  4. General Ledger Assets Liabilities 1000 1000 Asset account Vendor 1000 1000 Overview: Asset Accounting as a Sub-Ledger Asset Accounting is a subsidiary ledger of Financial Accounting. The appropriate General Ledger accounts are updated each time you post.

  5. Overview: Asset Classes • The asset class is used to: • sub-classify the General ledger accounts and • group master records by specific criteria.

  9. Functions of the Asset Class • The asset class contains default values and control elements which are passed on to the individual assets when you open a new asset master record. • By entering useful default values, you reduce time and effort needed for creating new asset master records. You also ensure that the records in a given class are handled uniformly. • The asset class is the most important criteria for structuring fixed assets from an accounting point of view. Every asset has to be assigned to exactly one asset class. The asset class is used to assign the assets (and their business transactions) to the correct general ledger accounts. The most important tasks of the asset classes are: • The assignment of default values when creating assets (particularly depreciation terms) • The grouping of assets for reporting purposes

  12. Points from the Asset Class / Dep’n Slide • The Chart of Depreciation is assigned to company code, therefore a class may have multiple Charts of Depreciation relevant to it. • The asset classes are valid across company codes. The catalog of asset classes, therefore, applies uniformly to all company codes. This is true, even if the company codes use different charts of depreciation, and therefore different depreciation areas • You can assign different charts of depreciation to an asset class, so that all assets in this class will be treated differently in each country.

  13. Special Asset Class: AuC Transaction type groups Class: Assets u. const. 15 Down payment Extras 16 Down payment carried forward from previous years • AuC managed as total • line item settlement • capital investment measure AuC status depreciation areas deprec.key depreciation is not calculated in depreciation areas intended for the balance sheet Book dep. 0000 Tax dep. 0000 Cost-acc. LINA negative values allowed

  14. AUC without line item settlement • Assets under construction in this asset class are managed without the option of line-item final settlement to receiver assets or cost centers. As a result: • Only complete transfers or simple partial transfers are possible (in other words, you can only transfer either prior-year acquisitions or current-year acquisitions in one given posting transaction). • You can only transfer to one target asset per posting transaction. You have to enter the amount of the transfer manually. • There is no connection to the original asset under construction in the capitalized asset. Therefore, there is no exact proof of origin for the original postings.

  15. Assets under Construction with Line item settlement • Assets under construction in this asset class are managed with the option for final line item settlement to receiving assets or cost centers. As a result: • On the capitalized asset, you can then see the relationship between the capitalized asset and original postings to the asset under construction - you can accurately identify the origin of the postings. • AUC’s can be settled to multiple final assets / asset classes

  16. Assets under Construction from Investment measure • Assets under construction in this asset class to be created solely for capital investment measures (internal orders or projects). • The assets in this class can not then be directly created and posted in Asset Accounting. The assets can only be processed by means of an order or WBS element, to which they are assigned.

  17. AUC Asset Class: Points from previous slide • Assets under construction require their own asset class. • Choosing the depreciation key ‘0000’ ensures that depreciation is not calculated for the asset under construction in depreciation areas that are posted to the balance sheet. • Assets under construction have to be shown separately in the balance sheet. • The component IM (Investment Management) is available for managing more extensive asset investments from a controlling-oriented perspective. • There are three asset classes for Assets Under Construction configured. These are: • Asset under Construction • Asset under Construction with Line item settlement • Asset under Construction from Investment measure

  19. Overview: Depreciation Areas • You will generally need values for fixed assets for various business and legal purposes (for example, for book depreciation, cost-accounting depreciation and so on). In the R/3 FI-AA system, it is therefore possible to manage values in parallel in as many depreciation areas as you want.

  20. The Chart of Depreciation Chart of depreciation Depreciation area 01 Book deprec. Depreciation area 02 Tax deprec. Depreciation area 03 Special reserves Depreciation area 20 Cost-acc. deprec. Depreciation area 30 Group deprec.

  21. Depreciation Charts/Areas in A Ltd. • Depreciation Charts: • Z910: Chart of Depreciation: A Ltd • Depreciation Areas: • 01: Local reporting Y1 • 02: Parent reporting Y2 • 31 Consolidated balance sheet in group currency • 32 Book depreciation group currency (profit center) There is no set relationship defined in the system between the chart of accounts and chart of depreciation. Company codes in Financial Accounting are assigned to a chart of depreciation – refer following slide.

