Unable to retire group asset

Hi Experts,
I am having problem with group asset retirement. Differences exist between the individual asset and group asset. Although my individual asset NBV is all zero, the group asset still has some value. How should i configure so that whenever my individual asset is zero, the group asset is also zero (so that I can retire the asset completely)
Truely appreciate some advise. Thanks.

Hi
Firstly it is important you refer the note 371534 for information.  
The correction code is obvioulsy in your system already.                                                                               
Please check you run a fiscal year change (RAJAWE00) to year 2009.  
Check : transaction code OAAQ and see what is the closed fiscal year?
(If issue pending, please. check Asset Capitalization date in this case)
FYI,                                                                
Please double check the following data whether these correspond     
to the valid values via SE16 :-                                                                               
1. T093B > Closed Year                                              
2. T093C > Transfer date                                            
3. T093C > Current Fiscal Year                                                                               
With regards to the above, you will have to ensure that the         
T093B > Closed Year is in line with T093C > Transfer date and       
T093C > Current Fiscal Year is later than T093C > Transfer date.

  • Group Asset Partial Retirement

    Dear All,
       I am using Group Assets and I would like to partially retire an asset attached to the group asset. The issue is that SAP is making a positive adjustment on the current year depreciation, and only this year's depreciation is incorrect. All the following years depreciate correctly, according to the newly calculated NBV. Does anyone know if there's something in Customizing that I can adjust or will my users have to manually re-adjust this?
    Thank you!

    Hi Sharif,
    I think system is correctly posting to loss/gain account to the externt sales value and net book value difference. It should not go to asset logically, don't you think so? Why do you think it should go to asset?
    I hope this clarifies your doubts.
    Thanks!!!

  • Group asset retirement

    Dear Experts,
         I want to retire partially and fully a group asset. I customized a transaction type to retire only that depreciation area (15), but SAP tells me that posting with transaction type not allowed. Does anyone know how to go about retiring that group asset?
    Thank you!
    Regards.

    Hi,
    As per my knowledge Group Asset is for Indentificatin of the similar assets in that group.  When we are acquistion, posting retairment will happens only at asset level only. So please do at individual asset level.
    please correct me if i am worng.

  • 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.

  • Asset Retirement (Legacy assets) high priority

    MODERATOR:  message locked.  please read the rules of engagement before posting.
    Dear Friends,
    I am doing retirement for Legacy assets using F-92 transaction code .i selected transaction type 210 . it is giving following error
    Retirement of old assets data not possible (No existing old assets data) for some asset class assets
    and some asset class assets i am getting following error
    Posting with trans.type 210 not possible (No acquisition posted) but values are there in legacy asset(take over values tab)
    why some asset class assets are getting Retirement of old assets data not possible  and some asset class assets are getting  No acquisition posted
    for normal assets created using AS01 no error is coming
    some Legacy asset class assets retirement happening fine
    plz suggest which transaction type has to use for legacy assets or need to create separate transaction type for legacy assets
    we are using group asset concept
    errors are
    Retirement of old assets data not possible (No existing old assets data)
    Message no. AA416
    Diagnosis
    You have tried to post an retirement based on amount, using a transaction type which refers to old assets data (acquisitions from previous years).
    However, the sum of the APC at the start of the fiscal year and the transactions, related to the past, equals 0.
    Procedure     
    Check the transaction type entered and the asset.
    Posting with trans.type 210 not possible (No acquisition posted)
    Message no. AA324
    Diagnosis
    Transaction type 210 belongs to a transaction type group, which can only be used to post to assets to which posting has already been performed. However, no postings have been made to this asset.
    Procedure
    Use a transaction type from a transaction type group, which can be used for the first acquisition to an asset.

