In this activity, you create the opening balance for assets.

The asset balance is determined from Assets Management and posted to Profit Center Accounting.

After creating the balance, it is recommended that you post the changes in the asset balance to Profit Center Accounting online, as this simplifies reconciliation with Financial Accounting.

However, you can also transfer the asset balance to Profit Center Accounting periodically.

Further notes

If you are transferring your Asset Accounting to the SAP system from a different system, read the following paragraphs.

After transferring from an old system, Asset Accounting will not contain the same information for depreciations as for a posting of depreciations in the SAP system.

For a month in which depreciations were still posted in the old system, it is therefore only possible for asset balances to be posted correctly to Profit Center Accounting provided that no more depreciation runs are executed (in either the old system or in the SAP system).

For a month in which depreciations were posted in the SAP system, it is not possible to transfer asset balances to Profit Center Accounting later. It is recommended that you transfer asset balances as early as possible, that is, before a depreciation run is started for a subsequent period. This is better for performance, as the system then reads the balances from the annual table, instead of from the period table.

When you are transferring asset balances, the system only proposes company codes which have a chart of depreciation assigned to them in Asset Accounting. For further information, see Assign Chart of Depreciation to Company Code, transaction OAOB..

For more information about transferring balance sheet items, see the SAP Library for Profit Center Accounting, under Actual postings -> Balance sheet items in Profit Center Accounting.
