This is regarding Asset Depreciation Calculation

Dear All,
I had doubt regarding Asset depreciation calculation.If i want to Dpreciate the Total Asset value Upto 95% and 5% is scrap value ,where do we configure this setting in SAP Asset Module.
Thanks & Regards,
Prasanna.M

Hi,
You can achieve this by either scrap value / memo value in your depreciation area.
Go to AS02, go to dep area tab, double click on depreciation area and in detail section enter the scrap value percentage or value. This procedure is only possible, if scrap value maintainance is allowed at main asset and sub asset number in AO21.
This will resolve your issue.
Thanks,
Srinu

Asset depreciation calculation for prevous year when legacy data transfere

Hello,
Asset Legacy Data transfer has made as on 31.12.2006. so, for the first period asset depreciation calculation has done wrongly i.e. on the first period of 2007. but it was not noticed at that point of time, now after 2 years, the cumulative difference is coming out very big.
for 1st period, in Asset Value Tab of AS03, for period 01 , 2007 when i am checking right now it shows for dep. Area 01 right now that Amt to be post (14.48) instead of that in the next line for Dep. area 20 and in the next line it shows, Amt. to be posted ( -0.28). hence, for next period only differnce amount is posted in G/L side instead of actual it should be posted as 14.76.
so, now because of this error, my G/L and AA sides are not matching up.
eventhough i post manual reversal entry via FB01, when i will run ABST2 there will be problem.
if i run manual unplanned depreciation, then will my problem of not matching of Asset side and GL side will be solved. ?
also, please provide suggestion from your end in order to solve this issue.
Thanking you for your help.
Jigs.

We cannot post any depreciation to previous fiscal year 2008 as no planned depreciation is envisaged for the previous year 2008. The transfer date for Legacy asset data transfer is maintained as 12/31/2008 and takeover values are uploaded accordingly. Hence, 2009 is a first year for Asset Accounting of the company code.
However, Depreciation posting program checks for previous period log while executing for the current period. The logs are stored in u201CTABAu201D table. For new company code there will not be any entries in TABA table.
Due to missing functionality, System is checking for previous year depreciation posting logs even though the current fiscal year is first year for planned depreciation and giving error message AA 687.
As per SAP Note 144441 this error can be rectified with the help of correction program ZACORR_TABA_ENTRY_CREATE.
Steps to Rectify the Error:
1. Copy correction program from SAP Note 144441 into SAP System.
2. Execute the program with transaction code SA38
3. Check the values in test mode
4. If the table is updated with documennt number , remove the test mode tick and execute again
5. Execute the deprecation

Asset Depreciation Calculation when Fiscal Year are Different

Hi,
The client reporting company is in US and the company code is maintained with K4 fiscal year varient. (for common controlling area).
Though the India entity follow K4, their depreciation calculation are based on V3 (April to March). The real depreciation for their postings is based on their April to March calculations. The depreciation is calculated on the WDV method and the net assets are calculated on the end balances of December where as it should be the April of previous year. the eg. is

Wrong topic I think

Asset depreciation calculation based on net book value adjustment

currently I have one asset depreciated based on acquisition value, I want to depreciate using netbook value starting from May,
thus May and afterwards depreciation should be 61107 USD.
but accountant forget this and depreciate asset in May with amount 54628. the June planned depreciation is still based on Acquisition value, i.e. 61150.
So how to adjust June depreciation, if I create a new depreciation key with multi-method based on NBV and change asset master,
will this solve problem?
how to adjust May posting since it is already posted? thanks

Thank you for the reply.
But The issue here is I changed the depreciation key based on NBV, but planned depreciation still based on acquisition value for the following months. by the way, OAYR is monthly depreciation. I didn't tick the smoothing, I think this will affect whole company code. I only want to change the depreciation key based on NBV for three assets only, the rest of assets still using Acquistion value depreciation.
I do test in a sand box, now the latest posted depreciation is April, original depreciation key is Z001 (based on Acquisition value),
I changed the depreciation key to Z002(based on NBV), in AS03, I can see the planned depreciation for May is still 61150(based on Acquisition value). I run AFAB, (test run), the result is same.
My objective is let May and subsequent months planned depreciation to be 61107 based on NBV of April.
Simply change the depreciation key doesn't work at all, anyone have the solution, which other fields in asset master I need to change? or do i need other configuration? thanks

Asset Depreciation calculations

Hi Gurus,
Can any one tell me the How can I configuration for the calculation of asset Tax depreciation. Dep.method is declining method. Eg. The asset useful life is 4 yrs. Client would like to calculate depreciation for first yrs one ration of dep. then from 4th year he would like to change dep ration the NBV should be 1JPY. Financial year Feb to Jan
Example
Cost JPY100,000
Useful life 4 yr = ratio 0.625

guranteed dep ratio 0.05274
revised dep ratio 1
Can any one help in this regards,
Thanks,
Pavan

Sorry my apologies a small correction.
You can determine the asset value date based on rules:
these rules are defined in configuration.
asset accounting >transactions> specify how default asset value date is determined.
great config..SAP is great..

