Asset Write-up (ABZU) for Prior Fiscal year in Prior Fiscal year Special period

[austin_steyn]

Hi,

We have an audit requirement to adjust our prior year depreciation. Two adjustments have been requested:

1. Asset depreciation write-up. i.e. Too much depreciation was posted

2. Asset unplanned depreciation i.e. Too little depreciation was posted

For scenario 1, we were not able to post write-up for the prior year , in the prior year's special periods.

Why does SAP behave this way? 

For the 2nd scenario we posted Unplanned depreciation (ABAA) using

Transaction: 640 - Unplanned depreciation on prior-year acquisitions

Document date: Today

Posting date: 31.12.2024

Asset value Date: 31.12.2024

Period: 14

Note: We had to open the prior asset FY - No issues!

Help appreciated!

If you can't find a suitable transaction code

• (which ones did you try and what error(s) did you get?)

You could allow negative depreciation (select all allowed values) in OABN and create a transaction code by copying unplanned depreciation (640 of the asset is acquired in previous years) and use it?

What errors did you get?

SAP does not allow write-ups to be posted in Prior Periods. Only Unplanned Dep. We had to post the write-up for prior years in the current year!
