Upgrade Fixed Assets from 10.7 SC to 11i

I would to gain some knowledge from anyone who has been through a Fixed Assets Upgrade from 10.7 SC to 11i. In particular, I need to understand the steps involved, estimate for the total task, lesson learnt, any technical issues, any relevant training that may be useful and any advice for this task. Thanks in advance.

We have completed our first upgrade of FA from 10.7 SC to 11i. Most issues arose from the introduction of WorkFlow for Account Generator. In addition we have had difficulty activating the "security by book" new feature. This is still under investigation. We upgraded PO, AP, FA and GL. I can say that more than half of our time has been spent resolving FA issues.
The length of time the task will take will depend on which functionality you use. Have you seen the upgrade kit on metalink? it has all the upgrade steps. From that you could determine how many steps you need to perform.
Hope this helps.

Transfer Fixed Assets From Profit Center to Another

Dears,
I have transferred a fixed assets from location to another location. So that, I have to change the profit center for the transferred fixed assets.
I tried to do the following :
AS02 => Time dependent =>More Intervals => Add Intervals .
But the cost center is not able to be changed.
Please help...
Thanks

HI,
To trasfer an asset from one profit center to other profit center, create an asset in receiving profit center and run transaction ABUMN. System will retire asset from sending profit center and the value will be trasferred to receiving profit center.
You can also have second option for this, change cost center of asset by defining the validity for the same.
Hope this would help you.

Pankaj

Fixed assets from FI to BW

Hi Guys,
I know it is general question. I am new to BW.
I would like to ask if anyone could give me a hint how to extract from FI assets master data to BW on daily basis. Which method I should use (if any guide is available).
I would like to export all necessary data (master data, acquisitions, depreciation, retirements ...)
In BW I would like to use standard content for Fixed assets.
All recommendations/comments are highly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Jan

Hi Jan:
Please take a look at the Business Content documentation available in SAP help, here is the link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/EN/a4/f4153c4eb5d82ce10000000a114084/content.htm
Note that the 0FIAA_C01, 0FIAA_C02, 0FIAA_C03, 0FIAA_C04, 0FIAA_C05 and 0FIAA_C06 Cubes are obsolete now so you should work with the following DSOs and Cubes instead:
DSO 0FIA_DS11 and Cube 0FIAA_C11 - Transactions (Delta)
DSO 0FIA_DS12 and Cube 0FIAA_C12 - Anual Values (Delta)
DSO 0FIA_DS13 and Cube 0FIAA_C13 - Period Values (Delta)
The 2 DataSources that extract the data for the 3 Cubes above are 0FI_AA_11 and 0FI_AA_12.
For Master Data (Texts and Attributes) you should activate the following DataSources:
0ASSET_AFAB_ATTR                  Depreciation Area Real or De
0ASSET_AFAB_TEXT                  Depreciation area real or de

0TRANSTYPE_ATTR                   Asset Transaction Type
0TRANSTYPE_TEXT                   Asset transaction type
Also note that the DataSource 0ASSET_ATTR_TEXT replaces both 0ASSET_ATTR and 0ASSET_TEXT.
One last word, probably the book "Reporting for SAP Asset Accounting" by Thomas Michael may be useful to you.
Good luck,

Create fixed assets from within the transaction for creating the purchase order

Hello All,
I have gone through the notes on help.sap.com related to automatic creation of asset master record at the time of creating purchase order. I am not sure how do we achieve this?
Link to the notes on help.sap.com
SAP Library - Asset Accounting (FI-AA)
Any suggesstions from the expert group is appreciated.
Thank you,
Vinay

Hi Vinay
I know there is a feature whereby you assign asset classes per material group and then you create assets from within the PO. I never used it though
Let me tell you one thing or rather ask you. Will you as a finance consultant be willing to let a MM guy create the assets??
Or will a MM guy be willing to create it?? If you allow them, you should be ready for surprises.
Honestly, this is a feature not worth exploring unless a FI guy is willing to create the PO. I would suggest the creation of asset masters should be with FI only

Steps in after migration of fixed assets in SAP R/3 System

Hi Guru's,
I migrated all fixed assets from legacy system to SAP R/3 system. Dev,Quality and Mock Production Server.
Could anybody guide me what is the next process in Fixed Assets?
That would be greate help from our Guru's
Regards
Odaiah Pelley

Report S_ALR_87011964 will be able to give you a report by Asset Class.
In terms of the data you have migrated, I am guessing in your current system there is a way to get the same data and therefore you should compare.
Another check is the total posting you have made to the GL Data Migration account is the same as the total balance in your current system.
FS10 will give you this.
Lastly you can also use FS10 for the asset recon accounts if they are grouped in a similar way in your current system.
The business lead should be able to help you with the data they have and how they could reconcile their data.

Creating Asset from Requisition???

I need to know the detailed steps to create a Fixed Asset from Requisition (iProc)?
Please give me detailed steps along with configuration needed?

Do you mean to say we can just add the quantity to the existing Asset
and cannot create a new asset using iProc/PO?
If we can just buy, can you let me know the steps required for it and the flow for the same?

