SAP Note 25332 - Net book val.after end.useful life (APC depr.)

Symptom:

When using a depreciation key which depreciates exclusively from the acquisition value (for example, level key GD35, GD70 in the German chart of depreciation 0DE), the book value is not depreciated to zero or to the memo value.

Cause and prerequisites

The past depreciation copied by the SAP System was too small. The respective calculation keys do not have a control for a conversion after the end of useful life.

Solution
Change the calculation key allocated to the depreciation key.
Use transaction AX01 for this if it is a standard key.
Enter changeover method '5' and changeover key '0010' in the calculation key.
For the fixed assets, which are already past the end of useful life, you need to recalculate the depreciation.
