Unplanned depreciation Posting

Dear All,
My client is following Jan -Dec.
1.They have captilized asset on 31.12.2006 but for 2007 they have not calculated any depreciation on that asset ( wrongly they have specified Dep start date 01.12.2007) they want to charge the depreciation for 2007 for that asset from Jan to december. Does by changing the Dep start date (01.01.2007)the system will calculate the dep fom jan to dec and post when AFAB is executed for 12 period( total amount of dep for 12 periods is posted ). Or we need to run dep for each period seperately.
2. Due to audit adjustment they want to charge the unplanned depreciation for one Asset which is captilized in previous year,where the Depreciation key is automatic .We tried to use ABAA transaction type 640 and system is prompting message " Dep are 01 allowed Unplaned dep posting is Zero"
-change the Depreciation key?
while charging the Unplanned dep do we need to change the DEp key to "MANU".
Please assit.
Thanks
Stephen

Hi
Change the Dep Key - MANU and post the dep manually thru ABMA.

you can reverse posted depreciation by using OASV, but be VERY careful
that you reverse the FI and CO postings.

Asset Unplanned Depreciation posting for period 12 where ord dep is posted

Dear Experts,
I have a requirement where i want to post Unplanned/Manual depreciation for asset for period 12 where i have already posted ordinary depreciation and now when i am trying to change the post key i am getting a message "Enter a depreciation key with 'depreciation by days'
Is their any possibility where i can post some depreciation amount manually or through unplanned depreciation for period 12 without disturbing Planned depreciation amount.
Regards,
Rahul

No,
a depreciation key with 'depreciation by days' you can only change in a depreciation key with 'depreciation by days'
This is set-up in the depreciation key
This is the help:
Depreciation calculation to exact day
Specifies that the system calculates depreciation to the day.
Use
Any period control methods entered in the depreciation key are ignored for the entire useful life of the asset. This applies to all transactions (acquisitions, retirements, and transfers). The system always uses the asset value date as the depreciation start date.
The "depreciation to the day" function becomes active for an asset as soon as the asset has a corresponding depreciation key and the asset is capitalized (posted to). Once this takes place, it is no longer possible to switch off this function for the asset, even if you change the depreciation key. On the other hand, it is not possible to activate this function for an asset after it has already been capitalized using a different depreciation key.

Full unplanned depreciation posted into period

Hello,
posting an unplanned depreciation SAP AA divides the full value between all remaining periods of the year.
Is there a way to change the behavior, so that the full value is posted to the month it is posted?
I have found hardly any customizing settings for unplanned depreciation and I found no documentation to how it is calculated.
Can anyone help me
Regards
Anton

Hi Anton,
You did not mentioned what transaction code you used in posting your unplanned depreciation before you got the scenario you described in your posting.
For you to post unplanned depreciation for a specific month without the system distributing the full value between all remaining periods of the year, use transaction code ABAA.
It is important that you complete the following fields correctly.
1. Company Code : Specify appropriate CC
2. Asset : Specify the asset number
3. Sub-number : Specify if you have one, otherwise, leave blank
4. Document Date : Specify doument date
5. Posting Date : Specify Posting date
6. Period : It is important that you specify the period you want to post the unplanned depreciation to. If you leave blank, the system would just use your posting date and may distribute the amount over the remaining periods of the year.
7. Trans. Type : 640 (Unplanned depreciation on old assets data)
I hope the above helps.
Do not forget to award the points please.

Jacob

Need your in puts on Unplaned Depreciation posting.

Hi Friends,
When i tried to post a unplanned depreciation i am getting a below error message, please help in resolving this.
I am using ABAA t-code to post the unplnned Depreciation. using ttype-640.
Diagnosis
    This posting cannot be performed, since manual depreciati
    posted in the amount of            0,00 in area 01.
Procedure
    Check the transaction type entered, or change the posting
    Caution: If the amount concerned is 0, this could be the
    situations:
    1. The asset does not have any net book value; in this ca
       check the transaction as described above.
    2. The asset has a depreciation key with automatic deprec
       calculation. However, if you want to include depreciat
       to the automatically calculated depreciation, it has t
       depreciation.
       Otherwise, you should use a depreciation key that does
       automatic depreciation (SAP-supplied key: MANU).
Thanks in advance

