In this step you define asset classes for capital investment measures. The system requires these asset classes in order to

  • automatically propose default Asset Accounting master data for the asset under construction when a capital investment measure is created
  • determine the reconciliation accounts during settlement

You use asset classes to categorize your assets in Asset Accounting. Asset classes are also required for:

  • assigning assets to general ledger accounts in Financial Accounting
  • obtaining default values during master record maintenance
  • grouping assets for reporting purposes

Another activity in this step is defining default values for investment support measures. If you do not claim investment support for assets under construction, you do not need to carry out this activity.

The definition of asset classes is one of the basic activities in SAP Asset Accounting. You should therefore consult those responsible in the Asset Accouting department before you carry out this step.

SAP supplies predefined asset classes as examples (1-8).

Define asset classes for capital investment measures. To do this, copy an asset class which already exists (Edit -> Copy).

  1. In the overview screen of the transaction, enter a short text and a description for the asset class key.
  2. In the detail screen, maintain the control parameters. You need to make the following specifications in particular:
  • account allocation

  • number range for assigning main asset numbers

  • screen layout control

  1. Also in the detail screen, set the asset under construction status "cap. invest. measure." It is then impossible to directly post to assets of this class in Asset Accounting. They can only be posted by periodic settlement of a capital investment measure in the IM System.
  2. Maintain valuation specifications for the asset classes. For each depreciation area, specify the depreciation parameters (depreciation key, useful life). Set depreciation areas to inactive where required.
  3. Enter the combinations of organizational units and, most importantly, asset classes that make sense for each investment support measure.
It is may be there is no entry for a given organizational unit. As a result, the investment support measure cannot be entered in a master record that manages this organizational unit. If there are no entries at all in the table, the investment support measure can be managed in all organizational units (there is no plausibility test).
  1. In the same screen, flag the investment support measures in which the defined combination of organizational unit/asset class should appear as a default when an asset under construction is created.
