Use of movable asset Infotype 590

Hi All,
we need the "Maturity date" field as a modifiable field while
doing entry for use of movable assets in infotype "590 - Long term
reimbursements"
Plse give the solution.
Thanks in advance

HI,
Can change end date manually. plse tell me on this.
if my client wants change the end date because we done in configuration is 7yrs
some asstes are 3 years some of 5 years for this issue system is giving 7 years for all assets.
can you tell me any possiblility to change the date.
any new developement we can do or not.
Thanks

Change in Useful life of asset in mid year, but the previous posted depreciation should not be changed

Dear Experts,
I have a requirement in one of my client, We need to extend the useful life of asset in mid of an asset fiscal year and the depreciation which was posted in the previous should not be changed.
Requirement:
Useful life of asset is to be extended after completing depreciation for 4 years and in-between the current asset fiscal year. Provided the present asset value has to be taken as the new book value of the asset and the depreciation posted henceforth to be posted based on the new asset value till the remaining useful life.
Previously posted depreciation should be unchanged.
Analysis:
1.      The fiscal Year followed - October to September.
2.      The useful life of asset will be changed, and the depreciated value posted till 31/mar 2014 will have the old depreciation value ( based on the original acquisition value)
3.      The Depreciation key used in of type LINR (linear), depreciation value will be calculated based on the Book value till the asset value becomes ZERO at the end of useful life of the asset.
4.      We can change the useful life of the asset at the end of a Asset fiscal year say FY- 2014, if this is done the existing configuration will take the Book value of the asset at the end of the Fiscal as the asset value and the new depreciation will be calculated based on the new useful life of the asset. The asset value will become ZERO at the end of the newly changed Useful Life.
5.      But the requirement is that the useful life of the asset will be changed exactly half way in between existing Asset fiscal (i.e., 31/03/2014), if this is done system will change the depreciation value based on the new useful life ( since the Dep Key is LINR), but the depreciation value will change from the fiscal start say October 2013 to September 2014 ), which will not satisfy the requirement of the client. Since the depreciation which is already posted from October 2013 to March 2014 should not be changed.
Note:
1. We are not willing to retire the asset and create a new asset with the remaining book value as asset value and start depreciation.
Kindly let me know if the requirement can be fulfilled without retiring the asset.

Dear All,
This requirement has been completed.
1. I created New Multi level valuation method with base 26 ( Net book value w/o Revaluation ).
2. New depreciation key was created and the above method was assigned to it. I never changed the Base method.
3. new interval was created in the depreciation area, with this created dep key and extended the useful life of the asset. The depreciation was calculated according to the requirement.
Originally the asset had useful life of 5 Years, I changed the asset useful life to 8 years now with new Depreciation key 2001.
Depreciation was already posted to the asset till 04- 2013 for an amount of 148.27 SAR.
Net Book value carried forward to 2013 = 1575.56 SAR
Depreciation already posted till 4th period =   148.27 SAR
Current Net book value after useful life extension           = 1427.29 SAR .
Now the new depreciation key 2001 with Multilevel method 201, will take this Net-book value as Asset value and will depreciate along the useful life of the asset till it becomes zero.
Planned depreciation of 2013 ( remaining 6 months) = 166.24 SAR
Planned depreciation of 2014 = 225.96 SAR
Planned depreciation of 2015 = 225.96 SAR
Planned depreciation of 2016 = 225.96 SAR
Planned depreciation of 2017 = 225.96 SAR
Planned depreciation of 2018 = 225.96 SAR
Planned depreciation of 2019 = 131.25 SAR
Total      = 1427.29 SAR ( the Asset value becomes zero at the end of its remaining useful life.
The previously posted depreciation from 01.01.2013 to 30.04.2013 was untouched.

Useful Life in Asset Master

Hello
We have created one fixed asset with a capitalization date as 20.10.2004.
In the Depreciation Areas, we have given the Depreciation Starting Date as "01.01.2008"
and rate of Depreciation is 16.21%
userful life maintained in the master data is 5 Years
Total Asset Acquistion value is 85.04$. System calculated the depreciation till 20.10.2009 from 01.01.2008 @ 16.21%. After that, the system is not calculated the depreciation from 21.10.2009.
Based on the above points, our understandings are as follows:
(a) System considered the capitlization date + useful life period for depreciation calculation. Hence no planned depreciation is appearing in AW01N from 21.10.2009
(b) System considered the rate of depreciation based on depreciation key (16.21%) even thou, the useful life is maintained as 5 years
Does my observations are correct ? please comment
Besides, we need the following suggestions from you
Does it possible to increase the useful life in the fixed asset master (since, the life period is not expired and finance wants to consider the depreciation amount from 20.10.2009 onwards till the asset exprie)
If yes, what is the step by step procedure to carry such changes ?
Kindly revert
Regards
Anilkumar

