Using Abumn- Transfer asset w/incorrect asset class that has been depreciated in CY to new asset

When I first tried to transfer an asset to a new asset w/different asset class and different depr key the two months depr on the old asset showed as VALUE ADJUSTMENT. I wanted to have all depreciation calculated using the new asset's life. I reversed the ABUMN, and changed the old asset depr key to 0000. I ran repeat depreciation and the depreciaton was reversed. However when I again tried ABUMN the wrong amount was calculated because the new asset is plus one month.

I am in AS02 depreciation tab for the source asset and I double click on book 1 depr key. it has Start of Calc 8/1/2023 Operating Readiness 8/31/2023. The acquisition field is 2023 08.

ABUMN I am posting with document date in Sept 2023. I use the acquistion date of 8/31/2023.

I look at my new asset in AS02 depreciation tab and double click on book 1 and it has same start of calculation values, however, the acquisition date is 2023 9.

When I look at the AW01n I am one month short, I only see Sept - Dec depr posted and planned. I need Sept.

Hello,

Thank you for responding. I realized my last sentence should have said "I need Aug", but regardless, when I do the transfer using ABUMN why is the new asset ignoring Aug to calculate depr. I would think if I transferred the asset with a capitalization date of Aug in the month of Sept, the new asset should catch up Aug and Sept when I run repeat depr. but August depr is not reflected in the Posted or planned on AW01N.

I have taken screenprints and attached, it maybe be easier to see our issue. Unfortunately I could not upload my work doc, so I am upload the three that show the issue.abumn-testing.pngabumn-testing-depr-start-old-asset.pngabumn-testing-depr-start-new-asset.png Thank you for your help!

It seems like you're encountering a depreciation calculation issue when transferring an asset with a different asset class. To resolve this, you might want to check the acquisition date in the asset master data for the new asset (2023 9) and ensure it matches the document date in ABUMN (September 2023). Adjusting this date alignment should help calculate depreciation correctly for September.
