Customizing Settings for Asset Documents

Send feedback

Procedure
The replication of asset documents requires specific configuration in the Central Finance system.

Note
Replicated FI documents which originate from asset postings in the source system are not posted to Fixed
Asset Accounting (FI-AA) in the Central Finance system. Instead they are only posted to General Ledger
(FI-GL) in the Central Finance system using posting keys 40 and 50.

Before this type of document is posted in the Central Finance system, the asset information is deleted from
asset-related fields of the FI documents, for example from the fields ANLN1 and ALN2. You can use a
Business-Add-In (BAdI) to transfer the asset information to customer-defined fields. You can find the BAdI
in Customizing under Financial Accounting  Central Finance  Central Finance: Target System
Settings  BAdIs: Central Finance  BAdI: Enhance Standard Processing of Posting Data.

1. Asset Accounts in the Source System

In the source system, the G/L accounts to which acquisition and production costs (APC) are posted, as well
as the G/L accounts for the cumulated depreciation, are defined as reconciliation accounts for fixed assets.
You can see this setting in the transaction FS00, on the Control Data tab for the G/L account in question.

G/L accounts are assigned to an account determination rule, which is the entered in the asset master
records. You can check the account determination for the Fixed Asset Accounting (FI-AA) in
Customizing: Financial Accounting  Asset Accounting  Integration with General Ledger
Accounting  Assign G/L Accounts.

2. Asset Accounts in the Central Finance System

In the Central Finance system, all asset accounts for APC and cumulated depreciation must either be set
up as a non-reconciliation balance sheet account or mapped to a non-reconciliation balance sheet account.

In transaction FS01, on the Control Data tab, leave the field Recon. Account for Acct Type empty.