youare saying corret But you should be follow some rules for calucation of deprecation
System considered the capitalization date + useful life period for depreciation calculation not only this
the system should be consideration the depreciation key , useful life , periods , ordinary depreciation for calculation depreciation and in depreciation areas tab in asset master we have to maintain like 1depreciation key 2.useful life 3.periods 4. ordinary depreciation start .if we give ordinary depreciation start date 21.10.2009 system will be calculated depreciation 21.10.2009 onwards. then only system can run depreciation plan wise in AW01N .
first we give the ordinary depreciation start date in depreciation area tab in asset master .system automatically will calculate depreciation from these date on words.
here Depreciation key determines for calculating the depreciation amount which controls the base method , period control method ,multiple method , decline balance method.
which is possible to increase the useful life in asset master and also we can run depreciation from 20.10.2009 onwards till expire asset
for this configuration
1.Go for AFAMS multiple method and give the parameters such as acciquistion year , periods
2.we have to activate depreciation key in AFAMA
3.in as02 in depreciation area tab here we have to give the depreciation key , useful life , periods , ordinary depreciation start date
I hope this is very useful

Using the same Asset Master Record for similar assets

Dear all,
I would like to ask if it is possible to use the same asset master record for multiple assets which are similar. The assets will be posted in different periods / fiscal years and therefore the depreciation would change and be charged according to the useful life of the individual assets posted to the same master record and which in turn will vary according to periods / fiscal year posted.
For example, an asset master record is created for Vehicles. The 1st vehicle with a useful life of 4 years is depreciated at the start of the year for 4 years. The second vehicle is purchased on 6 months after on the 1st June using the same asset master record. However the depreciation is not worked out over the same useful life of the previous vehicle but is extended for a further 6 periods. Is this possible and how is it done.
Many thanks for any feedback and help.
Thanks
PRG

Dear Peter
What is the issue in case you created separate Asset Master for each Vehcile ? Is there any specific need for you to accommodate all the assets in one single asset master ?
I don't think it is correct method as per Company's Act. Over and above, how would you plan for the Fixed Assets Register in the given situation ?

Function module to read the expired useful life of asset

Hi,
Is there a function module to read the expired useful life of asset. We are using the depriciation start date to calculate the expired useful life of asset, but the fiscal year shift and matching the calendar year with fiscal is causing the logic to give a month difference between the calculated value and the value in the asset.
Please let me know if there is a Function module or BAPI for getting the values. Kindly provide example for the function module call too.

Prabaharan.G

Hi,
Check the following function modules.

HR using multiple subtype using other new cutomized infotype.

Hello All,
I customize a new infotype which has its main infotype and the main infotype used the other customized infotype as subtype. Which makes the time constraint of the main infotype is T ( Time constraint is based on the subtype or subtype table ). Does anyone here knows whats the methodology use or step by step processes on how to customize infotype using multiple subtype?
Thank you all,

Hi
please tell me what is pupose of New infotype?
Why makes you to create IT with time constrain T?
You said you want to create subtypes subtype table is T591 T591S
If your want to create subtypes in infotype you must have created First field Data Element must be SUBTY
You can define subtypes in above said tables.
Regarding Time constraint T if you use this you need to create entries in the table t554 table

Useful Life for Assets and Asset Sub Numbers

I am just learning about SAP Asset Accounting, for an implementation project, and I have a question about the Useful life of an Asset Sub Number when setting up Assets with Asset Sub numbers.
Does the useful life of the Asset Sub number have to be the same as the useful life of the Asset Main number?
I would like to know if I can set up an Asset, such as a building, with the asset main number, that has a useful life of say 40 years, then create asset sub numbers for things like the HVAC system that has a useful life of say 15 years.
I am not sure if it would be better to use a group asset for this situation or not.
Thank you in advance for any help you can give me with this!
Amy Hay

Amy,
"Does the useful life of the Asset Sub number have to be the same as the useful life of the Asset Main number?"
No. A sub number can have completely different attributes from it's main asset (cost center, order, keys, UL...).
The situation you're describing is possible and from a design perspective it <i>can</i> be a good idea. Yes, you can create a main asset "Building" with a 40 year UL, but then have sub-assets for other major components (HVAC, Elevator, Security). This is one of the two types of design techniques for sub assets (a component based design). The other is based on the year of capital improvements. For instance, you could create a subasset "2007" and settle all projects related to capital improvements to that subasset. That way you would get visibility into capital acquisitions in FIAA reporting without having to goto CO or PS.
I would definitely <b>not</b> recommend using group assets. Group assets are used for composite depreciation scenarios and do more than just "group" similar records together.

