Sub asset master

hello gurus,
what is the use with sub asset master? can't we create an asset with asset master? will we calculate dep. on asset or sub asset?
Pls clarify my doubts
N.M.B

If Main Asset is "Tractor" the "Trailor" becomes a sub-asset or the Farming equipment you attach to the tractor is Sub-asset.
If an asset can perform independently that is Main asset. If the asset has to be attched to some other asset for performing then this is a sub-asset.
Depreication is calculated at Main asset level which includes the sub asset depreciations.
reward if useful.

  • Copying the same interval to Sub-asset master

    Hi Friends,
    My client is using 4.6c Version. The main asset master is having two time intervals in the time dependent data tab. With reference to that main asset, when we are creating the sub asset master all the time intervals are automatically copying to sub asset. But they don't want to copy all the intervals and want to have only latest interval to subasset.
    I have tried the same thing in ECC 6.0, it is copying only the latest interval. But it is not in 4.6C. Any suggestions please..
    Thanks & Regards

    Have a look in the the field status settings from your asset, there you define these copy rules

  • Problem with the creation of asset master record

    Hi Gurus,
    i am having problem in creation of a new asset master with the use of existing man asset number and different asset sub number. I am trying to create the asset in the same company code but different depriciation area, but the system is not allowing me to do that. Is there a setting in the SPRO by which I can allow the use of creation of the asset number by using the already existing asset number with the new asset sub number. This is actually happening in the system for one type of equipments but not for other.
    Can any one tell me what settings are to be made to allow this for all containers.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    A sub asset master can be created with AS11 only.
    You cannot create a asset sub number under a main asset number, in the case, where different set of dep areas needs to be maintained.
    When you create a sub asset, all the dep areas will be copied to sub asset's master from main asset master. Since this set of dep areas cannot be different from main asset to sub asset.
    Hopw you understood this.
    Thanks,

  • Sub Asset No layout Change

    He Experts,
    My client req is --  when they  are trying to create sub-asset number for all Asset classes,
    depn.key, useful life & original depn. start date are not editable.
    Please advise me how to edit dep key and useful life in sub asset master.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    In transaction AO21 you can check the screen layout for mainnumbers and subnumbers. You have the options 'Required', 'Optional' and 'No'. In order for the field to have ready for input you need to choose at least 'Optional' and allow this for 'SbN' (subnumber).
    To check which screen layout is used in your asset class, you have to go to transaction OAYZ.
    Kind regards,

  • Created  "sub asset" with reference to DEACTIVATED Master asset

    Hi experts
    We are facing something strange in our system (ECC6 SP22)
    We have some Master assets whitch are DEACTIVATED.
    We just note that we have possibility to create "SUB ASSETS" (I don't know how to say it in english) by referece to DEACTIVATED master assets.
    Is this normal?
    We would like to this prohibited. How can we do??
    Thank you in advance.
    Kind Regards

    Hi,
    Yes, it is a SAP standard behaviour, where you can create sub assets under deavtivated main assets also.
    If you want to stop this, you need to write an user exit for transaction AS11 with the help of your ABAPer.

  • Delete Asset Master with Sub-Assets

    Hi Gurus,
    A client of mine has an Asset with out any values, but it has sub-assets under it with values and depreciation.
    Is it possible to delete the main asset and still have sub-assets? If not what is the way I can delete the main asset and still retain sub-assets?
    Thanks.
    regards,
    Raj

    Hi Gurus,
    Thanks for the replies.
    The user has in the mean time went ahead and deleted the main asset that did not have values, now we are able to only see the asset when we go to the report (asset balance report), but not able to see when we go to Display Asset (AS03).
    Is there any way we can undo this?
    Thanks.
    regards,
    Raj

  • Settlement of Investment Order - Auto creation of Sub asset for settlement

    < MODERATOR:  Message locked.  Please post this in the [ERP Financials - Asset Accounting|SAP ERP Financials  - Asset Accounting;. >
    Dear experts
    Request your help on Investment orders settlement.
    We are doing settlement of Investment orders to sub asset numbers, where sub assets are created well in advance.
    Our client want system to create sub asset numbers automatically, while doing the settlement of Investment orders itself.
    Is it possible ?, If possible, please let me know, what are the settings I need to do to meet this requirement.
    Thanks in advance
    S. Habib Pasha.