    Hi,
    If you are doing upload of legacy assets each year wise, then you have to AJRW for every year.
    Another way-- you can set your legacy asset takeover date as same as your last closed FY end date, by keeping this date as takeover date you may not be able to run any asset balances report with a report date, which is prior to your takeover date.
    For ex: if your takeover date is 31.03.2009, then you cannot run balances report with a report date <31.03.2009
    For dep rate changes issue----
    You have create your legacy asset with a dep key, which should have the rate of dep from takeover date only.
    Whatever depreciation rate changes happend before takeover cannot be maintained in the asset master, since SAP will not calculates dep prior to takeover date. Since system will calculates dep from 01.04.2009 (according to example date) with the rate, which is appilicable from 01.04.2009 only.
    What you have to do is, you need to create your dep key with currenct dep rate only and maintain the same in your legacy asset. So while creating through AS91, you need to maintain the APC value (original purchase price) Accum dep ( this amount might have derived from various dep rate calculations outside system till takeover).
    Thanks,

  • How to accout unplanned depreciation for group assets

    Friends,
    Unplanned depreciation is accounted for group assets few years ago.This is for special depreciation areas.
    Now i would like to reverse this amount as write up unpalnned depreciation,  but system is throwing eror message that: This  function is not possible for group assets.
    OR
    The issue what we are facing is special dep areas has one cent as -ve acquisition due to which we are unable to deactivate the asset. This one cent was accounted as unplanned dep few years ago. How do we make the APC as zero when it has -ve APC in special dep areas.
    pl,  suggest how to go about this.
    Thank
    NNS

    Hi,
    This is not possible in the standard and this is not a from SAP intended and provided solution. Therefore I ask you to be really careful and test it bevore on a test system.  (and perhaps to discuss this with your SAP consultant)
    The workaround to remove the group asset from table  ANLB-ANLGR from the asset could be done by creating your own program.

  • Please tell me the group assets configuration

    my client wants , add the assets to groups assets,  and how many assets are there for a particular group, but i am unable to search that . i dont know group assets concept. please tell me the configuration.

    Hi anji,
    the system calculates depreciation at the level of individual assets. Certain types of calculation needs or tax requirements (such as in the U.S.A.) make it necessary, however, to calculate depreciation at a higher level. For this purpose, you can group assets in the FI-AA system together into so-called group assets. You can group assets together per depreciation area to form group assets.
    It is basically possible to use all asset classes for creating group assets. you need to set aside particular asset classes for use in conjunction with group assets. These asset classes are then reserved solely for group assets, and are not allowed to be used for normal assets.
    A group asset is represented in the system by a separate master record.

  • Retirement of Assets

    Hello Everyone,
    i was testing  the T.code ABNK(Posting the Subsequent cost from the asset retirement) when i was doing this system is throwing a warning message saying "Asset is a group asset: posting with transaction type not allowed" i have to define the group asset for all the assets which i created as it is a mandatory field .can anyone tell me what is the solution for this query 
    Thanks in advance.

    hi ,
    Kindly check whether individual asset assigned to the group asset is being retired using transaction FB05 and then it is possible to post the subsequent cost to the individual asset and create transaction type in AO81 and post to the individual asset the subsequent cost will be reflected in the group asset ,hence retirement of group asset takes place when all the indiviudal asset is retired.

  • Fiori Launchpad Error: Failure - Unable to load groups Resolved!!!!

