for this asset is in jan 2009. its using straight line method.
however when i tried to run a depreciation on 2nd jan 2009 for the period 1 and financial year 2009, the system says could not find data agrees with the selection made.
does this mean i have to wait till end of january to post the first depreciation? why cant i run the depreciation for jan 2009 in 2nd jan itself?

There are 2 things to look to:
Open the new fiscal year: AJRW - Fiscal Year Change
The year 2007 should be close see tc OAAQ - Entire Company Code when not closed run AJAB - Execute
see for more infromation about the closing https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/wiki?path=/display/erpfi/asset+accounting

Palm Desktop has a conduit switch program to move back and forth. To go back go to Start-->Programs/All Programs-->Palm-->PIM Conduit Sync--> SYnc with Palm Desktop. Click on that last one and it should move back to Palm Desktop for you.

Stop Depreciation of an Asset

Hi Gurus,
We have an asset that was capitalized last March 2011with useful life of 3years. To be specific, the item is a television set.
Goods receipt was transacted last March for this asset with ttype 120 with an entry of Dr. Asset and Cr. GR/IR Clearing Account.
2 months of depreciation were already posted last April and May 2011.
The problem is that the department head told our accounting dept that this item should not be treated as an asset and should be charged to a personal expense.
Kindly advise on how we can stop the depreciation this month June and the succeeding months. Pls advise also on how can we correct the previous postings that were already made on this asset (GR and depreciation) given that the books for the previous months were already closed.
Thanks,
Ellicec

Dear:
Please check if reversal of the Past Depreciation(posted) is possible through Write-Up ABZU - Miscellaneous is the transaction used for Write-Up of past depreciation.
Transaction effects will be like
Accumulated Dep A/C Debit
Deprecation exp a/c A/C Credit
For more info please check link

OASV can give credit to Acc dep posted for an asset class but not to a particular asset.

To stop depreciation for 2 months

Hi All,
I have one asset capitalized in August and the depreciation start date is 01-Aug-2010. Now the asset will be used actually
from November 2010. I want to stop the depreciation calculation from 1st August to 31st October 2010. I can't use asset shutdown feature and I can't change the depreciation start date to a later date. What may be the possible solution to stop planned dep. calculation for the specified period.
Regards,
Santanu

Hi Santanu
To realize your business scenario, you set additional depreciation intervals in depreciation area by going through following steps:
1, AS02 -> Tab : Depreciation -> double click on depreciation area
2, click on button u2018more intervalu2019 -> click on button u2018add intervalu2019 -> input 2010.10.01 to field u2018From-Date of New Intervalu2019
3, in first period from 1900.01.01 to 2010.09.30, use depreciation key u20180000u2019
In second period from 2010.10.01 to 9999.12.31, use original depreciation key.
Hope itu2019s helpful
Best regards

Is it possible to stop depreciation for a certain period?

Hi all,
I am wondering if it is possible, and how it is done if yes, to stop the depreciation. For example in the 2nd year of an asset the user wants no depreciation on that asset for 5 months, after which the asset starts depreciating again. Also life is prolonged for this 5 months.
Thanks for ideas!
D.

Hi,
You can Use Shutdown check box and give the shutdown interval in the Time dependent data tab of Asset master.

Stop depreciation and interest on one depreciation area

We have area 01 depreciation and area 70 - which for us is a managerial (statistical) depreciation posting with interest. When this depreciation and interest is posted the offset is to a contra account so when looking at the FI side it nets to zero. The asset is owned by the leasing company and we indicate on the time dependant tab which operating company is getting the statistical depreciation and interest.
Our issue is the they 'transfer' these assets to another operating company with a fair market value. The asset itself does not leave the leasing company and true FI depreciation is not touched. Since we need to show a new value for the asset for the statistical depreciation and it gets a new depreciation schedule we found creating a sub asset and doing ABSO to 'write up' area 70 with the FMV of the transfer amount allows us to start the statistical depreciation to the transfered operating company with no issues. The issue is stopping the area 70 depreciation and interest on the main asset - to the first operating company.
I tried putting a scrap value equal to the remaining book value on the main asset in depreciation area 70 and that did stop the depreciation - but it's still trying to post interest for the next period and beyond.
Ideas? Options you guys can think of?
Thanks
Karla

Hi,
a) Copy the retirement transaction to a new one and restrict it to post only in area 70. You can then completly dispose the asset in that area.
b) Use/create a depreciation key in that area that has Shutdown = Yes. In the time dependant tab you can then set the asset to shutdown and it will stop depreciating.
Kind regards

Can depreciation be stopped mid way?

I want to be able to depreciate a fixed asset half way and then make it stop afterwards. Is there any way possible to do so in B1 2005?
Choosing "No Depreciation" is not helpful as it tends to reverse all the depreciations which have been posted so far.
Any suggestions?

One scenario is where the asset is not fully depreciated but it can't be used further by the company, in such a case i want to stop the depreciation.
The company also does not wish to retire the asset either.

Depreciation Stop

Hi,
I want to stop the depreciation of a asset for a period on one year, how can i do that?
regards,
Gayani

Hi gayani,
Go to Asset Master deprec. area tab
Double click on Deprecian key line
Select more Intervels
There you can define intervals for calculation depreciation.
Example
You can allocte an asset to a cost center in the asset master record. You can define specific time intervals for this allocation. You can display the time intervals that are available, and you can select intervals for maintenance. If the allocation changes, and you want to define a new interval, as of a given point in time, you first have to define the new time interval. The system then processes the data for the new time interval, and takes over the original allocation. The system then offers the new interval for maintenance.
Example for maintaining a time-dependent
1. Enter new interval
07/01/1992 - 12/31/9999
Hope it will clear.

Freeze the partial depreciation for asset

Dear Expert,
We have special scenario for asset depreciation. In China, the assetu2019s retirement need waiting for government inspection & approval. The requester to do the physical scrap when we got the approval, and then the asset accountant will retire this asset in SAP system.
In the period of waiting of approval, the asset needs to stop the depreciation. We can shutdown or change depky 0000 for depreciation freeze, but these methods will freeze all NBV which mean the entire asset has not depreciation, but we think freeze the partial NBV and the remainder NBV still has depreciation in future.
For example,
Asset A - 01/31/2009 GAV $100 AD $50 NBV $50
This asset needs the partial scrap for $20 on 02/01/2009.
Asset A - 02/01/2009 GAV $100 AD $50 NBV $30 * 20$ will be froze.
Just need to your help, What method can carry out this result in SAP?
Thanks.

Hi,
You can use the cutoff value key and assign it in the depreciation key and in turn assign it in asset master,in your case the cutofff key would be defined as 20%. (if you want you can create a new dep key and assign it to the specific asset)
doing this will make sure that after NBV of the asset is $20, depreciation will not be carried out.
hope this clarifies youe query.

No depreciation after down payment of asset

Hi,
I am making a PO and with that reference i am making a down payment through F-48 for a particular asset.
This asset is getting capitalised and depreciation is getting calculated as soon as down payment is made.
This should not be the case.
Any clue on how to stop calculating depreciation at the time of down payment against fixed asset.
Regards,
Parin

hi,
well if i enter only PO number then the asset number is getting picked up automatically.
thus getting capitalised and depreciaiton is calculated.

Parin
