Unplanned adjustment for closed FY and changing of depr key for new FY

Question

Hi Everyone,
i understand that this is a common problem and some folk have already post similar post, however i find that confusing or maybe i have not search enough.
here is my problem:
we have gone live for 2 year, since 2009. we have posted depreciation based on the old depre key for the last 2 years. in the current FY, the auditor have found a mistake and wanted to change the depreciation key and post the unplanned depreciation for the overcharge. may i know the correct steps to execute this change? and is there any important area that i have to pay attention to?
please take note that the current FY is already coming to an end.
example of steps:
1. post the overcharge amount through unplanned depreciation AFAA
2. change the depreciation key and change the start of depreciation date, expired useful life
3. run depreciation posting for planned and unplanned
Regards,
John

Answer 1

1. post the overcharge amount through unplanned depreciation AFAA
2. change the depreciation key and change the start of depreciation date, expired useful life
3. run depreciation posting for planned and unplanned
1. You create a separate transaction type for this purpose of else use 640 or 641. Posting them by using AB01 or ABSO. At this point this will be at FI-AA only, when you run depreciation to AFAB, then the GL entries will be posted.
2. You need to execute LSMW in order to change the Dep. Key, Depreciation Start Date and Expired Useful.
3. You run the repeat run in AFAB, if you have already posted the depreciation, otherwise, usually select "planned posting run".
