How to post values in different Depreciation Areas

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I have requirement from client for posting acquisition values to 2 different depreciation areas for legal reporting purpose and the SAP version is 4.7E.

Config is as below:

Transaction Code OADB:

Dep Area    Short Text

01              Post assets in General Ledger realtime

11              Post assets periodically in General Ledger

Transaction Code AO90:

Account Determination: 1000 (Building)

Dep. Area: 01:

Acquisition:Acquis. and production costs:  111001

Dep. Area: 11:

Acquisition:Acquis. and production costs:  991037

I have suggested them to execute transaction ABSO and post only in Dep area 11 and keep 0 in all other dep areas. They are able to post the transaction. Also, they have executed transaction ASKB. The GL accounts has been updated what is maintained in dep area 01 (111001) (which is standard SAP).

But, my clients wants values also to be affected to another GL (i.e., 991037) which has been maintained for dep area 11. Please help me how can I fulfill this requirement.

Please provide your valuable inputs at the earliest. Thank you for your support.

Best Regards,

Thauseef

Hi Thauseef,

1. Have you created a derived depreciation area?

2. Have you assigned the different ledger groups to both depreciation areas?

3. What type of GL is 991037?

Hi Thauseef,

When you run ASKB, system will update in dep.area 11?  Have you checked does it update or not?

Hi Mukhtar,

No. it has not updated. It was showing only depreciation GL account for dep area 11 and not acquisition GL account.

Is there any way to update values on the Acquisition GL account for depreciation area 11 once they have run the transaction ABSO.

Hi Thauseef,

You have to check below configuration settings for the dep.area 11.

1. In OADB, for posting in G/L have you selected the option "Area Posts APC and Depreciation on Periodic Basis"

2. Have you assigned acquisition & depreciation GL accounts in AO90.

Hi Mukthar,

I have done the below settings:

1. OADB: This seems to be correct.

2. AO90: Yes. I have assigned GL accounts for both acquisition and depreciation.

Hi Thauseef,

If you have maintained above settings, then system will post it. First have you posted by ABSO for dep.area 01. After done posting you have to run ASKB for dep.11. Have you done these?