Re-using the same asset with 'live link'

I have a project with the same asset (a line of text) that I re-use in 20 groups. It's the same text. I am tired of duplicating the text group for each new group that it's going in. Is there a better way where I can use the same asset and retain a 'link' to the initial asset and then if I change something ( e.g. text treatment) there, it will update all of the 20 groups it's used in? Thanks.

Clones will do what you ask. Clone the text as often as you need, and if you need to change the text, or the color it'll update all the clones.

Updating a table using a custom OM infotype

Hey gurus,
I have created a custom OM infotype HRP9608. I wish to use this infotype to update a table.
I marked it as an external, country specific infotype and blanked out the Database table from SM30 (table T777D)
I have also blanked out the FM. for tab name using SM30 (table T77ID) and added in Read Function and Primary Table.
The infotype gets created correctly, but when i add it as an external infotype the screen changes. Can someone please provide me with a solution.
Thanks.

Changing useful life of assets during asset to asset transfer

Hi All,
We need to transfer some assets to new assets changing its useful life. Below is my scenario.
Old Asset "A" has an useful life of 5 years and depreciation start date is 01.01.2006. Where this asset would be fully depreciated by the end of year 2011. The depreciation runs have been completed for November 2009.
Before using transaction ABUMN, I created a new asset "B" in a different asset class with the exact details of the old asset ONLY changing the useful life to 3 Years. (even the dep start date is 01.01.2006 - same as the old asset)
In Tcode ABUMN, I entered the old asset, doc date as 30.11.2009, posting date as 30.11.2009 and asset value date as 30.11.2009. Transfer variant 4 is been used in this case. The transaction went through successfully. The main idea behind this process was to depreciate the entire new asset "B" by the end of 2009, which should be the case as if 01.01.2006 is the dep start date with useful life of 3 years.
But this is not happenning. The entire depreciation is not been shown under plannned values for DEC 2009. Only a small value is shown. I need this asset to be fully depreciated by 31.12.2009 in variably absorbing the enire balance depreciation for the month of Dec 2009.
Please help me resolve this asap or please suggest me a different way of doing this if I am not doing it the right way.
Thanks & Regards,
Maleeq

Hi Kishore,
I need to change the asset class as well and thats why I need to to do the asset to asset transfer.

Changing useful life an asset and its impacts

Hi Gurus,
if we change the useful life of an asset, what are the steps do we follow ? do we need to post the write up first and then change the useful life ? can you detailed the steps and impacts on this change with exapmles.. pl
Venkat Rajesh Kumar

Hello Parul
Sorry but this functionality is only available as of release 6.0 if you have the
new depreciation engine activated. Note 965032 will provide you more details. In
particular section 4. c) Managing time-dependent depreciation parameters:
With the new depreciation calculation, you now have the option to
change depreciation terms during the fiscal year. This means that
the changed parameters are included in the calculation always
from the period for which the period is also valid.
The following depreciation terms can be maintained   time-dependently on the   fixed asset:
- Depreciation Keys
- Useful life
- scrap value/scrap value percentage rate
- variable depreciation portion

Debugging in "strict mode" while using external library assets

Hi everyone. A new ActionScript-3 user here with a question on strict mode.
   I have multiple Flash pages which use the same art assets. To support modularity and possibly decrease total download time, I have implemented this by placing the shared assets into the library of a shared .swf file (the other .swf files all load this shared .swf file). The shared .swf contains ActionScript routines to place instances of the assets onto the stage and to perform other common functionality.
   A drawback to this strategy is that, correct me if I'm wrong, "strict mode" can not be used to debug calls to functions which exist in external .swf files. That is, if the parent .swf makes a call to a function which is defined within an externally loaded .swf, that function call will be reported as an error in strict-mode because Flash is unaware of the contents of an external .swf at compile time (though it is aware at run-time.)
   My understanding is that shared code can be compiled under strict-mode if the shared code exists purely as an external .as file, not as an external .swf file. However, again please correct me if I'm wrong, art assets which are shared at run-time must exist in an external .swf file. Therefore, by my understanding, if run-time shared assets are desired, then strict mode will not properly compile the projects.
   Is my understanding correct?
   Thanks for any help,
     - Rashid