Asset Depreciation calculation BADI implementation

Hi Experts,
We have a specific requirement for calculation of rapid depreciation in assets. When a change process(termination) is run in CRM side it creates an asset on ECC which has to be depreciated rapidly.
We have to cumulate the values of billplan and post it as depreciation amount for depr. area 01 to which special depr. key is assigned.
I have activated implementation of BADI FAA_EE_CUSTOMER ( method SET_PERCENT_AMOUNT).
The problem is when i put a breakpoint in this method and run test depreciation ( txn. AFAB ) it doesn't even come to the break-point.
Is there something I am missing in this enhancment. Please suggest.

You need to change depreciation key to use approriate Base Value method (with X,Y,Z, indicator).

Help on Asset Depreciation Calculation BADI

Hello Gurus.
I'm using the Business Add In BADI_FIAA_DOCLINES to change the way SAP calculates the depreciation amount for an asset in transaction AFAB.
The customer needs to compute it based on PP information. I already have everything, but in that BADI there is a field missing. I need the number of the asset that is being depreciated, and it should be stored in the structure IS_RLAMBU and the tables IT_ANEPI and CT_ACCIT.
However, all I can see is an empty field, or, in the best case simply I see a * sign.
I hope I was clear, and I thank you in advance for your valuable help.
Reward points will be granted to helpful answers =)

Config of Group assets - Tax Depreciation Calculation : India

Dear Seniors,
can you please explain the configuration of the Group assets and how exactly the tax depreciation calculation in India happens for the individual assets with scheme of entries.
Thanks and Regards
Sathish

Hi,
In India, depreciation on assets for the purpose of computation of net income as per the Income Tax (IT) Act 1961 is calculated over a block of assets instead of individual assets as allowed under the Companies Act 1956. Asset acquisitions and retirements are managed over the block level. The IT Act prescribes certain rates of depreciation to be used under the Written down Value (WDV) method over these asset blocks to compute depreciation.
The following are the customization settings that may be followed in the R/3 system in order to manage your assets in the income tax depreciation area.
1. Copy the standard chart of depreciation 0IN as provided by SAP and create your own chart of depreciation.
2. Use the depreciation area 15 for the purpose of management of assets under the IT Act. Make it statistical in nature. (Reference Transaction Code: OADB). Do not check the box negative net book value.
3. Specify that the Income Tax depreciation area takes over the APC from the book but not make it identical (Reference Transaction Code: OABC).
4. Create an asset class for the purpose of income tax blocks. This asset class will be used to create only group assets. (Reference Transaction Code: OAOA)
5. Specify that the depreciation area for income tax can be managed only for group assets. (Reference Transaction Code: OAYM). This would mean that depreciation for this depreciation area would be computed only at group asset level.
6. Specify that the asset class defined in (b) above will be used for creating group assets only. (Reference Transaction Code: OAAX)
7. Two period control methods (IT and NL) have been defined in the system for determination of start or the end of depreciation calculation at the time of a fixed asset acquisition or retirement. You may use these period control methods while creating the depreciation keys for the purpose of IT depreciation.
Calendar assignments have been made for the above mentioned period control methods in order to reflect valuation requirements as per the Income Tax Act (Transaction Code: OAVH). You may create your own period control methods depending on the fiscal year variant you use. The period control methods supplied are based on the fiscal year variant V3.
8. Depreciation Keys: The following depreciation keys have been created in the system. They correspond to the income tax blocks that are prescribed under Indian tax laws. They are as below:
Depreciation Keys:
1. IN1 - Tax Depreciation - 5% -
I Hope it will give you some basic guidance.

Depreciation calculation for Indian Tax Depreciation Area - Fixed Assets

Can any one of you kindly advice how to setup the Multi levels methods and Period controls for Tax Depreciation key in Indian Tax Depreciation area.
My Leading ledger Fiscal year: Jan u2013 Dec (Year dependend)
And Non-leading ledger (India) Fiscal year: April u2013 March (Year dependend)
I was able to post correct depreciation for leading and non-leading ledger Depreciation areas with a stated percentage. But the calculation of Tax depreciation area is incorrect.
As per client requirement, Tax depreciation area is setup only reporting purpose and no Depreciation posting.
Required Depreciation Calculation for Tax Depreciation Area:
For Acquires & Additions,
Rule1:
If it is >=180 days (as per Non-leading ledger Fiscal year) the system should calculate depreciation as stated percentage. Eg: 10%
Rule2:
If it is <180 days (as per Non-leading ledger Fiscal year) the system should calculate depreciation of 50% on stated percentage. Eg: Stated percentage is 10%, then it should be 5%.
Early responses will be appreciated.
Thanks much for the help.

