If the transaction happens in different fiscal year, would SAP calculates the same? Example Asset was acquired on 01.10.2008 = USD100,000. Fiscal year = 31.12.2008. Asset was disposed on 01.04.2009 = USD40,000.

Hi Nathan,
In our case currently the Period Factor for 1 month out of 12 months is saved as 0.08300 (i.e.1/12). Since the value of assets are very high, we want nearest approximation so as to get the nearest value of depreciation. For example, in this case ronding like 0.0833333 instead of 0.08300.
Similar rounding extension is also required for Percentage.
How can this be achived? Please help.
Thanks,
Bijay

Dear Nathan ,
Request your kind help on the below issue we are facing ..
We are having an old asset , which had only one depreciation area IFRS . However , later all the new assets have 3 depreciation areas including GAAP and TAX ledgers . We did the transfer from the old asset to the new asset using ABUMN , where by all the values of the IFRS depreciation area got copied to the IFRS depreciation area in the new asset . When this transfer was done , there is also a value adjustment posted to the new asset ( This is the total value of the depreciation that was posted on the old asset so far ) .
As the Business wanted to have all the 3 depreciation areas in the new asset to have same APC values and depreciation , we did transfer the APC postings to the GAAP and TAX ledgers only , using transaction ABZON ( This APC value is the same as that of IFRS depreciation area ) . However , there is no value adjustment that can be posted to these two depreciation areas . In order to post this value adjustment ( which was only posted to the IFRS depreciation area ) in the new Asset , Business posted an unplanned depreciation amount only to the LOCAL and TAX ledgers so that the APC values and depreciation remain equal in all the three areas .
However , now the depreciation amounts calculated in IFRS and LOCAL,TAX ledgers are different . For the LOCAL and TAX ledgers, the system is calculating the depreciation based only on the APC value , whereas for the IFRS depreciation area , the depreciation is calculated based on the ( APC value - Value Adjustment ) even though we are using the same depreciation key in all the 3 areas ( which is straight line depreciation ) .
We are using new asset accounting .
Thanks ,
Srikanth