      Posting an update.
      I have since found a way to compile in strict mode a project which loads an external .swf and acesses its functions. This external swf is able to have a library of its own which is accessed in the external swf's own ActionScript.
      Unfortunately, the solution I have found increases the size of the project's compiled swf. If anyone knows of a way to solve this problem without increasing swf size, I would be quite grateful if you were to share your knowledge.
      Posted below is the solution I am aware of, which increases file size. In these steps, “main project” refers to the top-level Flash project which is attempting to load other swf's. “External project” refers to an swf which is to be loaded by the main project.
1) Publish the external projects as swc files. “Swc” is a class file, and is to be accessed by the main project when debugging under strict mode. The .swc presumably contains information about external project's library items which are to be exported for ActionScript.
      To create an .swc file, head to “File->Publish Settings...->Flash”. Check the “Export SWC” box.
2) In the main project, add the external projects' .swc files to the external library path. This is found in, “File->Publish Settings...->Flash->Settings->External library path”. Either individual swc files can be added here (via the SWC file button) or the name of the directory where they reside (via the Path button). Both approaches should work.
3) Somewhere in the main project's ActionScript, the external project is likely being loaded via a line of code similar to myLoaderObject.load( myURLRequest ). For this new approach, it is now necessary to make use of the second parameter to load(), the loader context. Here's the new line of code:
myLoaderObject.load( myURLRequest, new LoaderContext( false, ApplicationDomain.currentDomain ) );
      If the LoaderContext parameter is NOT passed, then Flash unfortunately shall not report this as an error. Instead, you may observe strange behavior when the external swf attempts to use its exported library items.
4) If the main project's code refers to the external project's class by name, then that class will need to be “import”ed into the main project's code. Without this, the compiler will complain about not recognizing the class.
5) In the main project, edit “File->Publish Settings...->Flash->Settings->Source path”. Add the path to the external project's .as class file. Without this, the main project shall give a run-time error of not being able to find the external class.
   This final step, 5, is what increases the size of the main project's swf. I have a project with a few nested .swf loads, and the main project's swf increased by about 10Kb when using this solution.
      This does not seem proper. That is, one would desire the sizes of the final swf's to remain unchanged regardless of the level of compile-time error reporting. If my interpretation of an .swc class file is correct, then it seems logical to presume that step 5 above should not even be necessary, because the class information is given to the compiler/debugger through the .swc.
   Anyone know what I am doing wrong, or otherwise how to get around this problem?
   Thanks bunches.

Problem with decimal fields using BADI For PD Infotypes

Hi,
I'm implementing BADI HRBAS00INFTY.
For reading the fields of infotype , I'm using the substring
of the field NEW_INNNN-VDATA .
I have a problem with fields of type DEC.
In field NEW_INNNN-VDATA it looks like this : '####'
I believe that the possible reason for this is conversion from DEC to CHAR
But I don't know how to fix it.
Thank you .
Message was edited by: Alon Lozinsky

Hi Alon,
We had same issue. Use following code.
data: hri1011_str type hri1011.
move new_innnn-vdata to hri1011_str.
HRI1011_STR fields will have decimal values.
Let me know if you still have any issues. If solution works, kindly do Point Recognition.

Is it worth using select query on infotype tables

Hi Experts,
I might be posting in the wrong column, but i just need to know is it worth using a select query on Infotype tables (PAxxxx)?? or should we prefer using the function modules for data fetching?
If select is not suggested, what is the reason for that?
Rgds
Prateek

Hi ,
Its not said that u cant write select on PAXXXX tables . Yes of couse LDB are there to fetch the data but it depends on
the requirement when to write a select and when to consider using in LDB .
Generally when you are looking at say 8 to 10 tables of infotypes with free selection , then LDB is suggested to fetch the data .
if you are looking to fetch the data for say some tables for a restricted selection (where clause) then select is used .
If i want to write a program using select only then fetching data from infotypes tables for large no of records will lead to
more time consumption which becomes easier in LDB as they are fetched in hierarchy level based on keys .
Normally it will be a combination of LDB and select querys in the development scenario

Vijay.
