Some feedback on using the the Periodic Asset Posting Tcode ASKB --- In order to use the ASKBN transaction, you have activate the SAP R3 Enterprise Extension. First option in the IMG menu. Requirements: See SAP Note 588364. This allows you to post directly to the ledger without without having to generate a batch-input session. In addition, you can post directly online to the general ledger from the dialog posting transaction from depreciation areas other than the master depreciation area 01. Or you can update the values from a depreciation area to a special ledger using a different accounting principle. I tested the ASKB last year before we discovered that we could activiate the SAP R3 Enterprise and use the ASKBN. Once activated, you will see the ASKBN listed in the menu. This transaction is much, much better to use than the ASKB. Plus it works similar to your deprecaition posting. The only complaint that I have is that you get a "log" in test mode, but it does not create an actual posting log when executed like the depreciation postings creates. In order to use this transaction, you must configure the depreciation area where you are capturing the non-US GAAP asset requirements to post to the ledger in addition to the Area 01 that will automatically post. You will also have to establish an external document type, document number range and a reverse document type (OBA7) with account types allowed for Assets and G/L Accounts. The document type needs to be different from the document type used for the standard depreciation posting (AF) and AA postings (AA). We used AZ. We are also using a number range outside of our standard AA and depreciation document numbers. We assigned the AZ to number range A4 which is viewed via FBN1.
