For certain types of valuation, it makes sense, or is legally required, that you end depreciation when a certain value is reached. You can enter an absolute scrap value in the asset master record. Or you can enter a percentage scrap value (cut-off value) in the calculation key.

In this step, you define the calculation key for automatically determining scrap values. For each calculation key, you can specify

  • the percentage of the depreciation base that should be used as the cut-off value percentage
  • whether the cut-off value percentage should be deducted at the start or the end of the calculation of depreciation
  • at what point in time the system should start calculating the validity period

You can enter several cut-off percentages for each scrap value key. You can define the cut-off percentages/levels per acquisition year, and the validity period can be of any length.

Example

Start of the validity period: Capitalization date
Validity period: 5 years
Percentage: 5%

=> For assets, that are no more than 5 years old based on their capitalization date, the cut-off percentage rate of 5% is valid.

Be aware that you have to enter the validity period of the individual percentages or levels of a scrap value key in cumulative form (level 1: 1 year, level 2: 2 years => levels 1 and 2 each last one year).

Standard settings

SAP supplies standard scrap value keys. You have to revise the time specifications of the scrap value keys delivered by SAP.

Activities

  1. Define your own cut-off value key or scrap value key.
    • Specify whether the cut-off value/scrap value should be deducted from the base value for depreciation at the start of depreciation calculation, or if depreciation should stop when the scrap value is reached.
    • Specify the start of calculation of the validity time periods.
    • Define the validity periods and the percentage rates for the cut-off value/scrap value.
  2. Enter your cut-off value key in the definitions of the depreciation keys concerned.

Further notes

SAP library FI-AA: Depreciation -> Cut-off Value

Further notes (Transport)

You can include the scrap value key in a transport request in the overview screen of the transaction under Key -> Transport. Note that the definition of the scrap value key applies in all clients. Therefore, you only need to transport if you need transports between systems (for example, from a test system to a production system).
