Asset used by two cost centers

[Former Member]

Hi,

Can some one please explain me if one asset is related to more than one cost center, how the expencess and depriciation is allocated to all related cost centers?

I believe In asset master we can give only one cost center.

Will there be a split entry at the time of aquisition?

Your help is much apriciated.

thank you

Hi

Std SAP does not allow to post asset or depreciation in more than one cost centre. If at all you need to post a depreciation in more than 1 cost centre you need to post first in a pooled cost centre which will work as suspense a/c and then go for assessment or distribution. By doing this suspense a/c becomes zero and expenses will be posted to your desired cost centres

Hi srinivas,

but thats bit too much for the end users.

Is there any other alternative you can think of?

Thanks again

Hi Vivek,

You can have a main and sub asset. Post a part on the main and the rest on the sub.

In the reports you can say that you want to see the values by main numbers only
