New Depreciation Area - Depreciation Calculation

January 20, 2016, 12:40 pm
$
0

Hi. I am not a functional guy, so I might be asking something many of you already know, but I can't figure it out... so here I go.

My tax department wants to create a new depreciation area for California (let say area 41), it will be similar to another depreciation area (let say 40), but some asset classes will have different depreciation key and most of the asset classes will have different useful life.

I was able to create new depreciation area by copying area 40.

I used OADB, OABC, OAYZ and AFBN to create, activate and open new depreciation area.

My problem is existing asset is depreciating based on area 40 instead of 41.

How can I change, so that area 41 is depreciate based on useful life of 41?

Example:

Asset 101 was 1/1/2010 at $100,000.

Useful life of area 40 is 10 years.

So, fiscal year 2016 (Jan 2016) starting netbook value is $40,000 and ordinary depreciation is -$60,000.

 

Now, depreciation area 41's useful life is 20 years.

What tax department want to see is depreciation based on 20 years...meaning

fiscal year 2015 starting netbook value should be $70,000 and ordinary depreciation should be $-30,000.

 

Is this possible?

How can I achieve this?

 

Thanks  for any help you can give.

Hello Experts ,My client has a requirement to split fixed assets to many assets.That one asset will be split to 5 to 6 assets.

 

I searched the whole forum but didn't get the proper solution of this problem anywhere. So that's why I'm posting this issue.

 

For Example I have a Asset A and I want to split the Asset A into Asset B , Asset C ,Asset D,Asset E

Suppose, Asset A has a value of $ 10000 , now I have to split Asset B - $ 4000 , Asset C - $ 1000, Asset D - $2000, Asset E- $ 3000.

 

 

So Please guide me how to do this in SAP.

AS92 LSMW for different company codes - ANTBR alsways different

January 21, 2016, 9:03 am

Hi Folks,

 

 

I have a tricky question and I'd like to share with you.

 

I need to change certain "Takeover Values" for old assets in different company codes. Therefore I usually use TA AS92. As I need to change about 80k assets I thought about using LSMW.

I've created LSMW by taking one of the company codes as an example (CoCo 1000) to do the field mapping. I ran the LSMW and everything worked fine for the one company code I used as an example.

 

Then I wanted to test my LSMW by using an asset from a different company code in the same client. Unfortunately I figured out that the fields (ANBTR) seems not to be connected to the depreciation area.

 

Explanation / Example: As you can see in the attachment for CoCo 1000 I need to use field "ANTBR04_01" to upload "Cumulated acquis. val." into depreciation area 90. But in CoCo WL01 I need to use field "ANTBR05_01" to upload "Cumulated acquis. val."into depreciation area 90 (CoCo 1000 and WL01 are in the same client).

As a consequence I can't use my LSMW for company code WL01 as I would upload into the wrong depreciation area.

 

Does anyone has an idea why this happens and how I can work around?

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

We are trying to create fixed assets using BAPI "BAPI_FIXEDASSET_CREATE1" and we need to populate some custom-specific fields

of BAPI_TE_ANLU structure (ANLU table), but the standard structure BAPIPAREX has a length of 990 positions instead of the 1822 settled in BAPI_TE_ANLU (there are two appends in that structure).

 

Could anyone, please, help us to find a solution and fill those customer fields? Is there any BAdi or any way to select the values we want to transfer form BAPI_TE_ANLU?

 

Many thanks in advance.

 

Best regards,

asset useful life change

Hello all,

 

Our client requirement is , they want to change the all Assets useful life, so the changes should effect from Jan-2016 (their calendar year is jan-dec).

 

In their system closed asset year is 2014(OAAQ).

 

So, if we change the useful life now in 2016-jan, even though depreciation posted till 2015-december, as I know once we change useful life, system recalculates depreciation and the changes will effect in 2015 December as planned depreciation(due to asset fiscal year is open 2015).

 

I guess only solution is , we need to close 2015 Asset fiscal year to effect the changes from 2016-jan. (with out effect the new depreciation in 2015).

 

 

Kindly share your thoughts..

 

 

 

Thanks in advance..

