Depreciation start date of Asset Transfer

1281 Views

Hi SAP experts,

My client has a case that they had an AuC transfer to asset from 31st May 2016. Due to delay from constructor, they receive the invoice and finalization document for AuC in 15th Jun 2016. For accounting report purpose, they recorded the new Asset Value date at 15th Jun 2016, but want to calculate the Depreciation from 31st May 2016 (the actual start date).

In addition, they used Daily Depreciation, so I chose “Dep. to the day” in AFAMA.


I create an asset master data for the new asset and set the Ordinary Depreciation Start Date = 31st May 2015. When transfer from AuC, using ABUMN (because of circumstances, we could not use AIAB/AIBU), the Asset value date = 15th June 2016. When run Depreciation in Jun, the Depreciation just calculated from 15th Jun 2016 not from 31stMay (it start depreciate from asset value date, not the O.Depr start date)


But when I create an asset master with the same setting for O.Depr start date, and use ABZON to post acquisition value with asset value date = 15th Jun 2016. When run Depreciation in Jun, the Depreciation of this asset calculated from 31st May(the O.Depr start date), depreciation of 1 day in May was added to Amount TBP of Jun.


Please help me explain:

  1. 1. Why there are difference between those 2 asset (one from transfer and one directly post acquisition)
  2. 2. How can I change the configuration so the transferred asset start depreciation from O.depr start date

The attachment is the config of depreciation key for your reference


Best regards.
