Periodic Processing and Valuation
Unit Overview
The Periodic Processingunit provides an overview of periodicprocessing. In
additiontothedetailedpresentationofthedepreciationrun,youwillalsolearn
about other FI-AA closing activities, such as the fiscal year change and the
year-end closing.
Nodepreciationcanbepostedwithoutfirstcalculatingthedepreciationamounts.
Asaresult,thisunitexaminesindetailthetopicsofdepreciationkeysand(re-)
calculating the depreciation amounts.
Another focusof this unit is on a further, closer examination of the individual
depreciation areas and how to regulate them.
The unit ends with an example of how to map parallel accounting in Asset
Accounting. This involves the option of mapping with (additional) accounts,
known as the accounts approach.

Unit4: PeriodicProcessingandValuation AC305
Periodic processing comprises the tasks in Asset Accounting that must be
performed at periodic intervals.
If you want to plan primary costs on a cost center basis, you can periodically
determine planned depreciation and interest and pass these on to primary cost
planning in the CO system via a report.
Investment support is a subsidy that a company receives for certain asset
investments. Assetsthatareeligibleforsuchasubsidy aremarkedintheasset
master recordswith aninvestment supportkey. Allspecificationsforclaiming
theinvestmentsupportarestoredinthedefinitionofthiskey. Youcanpostthe
claim manually or in a mass procedure.
Inflation management is required in countries with high rates of inflation or
deflation.
You can now also use the Schedule Manager in FI-AA to define, schedule,
process, and control periodically recurring activities. To learn more about the
“closingtool”ScheduleManager,youcanattendtheSAPstandardcourseAC690.

Figure60: DepreciationTypes(DetermineforeachDepreciationArea)
Thesystemsupportsthefollowingdepreciationtypes:
• Ordinary depreciation
• special depreciation
• Unplanned depreciation
Ordinary depreciation: This is the planned reduction in asset value due to
normal wear and tear.
Special depreciation: This represents apurely tax-based typeof depreciation
for wear and tear. This form of depreciation usually allows for depreciating a
percentage of the asset value, and this percentage may be staggered within a
taxconcessionperiod, withouttakingtheactual wearandtear ontheasset into
consideration.
Unplanneddepreciation: Thisisconcernedwithunusualcircumstances,suchas
damagetotheasset,thatleadtoapermanentreductioninitsvalue.
Unit-of-productiondepreciation: Thisallowsyoutotakefluctuationsinactivity
intoaccountforthedepreciationcalculation. Itmakestheamountofdepreciation
dependent upon seasonal usage of the asset (example: Driven kilometers of a
truck or produced units of a machine).

particular chart of accounts.
• Theyallowyouto avoid theuseofanever-increasing numberof internal

Inagreatmany(German)casesthenewcalculationprogramcalculatestheexact
samedepreciationamountastheoldlogic–seeexampleontheslide.
Nonetheless,thenewwayofcalculatingdepreciation(=>nwcalsomentionsthe
use of the Depreciation Engine) does enable in principle a more exact and
precise calculation of depreciation amounts.
The new logic examines how long the same reference value (for example,
purchasevalueornetbookvalueofanasset)canbeassumedtobevalidwithina
fiscalyear. Ifthereisnotransactionontheasset,thedepreciationcalculationhas
thesamereferencevalueforoneyearandthecalculationusesexactlyoneperiod

changes each time and the system uses additional period intervals (depending
on the period control).

• Time-dependent depreciation terms
• Supportforan(automatic)changeovermethodtoperiod/months. However,
this is not a standard method, it must be implemented using the BAdI