Post manual/unplanned depreciation in previous period

Dear Experts,
I really appreciate for your advices on the following issue.
I have posted depreciation up to period 9, 2010. However, there's an unplanned depreciation journal that was missed to be posted on period 8, 2010. Therefore, I tried to create the unplanned depreciation journal on period 8, 2010 (t-code ABAA).
When I tried to execute the depreciation (t-code AFAB) on period 8, 2010 with Repeat, Restart, and Unplanned Posting Run, the depreciation could not be posted. Then I tried to execute the depreciation on period 9, 2010 with Repeat Posting Run and the unplanned depreciation posted through ABAA on period 8, 2010 is posted on period 9, 2010.
I have an objective to post the the unplanned depreciation on period 8, 2010 instead of period 9, 2010 even though the depreciation has been posted up to period 9, 2010.
I really appreciate for your advices on how to post unplanned/manual depreciation on previous period or if there is any other work around available for this matter.
Thank you.
Best regards,
Frans Sunarja

Hi Frans
You have 3 options
Option 1 SAP recommended, but too cumbersome
You can reverse the depreciation posting using ABF1
refer this thread for more details
Unable to post depreciation- Error AA730
Option 2
Else, pass a manual JV to shift the depreciation from current month to previous month.... You can remove the auto posting tick in FS00 for depreciation for the time being
The JV shall be Dep a/c Dr and a Balance sheet a/c credit in Previous period AND opposite entry in current period... This balance sheet account shall be clubbed with Accum Dep a/c in your FSV (financial statement version)
Option 3
Same as option 2.... Use T code OASV to pass this JV
Use Accum Dep a/c instead of a balance sheet account... OASV will allow you to pass JV into recon account

Reverse a posted unplanned depreciation

Hello,
I have created a unplanned depreciation action of an asset by using ABBA and posted the unplanned depreciation by AFAB.
Later, I found that this asset should not post any depreciation. Can I ask are there any ways to correct this mistake action?
Many thanks
Sunny

Hello,
I have the following case:
There is Unplanned depreciation posted in the previus years and the users wants to make Write-up.
After Write-up (transaction 730) with the proper amount on 31.12.2010 the system recalculate Ordinary depreciation in December.
This recalculation is posted via AFAB in 12.2010 but the users complain and do not want to recalcuate Ord. depreciation.
The question is:
Is there a way to post Write-up (730) without to recalculate Ordinary depreciation.
I have tried to make some changes in the depreciation key (the base value) but I can not succeed.
Also I have tried to to use ABAA with Z* transaction type to debit Unplanned depreciatino but the result is the same.
Thank you in advance,
Silvia

Re: Write - Up Unplanned Depreciation

Hi All,
I tried to write up the Unplanned Depreciation using Transaction Code.ABZU
Am getting an Error : You Cannot Post Write- ups
You cannot post write-ups
Message no. AA402
Diagnosis
None of the areas to be posted in accordance with the transaction type entered manages one of the depreciation types entered or cumulative values.
Procedure
Check the transaction type.
But i have checked with the Transaction Code : OAXE
I have maintained the Depreciation area 01 & 32 Group in the transaction Type defined by me ZC0 by copying the transaction type 731.
Still am getting the same issue. Can any one give me the right solution.
Regards,
vviek

Hi
Write-ups are used for correction of depreciation values calculated in
the past (closed fiscal years). It is not possible to post write-ups to
assets that have been acquired within the current year. If you attempt
this, you will receive error AA402. The R/3 Library documentation describes    the procedure for write-ups as well as the two situations where write-ups can be used.
To correct the dep. amount, you may use unplanned depreciation posting
(txn ABAA) .

Incorrect Planned Depreciation after posting unplanned depreciation

Hello Everyone,
We have encountered a case whereas an asset acquired in April 2008 with 5 years useful life was planned to be fully depreciated in period 2 of 2009. Below are the details and postings done:
1 - NBV -> 1,056,143.00
2 - Posted Write-up -> 18,054.00
3 - Posted Unplanned depreciation -> 1,038,992.23- (the system actually issued that only the amount of 835,445 can be posted as unplanned dep. In order to bypass this, user changed the dep key to MANU then changing it back after the unplanned posting)
4 - Posted Ordinary Dep for Period 1 of 2009 -> 19,892
5 - Planned Ordinary Dep for Period 2 of 2009 -> 15,312.77-
Once the amount of 15,312.77 is posted, the asset will have Zero NBV.
*My question is: Why did the system posted the 15,312.77 in period 2 only and not spread the amount until 2013 since the asset's useful life is for 5 years (until 2013).
We have tried recalculation of values and the planned depreciation remains the same for period 2.
Hope someone can help.
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Cholo

