Asset transfer: depreciation posting question

Former Member

Hello Everyone,

My query is regarding Asset depreciation.

Few assets were transferred into SAP but the rate they were depreciating in the legacy system was not the same way as SAP is doing it now. The rate SAP is depreciating is correct . It's taking the capitalized amount/useful life. Now the asset life ends in dec. But the depreciation will not be 0 by end of this year.

So i am thinking of doing a intra company transfer and putting in the useful life as period 3. Will this work. Will the system take the balance and divide it in 3 parts .

If not how do I solve this problem. If depreciation at end of Dec will not be 0 . What steps can I take??

Thanks so much

Hi Roma,

You could create a new depreciation key that uses NBV/Rem Life.

This would then depreciate to nil by year end.

Kind regards

Try using manual depreciation to post an unplanned depreciation.

There is an unexpected permanent reduction in the worth of the asset that you have to post as unplanned depreciation.
