Hi,

In test mode it is possible to limit the recalculation of an asset to a single depreciation area. This functionality is given to fasten the report runtime in a test run, because then only single areas have to be recalcuated. The result should then just show if there are assets which have currently wrong calculated values.

This limitation of an execution for a single depreciation area is not wanted in the productive run. If an asset has currently wrong calculated depreciation values, then a consistent state for the complete asset can only be reached by calculating all depreciation areas. This logic is furthermore similar to the recalculation of the asset values out of the asset master record maintenance. If asset values are recalculated in transaction AS02, then all depreciation areas are recalculated at the

same time. Transaction AFAR should provide the same service (when started productive) with the additional functionality that more assets can be recalculated subsequently at the same time.

Recalculation of single depreciation areas in productive mode is only designed to work in a special situation. This is when there are depreciation areas which have to be recalculated in closed fiscal years. In this situation, the depreciation values can be recalculated by opening one depreciation area for some years in the past, and then recalculate this single area. This is possible then if the prerequisites of note 646691 are given.

Hi Neha

Welcome to SDN!!

Execute AFAR with the selection parameters Fiscal year and Company code....

1st execute the program in Test mode and check the results.... Later on in background mode once you untick the test run indicator

Hi again,

i am sorry i did not inform you about this that the transaction AFAR is working fine in the test mode but when we are removing the test mode tick it is showing error " Selection not allowed in production run - program terminationu201D. we are inserting the required input like fiscal year and company code in test mode and as well as in executing in background.

please suggest what could be the probable reasons of error.

Many Thanks in advance,

Neha Agarwal.

Hi,

did you use other selection criteria as well (not only comp. code / from fiscal year)? Remove them and try again, I guess in test run its possible to use more detailed selection criteria than in production run.

Hi Neha

What Chris and myself said above holds good.. If that does not help you to resolve, please raise an OSS message

Just specify Comp code and FY 2010 in AFAR -> remove the TEST RUN tick -> and From Menu options choose "Execute in Background"

If this does not resolve, please raise an OSS msg to SAP
