In this step, you define the screen layout control for asset master data. The screen layout control contains the specifications for the field groups in the asset master record. You enter the screen layout control in the asset class. This method allows you to structure the master record individually for each asset class.

Note

This step must be carried out exactly to guarantee optimal master data maintenance.

Standard settings

SAP delivers some sample definitions which you can use as references when formulating a more detailed structure for the asset master.

Activities

  1. Create the screen layout control according to your requirements. (You may already have carried out this step in the "Organizational Structures" section of the FI-AA Implementation Guide.)
  2. Define for the individual field groups
    • the characteristics of the master record screen (whether fields are required, optional, display fields or should be suppressed)
    • the maintenance level
    • whether it can be copied (when creating a new master record using a reference master record)

Caution

The only field that can be suppressed are initial fields (that is, they have no contents). Fields that have contents are always displayed, regardless of the screen layout. Fields might have contents, despite the screen layout, for example if

  • the screen layout is changed
  • the asset data transfer supplies values to suppressed fields

If you want to suppress fields that have contents, you have to define them first as modifiable, and then delete their contents.