New method in depreciation calculation process

January 25, 2016, 8:10 am

Hi

 

One of my clients required changing their depreciation calculation process.They are using SLM Depreciation method.

 

They want to change the depreciation calculation method. I have mentioned below the current calculation and the required calculation. I have understood that the business needs to increase the Net Book Value of Assets.

 

 

Current calculation:
Opening Net book value26,03,404.68
Plus APC transactions53,238.80
Plus Revaluation APC13,15,347.22
Plus Revaluation ord.dep4,90,498.30
subtotal44,62,489.00
divided by Remaining life30
= Ordinary depreciation-148,749.63
Closing Net book value43,13,739.37

Opening NBV + APR+ Reval = Subtotal + depreciation (calculated as Subtotal divided by remaining life) = Closing NBV


 

Required calculation:
Opening Net book value26,03,404.68
divided by Remaining life30
= Ordinary depreciation-86,780.16
Plus APC transactions53,238.80
Plus Revaluation APC13,15,347.22
Plus Revaluation ord.dep4,90,498.30
Closing Net book value43,75,708.84

 

Opening NBV + depreciation (calculated as Opening NBV divided by remaining life + APR + Reval = Closing NBV

 

 

Note: no new depreciation area is required, no new General Ledger codes - we simply require that the calculation of Ordinary depreciation be changed.


Could you please suggest a solution to achieve this.


Thanks and Regards

Posting Transaction Is Not Allowed (Value Date Not Allowed)

January 19, 2016, 12:41 am

Dear Experts,

 

We try to post asset acquisition for asset that has been retired by using the Asset Value Date similar to Deactivation Date (retirement date). The scenario is as follow:

 

  • Asset purchased via PO: 10 qty
  • 1st partial GRN: 6 qty
  • 2nd partial GRN: 4 qty - this is where the above error message is prompted.

 

Actually we're using portal as our platform (not GUI) and there's a Z* program in place for asset transfer via ABUMN. Steps producing the process are as follow:

 

  1. At first, in PO only 1 asset number is entered at account assignment (let's call it as principle). There's a limitation in our portal whereby only 1 asset can be entered in PO (due to interface from 3rd party program).
  2. Upon 1st GRN (partial of 6 qty), the principle asset will be used to collect the total costs then the Z* program will transferred out equally to the newly created assets.
  3. Then, on the subsequent GRN (partial 4 qty), again the principle asset will be used to collect the total costs, however, this is where the error message is prompted.

 

Is there a way to allow subsequent acquisition for the principle asset on the same value date. We understand that in MM-GRN, Posting Date is used as Asset Value Date. If only this can be changed, then our portal and Z* program will succeed.

 

Let me know if you need more information.

 

Many thanks,

How To Use ABCO For Exchange Rate Adjustment

Hello friends,

 

I have an asset which is managed in COP currency in area 01. Every posting on this area affects area 08 (PEN) and area 09 (USD). I posted a down payment for the asset and then cleared it.

 

After that down payment line on AW01N show zero for area 01, but when i look to areas 08 and 09 there is an amount 0.07 PEN and 1.12 USD, this amounts come from the exchage rate from the clearing document from the down payment.

 

I know i can use ABCO for doing the adjustment on these areas but i don't know which transaction type i have to use.

 

Please, i will appreciate your advice.

Changing Useful life of an asset

Hi Experts,

 

I have an asset whose life will end in Dec 2016 but my client want it to be fully depreciated by march 2016.

 

I heard from some one that if we change the useful life in P1 of any fiscal year , the depreciation amount will be equally calculated as per the useful life.

 

Is that correct??

 

My question is if I need to fully depreciate the asset by March, how much do i need to enter in useful life column, is it  3 months  or 1 year 3 months (as this asset capitalized in Dec 2014).

 

I do not have ERS & ERQ access to test also I am not able to change the useful life in production as the 2015 table are still not closed.

 

Your help is highly appreciated.

 

Thanks

There is only a hierarchical view which is difficult to export to xls table format.

When I click "ALV format" in selection screen got message "Use of ALV grid not supported for hierarchical lists!

