In this step, you define depreciation keys for the net worth tax valuation of your complex fixed assets.

Depreciation keys contain the calculation methods for depeciation calculation and parameters that control

You can enter a separate depreciation key for each depreciation area in the asset master record.

Requirements

You must have already created a chart of depreciation.

Standard settings

SAP supplies the country-specific depreciation keys required in each country, for example:

LINR = Straight-line depreciation from net book value to zero

DG30 = Declining-balance, 3 times straight-line rate

Activities

Define additional depreciation keys to meet your requirements.

Additional hints

SAP Library FI-AA: Depreciation -> Definition of the Depreciation Key

Further notes (Transport)

You can include the depreciation key in a transport request (Key -> Transport in the overview screen of the transaction). Note that the definition of the depreciation key only applies in one client. Therefore, transport is not only necessary between systems (such as, from a test system to a productive system), but also in order to make the depreciation key available in other clients.
