SAP Note 26681 - Leasing: Posting date for interest/depreciation

Symptom:

The periodic posting of depreciation is distributed incorrectly when leased assets are valuated using method 'L' = 'depreciation and interest for the present value, determined from the payments to be made'.
Similarly, the proportional accumulated depreciation is calculated incorrectly for a transfer retirement or simple retirement.

Cause and prerequisites

The problem only occurs when the payment cycle is quarterly, semi-annual or annual, instead of monthly.

Solution
This problem is actually not an error, but a distribution option that cannot be set up. Determining interest and depreciation according to the present value method affects amounts, but not the date when they are posted.
At present, the posting date is set to the end of the period. For a payment of 12, for example, the interest and depreciation falling due on a payment is posted after 12 months have elapsed (including the payment period).
The following program modification enables you to change the posting date to the start of the period, so that the payments and the posting of interest or depreciation fall within the same period.
There is not yet a programming solution to the problem of evenly distributing the interest and depreciation to the individual periods between two payments.
