Fixed Asset – Create Main Asset (Asynchronous)

Technical name: FAA_FIXED_ASSET_CREATE_MAIN_WEBI

Prerequisites: If you want to activate this inbound service, you also have to activate the corresponding outbound service Fixed Asset – Create Main Asset (Asynchronous) Confirmation (CO_FAA_MD_ESR_CREATE_MAIN_CONF_SPRX).

This asynchronous inbound service enables you to create main asset numbers for asset master records.

The service contains the nodes that are necessary to create a main asset number, including the following nodes: Company code, asset class, information about the origin of the asset, account assignment, ledger information, valuation information, and time-based valuation information.

If there are any issues when the main asset number is created, the system displays error messages in the response.

Fixed Asset – Create Sub Asset (Asynchronous)

Technical name: FAA_FIXED_ASSET_CREATE_SUB_WEBI

Prerequisites: If you want to activate this inbound service, you also have to activate the corresponding outbound service Fixed Asset – Create Sub Asset (Asynchronous) Confirmation (CO_FAA_MD_ESR_CREATE_SUB_CONF_SPRX).

This asynchronous inbound service enables you to create asset subnumbers for asset master records.

The service contains the nodes that are necessary to create an asset subnumber, including the following nodes: Company code, main asset number, information about the origin of the sub asset, account assignment, ledger information, valuation information, and time-based valuation information.

If there are any issues when the asset subnumber is created, the system displays error messages in the response.

Fixed Asset – Change (Asynchronous)

Technical name: FAA_FIXED_ASSET_CHANGE_WEBI

Prerequisites: If you want to activate this inbound service, you also have to activate the corresponding outbound service Fixed Asset – Change (Asynchronous) Confirmation (CO_FAA_MD_ESR_CHANGE_CONF_SPRX).

This asynchronous inbound service enables you to change asset master records.

The service contains the nodes that are necessary to change an asset master record, including the following nodes: Company code, main asset number, asset subnumber, information about the origin of the asset, account assignment, ledger information, valuation information, and time-based valuation information.

If there are any issues when the asset master record is changed, the system displays error messages in the response.

Tip: You can add custom fields in Business Context FAA_ASSET_MASTER_DATA (Fixed Asset Master Data) and extend this service with these custom fields according to your business needs.
