Issue No.: 34
The user wants to move assets to another class because the assets were created
under the wrong asset class. The old asset is capitalized on 08/01/2008. Since the
depreciation key is 000, there is no depreciation running for that asset.
Now the user wants to transfer the asset to another class, so the old asset is
removed (or may be retired) with an acquisition date of 08/01/2008, so that the
depreciation expenses can be calculated from 08/01/2008.
T his is a case of reclassification of assets. In transaction code ABUMN, = enter
the APC and the accumulated cost along with an asset value date of 08/01/2008.
In the receiver asset master screen, enter the desired depreciation key and the
depreciation start date.

I s it possible to integrate the sale of assets with the SD module? It will involve
some sales tax and also the client wants to generate an invoice in the SAP solution.
Can the SD module be used for this?
Follow these steps for selling assets with integration with the SD module:
1. Retire the asset without customer (T-code ABAON). This will credit the
APC and debit the clearing account (which is a P&L account).
2. Then take a nonvaluated material for asset sale purpose, and sell the same
using SD. Make sure you have a separate pricing procedure/SD document
type, etc., where the account key ERL will post to the clearing account
mentioned in step 1. You can collect sales tax/excise, etc., as usual.

W hile capitalizing assets, the user capitalized $10,000. During the
year-end process, the user realized he has wrongly capitalized $10,000 instead
of $7,000. Now the user wants to rectify this by posting a credit transaction
through transaction code F-90. While crediting, SAP R/3 returns the following
message: “acquisition value negative in the area 15.” What does this mean? How
can you solve this issue and correctly post the document? Is there any other
way to decapitalize an asset?
T o see the negative book value check box, you will have to first activate it in
→
the screen layout. To do this, go to Master Data Screen layout for Asset
depreciation areas, select the screen layout attached to the asset class to
which the asset in question belongs, and click on Field group rules. Here you
can make negative values optional.
If you want to allow the negative book value for all of the assets created in

areas Determine depreciation areas in the asset class. Select the asset
class, click on the depreciation area, and check the negative book value check
box.

While creating assets under asset class XXXX, the user is getting default
depreciation terms and the system does not allow changing depreciation terms.
The user does not want the default depreciation key. How can you resolve this
situation?
I t sounds as if the depreciation key has been set as the default for the asset class.
Check this in the IMG by doing the following:
1 . G o to the Depreciation Areas screen layout using T-code OA21 . This
transaction determines how fields of depreciation areas in the asset master
behave. This transaction code controls whether or not fields are editable.
2 . D etermine depreciation areas in an asset class using T-code OAYZ . This
transaction code determines screen layout of the asset class and depreciation
keys assigned to that asset class.

In AA the client has not closed the year 2005, and so 2006 cannot be closed. For
2005, there are errors and recalculations required for depreciation. However, if
this is done, it will hit the FI and figures submitted for 2005 will change in the
SAP solution. From an audit perspective, this cannot be permitted. How can
the user remedy this?
T he corrections must be made to enable you to close FI-AA for 2005 and carry
forward into 2006. If these corrections will significantly change your balance
sheet, you can “neutralize” them by posting manual entries to bring your overall
balance sheet back to what has already been reported, and then reverse these
in 2006. And convince your auditor accordingly.

The user is trying to post unplanned depreciation for an asset for depreciation
area 33, i.e., the depreciation area for group currency, using the transaction
type 643 and T-code ABAA. While posting, the following message pops up: “In
Dep. Area 01, you can post manual depreciation up to the amount 0.00 only.”
The assets explorer shows the net book value as $1800.
This error generally appears after posting the unplanned depreciation when
the net book value of those assets after considering the planned depreciation
becomes negative. Depreciation does not allow negative book values.
Issue No.: 40
When you retire an asset, you only want the depreciation that has been
posted to be reversed, i.e., accumulated depreciation up to the last month
has to be reversed. However, the system is also taking the current month’s
unplanned depreciation into consideration when reversing accumulated
depreciation and hence the profit and loss is calculated incorrectly. How can
this be changed?
You assign the period control method in the depreciation key. The period
control method controls how depreciation will be calculated during acquisition,
retirement, etc. Check the period control method assigned to your depreciation
key, which in turn is assigned to the asset master.

able to see fields in the General, Time dependent, and Allocations tabs, but is
not finding fields in the Depreciation Area tab. As a result, the user is unable
to specify the depreciation key and life of an asset.
1 . C heck your screen layout for depreciation areas (transaction code

Assume the following scenario in AA:
Life of the asset: 3 years
Original Cost: 60,000; Scrap Value: 15,000.
T he configuration was done in such a way that the SAP solution was taking
the original cost as the basis for calculating depreciation. Thus, it is calculating
depreciation as follows:
1st Year: 20,000
2nd Year: 20,000
3rd Year: 5,000

However, the user requirement is that depreciation should be calculated based
on original cost net of scrap value. That is, depreciation should be as follows:
1st Year: 15,000
2nd Year: 15,000
3rd Year: 15,000
T his could be achieved by using T-code AFAMA in SPRO by resetting (for
each depreciation key) the scrap value field as “Base Value is reduced by the
Scrap Value Amount.”

The user acquired his first set of assets in the month of February 2008 and is
trying to run depreciation starting from February. While running depreciation,
the system returns the following message: “According to the posting cycle,
you should post period 001 next. Either enter period 001, which corresponds
to the posting cycle, or request an unplanned posting run explicitly for this
parameter.”
I f your posting cycle is monthly, then your SAP solution expects depreciation
to run for every period in sequential order. So, you can’t run February until
you have completed the January depreciation run. Since you have acquired
assets in the month of February, you are not running depreciation for the
month of January. However, SAP R/3 is expecting you to run depreciation for
January also. To overcome this, you have to do one of the following: (1) run
depreciation for the month of January and then the month of February or
(2) select the unplanned posting run for February. The unplanned run lets you
skip over periods (in instances like this).

The user is configuring the depreciation key. He has a unique requirement for
calculating depreciation for the month of acquisition as well as retirement. Here
is the requirement:
If the asset is purchased from the 1st to the 15th of a month, the depreciation

of a month, then no depreciation for the month of purchase is calculated. However,
depreciation should be calculated for the full month for subsequent months.

A user needs help with the following situation:
S ome assets will be purchased for $50 million. Then, after using them for
12 years, they can be sold for $5 million. So, the depreciable basis needs to be
$45 million instead of $50 million over 12 years, or $3.750 million per year.
The method will be straight line. So at the end of the 12 years, the net book
value should be $5 million.
T he SAP R/3 system comes with two options to handle the scrap: (1) by defining
an absolute percentage or (2) by entering an absolute value.

3.5 COST CENTER ACCOUNTING (CCA)
Issue No.: 53
T he canteen cost center costs (for example, Rs. 10,000) were to be
allocated to other receiving cost centers with “No. of Employees” as the
statistical key figure. The canteen cost center also has some employees, so it is
becoming both the sender and the receiver for itself. The problem is that when
trying to allocate the costs through the distribution method, the system is first
allocating some portion of the costs (for example, Rs. 500) back to the canteen
cost center and then reallocating the costs to the other cost centers, so that in
the end, the debit and the credit balances for the canteen cost center is showing
+
Rs. 10,500 (10,000 500). When trying the assessment method, however, the
system is sending the portion of the canteen cost center costs back (Rs. 500), it
is not reallocating them to the other cost center, and the debit side is showing
Rs. 10,500 while the credit side is only showing Rs. 10,000.
When defining assessment, be sure to check the check box for iterative.
This will repeatedly allocate the costs to other cost centers until the balance
becomes zero.
