In this step, you define the investment support measures, which you want to claim and manage in Asset Accounting. In the definition you must decide whether the measure:

  • Is managed on the liabilities side
  • Reduces the acquisition value on the assets side

If you plan to have the investment support reduce the acquisition value, you have to manage the investment support in the book depreciation area. If you plan to manage the support on the liabilities side, you have to manage it in a "special" depreciation area (not in the book depreciation area).

In both cases, you can also manage the investment support measure additionally in other depreciation areas for reporting purposes.

You can enter the keys of several investment support measures in the asset master record. In this way, it is possible to:

  • Generate an investment support claim form list, showing all the assets eligible for investment support
  • Subsequently claim the investment support using collective posting

Specify plausibility checks for your investment support measures. You can define each investment support measure so that it is proposed and checked during master data maintenance, dependent on the organizational units (plant, cost center, asset class).

Note: The system only carries out these plausibility checks if you set the check indicator in the definition of the investment support measures.

Recommendation

Check whether the investment support you claim has to be handled as revenue. If this is the case, you are not required to manage the support in Asset Accounting. You can manage investment support directly in the general ledger.

Requirements

You must have already processed the depreciation areas for investment support.

Activities

  1. Call the "Set chart of depreciation" function, if the current chart of depreciation is not the one you want.
  2. Define the investment support according to your requirements:
    • Validity period
    • Maximum percentage rate / amount
    • Retention period
    • Depreciation areas in which the measure is to be managed
  3. Define several time intervals within the validity period with different percentage rates, if needed.

    This enables you to claim the investment support in increments over a time period that you define.

  4. Enter the combination of organizational units for each investment measure that is plausible for that measure. If you do not make an entry for a given organizational unit, then the measure cannot be created in a master record in which that organizational unit is managed. If there is no entry at all in the table, then the measure can be managed in all organizational units (no plausibility check). Set the indicator for those measures that should be proposed during master data maintenance.
