Asset sale during legacy data transfer period

[Former Member]

Dear all my friend,

I am now going to migrate asset master into system.

there are some cases which asset has been sales partially before migrate into SAP.

for ex :

acquisition amount : 10000 currency unit

acc. depreciation before fiscal year : 2000 currency unit

depreciation amount posted in current fiscal year : 200 currency unit

asset sale (partially sale) in last month : 300 currency unit

should i migrate into SAP as

acquisition amount : 9700 (10000-300) currency unit

acc. depreciation before fiscal year : 2000 currency unit

depreciation amount posted in current fiscal year : 200 currency unit

or

acquisition amount : 10000 currency unit

acc. depreciation before fiscal year : 2000 currency unit

depreciation amount posted in current fiscal year : 200 currency unit

then, add more asset retirement

asset sale (partially sale) in last month : 300 currency unit

Please help to share me, which way is better !?

many thanks !

Hello Quoc,

the question is: are you migrating during the fiscal year or with the beginning of a fiscal year?

Migration with beginning of the fiscal year: i would like to recommend you to migrate 9.700....

The reason for this is the asset history sheet. The old system ends with 9.700 so SAP has to start with 9.700. If you start with 10.000 you will even have to enter a retirement, and this retirement will be displayed in the asset history sheet. But you have no retirement because the movement is in the last fiscal year.

If you migrate during the fiscal year you have to start with 10.000 and enter a retirement because the movement has to be shown in the current asset history sheet.

Hope this gives you a little help.

Best regards