    Hey Good Fellas,
    This is a solution rather than a discussion, which i thought to do to with a kind generosity of spirit to give back to the community.
    It gives me immense pleasure and happiness to write this particular post, because it is through SCN only i have been able to find the solution.
    Ok, let's get down to the Business quickly, shall we?
    I have been configuring Fiori App - Approve Purchase Orders. All the tasks for this have been done from SAP Help Site.
    Recently I upgraded the ERP/Gateway (Its an embedded deployment) to EHP 7 and UI to SP09, post which the Fiori Launchpad started giving the below error.
    If you look around the SCN, you will probably hit across these threads and so did I.
    http://scn.sap.com/thread/3571448
    SAP Fiori - UI Add-on SP09 update troubleshooting
    With the first thread, I tried everyone's solution and suggestions which had worked for others, but it didn't for me.
    With second thread (Excellently posted by Masayuki Sekihara), it started off with lots of efforts and double-checks applying all of these notes hoping that it would resolve the issue. But I had done all the steps 1-8 and still didn't get the solution.
    Besides the above two mentions I did umpteen number of other ridiculous things like implementing this note, that note, De-implementing another of the notes and everything i found as possible solutions on the Web.
    Now, the breakthrough here is checking the errors in /IWFND/ERROR_LOG. Well, on the browser it used to give error 'Failure - Unable to Load Groups' while at the server side, actual error was something unusual and remotely not related to what the error looked like in the browser. In the back-end, I was getting the error "Data Provider implementation 'ZINTEROP_MODEL_0001_BE' '01' 'DEFAULT' does not exist". And this is something i know how to correct.
    So just keep looking for the errors in /IWFND/ERROR_LOG and shift your focus there. That's really a good place to trouble-shoot.
    And for the record to take care of the error 'Data Provider implementation 'ZINTEROP_MODEL_0001_BE' '01' 'DEFAULT' does not exist' you have to assign the DPC (Data Provider Class) to DMC (Data Modelling Class) correctly by navigating to IMG - SAP Netweaver - Gateway - Former Development - Local OData Channel Development - Registration - Assign Data Provider to Data Model. There you define the Data provider with the correct Software Version and Voila you are all set! You don't have to worry about the duplicate entry with another Software version, your correct software version is the one you have defined in the System Alias which you are using inside the service, which is generally DEFAULT.
    I am able to get inside the Fiori Launchpad now (I was quite at edge to really give up as all the possible solutions had been ruled out for me ) and do see the tiles of the apps configured.
    I hope this is going to be a good take-away for others who are having Odata handling issues.
    The floor is all yours now for your kind feedback. Be gentle with me, I am a very shy blogger.
    Best Regards,
    Akshay

    Steve,
    If you still have the error, this is what I did to resolve mines.
    1) Goto SPRO - SAP Netweaver - Gateway - Former Development - Local OData Channel Development - Registration - Assign Data Provider to Data Model
    2) Find out the entry for 'ZINTEROP_MODEL_0001_BE'
    3) Copy that entire row in a notepad for all the fields
    4) Create new Entry with all the fields, except change the Software Version to DEFAULT (As that's what missing for you'
    5) Save and give that another try.
    This is what I exactly wrote in my solution as well.

    A screen-shot perhaps helps you more.
    Let the other duplicate entry with Software Version other than Default be there. Important is that the software version that you have defined in your alias must be the one over here.
    Let me know how that goes?

    11. define screen layouit for asset master data, depriciation areas, define base methods, multilevel methods etc.,
    12.you have to maintain period control methods for dep run and maintain depriciation keys
    13. now you should have one asset, so create one asset maser record; t.code as01, post the purchase transation by f-90
    14. now you have to run the depriciation by t.code AFAB

    The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL', was not

    Hello Hrishi
    I have researched your issue and note 1063792 should resolve it. The
    SAP_APPL that it is included in is SAPKH60011. I recommend you to upgrade to the latest support package available to avoid eventual errors.
    For program errors you should open a support ticket in the SAP Service Market place.

  • Asset Retirement: Transaction "Asset Sale without customer" (ABAON)

    Hi Experts,
    While posting Asset Retirement in ABAON, error occurs as "SYST: You can not determine the period for rule 02 to 23.03.11".
    Here we are retiring 3 assets. One from one asset class & other 2 from another asset class.
    for the 1st Asset Class- period ctrl. method is 006 and in T-code AFAMP, in retirement column rule for 006 is defined as 11, which means "Next Month". AND...........
    for 2nd Asset class- period ctrl. method is 003 and in T-code AFAMP, in retirement column rule for 003 is defined as 02, which means "Pro Rata upto mid-period at period start date."
    Now I think problem is there for 2nd asset class as rule 02 can not determine the period according to error.
    Please explain the logic? What axactly system is saying? and how can I solve this issue?
    Regards,
    Nilesh

    Hi Nilesh
    Nice to know the issue has been resolved.
    OAVH is used to determine the relationship between posting intervals and periods in the given fiscal year version. The assignment entries in OAVH have to be changed in the following cases:
    u2022     You use period control rules you defined yourself.
    u2022     You change the definition of the periods in the fiscal year version in Financial Accounting.
    As you noticed, case you use a year-dependent fiscal year variant, then you have to perform OA84 to generate period controls properly.
    For more information, you can refer to IMG documentation in following IMG menu path:
    IMG: Asset Accounting -> Depreciation -> Valuation Methods -> Period Control -> Define Calender Assignments (OAVH) / Generate Period Controls (OA84)
