Documentation

Definition

Prevents the Asset Revaluation (Inflation) program from including transactions of this type when it calculates the difference between manual postings and automatic postings.

Procedure

Dependencies

This indicator only has an effect if you have assigned a revaluation difference area to the revaluation area.

You can do so in Customizing for Financial Accounting (FI), by choosing Asset Accounting -> Special Valuation -> Revaluation of Fixed Assets -> Revaluation for the Balance Sheet -> Inflation Accounting -> Revaluation Areas -> Define Base Depreciation Areas.

Examples

Assume that:

  • You have some drilling equipment with acquisition and production costs of UNI 12,000
  • You want the system to record any differences between manual and automatic revaluations
  • You have posted a manual revaluation of UNI 1,100, which you do not want the system to take into account when calculating the difference

You want to revaluate the equipment for the month of February. The monthly inflation rate is running at 10%, which means that the equipment must be revaluated by UNI 1,200.

Normally, the system would calculate the difference between the UNI 1,200 and the UNI 1,100 that you have already posted (UNI 100), and post it to the book revaluation area and - UNI 100 to the revaluation difference area.

However, by setting this flag, the system disregards the manual posting and posts UNI 1,200 to the book revaluation area and - UNI 1,200 to the difference area.
