In this step, you specify a fiscal year variant for Asset Accounting on depreciation area level that is different to the one for the FI General Ledger.

Example

You would like to work with 13 normal periods (plant calendar) for book depreciation, and 12 periods for tax depreciation, because you need half periods (see Using Half Periods). In this case, it is possible to use a different fiscal year version in the tax depreciation area than in the book depreciation area.

Recommendation

Usually you do not need a different fiscal year variant for Asset Accounting. In that case, you do not need to make any system settings here.

Requirements

You must have already defined an appropriate fiscal year variant.

Standard settings

The depreciation areas in the standard system do not use an FI-AA-specific fiscal year variant. They use the fiscal year variant of the FI General Ledger.

Activities

Enter an appropriate fiscal year variant in the depreciation areas that are to use a different fiscal year variant from the general ledger.
