Hi Jainendra,

The following are the steps required to be performed during Depreciation run, depending on which industry you are.

1. Maintain Unit of Production(UOP) Figures (Txn Code: <b>S_ALR_87009161</b>)

2. Re-calculate Depreciation for UOP first in "<b>Test Mode</b>" and then in "<b>Production Mode</b>"(if there is a need for it). (Use Txn Code: <b>AFAR</b>).

3. Perform Manual Depreciation Adjustments(if needed). That is, Post unplanned depreciation. (Use Txn Code: <b>ABAA</b>)

4. Review the depreciation adjustment posted. (Use Txn Code: <b>AW01N</b>)

5. Perform Miscellaneous Adjustments(If required). That is, Post depreciation adjustment. (Use Txn Code: <b>ABSO</b>).

6. Review the depreciation adjustment posted. (Use Txn Code: <b>AW01N</b>).

7. Post manual depreciation(if required). (Use Txn Code: <b>ABMA</b>)

8. Review the depreciation adjustment posted. (Use Txn Code: <b>AW01N</b>).

9. Run depreciation first in <b>'Test mode'</b> and then in <b>'Production Mode'</b>. (Use Txn Code: <b>AFAB</b>).

10. Process Batch Session generated. (Use Txn Code: <b>SM35</b>).

Hi,

you can run the depreciation by using the T.Code : AFAB. Select your company code , year and the posting period. You can select the planned depreciation , when you follows the posting cycle i.e. 1st,2nd and 3 rd months. If it is unplanned posting run , system considers the depreciation run from the last run to the selected postings period.

Execute the same in test run, to view the proposal. you can check the error list and rectify the same. After rectifying the problem , remove the test run and run the depreciation through background job scheduling.

Hope this will help. Please assign points as way of thanks.

Thanks & Regards
