Acquisition values posting into parallel depreciation areas

[former_member188028]

Hello Friends,

We have following depreciation areas and areas need to post the transactions in respective depreciation area GL accounts.

1. Book Depreciation area(BDA)

2. Management Depreciation area(MDA)

3. IFRS Depreciation area(IDA)

I have assigned all the GL accounts for each depreciation area in transaction AO90 for acquisition, depreciation and retirement transactions. When I post the asset acquisition through transaction F-90, system posts the values only in BDA and remaining areas donu2019t have postings. If I scrap the asset through ABAVN, system posting the entries in the above 3 depreciation areas. So asset GL accounts for BDA, MDA & IDA have credit balances(ABAVN) and no debit balances except BDA(No postings through F-90).

Where should I change the settings, so that system can posts the acquisition values in MDA & IDA ?

Please give me some valid inputs on this.

Please check the following things.

1. AO90 GL mapping for the second dep. area

2. May be any cost object assignments are pending to the dep. area

3. Please check ASKBN, so that you can find the exact error

Thanks Murali for Your reply;

i checked , AO90, there is no problem in GL mapping.

There is no cost assignment objects pending.

when i execute the ASKB tcode, there is no error, system shows the Revaluation Retirement entry , which is correct and i can post that entry. but here is another entry which is also problem for me that, system also post APC value amount entry which is like this

Gain/Loss     Dr

Clearing Account    Cr

why system is posting above entry which is wrong.

Now, i in 1st scenarion , system is not posting 2nd entry automatically (Revaluation Area Retirement entry)

if i go to Tcode ASKB then i dont want above entry to be post.

Best Regards

Hi Murali,

do you use a limited transaction type for asset acquisition through transaction F-90?

Dear Bernhard,

I have used transaction type 100 External asset acquisition which is not limited to any depreciation area.

Please give me your valid inputs on this.

Hi, check in img Asset Accounting-Integration with the General Ledger-Define How Depreciation Areas Post to General Ledger

Double click on area 15 and 20 and see customizing for aquisition

[former_member188028]

Dear Alex,

Following values are appearing there.

0 Area Does Not Post

1 Area Posts in Realtime

2 Area Posts APC and Depreciation on Periodic Basis

3 Area Posts Depreciation Only

4 Area Posts APC Directly and Depreciation

5 Area Posts APC Only

6 Area Posts Only APC Directly

I have given option 4 to my MDA & IDA, for BDA it is 1.

Hi, is it always that acquisition for areas 15-20=0?Or it's rare case? I read somewhere, that sap doesn't recommend to use Direct posting for more then in one area because of technical issues.

You can try to limit transaction type 100 form eg. area 20, post and see the result

[former_member188028]

Dear Alex,

Thanks for your replies.

Please check the below practical scenario.

Book Depreciation area(BDA) useful life is 5 Years

Management Depreciation area(MDA) useful life 2 Years

At the Second year end for MDA, Asset value = Accumulated depreciation value

So, I can't continue these values for remaining 3 years as per BDA

I have to write off the Asset value for MDA through transaction ABAVN

ABAVN generating the postings correctly

So, the entry can be through ABAVN is.

Accumulated depreciation a/c Dr

to Asset a/c

If I go and check the asset balance in fbl3n, system displays the credit entry in the Asset GL account.

If system posts the entry at the time of acquisition also through F-90, then debit entry will appear for Asset GL account.

So through F-90 Debit entry

ABAVN Credit entry

Finally asset value and accumulated depreciation values are zero If we go and check in FBL3N or any FSV report.

But system is not posting the Acquisition entry for MDA in my case.

I hope I explained my problem very clearly.

The issue mentioned here, we are looking forward as solution for one of our requirement. That is, GL postings for retirement should be done in all areas but acquisition should only post in book depreciation area.

Please see my query on below link for more details and appreciate if you can help me.
