Reverse Unplanned Depreciation in Difference Fiscal year

[former_member1265081]

Hi SAP experts,

In 2019, i run the unplanned depreciation as per require by the company. and due to change in accounting policy, in 2021 i need to reverse back the unplanned depreciation.

Could you guide me or give a suggestion how to reverse the unplanned depreciation that already posted in 2019 and reverse it in 2021?

P/s: We cannot open the 2019 period as this is our group policy.

Hi Noor,

There is no way to reverse a document in a different fiscal year. It is to not allowed by SAP standards because it would cause a serious inconsistency in asset accounts.

An option to be considered here is an opposite sign posting, making a copy of the transaction type and then posting it in the current open fiscal year 2021. However, before going ahead with this option the effects and implications should be explored with regard to impact in current fiscal year.

Thanks and Regards,
