Fixed Asset Mass Changes

Hello,

With some of the legislative packages related to COVID-19 we need to make changes to the tax lives of hundreds of assets acquired after 2018 in the leasehold improvement areas. We also have 600 or so assets that we need to change the service date on.

Is there a better/easier way to do this other than manually doing them one by one? Do we have any mass change capabilities for fixed assets yet?

Thanks,

Ryan

Hi Ryan,

There are API's released for mass changes in CE2005 that should help you with this.

Hi Mark,

That's great news that there are API's with 2005 (I think it is available with RPA too). Unfortunately the company I work for is fighting for our lives (we're not alone in that) and doesn't have money or time to spend right now on developers to custom build something that our team needs today and that should be native core functionality of the product.

I really hope that SAP's plan isn't to just deliver API functionality to force the expense of external development on customers in place of the functionality being part of S/4HC Essentials moving forward for things like this.

Thanks,

Ryan

Hello Ryan,

Currently no solution for mass change for fixed asset, refer to below similar thread as well.

Thanks for the response, I asked the question again because we are now 3 releases from when those questions were asked.

I guess there was some hope that this would have been addressed by SAP since I know multiple customers are clamoring for it considering the volume of fixed assets and changes we have to deal with, disappointed that is not the case (there have been influence items asking for this for more than a year as well).

BR,
