SAP Note 12477 - LVA with useful life of 1 month not written off imm.

Symptom:

Low-value assets with a useful life of 1 month are not
written off immediately in the month of acquisition; instead,
the depreciation is distributed.

Cause and prerequisites
    1. The flag
    "Residual value procedure"
    has been activated in the depreciation posting rules. In this case, depreciation is divided among the periods for which posting is pending.
    2. Depreciation is reduced in an area, because otherwise the remaining value rule would be broken in a derived area.
Solution
    1. Activate depreciation for past periods in a lump sum (deactivate the other flag). With this setting, the depreciation will be posted immediately in the next posting run after the acquisition. Note that this setting applies to the entire area within the company code.
    Depreciation corrections (between the planned value and posted value) determined by the depreciation posting program are corrected immediately during the next posting run; in the other procedure, the correction is distributed among the RABUCH periods not yet posted.
    2. Modify the depreciation rules in the areas concerned, so that they agree and that reduction is not necessary.

Key word: LVA Depreciation
