SAP Note 26189 - Creating total for each main asset number

Symptom:

Customer wants to use summarization to main numbers in reporting but the main number is a non-capitalized fixed asset and is therefore rejected in some reports (RAGITT01 RABEST01, and so on ) for these variants.
A deactivated fixed asset acts in the same way as a non-capitalized asset.
Report RAVERS01 does not support function 'Totals per main no.'.

Cause and prerequisites

Since the main number is not capitalized, it is not listed.Since the main asset master record is used as 'basis' for the summarization to main numbers, the subnumbers are also not listed.

Solution

1. From the viewpoint of SAP, there is no simple solution.The error is corrected with the conversion to a new reporting method. This occurs with Release 4.6 with the ALV reports, it cannot be implemented in advance.

2. A good workaround is a separate sort version, where the lowest sort level is the asset number (field name 'ANLN1') and the report is called with the function 'Create group totals only'.
