When taking over old assets data using AS91 / RAALTD01, the system does not automatically set the following fields according to the period control in the depreciation key: the fields for depreciation start date, expired useful life, and changeover year.
This error can occur if depreciation terms have already been set as a default in the asset class, but the terms are changed or added to during the transaction.
A particular problem is that the depreciation start year is set as the changeover year when there is a declining-balance depreciation key in the asset class, but no useful life.
The system already calculates the the depreciation start, expired useful life and changeover year based on the default depreciation terms in the asset class.
If the depreciation terms are changed or added to in the transaction, the system is unable to recognize if the fields that were set automatically have now been changed by new entries, so that they do not have to be calculated, or if they contain the original automatically calculated value.
If the fields have been changed by new entries, the system can no longer automatically change them, since explicit entries always take precedence over automatic calculations. The expired useful life is a particular problem, since an exact calculation is not possible here if multiple-shift use or shutdown have to be taken into account.
You should either have default values in the asset class for all depreciation terms or do not use default values. The same applies to the transaction AS91. Either enter all the values, or do not enter any values here at all.
If you need to make entries for certain individual depreciation terms (depreciation key or useful life) in the transaction, then you either have to change the automatically calculated values in the fields for depreciation start date and useful life as well, or you have to take back the values using the reset indicator '!'. When you use this symbol, the system recalculates the values based on the new data.
When you transfer using the takeover program, you have to enter the reset indicator '!' in the fields BALTD-NDABJxx, BALTD-NDABPxx, BALTD-ANDSJxx and BALTD-ANDSPxx and BALTD-AFAGBxx und BALTD-SAFBG.
When you transfer using your own batch input, enter the reset indicator '!' in the dynpro fields ANLC-NDABJ and ANLC-NDABP in the dynpro SAPMA02S 0190 and/or in the dynpro fields ANLC-NDABJ, ANLC-NDABP, ANLC-ANDSJ und ANLC-ANDSP and ANLB-UMJAR in the dynpro screen SAPMA02S 0195 (as of 3.0 the dynpro screens SAPLAIST 0190 and SAPLAIST 0195).
When you use the dialog takeover transaction, there is a function you can reach from the pull-down menu (under 'Edit', the function 'Determine depreciation start date'). You can use this function to re-determine the depreciation start date and the expired useful life based on the capitalization date.
