Depreciation ares

[Former Member]

Hello all,

I have a question regarding the depreciation ares. We have (besides the others) one for revaluations and one for statutory reporting. But what we want is the depreciation for a revaluated asses to finish at the same time as that in the statutory. How is that possible?

Regards,

Niki

let me explain a bit more in detail - the revaluation area posts the delta between the APC value and the "new" value and when you revalue an asset usually it is at some point during the lifecycle of the asset, not in the beggining hence you cannot simply put the same useful life for the revaluation. Anyway, the answer is quite simple, its available in SAP help - there is a "takeover between depreciation areas" - You can allow for depreciation areas to adopt APC, as well as depreciation terms, from another depreciation area. You can also specify that the takeover is mandatory, and that no changes are allowed. In this way, you ensure that two areas are always supplied with the same values when posting, or that two areas are uniformly depreciated.
