Period Control Assets Depreciation

[Former Member]

Hello,

I want to ask you something about depreciation period control. I have to configure a type of depreciation for which the start date to be exactly after one year since the date of acquisition (exactly 12 months) so far I did not come to a solution for this problem the period control that is standard mentioned that the start to be at the beginning of a year but not after exact 12 months. Can you please help me in configuring this period control way.

Ex: asset Value 1000 $ acquisition date 01.02.2009 the period control would have to make this asset to be depreciated starting with 01.02.2010

Thank you!

Hi Silvia Streche ,

After creation of asset, go to AS02 of that asset and change the depreciation start date to next years date. Then see the depreciation calculation.

There is no previllage in SAP for this.

Thank you for the quick answer. In fact I did not want to do this I was thinking that by making a new period control it will work. I have tried to copy form the standard period control (half year, start year) but it does not work. I do not want the user to do this I would like to be posted at the acquisition transaction.

At the moment I have to configure an accelerated method for Romania 50% in the first year (for exactly 12 months) and straight-line for the remaining useful life after this 12 months. I have made a special depreciation with one level for one year 50% but I have activated also the start of special depreciation in order to specify the exact date of starting and also straight-line depreciation needs to start after one year exactly. I can not make this at the moment and the only idea was the period control. In my straight-line depreciation the level it is just one 999-99-12-24 in this case the ordinary depreciation starts in the same date as the special one which is incorrect. I need something to be done in configuration not manually.

If you can help me in this problem it will be useful for me.

Thank you!!