    Hiya,
    Go to IMG --> Controlling --> IO --> Actual Postings --> Settlement --> Automatic Generation of Settlement Rules.
    There is no SAP Standard created for settlements to sub-assets, so you'll need to create one using option 4 there "User-Defined Strategies for Automatic Generation ...".
    Once this is done, get an ABAP Developer to code the settlement rule by creating a custom project in that same transaction. The rule will be similar to the SAP Standard ones created in option 1 of the same node.
    Once this is done, create strategy sequences for this, and assign to Order Type(s).
    If your users can maintain a basic investment profile when creating the Order Master Data, the developer can be directed to pick that data (aka fields) for the creation of the subasset number.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers.

  • Creation of Asset Master in Goods Receipt

  • WBS in Asset Master

    Hi All,
    One Asset was mapped to WBS in Asset master at the time of creation (Origin tab in asset master). Now I want to de-link this mapping, or simply put remove/delete this WBS from asset master as client does not wish to settle the project to this Asset. This field is greyed out in AS02 and cant be changed directly. Any pointers on this this WBS can be removed from this mapping?
    Regards,
    Vaibhav

    The only time I've seen what you're describing be the actual case, is when the asset main numbers are the same - but different sub-numbers (appended 4-digit field).
    System can have main on the settlement rule, and actually settle to a sub-number instead (asset NOT on the settlement rule).
    This happens when the asset master data of the receiver (the one on the settlement rule) does not match the master data objects for the sender AuC (asset under construction) or perhaps an internal order.
    Scrutinize the master data for the asset on the settlement rule, comparing it to the sender and then to the one receiving the settled value.  I think you'll find the receiver on settlement rule is not a good match.  It may be possible to test this by inputting a deactivated date on the General tab of the sub-number (the one NOT on the settlement rule).  Then, a settlement error message should be thrown telling you there is no sub-number asset that can receive the settlement.
    It is coincidence that that sub-number has the WBS on its Origin tab.
    Removing it from Origin tab will not stop settlements to the sub-number if I am correct.

  • Memo Value for Main Asset and Sub Asset

    Dear Experts,
    I am having the requirement that, all the main asset should have the memo value Rs 1.
    For this I have specified the memo value in OAYI. But system is taking the memo value for Main asset as well as Sub asset.
    But we don't want to keep the memo value for sub asset.
    I hope, I am missing some settings. Could anyone please help me to solve this.
    Regards,
    Aswin

    Hi:
           You need to review your copy settings for sub assets for your relevant class's screen layout in  SPRO...Financial Accounting,,,,Asset Accounting....Master data....Define Screen Layout for Asset Master Data....Select the screen layout which has been assigned to your asset class in OAOA. You will not find any field for value copied. So it is not possible to avoid this happening becuase it is done a t CO code level.

  • Digital pictures of assets in asset master record

    Hi,
    I would like to know if it's possible to include digital pictures of assets in asset master record in ERP.
    We are using ECC 5.0.
    Thanks!
    Regards,
    Diego

    I can think of 2 ways , 1st is using the Services of Object where u can attach a link or assign a picture linked to the Asset how to do it is usually u go to AS02 then specify the asset to edit then click at System ->services for object-> create external document(URL) and assign the path and name to be attached.
    2nd way is using GUIxt which is an external party tools integrated to SAP, which u can design the layout of your maintenance screen and assign a sub routine to link to a picture file by way of asset no.

  • Scrap Percentage Field in Asset Master

    Hii Experts,
    scrap value in main asset and sub number different.
    i want to have scrap value different between main asset and sub number
    example
    asset number 123-0 scrap value = 1
    asset number 123-1 scrap value = 0
    asset number 123-2 scrap value = 0
    I want when i change the main asset i.e 123-0 with scrap value-1, it should update all the relavant sub numbers like 123-1 and so on..
    is there any configuration to solve this problem.  (now i have to manual change by as02)
    Regards,
    Abhay

    Hi Abhay
    In standard system, as soon as asset master is saved, then it's not possible to change sub-number's master data via changing main number mastre data because either main number and sub number are individual asset.
    the possible way to realize your expectation is to use mass change combining a substitution of field 'scrap value' via T-cd:AR01.
    Hope it's helpful.
    Regards
