It might be necessary to recalculate planned annual depreciation in certain company codes or for individual assets. This might be necessary if:
- You have changed a depreciation key.
- You have made mass changes that you programmed yourself, and these changes affected data relevant to depreciation.
- You want to calculate subsequent revaluation (after the legacy data transfer is closed) using current index figures. In order to correctly calculate replacement values, however, you can only use index series that calculate historically.
You can use program RAAFAR00 to recalculate planned annual depreciation (also in test mode). Depreciation is calculated using the depreciation terms that are valid at the time that you start the report. However, you can only recalculate planned depreciation for fiscal years that are still open.
We recommend that you run RAAFAR00 before creating the annual financial statement (after all year-end closing postings are made) in order to ensure that all asset values are current.
After the system recalculates the planned annual depreciation, it creates a statistical log with the total number number of assets processed and the number of assets with errors. You can check the assets with errors using the asset display transaction.
The depreciation posting program corrects the periodic depreciation for the fiscal year according to the newly calculated annual depreciation and the periodic depreciation that has already been posted.
Output
Once you have run the calculation program, the system creates a statistical log containing the total number of assets processed and the number of assets with errors that were processed.
