New Architecture for Acquire to Retire
There is change to the underlying table structure in Asset Management area
Actual Items
• Actual data of ANEK, ANEP, ANEA, ANLP,
ANLC is now stored in table ACDOCA.
ANEK data is stored in BKPF.
• Compatibility views FAAV_<TABLENAME>
(e.g. FAAV_ANEK) are provided in order
to reproduce the old structures.
• Access to old data in tables still possible via
the views FAAV_<TABLENAME>_ORI
(e.g.FAAV_ANEA_ORI)
Non Actual Items
• Statistical data (e.g. for tax purposes)
previously stored in ANEP, ANEA, ANLP,
ANLC is now stored in table FAAT_DOC_IT
• Plan data previously stored in ANLP and
ANLC is now stored in FAAT_PLAN_VALUES

Process and Functionality
Impact

Www.rnitingupta.com
Functionality Change
• Reporting is based on line items – removal and virtualization of totals.
• All non-statistical line items in asset accounting are stored as
universal journal entries.
• No more reconciliation effort with G/L and within asset accounting
itself. Accounting and Asset Accounting are reconciled anyway due to
the universal journal entry.
• Depreciation is posted for the individual asset.
• Reporting on any CO object by single asset (e.g. depreciation on
cost center by asset).
• Significant speed-up of asset depreciation run (amounts to be
posted are calculated real-time and no more as part of the
depreciation run itself).
• Periodic posting runs are fully obsolete due to real-time update.

Www.rnitingupta.com
• For each accounting principle (no matter if account or ledger approach)
a corresponding depreciation area is required. For each currency in a G/L
ledger a corresponding derived depreciation area is required. Fiscal Year
Variants differing in start-or end date supported by a work around only
(note 1951069), which requires thorough test before the upgrade.
• Post the values correctly right from the beginning, using multiple
parallel documents.
• If a period is skipped we can re-execute the Depreciation run for that
Asset for the skipped period
• If there few assets have error during depreciation run missing accounts
in the account assignment, in that case when we rerun the Deprecation
run after fixing those errors it picks up only changed assets

Depreciation Run- Selection screen is simplified (New Screen)
• Accounting principle and/or depreciation area can be entered on the screen
• Planned, Unplanned, Repeat & Restart posting run option has been removed
• Server Group needs to be entered in sFIN

Configuration Changes
The below are the important steps involved in the configuration
• Copy reference Chart of Depreciation & Depreciation areas
• Assign Chart of Depreciation to Co Code
• Change the description of Chart of Depreciations
Real company codes must be assigned to the correct chart of depreciation
All links between sample charts of depreciation and company codes must be deleted as they trigger
an error during new Asset Accounting activation

Www.rnitingupta.com
• Define How Depreciation Areas Post to General Ledger
The chart of depreciation is migrated in such a way that there is no longer any area
that posts periodically; all areas post immediately to the general ledger. This also
applies for reserves for special depreciation areas.
The Concept of Delta depreciation area is no longer required

Www.rnitingupta.com
• Specify transfer of APC Values
The example is customized according to the ledger approach for 2 ledgers.
In this activity, you define transfer rules for the posting values of depreciation
areas. These transfer rules let you ensure that certain depreciation areas
have identical asset values.

Www.rnitingupta.com
• Specify transfer of Depreciation Terms
One depreciation area can adopt depreciation terms from another depreciation
area. In this activity, you specify how the depreciation terms for a depreciation
area are adopted from another depreciation area.

Www.rnitingupta.com
• Activate New Asset Accounting
In the Customizing system, you activate the new functions for new Asset Accounting
by selecting the option Active in the New Asset Accounting group box in this activity.
When you save, the system performs various checks before it actually saves this setting. If
the system has performed the checks successfully and saved the settings, new Asset
Accounting is active and you can post using the new posting logic from this point on.

Www.rnitingupta.com
• Technical Clearing account for integrated Asset acquisition
For an integrated asset acquisition posting, the system divides the business
transaction into an operational part and a valuating part:
1. For the operational part (vendor invoice), the system posts a document valid for
all accounting principles against the technical clearing account for integrated asset
acquisitions.
2. For each valuating part (asset posting with capitalization of the asset), the system
generates a separate document that is valid only for the given accounting principle.
This document is also posted against the technical clearing account for
integrated asset acquisitions.

WRICEF’s Impact

Www.rnitingupta.com
WRICEF’s Impact
Traditional SAP
In earlier version of SAP, The Secondary
Cost elements could not be displayed in the
Financial statement. In Simple Finance, the
secondary Cost elements are created as GL
accounts. This gives an option of Secondary
Cost elements being viewed in Financial
Statement Version
Simple Finance
In Simple Finance, it’s a 3 step process
1. Master data is loaded through
AS91
2. Asset Historical Values,
Accumulated depreciation and
depreciation for the year are
loaded through transaction ABLDT
3. The Current year acquisitions are
managed through transaction
AB01

Closing Process Impact

Www.rnitingupta.com
• Real time integration of Asset with GL, Elimination of reconciliation steps
• No separate program to be executed for balance carry forward in asset
accounting. This would be done along the GL close process FAGLGVTR
• Planned depreciation will automatically be calculated for the new year after
having performed the balance carry forward (Year-end Close)Fast
depreciation posting run due to simple processing logic, new data structures
and parallel processing
• For General Controlling Closing time will be reduced since SAP Simple
Finance will show better performance and less reconciliation efforts

The Balance Carry forward although done as part of closing cockpit takes care for Asset

1. Asset Migration transaction AS91 functionality has been reduced in sFIN
• AS91 Transaction used to be a single transaction to load Asset Master, Values for Previous
years and Current year.
• In Simple Finance, it’s a 3 step process
1. Master data is loaded through AS91
2. Asset Historical Values, Accumulated depreciation and depreciation for the year are
loaded through transaction ABLDT
3. The Current year acquisitions are managed through transaction AB01

2. Separate document types are required in the Non leading ledger for Asset posting
• There is a valuation difference between the Leading and non leading due to separate
Accounting principles for Asset accounting
• Ledger specific separate number ranges are required to be maintained for document types
which generate Asset posting
