Use

In this activity, you specify the depreciation areas that post their APC transactions and/or depreciation to the general ledger.

The system posts the APC transactions of the depreciation areas to the general ledger online automatically. You always have to use periodic processing to post depreciation to the general ledger.

Requirements

Standard settings

The standard depreciation areas in the SAP reference chart of depreciation are set up so that book depreciation area 01 posts APC transactions and depreciation automatically to the general ledger online. The system posts automatically to the general ledger from other standard depreciation areas in accordance with the specific requirements of the country.

Recommendation:

It is normally sufficient to post APC transactions and depreciation from one area automatically to the general ledger online. You might need additional areas that post automatically to the general ledger for the following reasons:

  • For cost-accounting purposes, you want to post depreciation that differs from book depreciation to expense accounts or cost elements.
  • You need special valuations for the balance sheet (for instance, special reserves).
  • You have special requirements for legal consolidation of your corporate group.
  • If you are using General Ledger Accounting (New) (FI-GL (New)) and are using the ledger approach, you can specify further additional depreciation areas from which APC transactions are posted automatically online to the general ledger.

Note:

For showing special reserves according to legal requirements in Germany, you need to post automatically to the general ledger from depreciation area 01 and depreciation area 03. Area 02 is not allowed to post automatically to the general ledger.

Activities

Specify for your depreciation areas if and how they should post automatically to the general ledger:

  • No values
  • APC transactions online and depreciation in periodic processing
  • APC transactions in periodic processing and depreciation in periodic processing
  • Only depreciation in periodic processing
