Depreciation

[Former Member]

Hi

We have an issue. Our project went live on 01/01/2007. During upload we have forgot to upload few assets. Later on we have found them and depreciated in legacy system. Now we want to bring them into SAP. How can we achieve this.

Our client want to bring asset value,accumilated depreciation,and depreciation expenses.

Any input will be rewarded

Hi,

If your fiscal year is calendar year you need not to change the

Asset Legacy transfrer date would be 31/12/06 or 01/01/2007.

Using AS91, you can post the asset value and accumulated dep. value upto 31/12/06. when you do the next dep.run (AFAB) system automatically calculate the dep. for the period 01/01/07 to till the period you run(may be 30/09/07 or 31/10/07) and will post it.

Hi Vani,

Good Morning.

As your project went live on 01/01/2007.

Asset Legacy transfrer date would be 31/12/06 or 01/01/2007

Now you just change the transfer date to 31/09/07 (T-code: Spro>FA>AA>Asset data transfers> Parameter fror data transfer>date specification>Specify transfer date

For your co code set the transfer date

and Using AS91 upload those assets

Acquisiton Value : Actual acquition value

Acc Dep: Depreciation till last Fiscal year

Depreciation Psoted upto: here you give the 9 months depreciaton what you posted in legacy system

Hope this helps you

Hi Ramesh

Will it accept the 9 months depreciation? if it accept that can i see monthly break up of it. Will it effect Depreciation and accumilated depreciation accounts automatically? if it doesnt? How can we give the desired effect to those gl accounts

Thanks

Hi,

Good afternoon and greetings,

You set the date for Legacy Transfer to the start of current month in customization. Using AS91, you can capitalize it as of today with Gross Value, Accumulated depreciation and change the useful life to (Actual Useful life - No.of months that was depreciated in the legacy system) and then reset the Legacy Transfer Date to original date.

NOTE: PLEASE DONT FORGET TO RESET THE LEGACY DATE IN CUSTOMIZATION OR ELSE YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SEE THE ASSET HISTORY SHEET PROPERLY.

Please reward points if found useful

Thanking you

With kindest regards