Upgrade the DB from 2007A to 8.8 PL 10- Error in Fixed Assets Master Data

Dear Expert,
we r using smoothly Fixed Assets Add-on in 2007A environment, Now we are upgrade to SAP B1 8.8 SP00 PL10. When i view the Fixed Assets Master Data by choosing from List Its shows all of my master data list, but when i select any of them system shown nothing in FA Master Data form , please guide
Tahir

Hi,
I think the addon is corrupted. have you reinstall B1 addon ? if you have reinstalled but it is still as same, I suggest to upgrade the B1 version and the addon to the latest i.e. SAp B1 8.8 SP00 PL16. You can also log a message to SAP support but test this case first in the SAP B1 8.8 SP00 PL16 environment.

Error 1628 when installing upgrade of Fixed assets

'Error 1628' Failed to installed is occuring when installing upgrade of Fixed assets to PL100.

Dear Lisa，
In order to try to resolve the issue, please do the following steps :-
1. Go to Start   > Run   > %temp%, then delete all the files present in
the temporary directory.
2. Then Reboot your machine.
3. Reinstall the FA addon as per following:
o Start SAP Business One. Log on to the appropriate company.
o Choose 'Administration' -> 'Add-ons' -> 'Add-on Administration'.
o Remove the add-on(s) from the company by marking them and
   clicking the left arrow button.
o Choose 'OK'.
o Close SAP Business One.
o In Microsoft Windows, choose 'Start' -> 'Control Panel' -> 'Add
   or Remove Programs'.
o Check if any SAP Business One add-on(s) are displayed in the
   list.
o If an add-on is included, uninstall it by choosing 'Remove'.
o Using Windows Explorer, locate to the add-ons installation
   folder. Depending on the different versions of SAP Business One,
   the default installation folder is 'C:\Program Files\SAP
   Manage\SAP Business One\AddOns\sap' or 'C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP
   Business One\AddOns\sap'.If you chose a different folder during
   the installation process, locate that folder. Delete all
   subfolders (folders named like the add-ons) and, if present, the
   "_common" folder (which contains the framework for add-ons).
o Locate to the SAP Business One installation folder. The default
   installation folder is 'C:\Program Files\SAP Manage\SAP Business
   One' or 'C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One'. If you chose a
   different folder during the installation process, locate that
   folder.
o Open the following files : 'AddOnsInstall.sbo' and
   'AddOnsLocalRegistration.sbo' in Notepad and
   delete the imformation related to Fixed assets only,
    then save the file.
   Note: If you only installed fixed assets ,that means no other add-on installed ,you can completely Delete   the above files.
o Start SAP Business One.
o Log on to the appropriate company.
o Choose 'Administration' -> 'Add-ons' -> 'Add-on Administration'.
o Reassign the add-on(s) to the company.
o Choose 'OK'.
o Restart SAP Business One.
Hope it could be helpful.

Oracle does not offer this functionality.
You will have to write a personalization that will query FA based on the item and display the message to the user.
To invoke this personalization, the user may have to go to tools > show FA. This Show FA is a new option you create by personalization.

Fixed Assets : How to fetch assets from FA tables depending on periods submitted in query ?

Hello,
Module : Fixed Assets
We are trying to fetch the assets for a report depending on the periods['From Period' & 'To Period'] given to SQL query,but we are not getting count of assets as expected.
And so the count isn't matching with 'CIP Details Report' which is a seeded oracle report.Here is the query that we tried,
SELECT   fadd.asset_id, fadd.asset_number,
         fak.segment1 || '.' || fak.segment2 asset_key, fadd.tag_number,
         fadd.description asset_description,

     AND fdp.book_type_code = :p_book_type_code            --'KV US CORP BOOK'
     AND fdp.period_counter =
            (SELECT MAX (fdp.period_counter)
               FROM fa_deprn_periods fdp
              WHERE 1 = 1

         fb.life_in_months,
         gp.start_date,
         gp.end_date
ORDER BY 1
The query returns the assets which have the 'transaction date entered' between the periods submitted.
But what about the assets who's 'Beginning Year Balance' is not zero [in the periods submitted in the query], those assets should also get displayed in the report.[and seeded report 'CIP Detail Report' shows assets who's 'Beginning Year Balance' is not zero along with the assets which have the transaction date entered between the periods submitted]
Any inputs / help / suggestions on this ?
Thanks !

This is a strange requirement, depending on the columns you have and what are optional in them, one way is to have separate operations and each opeartion will have different inputs and for each operation , a different DB Adapter is called. But this way, it results in more number of operations for the service as well as more number of references in the composite. Even if you pass the column inputs to the SQL procedure, it will result in a large number of if-else cases..
Thanks,

Settlements from revenues/debit-side down payments to receiver fixed asset

Hi
while settling the WBS to AUC i am getting the below error
settlements from revenues/debit-side down payments to receiver fixed asset is not allowed
please advise how to resolve the issue
Thanks
Rao...

Hi Rao,
As a matter of system design revenues must not be settled to assets under construction and/or regular assets.
Please see the note #741828 which explains the problem more detailed.
In some cases it is sufficient to maintain a "dummy" settlement rule (e.g. internal order as a receiver for the revenues) if the BALANCE of the revenue cost element in the settlement period is "0". The note #741828 advises in detail on how to proceed.
As a last resort the note also offers a coding change in case you do not want to follow the workaround (so that message KD561 is suppressed during settlement). You may thus remove the coding change again after you have successfully settled.
