Chart of Depreciation Definition Charts of depreciation are used in order to manage various legal requirements for the depreciation and valuation of assets. These charts of depreciation are usually country-specific and are defined independently of the other organizational units. A chart of depreciation, for example, can be used for all the company codes in a given country.
Chart of Accounts/Chart of Depreciation The assignment of a company code to a chart of accounts is independent from its assignment to a chart of depreciation. This means that several company codes can use the same chart of accounts, although they have different charts of depreciation (and vice versa).The most important control feature in the Asset accounting company code is the chart of depreciation. It contains the parameters (such as the depreciation keys) that are used for calculating asset values in a given Company.
You have to enter a company code when you create an asset. This ensures that each asset is always uniquely assigned to a company code.
Assignment to Cost Center and Profit Center
For internal accounting, you generally need to assign asset costs to cost centers. Therefore, you can assign each asset in Asset Accounting to exactly one cost center. You make this assignment in the asset master record.At the Level of Cost Centre You can

Asset Master Maintenance
OverviewTrigger:
Create Asset Master Record
Business Process Description Overview
The asset master record contains all information relating to an asset that remains unchanged over a longer period of time:
Technical master data Organizational allocations (usually time-dependent) like Business Area,
Cost Centres. In case certain sub fields are required within a Business Area, fields can be identified down to Locations and Room for easier tracking.
Depreciation terms, for different Depreciation Areas.
The system stores all the values and transaction data per each asset master record.
Assets can be represented differently in the FI-AA component according to their complexity. The structure of the master record is identical for all asset main numbers, asset sub-numbers and group assets. Therefore, the basic procedure for creating any of these objects is essentially the same.

Asset Acquisition Overview
Trigger:
Accounts Payable invoice charges from a vendor for a fixed asset.
Business Process Description Overview
Asset Master records are created in transaction AS01 to represent fixed assets owned by an organization. Costs can be applied to these fixed assets through an accounts payable acquisition transaction as described here. For acquisitions that become a depreciable asset immediately or for an asset that is collecting costs over time (Assets under Construction) and is not depreciable, this accounts payable acquisition transaction can be used for two processes as follows:
Direct Purchase - An asset, such as an Vehicle, is being purchased (in a single transaction) and immediately written onto the books as a depreciable fixed asset. In this case, the Asset Master Record must be created ahead of time and this transaction will post charges to the asset in step explained above.. The document date of the transaction will be transferred to the Asset Master Record as the Capitalization date and the Acquisition date.
Asset under Construction - An Asset, such as a processing plant/ ob van or building is being created and costs are collected in the Asset Master Record located in a specific asset class for Assets under Construction. In this case, the Asset Master Record must exist ahead of time and this transaction will post costs to the asset in step I.4. An Asset under Construction is a temporary asset and will not depreciate. It will be distributed and settled in another transaction when the asset has been completed and is to be capitalized and begin depreciating.

Asset Under Construction
Overview
Assets, such as buildings and processing facilities, like ob van & other assets are built over a period of time and have multiple costs applied to them. These assets are created in a special asset class called Assets Under Construction, which acts as a temporary holding asset during construction for which no depreciation is charged. When the asset is completed, this transaction is used to transfer the asset to the appropriate asset category(s) where depreciation can occur.
Trigger:
After an Asset that has been classified as an Asset under Construction has been completed, it must be transferred to a valid asset category (capitalized) so that it can be subsequently depreciated.
Business Process Description Overview
This transaction is used to transfer the costs of an asset from the Asset Under Construction category to a newly created asset (or assets) in a valid asset class. It settles either all or part of the acquisition / development costs to a General Ledger Account, Project, Cost center. Transaction AS01 (Create an Asset) must be processed prior to this transaction to create the new asset in the appropriate asset class. This transaction will then settle the costs, transfer the asset value to the new asset master, and set the capitalization date, which will control the asset’s depreciation. When this transaction is successfully completed, the asset under construction no longer contains any costs while the new asset(s) contains the settled values.

Low Valued Assets
In general, LVAs are fully depreciated in the year of purchase or in the period of acquisition. This can be achieved by using/changing the depreciation Key.
The depreciation key used for Low valued Assets is
Z100 100% Depreciation in the month of acquisition.

Depreciation CalculationOverview
Trigger:
Every asset transaction in the R/3 System FI-AA component immediately causes a change of the forecasted depreciation. However, it does not immediately cause an update of the depreciation and value adjustment accounts for the balance sheet and profit and loss statements. The planned depreciation is posted to the general ledger when we run the periodic depreciation-posting run.

Business Process Description Overview
Keys automatically control the calculation and planning of depreciation, interest and revaluation in the system, or we can manually post using a special posting transaction (Planning Manual Depreciation).
There are several different types of manual depreciation that can be differentiated according to the reason that manual depreciation is required:
There is an unexpected permanent reduction in the worth of the asset that you have to post as unplanned depreciation.
You have special tax depreciation that you only partially take into account.
You are using unit-of-production depreciation and want to manually plan depreciation, rather than using the depreciation key.
In both cases, planned depreciation from Asset Accounting must be periodically posted to the corresponding asset and expense accounts of the General Ledger. We carry out this posting using a batch-input session. This posting session posts the various depreciation types, if required, to be posted to the General Ledger

Asset Retirement
OVERVIEW
Trigger:
Asset removal through retirement with customer. Business Process Description Overview
Asset retirement is the removal of an asset or part of an asset from the asset portfolio. This removal of a fixed asset from the asset portfolio is posted from a bookkeeping perspective as an asset retirement. In Asset Accounting, the removal of an asset by sale, as well as any resulting revenue, can be posted in a single step. At the same time, you can choose to post to Accounts Receivable (through integration with Financial Accounting) or to a reconciliation account.
Asset sale with customer
If the Financial Accounting module is being used along with AM when an asset is sold, the system enables you to post the entry to Accounts Receivable, the revenue posting and the asset retirement in one step.
An indicator in the posting transaction determines that the system posts the asset retirement after the revenue posting. The prerequisite for this is in the field status group of the revenue account in Financial Accounting, to which the revenue should be posted. The "Asset retirement" field (category Asset Accounting) must be defined as a required or optional entry field in the field status group of this revenue account (See the ‘Check Box’ – Asset Retirement in transaction F-92) . When using the standard transaction types, the system automatically creates a profit posting or a loss posting as well as a revenue clearing entry in addition to the asset and accumulated depreciation correction postings.

The revenue clearing entry is the same amount as the revenue posting to the account "revenue for asset sale (clearing account)" but with a reverse debit/credit indicator. This account is needed because the sale of a fixed asset is subject to value-added tax (=> automatic generation of a tax posting in Financial Accounting). Internal clearing must, however, take place without taxes.
The profit/loss postings, as well as the revenue clearing entries, are dependent on transaction type. Their automatic creation is controlled by the indicator "profit/loss from asset retirement" in the definition of the transaction type and can be deselected if required. In this case, you must manually enter the corresponding postingsInput required field
