Change the Depreciation key

[Former Member]

Hi Freinds,

The users had put the depreciation key as "0000" implying that no depreciation is to be calculated on a particular asset. Subsequently, by using the T Code ABMA, the Manual Depreciation was provided and posted after doing the depreciation run.

However, the users now want to change the Depreciation key to Straight Line Method corresponding to 5 years of useful life. But the system does not allow to change the Depreciation key, giving an error message which reads as - "Manual Depreciation not allowed with Depreciation Key ZSL3". How can we resolve this? Is it really not possible to change the depreciation key and do we have to reverse out the Manual Depreciation?

Your help will be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Go to the Depreciation area in the Asset Master data, double click on the Area where we have the key "MANU". Click on more interval, add a date from when you need the change. Then modify the key against the newly added line and save it.

Just try this and see.

Hi Vinod,

Thanks for the response. After double clicking on the Depreciation Area, you don't find the key "MANU" and also I am not able to find 'More Intervals'. Could you please provide me with more details?

Thanks in advance.
