In this activity, you define your charts of depreciation. The chart of depreciation is a list of depreciation areas arranged according to business and legal requirements. The chart of depreciation enables you to manage all rules for the valuation of assets in a particular country or economic region.

You must assign a chart of depreciation to each company code that is defined in Asset Accounting. SAP provides country-specific charts of depreciation with predefined depreciation areas (for example, 0US for the USA). These charts of depreciation serve only as a reference for creating your own charts of depreciation, and are therefore not directly accessible in the SAP system. When creating a chart of depreciation, you have to copy the reference chart of depreciation.

When you create a chart of depreciation, the system copies all of the depreciation areas in the reference chart of depreciation. You have to delete any depreciation areas that you do not need in your chart of depreciation.

Depreciation areas that are not used can still be activated at a later point in time (after the production startup). The fixed asset values can then be transferred from another area (see the documentation in SAP Library about Subsequent Opening of a Depreciation Area).

SAP delivers country-specific reference charts of depreciation for each country. They contain all depreciation areas for that country that are necessary to meet legal and business requirements (for example, 0US for the USA). For example, there are reference charts of depreciation for the following countries:

• USA

• Spain

• Great Britain

• Austria

• Switzerland

• Germany

1. Create a chart of depreciation, using either an SAP standard chart of depreciation, or your own existing chart of depreciation as a reference (Organizational unit -> Copy org. unit).
2. If you want to create a chart of depreciation for a country for which a standard chart of depreciation is not delivered by SAP, you can refer to a country-specific standard chart of depreciation with similar depreciation parameters. You then have to specify any further country- specific characteristics during the other Customizing steps.
3. Enter the name of your chart of depreciation.
4. In your chart of depreciation, delete the depreciation areas that you do not need, or add new depreciation areas by copying them and making settings for the depreciation areas in your chart of depreciation.
