[Mayank_Vardhan]

Dear Experts 

Greetings 

We need your vital input for the following two business scenario 

(1) 10 number of XYZ asset is acquired in current FY 2024 on 01.04.2024. Depreciation of 10 XYZ assets starts from acquisition date / beginning of current FY 2024 i.e. 01.04.2024. 

On 01.09.2024 business acquired an additional 5 more XYZ assets. At present in SAP S/4 HANA for additional newly acquired 5 XYZ asset depreciation calculation is starting from 01.09.2024. 

The business requirement is that for these later acquired 5 additional XYZ assets also depreciation should start from the beginning of current FY 2024 i.e. from 01.04.2024 not from 01.09.2024. 

(2) 10 number of XYZ asset is acquired in last previous FY 2023 on 01.04.2023. Depreciation of those 10 XYZ assets starts from acquisition date / beginning of previous FY 2023 i.e. 01.04.2023. 

On 01.09.2024 in the current FY 2024, the business acquired an additional 5 more XYZ assets. At present in SAP HANA for additional newly acquired 5 XYZ asset depreciation calculation is starting from 01.09.2024 of current FY 2024. 

The business requirement is that for these later additional acquired 5 XYZ assets also depreciation should start from the beginning of current FY 2024 i.e. from 01.04.2024 not from 01.09.2024. 

 Please share the required input to meet the business requirements in SAP S/4 HANA. 

Thanks and Regards,

Hello @Mayank_Vardhan , I think you can manually give depreciation start data in Asset master & it should work. But note that in this case April to September depreciation on newly acquired assets will be posted in september month.
