Asset transfer ABUMN - partial transfer of wrongly added acquisition value

[PLaudes]

Dear SAP experts, @SAPSupport 

I have a question regarding the partial transfer of an asset using ABUMN.

In 2019 an asset was created (laptop).  Use life : 3 years.

In 2023 (asset is already fully depreciated – NBV = zero), a new asset was created for the replacement of this old asset.  But when posting the invoice, the old asset was used instead of the new one.  So the acquisition value on the old asset increased with the value of the new asset.  But because the initial asset was already fully depreciated, the new value did not depreciate.

Now I want to transfer the new value to the new created asset.  How can I do this (partial) transfer ?  I only want to transfer the new value to the new asset and keep the original value on the old asset.

When I try to do the partial transfer, using the new value, also a part of the accumulated deprecation will be transferred and that is not the purpose.  I only want to transfer the new acquisition value, which has not been depreciated yet.  Original acquisition value and accumulated depreciation (same amount because fully depreciated) should remain on the old asset.

Thank you for your input !  Much appreciated !

I could not see the screenshot for AW01N which provided before. If I remember correctly, the acquisition posted on old asset is on fiscal year 2023. Would you please try to post the transfer with the same date of the acquisition posting posted on the old asset and then check the simulation result.

Hello @beam_liang , can you check my reply below ?  thanks !

when I use parameters below, I get the message that asset value date and posting date are not in the same fiscal year.  Simulation does not work.

Document date : 13.09.2023
Posting date : 26.04.2024
Asset value date : 13.09.2023

When I want to change the posting date into 13.09.2023 (same as asset value date), then I get the message that posting is not possible because the period 09 2023 is not open (fiscal year 2023 is closed) and also that the amount is too high.  Simulation does not work either.  

This is the message regarding the amount that is too high : 

Diagnosis

The amount entered is higher than the amount 1.142,59 of acquisitions from previous years on the asset in depreciation area 01, based on the asset value date and the posting period.

Procedure

Check the retirement amount, the asset value date and the transaction type.

If new acquisitions were posted to the asset in the year of retirement, the retirement of the new acquistions has to be posted separately using a different transaction type.

Would you please also show the parameters you entered in ABUMN during partial transfer.

@beam_liang 

Please find attached the printscreens of the used parameters and also the result of the simulation.

You can see in the simulation that system wants to transfer also a part of accumulated deprecation which is not correct.
Old asset is completely depreciated so accumulated depreciation should stay on old asset.
New asset has not been depreciating. Only new acquisition amount of 1213,71 should be transferred.

Hello @beam_liang, did you see my reply ? Do you have enough information to check ?

[beam_liang]

The invoice which need to post to new asset has been posted in which fiscal year and which transaction type shows in T-code AW01N for the posting.

[PLaudes]

@beam_liang 

Invoice was posted in FY 2023.

Original value was 1142,59.  New purchase is 1213,71.  This amount should be transferred to new asset.

[beam_liang]

Please try to choose "Curr.-Year Acquisition" in "Partial Transfer" tab of ABUMN and enter the amount if the incorrect acquisition amount posted to old asset in current year.

Hello, beam_liang.

Unfortunately it doesn't work because the asset was purchased last year and not this year.  So I receive the error that there were no transactions in current year.