Hi JBC,
please search this Forum, I think basic questions about Indian tax depreciation have been asked dozen of times in this Forum here. You should find some answers in earlier threads.

Indian Income Tax Depreciation Calculation

Hi
Can any of you please explain/tell me where are the exact SAP configuration settings for the calculation of depreciation calculation as per Indian Income Tax Act by meeting below requirements as per Section 32 of Indian Income Tax Act:
1. If the Asset is being purchased and used in a Financial Year for 180 Days or below 180 Days - Depreciation has to be calculated 50% of Annual Depreciation.
2.If the Asset is being purchased and used in a Financial Year for more than 180 Days - Depreciation has to be calculated 100% of Annual Depreciation.
Waiting for your valuable reply.
Thanks and Regards
P.V.S.R.Gupta

But if I follow your suggestion of taking Period Control Method 04, it would calculate 1/2 Year Depreciaton only
No. If the asset is in use for >180 days, then it's acquisition date must therefore occur in periods 1-6 which will set the depreciation start date to the beginning of the year. This will result in a full year's worth of depreciation.
If the asset is in use for <180 days then the start date is set to mid year which results in only 6 months worth of depreciation to be posted.
All of this can be adjusted per your FYV and on a yearly basis if the FYV is year dependent in the asset period control calendar assignments table.
I'll be the first to admit that I don't know the statutory requirements of India but I know how FI-AA works and can't think of an alternative solution for you.

Wrong depreciation calculated for base value 04 + EA-FIN activated

Hi,
after activating EA-FIN, depreciation for assets using base value 04 (= half of replacement value) is calculated wrong.
While AW01 for a particular asset shows depreciation values based on the FULL replacement value (like it would be base value 03) AW01_AFAR (the u201Coldu201D asset explorer) shows the correct depreciation for base value 04.
The wrong base value can also be seen using the "display depreciation calculation" button in both transactions.
There are no enhancements for base value determination active.
I didnu2019t find any SAPNET notes nor SCN entries regarding this case, any ideas?
Best regards, Christian

For what it's worth, I did a search and didn't find anything either.
It sounds like you've already tried this, but if the base value (the actual $$ value) is different in the trace on both tcodes then you have a problem. I would be sure to recalculate the values when you enter AW01 and AW01_AFAR to ensure that it's correct before looking at the trace.
The formula for the replacement value is:
( u_ganlc-kansw + u_ganlc-answl +
               u_ganlc-kmafa + u_ganlc-mafav + u_ganlc-zusma +
               u_ganlc-mafam + u_ganlc-mafal +
               u_ganlc-kaufw + u_ganlc-aufwv +
               u_ganlc-aufwp + u_ganlc-aufwl ) / 2 .
I'd look at ANLC for the asset and do the calculation yourself to confirm the value.
You've probably done all of that so I predict an OSS message in your future !

Depreciation calculation-AFAB

Hello,
Dep start date : 25.09.2008
Asset aquisition : 29-.09.2008
Dep rate : 10%
While running AFAB, why system is calculating from 1 period i.e., Apr (Fiscal year is 2008) onwards. Dep should be calculated from 6 period i.e., Sep onwards.
And how Acc dep will be closed? at the year end shall we pass a JV like
Acc Dep A/c Dr
To Asse A/c
Can anybody pl let me know the logic behind this?
Regards
anifi

Hi Anifi,
See the help behind Smooting
If you set this indicator, the depreciation posting program calculates the periodic depreciation to be posted by distributing the remaining depreciation to be posted equally over the remaining periods of the fiscal year.
Otherwise the system calculates in each period (based on the total annual depreciation) the amount of depreciation that must be posted from the start of the fiscal year to the current period. The depreciation already posted is then subtracted from this amount. If too little or too much depreciation has been posted in previous periods, the system either makes up or reverses the difference in full during the next depreciation posting run using the catch-up method (depreciation for past periods in a lump sum).
When you use 1 month depreciaton for an asset, the depreciation is not in 1 Month but split over the fiscal year

Depreciation calculation

Dear All,
Our depreciation policy is to depreciate asset from the day of purchase till the day of sale (day of disposal is also included).We are following daily convention basis for 365 days i.e the depreciation is calculated on daily basis with straigh line method.Now we are facing issue system is not calculating the depreciation on the day of disposal otherwise all depreciation calculation is correct please suggest in this regard.
Regards
Naveed

The problem with the @SLN function is that it only works across the dimension tagged as "Time". Planning apps typically have a separate year and period dimension, so this function doesn't help us much. You basically have to create your own depreciation calculation.
To do this, create a moving sum using the @MOVSUMX function (using the TRAILSUM option). Then divide this moving sum with the depreciable periods (which will obviously vary by asset class).
You can only do this for "new" assets. Most fixed assets systems can feed you the projected (future) depreciation on "existing" assets. Then you can add your depreciation on new assets (that you've just calculated) to your depreciation to existing assets to get total depreciation.
Hope this helps,
- Jake