Hello Vinod,
Period control is 004 which is configured in AFAMP having 01 - Pro rata at period start date for Acquisition, Acquisition in the following year, Retirement and trasfer. Does it have anything to do with the start of depreciation?
Also, when we adjust the ord dep start date to < April 26, the original planned depreciation is not affected for the current FY but only the next FY and moving forward.
For example:
Asset worth 12,000 to be depreciated in 10 years
1 - Alrready in period 3 and 200 has been posted
2 - Posted unplanned dep of 800
3 - Total planned dep for this year did not change (1,200)
4 - System calculated for current year depreciation 1200 (planned) + 800 (unplanned) = 2000
5 - And for the next years 12,000 - 2,000 = 10,000 / 9 years
Should it not be that that 12,000 - 1,000 (200 planned + 800 unplanned) = 11,000 / 9 years and 9 months?
It seems that the unplanned depreciation affected the depreciation computation of the asset only in the next FY.

Unplanned depreciation in FI Fixed Assets does not post to FI-GL

We used transaction ABAA (unplanned depreciation) movement typ 640 to post a depreciation amount - The document has been posted in the AA module ( it is now showing against the Asset in the transaction Asset Explorer transactions AW01N and AB03) however we do not manage to get it posted to FI and consequently have a reconciliation difference between the value in the AA module and the FI-GL.
Can anybody please give advise how we can correct this?
We tried following so far:
(1) post the unplanned depreciation document using transaction AFAB - depreciation posting run.
No documents created.
The message log displays "You want to run the next planned run of the depreciation posting run in period 014. However, the last planned posting run was already performed for period 014."
Than tried to execute the transaction with selection 'repeat' , 'restart', 'unplanned depreciation run': no documents posted either ......
(2) reverse the unplanned depreciation document using transaction AB08
This failed; the system reports following
"No FI document was generated for the asset transaction" and subsequently after clicking the 'post'button' an error"No unique header information transferred into Accounting
Message no. RW001
Diagnosis: The interface into Accounting requires:
Header data
Item data
Currency data
The header data is missing, or several items were transferred.
System Response
Processing of the data in the Accounting interface is not possible.
Procedure
This is a system error of the application which was called up
So..............No idea how to get rid of this document.
Can anybody help?
Kind Regards,
Arjan

Hi Suresh,
Thanks for you feedback.
I had already tried your suggestion; it was the actions which I mentioned under the point (1) in my message.
The system did not generate any FI document, this is exactly the unexpected problem that I am trying to solve.
Any further suggestions?
Kind Regards,
Arjan

Posting Unplanned Depreciation when asset net book value is zero

We recently transferred some assets from one company code to another. However, when they transferred, the depreciation all reversed out YTD.
We are now trying to post the YTD depreciation back in under the original company code, but when we try posting unplanned depreciation, the following error message appears -
"In area 01, you can only post manual dep. up to the amount 0.00"
I believe this is because the asset does not have any net book value now.
Any suggestions on how to resolve this?
Many thanks,

Hi Susan,
do you have the option to reverse the transfer postings? If so, you could specify another period control for transfer postings (such as fiscal year start, etc.) in your depreciation key, with which you can influence how much depreciation is left back respectively transferred.
It is correct that you can´t post an unplanned depreciation on the sending asset now, because the net book value would go below zero. As unplanned depreciation does not influence the ordinary depreciation in the year of posting, this value below zero can not be adjusted with a reduction of planned ordinary depreciation.
I am wondering which effect you´d like to have on the sending asset. Did you post a complete retirement? If so, there should be no APC left which you can depreciate on the sending asset. And as the net book value is zero already, which effect do you want to get? You have to keep in mind that the non-depreciated APC will be continued to depreciate (normally) on the receiving asset. But maybe I misunderstood the problem here ...
Regards,
Markus

Separate GL for posting Unplanned depreciation

Dear Friends,
In ao90 I want to map two GL account for posting unplanned Depreciation in Expense account for unplanned depreciation one for trans.type 640 and one for 650 separately.
Could it be possible ? and How ?
d b darji Sr AO ERP BSNL

Not possible. You link asset classes to account determination and assign GL accounts to Account Determination. The transaction type does not play a role in determining GL accounts.

Posting an unplanned depreciation run for the previous period

Hi SDN forum,
May I just ask if it's possible to run an unplanned posting run for a previous period wherein the depreciation run has already been executed?
The scenario is more like a "repeat unplanned posting run"
I can't seem to include this unplanned depreciation whenever I select the repeat run for the previous period.
Please help.
Thanks

Hi
Through T.Code: ABAA you can able to post unplanned dep for previous period.
Executing AFAB for previous
1 - open FI Periods (OB52)
2 - Post Unplanned Dep T.Code: ABAA
3 - Run AFAB with Repeet run & Test run
you feel it is ok with test run execute production run
