Purpose

The program determines the depreciation and interest that are to be posted later to the G/L accounts in Financial Accounting or Cost Accounting.

Integration

The determination of the cumulative depreciation of an asset and the posting of depreciation expense takes place in the system at different points in time:

  1. Depreciation calculation (this program, transaction AFAR):
The planned depreciation is determined with each master record change and with each posting on the asset and updated in the database accordingly.
You run the program actively at the following times:
  • At fiscal year change and

  • mid-year, in order to check and adjust the planned depreciation values

  1. Post depreciation (transaction AFAB)
The depreciation run adopts the planned asset values and posts them in Financial Accounting. The posting document is updated in Financial Accounting at asset level.

Prerequisites

Features

The program determines the following planned values:

  • Planned values that are to be posted using the program Post Depreciation (transaction AFAB), and
  • planned values that are not to be posted for statistical areas

Selection

  • Company Code (required entry field):
The calculation of depreciation can take place for one company code or several at once.
You can enter a specific company code or make a general entry; for example, by entering a star (asterisk).
  • Assets:
You can limit the calculation of depreciation to one or more assets.
  • From fiscal year:
If you do not make an entry in the From fiscal year field, the system calculates the depreciation values for the open fiscal years where it makes sense for the asset.
  • Accounting principle and depreciation area:
If you limit to accounting principle or depreciation area, the system only calculates the values for the depreciation areas that result from this and their open fiscal year; this occurs with consideration of the from-fiscal year.
  • Testrun and Update run:
In an update run, the program must be executed in the background.
  • Server group:
The program always carries out parallel processing. You can restrict the system resources to the servers assigned to this server group by entering a server group.
  • Protocol:
There are the following options:
  • Totals log: The output list is generated at totals level, this means without a list of the individual assets.

  • Detail log: The output list is created at detail level, this means including assets.

  • No output log: The system does not create an output list. You can improve system performance with this setting as only a small amount of data is transferred with parallel processing.
