in the definition of the FI company code (FI Customizing).
SAP provides the appropriate default settings for most countries.
The standard defaults have to be checked for the selected country.

Chart of Depreciation
Use
A chart of depreciation is a directory of depreciation areas arranged according to business
requirements. Each chart of depreciation contains the rules for the evaluation of assets that
are valid in a specific country or economic area.
Each company code defined in Asset Accounting must refer to a chart of depreciation.
2.1.2.1
Use
SAP provides country-specific charts of depreciation with predefined depreciation areas (for
example, 0GB for Great Britain). These charts of depreciation are only references for
customer charts of depreciation and therefore cannot be used directly. When you create your
own chart of depreciation, you must copy a reference chart of depreciation.
When you create a chart of depreciation, the system copies all the depreciation areas from
the standard chart of depreciation that you use as a reference. You must delete any
depreciation areas you do not need from your chart of depreciation.
The chart of depreciation 1000 has been created as a copy of the chart of depreciation 0ZA.

2.1.2.5
Use
In the FI-AA application, you can assign the main asset number across company codes.
Therefore, for every company code, you can determine from which (other) company code the
number assignment is to be carried out. In this step, you define a cross-company code
assignment of the main asset number. If you do not want a cross-company code number
assignment, you do not need to define any system settings here.

2.1.3
Asset Classes
Use
Asset classes are the most important structuring elements for fixed assets. You can define
any number of asset classes in the system. You can use them to structure your fixed assets
according to different criteria.
2.1.3.1
Use
The most important function of an asset class is to link asset master records to their
respective general ledger accounts in Financial Accounting. This link is created by the
account determination key in each asset class. You can assign several asset classes to the
same account determination key.

different purposes. To make it easier to maintain master data, you can adapt the asset master
record to suit your own needs.

2.1.3.3
Use
In order to meet the needs of its many functions, the asset master record contains a large
number of fields. To make master data maintenance nonetheless as simple and efficient as
possible, the system enables you to design the asset master record to best suit your needs.
Screen layout rules, as mentioned in chapter 3.1.3.2 have been created and assigned to the
asset classes.
The screen layouts are copied from the standard layouts provided by SAP.

2.1.3.5
Use
An asset number uniquely identifies an asset. It always consists of a main asset number and
an asset sub-number. Numbers can be assigned in the system externally or internally.
With external number assignment, the user is responsible for assigning the numbers. The
system displays only the defined number range interval and issues an error message if a
number has already been assigned. With internal number assignment, the system assigns
numbers sequentially.

2.1.3.6
Use
From an accounting point of view, the asset class is the most important element for
structuring fixed assets. Each asset must be assigned to one asset class only. The asset
class assigns the assets and their business transactions to the appropriate general ledger
accounts. Several asset classes can be assigned to the same account. This makes it possible
for fixed assets to be structured in more detail at asset class level. Such detailed structuring is
not necessary at general ledger account level. It is also possible to define the screen layout,
tab layout, and asset number assignment for each class.

Since the number of asset classes and the way they are structured varies from
customer to customer, only a small number of asset classes have been created in
the system to serve as examples. Some asset classes refer to the same general
ledger account (for example, 86000 and 86400).
Asset class 95020 is indicated as the asset class for investment measures.
The asset classes must always be revised when the system is set up.
Result
Asset classes have been defined.
2.1.3.7
Use
Because of the large number of fields, the asset master record is divided into several tab
pages. In this step, you define the layout of these tab pages.
You can specify which tab pages are displayed for each asset class (or if needed, by chart of
depreciation within the asset class). For each tab page, you can specify which field groups
appear in which positions on the tab page.

The depreciation areas in the chart of depreciation 1000 have the following functions:
Book Depreciation (01)
This area is the master area. Transactions for this depreciation area are posted directly to the
general ledger. Depreciation area 01 does not manage any special tax depreciation. Asset
values for cost-accounting depreciation are managed in this area as well.
.
Depreciation areas that are not needed should already have been deleted from the
chart of depreciation and new depreciation areas should have been defined (see
Define Depreciation Areas).

In Financial Accounting, you can manage all the values of a company code in up to three
currencies at the same time for the same accounts. If you only need foreign currency
amounts for the group consolidation of your fixed asset, and therefore do not require a
different valuation approach (APC/depreciation terms) to the one you use for local currency,
you can use the function for parallel valuation in Asset Accounting.
To do so, you have to manage a depreciation area for each currency with the following
attributes:
The currency type and currency of the depreciation area are identical with the
corresponding parallel currency in the company code concerned.
In this area, depreciation terms and acquisition values are managed in exactly the
same way as in the book depreciation area.
The system automatically provides the corresponding posting documents with the additional
values from these depreciation areas.

In this step, you determine the transfer date for the legacy data transfer. This date determines
the posting status to be used for the transfer (posting up to this date will be included in the
transfer), not the actual date the data transfer is carried out. This setting also determines
whether you want to perform the transfer during the fiscal year (with transfer of posted
transactions/depreciation in the current fiscal year) or at the end of the fiscal year (without
transactions).
The system automatically derives the last closed fiscal year from the transfer date.
The transfer date 12/31/<previous year> is proposed for company code 1000, in other words,
the values are transferred for fiscal year <current year>.
If no data transfer is carried out during the fiscal year, the current fiscal year first has
to be opened using the Carry Out Fiscal Year Change function before the data
transfer is carried out.
If no fiscal year change is carried out, the system outputs the error message AY 252
Current fiscal year xxxx has to be after transfer date xx/xx/xxxx when the legacy
data is created.

Legacy data transfer is the transfer of existing data from a previous system or from a
manually maintained fixed asset card file. The transfer of legacy data is generally the first
action after you configure the Asset Accounting (FI-AA) component and classify your assets.
This task involves transferring asset master records and transactions from the start of the
fiscal year up until you go live.
The asset data part of this transaction is the same as in the Create asset function (AS01).
The data transfer transaction, however, also includes functions for entering cumulative asset
values and the transactions in the current fiscal year.
