AS02 Change Business Area

Posted on May 03, 2011 at 08:10 AM 159 Views

Dear all,

I would like to transfer an asset from 1 cost center to new cost center which is crossing business area.

i had searched through forum and found there are only 2 ways to maintain this.

i would like to maintain same asset number for this transfer, therefore i activate iMG > Specify Time-Independent Management of Organiz. Units.

However when i change this using AS02, error message shown F5 814 "Document Type not defined".

Kindly advise on the necessary config...

    Dear expert,

    There are existing document type and transaction type for asset to be transfer across business area.

    Checkbox had been selected for particular company code using IMG > Specify Time-Independent Management of Organiz. Units.

    Is there any other IMG config that need to be set other than as mentioned above?

    How to solve issue of error message F5 814 "Document Type not defined" when changing cost center and business area in asset master (AS02)?

      Issue resolved.

      Solution:

      1) Default transaction type used by AS02 is set in IMG>FI>AA>Transactions>Specify Default Transaction Types for Transfer From (ABUM).

      2) Assign default document type for transaction type used

      3) (Optional) Default posting date / document date / asset value date is system date, may used substitution rule (GGB1) in application area AM (Asset Accounting) callup point 6 (Transfer Organizational Units) for subtitution, and assign this substitution into IMG>FI>AA>Master Data>Define Substitution - Define substitution for automatic transfers.

    Hi

    Please check the content of online help documents for the IMG customizing: Asset Accounting -> Master Data -> Specify Time-Independent Management of Organiz. Units:

    You need to make this specification if the following applies: You want to be able to change the assignment to a business area or cost center using a simple master data transaction, although you create balance sheets at the business area level or profit center level. The system then automatically creates a transfer document when you make this master data change to the business area or cost center

    That means you have to define a document type for the transfer document created by above activity.

    Best regards

    George

      There is existing document type and transaction type which can be posted using ABSO_OLD or ABUMN.

      How to assign this in configuration in order for auto posting?

      I had configured in IMG only for tick checkbox IMG customizing: Asset Accounting -> Master Data -> Specify Time-Independent Management of Organiz. Units
