Hi Folks,
I hope all is well. I am a student at California State University of Sacramento and I am learning a lot about SAP. Fortunately, they offer SAP classes and I work in the Public Sector which also uses SAP. However, I am stumped and was hoping someone could guide me in the right direction.
Background story of the situation is this: I had created assets that were hitting the wrong G/L Account (2310) for Asset class 7000 / 7100 and I needed to break them down to lower GL accounts (2411 and 2414). So, I created new asset classes 7200, 7210, 7300, and 7310 pointing to the relative G/L Accounts. I need to transfer 23,000 Asset from asset Class 7000/7100 to 7200/7210 or 7300/7310.
So, to make the transfer I am using transaction code ABUMN - Transfer within company code. When I do this, everything transfers over correctly. However, I have to manaully do this 23,000~ times. So, I created an LSMW to mass create the assets. So, now i have 23,000~ unposted assets that I have created to replace the original assets and I want to use the LSMW to do the transfers. However, whenever I go through the LSMW Recording and I click "SAVE" nothing happens. It does not take me back to my main screen to upload to file and continue with the mass transfer.
So, I don't need help with using the LSMW or how it works, but I need help figuring out why ABUMN doens't save during the recording. I know that ABUMN does two things. 1) It retires the original assets and 2) it transfers the values to the new asset. So, ABUMN is a two-fold transaction. My theory is that the LSMW is not recognizing the Retirement transaction that occurs in the background and therefore does not save. However, I am new to SAP so I don't know.
Has anyone had success or know why my LSMW -> ABUMN will not save during the screen recording? Is there a way to force it to save? Should I upload screen shots of my process? Any help would be greatly appreciated.. let me know what you experts think and I will provide any information necessary.
Thanks,
Sincerely, your upcoming student expert in SAP (eventually).
