Invoice verification error for Asset Item

[former_member198972]

Dear Experts,

I'm facing a problem on Invoice verification for an Asset item. It had been imported from a foreign vendor in foreign currency through a C&F Agent. After receiving the Good in SAP by the warehouse, I have able to verify the invoice of the said vendor in foreign currency through T-code- MIRO, but for verifying the Customs Duty of the subsequent invoice, it occur an error message (Acquisition value negative in area 01.) for Posting. I have attached the screen shot of the error message. Please, help me regarding that. 

Regards,

Please check in asset master acquisition quantity & date all the details  acquisition value for depreciation area 01

Hello Shahin,

Please refer to the following information provided in the note 1025126:

The new depreciation calculation always checks for each posting
whether the fixed asset contains the plus/minus signs of the net
book value and the APC after the posting. This check is executed for
the total of all transactions, and also separately according to
prior-year acquisitions and current-year acquisitions.
Due to a special logic for down payments and down payment clearings,
the new depreciation calculation still allows the down payment
clearing. However, the system assumes that subsequent invoices have
higher amounts than the down payment clearing and rejects
acquisitions that are lower than the down payment clearing with
error message AA 617.
To perform the posting, set the "Negative Values Allowed" indicator
for the fixed asset in the areas of the fixed asset in the asset
master record.

Hope this helps to clarify the issue

regards

Ray

Hi Shahin,

You have to select as "All values allowed" for acquisition value for depreciation area 01. Or you can select the check box "Neg.values allowed" in the asset master record for dep.area 01.