  23. Master Data

  24. Create asset using asset class using a reference taking over the default values from the asset class 'copying' an existing asset Creating the Asset Master Record

  25. Calendar Enter period under consideration Valid from MMDDYYYY Valid to MMDDYYYY 01 Month Time-Dependent Data ASSET MASTER RECORD - Time-dependent data - New Interval Cost center A from 01/12/YY to 08/27/YY Cost center B from 08/28/YY to 11/30/YY Cost center C from 12/01/YY to 03/14/YY . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

  26. Master Data Creation/Change: Key Points • When you create the asset master record, you have two options: • Use the asset class, to which the asset will belong, to provide default values. The asset class then supplies the most important control parameters in the asset master record. • Use an existing asset as a reference for creating the new asset master record. • Some information in the asset master record can be managed as time-dependent data. This is of particular significance for cost accounting assignments (for example, cost center, order, project).

  30. Retirement

  31. Retirement Assets can be retired: With Revenue Without Revenue (scrapped)

  32. Asset Retirement: Types Types of asset retirement 1. Retirement with revenue - selling of an asset either at a market price, net book value or other settlement price 2. Retirement without revenue - writing off an asset which is no longer productive or has no residual value

  34. Depreciation

  35. Depreciation SAP supports the following directtypes of depreciation: Ordinary Depreciation: planned reduction in asset value due to normal wear and tear.Special Depreciation: depreciation that is solely based on tax regulations.Unplanned Depreciation: depreciation resulting from unusual circumstances, such as damage to the asset, that lead to a permanent reduction in its value.

  36. Depreciation Key The depreciation areas are identified in the system by a two-character numeric key. You make this specification in the asset classes, and can define it directly in the given asset master record.The system allows you to define an almost indefinite number of depreciation areas. This feature enables you to handle a large number of different types of valuation in parallel. You define the required depreciation keys per chart of depreciation.

  37. Elements of the Depreciation Calculation Depreciation is calculated according to the depreciation key in the asset master. The most important influences on the calculation of depreciation are:The value date of the document. It is used to set the depreciation start date in the asset.The depreciation key.The depreciation calculation method is the most important feature of the internal calculation key. It is used to carry out the different types of depreciation calculation.

  38. Transfers

  39. Transfers Assets can be transferred within a company code or across companies within the Group Assets can be transferred in full or partially. Controlling object assignment can be changed as can asset class.

  40. Asset Transfers 2 1 Asset transfers can be one of the following scenarios: 1. Transfer within same Company Code Eg. From one asset class to another 2. Inter-company transfers between companies in SAP Eg. From one company to another Transfer within Company Code (ABUMN) Intercompnay Transfer (ABT1N)

  41. Period End Closing

  42. Fiscal Year Change/Year-End Closing Calendar Calendar Dec Dec 31 Asset valuesat fiscal year start Year 2Transaction 10000 0APC 10000 10000Ordinary dep. 3000 - 2100 -Net book value 7000 4900 31 Year-end closing Fiscal Year Change Fiscal Year Change Fiscal Year Change Year-end closing Asset values at fiscal year start Year 1 Transaction 0 10000 APC 0 10000 Ordinary dep. 0 3000 - Net book value 0 7000 Depreciation posting run 1. Year-end closing program - Check: Can the year-end closing be carried out?- Maintenance of the last closed fiscal year per company code Closing reports- Asset history sheet- Asset list- . . . 2. Periodic processingFiscal year change 3.

  43. Points from Fiscal Year Change/Year-End Closing • The fiscal year change program opens new annual value fields for each asset. • The earliest you can start this program is in the last posting period of the old year. • You have to run the fiscal year change program for your whole company code. • SAP provides you with a check report for year-end closing. It checks whether the fiscal year change was completed for all assets, whether depreciation was fully posted, whether errors exist for any assets. • If the program finds no errors, it updates the last closed fiscal year for each depreciation area.

  44. Asset Reports …..Summary of the main reports

  45. Standard Fixed Asset Reports • Standard reports are available via the standard SAP menu: “Fixed Assets / Information System / Reports on Asset Accounting” Key reports: • S_ALR_87011963 - 70: Asset Balances • A series of query programs based on different selection criteria. • S_ALR_87011979 - 82: Physical Inventory Lists • A series of query programs based on different selection criteria. • S_ALR_87012936: Depreciation on Capitalized Assets (Depn Simulation) • Simulated depreciation on assets/asset classes and Projects (can be restricted to specific WBS elements). • S_ALR_87012026: Depreciation Current Year • Depreciation analysis by asset. • S_ALR_87012075: Asset history • Complete detailed history of each asset.
