Depreciation Key fully Depreciate Asset by end of fiscal year

[gradicopoulos]

Dear Expert.

I would like to create a Depreciation Key, to fully depreciate asset,automatically, during the fiscal year.

More specifically, If the depreciation start date is 01.06.2022, by selecting the depreciation key for example Z100.

The Asset fully depreciated,automatically, by 31.12.2022.

Thanks in advance

Hello George,

Any straight line depreciation key should act as you say as long as you enter the useful life accordingly.

Alternatively you can also assign changeover key from TCode : AFAMS that will depreciate the asset by 100% by configuring like below.

Hope this helps, kind regards,

Thanks a lot Engin,

One solution is exactly what you say, more specifically:

- Create Depreciation Key based on Useful Life (not %)

- Populate the field Period by calculating manually the months up to end of fiscal period.

I am just inquiring if there is something automated, for example SAP provide the opportunity to create a depreciation Key that fully depreciate (100%) Asset in one month. There is a customizing to fully depreciate (100%) by end of fiscal year with out calculating the months, the system automatically recognize the 6 month just by entering the Depreciation Key (Customized with %).

Thanks again

George

Hi George,

If you specify useful life in asset master as 6 month and use any straightline depreciation key, it will be fully depreciated by end of the useful life. You requirement is not very clear, if you can elaborate more on your requirement then we can suggest you the require solution.
