In this step, you define transaction types for posting fixed asset retirements. You can also specify that certain transaction types should only be suggested for posting to certain depreciation areas. In the posting transaction, the system generates a pop-up with the depreciation areas to be posted to. If you specify that all areas should always be posted to, the pop-up does not appear.

Standard settings

SAP supplies transaction types for asset retirements. These are ready for you to use.

Most standard transaction types are not limited to certain depreciation areas, in other words they post to all areas in each chart of depreciation. Standard transaction types which are limited to areas do not have a corresponding short text.

Recommendation

If you work with the SAP standard delivery, you will not need to perform any activities. However, you may still need to define your own transaction types for the following reasons:

  • You require transaction types
    • which only post to certain areas in your chart of depreciation, and
    • for which there are no corresponding limited standard transaction types.
  • You want ceratin retirements to flow into different asset history sheet items. If this is the case, define retirement transaction types and assign them to any exceptional history sheet groups, (see also Define history sheet groups).
  • You require retirement transaction types which do not deactivate the assets which are posted to. If this is the case, remove the "Deactivate asset" indicator.
  • You require retirement transaction types which do not post any gain/loss as profit/loss, but instead use other special posting variants. For more information, see the chapter Gain/loss posting for bookkeeping.
  • You want to monitor a budget using statistical orders/projects. If this is the case, use the indicator for the statistical update of an order/project (see also System Administration Guide: Posting Procedure -> Statistical Posting...)

Activities

  1. Add new transaction types as you require. To do this, use the letters X,Y or Z anywhere in your 3-character key to protect it from being overwritten by standard delivery transactions.
  2. Specify the characteristics of the new transaction types in the detail screen.
  3. If required, limit the transaction types to certain depreciation areas.

    If you do not make a selection, all depreciation areas will be posted to.
