Catch up depreciation on a prior year

[former_member297683]

Dear Experts,

If the Capitalization Year and the Depreciation Start Year are the same, the system can do Catch-Up Depreciation.  For example, Capitalization Date is 01.10.2015 and Depreciation Start Date is 01.02.2015, depreciation will be computed starting 01.02.2015.  However, if the Depreciation Start Date is on a previous year, say 01.02.2014, it will not do catch-up but instead use the Capitalization Date (01.10.2015) as the depreciation starting point, instead of the real Depreciation Start Date (01.02.2014) since they are on a different year.

Can you please advise as to how to make the system do a catch-up depreciation even though it is on a prior year?

Dear Anay,

Check AFAMA transaction code, the depreciation key assigned to your asset area.

Find the Multilev.method assign to your dep. key:

On your multilevel, check the validity start for it:

Please, test it with "From capitalization date".

Best regards,

Thanks Gabriel for the reply. But if we test, as you said above from capitalizarion date then System will calculate it from capitalization date which we dont want,

We want system to calculate from real Depreciation Start Date (01.02.2014) .

I think ABNAN, post capitalization is the solution. I already explained the details in my earlier reply

Hi Anay

You should use ABNAN: Post Capitalization in such cases

Create Asset AS01 - With Post Capitalization Tick

And then do ABNAN

Hi Anay,

It is not possible to calculate the dep.from back date, if you capitalized in 01.10.2015. Here you have to post unplanned depreciation by ABAA for previous period missed depreciation.