Or there might be another non-hierarch. report for asset acquistion for AuC? (AuC/value/Inves.order/tr.type)

Changes in Asset classes and Master Data/Componentization/IFRS

Dear Experts,

 

Discussion is on Asset Accounting

 

I have been involved in a fresh implementation (India) on SAP S/4 HANA 1511. Business does not have its asset register as per IFRS requirement, but they want to go with as IFRS compliance for asset accounting.

 

I am not sure what changes I will have to do for this requirement.

 

1. How break up for Asset Classes will be done considering IFRS. Where I need to pay attention in this regard?

2. How Asset master will be created (considering componentization as per IFRS). Where I need to pay attention in this regard?

3. How I should explain this to business so that they can make a current asset register (excel) as per IFRS componentization wise.

 

 

Please Consider while reply:

 

1. Business does not have any foreign link/reporting. it is pure Indian company.

2. Business does not have current asset as per IFRS.

 

 

I have searched forum and found this link. My query is not resolved with this.

Depreciation Key that depreciates once a year on February

January 11, 2016, 12:24 pm

Dear SAP experts,

 

I have been required to configure a new Depreciation key that has the following Scheme.

It will be configured in such way that the assets will only depreciate once a year on February, like this:

 

o 1st year: 33% in february or Acquisition month.

o 2nd year: 33% in february

o 3rd year: 33% in february


The depreciation key will be applied to assets with 3 years of use life.

 

I'm not really an expert in AM... so this kind of scheme is new to me.

 

I have tried two methods:

 

1) I have tried creating a depreciation key and playing with the period controls and calendar assignments but haven't been able to obtain the desired results (maybe I'm doing it wrong).

 

period.png

 

2) I also tried using an Enhacement. I made a small piece of code inside one of the methods of the BADI that changes the amounts to the desired ones, and the system seems to apply the depreciation correctly for February. But for some reason it reverses it the following month so the yearly depreciation ends up being zero.

 

badi.png

 

Result:

 

activo.png

 

So the question would be:

 

1)      ¿Is there a means to solve this scenario using standard customizing? ¿What could I be doing wrong?

2)      If there is not... then, ¿What could be the reason for the system automatically reversing the calculated depreciation the following month when using my Enhancement code?

 

Thank you all very much for your support.

Dear Experts,

 

We have changed our organization on 2016/01/01, but our user use AS02 to change business area on 2016/02/01. When she saved the asset, system posted an accounting doc on 2016/02/01 automatically for org. unit change. She said she wants to post it on 2016/1/31, so I made a substitution for her to make other assets change on 2016/1/31. But the first asset document cannot be reversed by AB08.

We cannot change business unit nor cost center master. How can I do to reverse the first account/asset doc and post it to 2016/1/31?

Change in Useful life, Dep Start date in Asset Impairment scenario

February 2, 2016, 5:59 am
$

Hi Sap Experts,

 

1.Asset useful life replaced with remaining life , Dep Start date changed to 1/1/2016

 

2. Asset impaired ( ABAW) twice wrongly (APC revised and Accumulated Dep as on 12/31/2015 reversed fully)

    Doc date - 1/1/2016, Posting Date, 1/30/2016, Trn type, X90, Asset val date 1/1/2016,

     Amount Posted 148785; Rev.O.dep. PrY - 83528

 

3. Asset Impairment done again wrongly ( step 2 repeated)

 

4.Reversed the duplication (ABAW) using X92 Trans type

 

5.Issue - Revised APC value is fully being depreciated in 2016 , instead of spreading to the revised useful life.

 

6.To overcome the above issue, we reversed step 2

 

7. Again entered step 2 as below

    Doc date - 1/1/2016, Posting Date, 1/30/2016, Trn type, X90, Asset val date 1/1/2016,

     Amount Posted 148785; Rev.O.dep. PrY - 83528; Reval.repl.val - 148785

8. Change the Asset master Dep Start date 12/31/2015.

    If we keep the dep start date as 1/1/2016, same issue as poin5 is continuing hence changed.

 

Now the depreciation is spreading correctly , however period 1 and period 2,

previous year depreciation is computing for 2 months and reversing in period 3.

May I know why this inconsistency?

 

Please share your thoughts
