Postings for Asset Depreciation in sap fico

Postings for Asset Depreciation

Question: Can anyone help me here? We have run the "test" for depreciation and it shows that $ 1000 is " to be posted" (meaning $ 1000 Accum. dep & $1000 Dep. Expense).

However, when we do the actual depreciation run it posts 2 line items to Accum dep & 2 line items to dep. expense...for example:

CR- accum dep - $ 2000
DR - accum dep - $ 1000

DR - Dep expense - $ 2000
CR- Dep expense - $ 1000

Overall, it nets out to the amount listed on the report for that 1 asset, however, we do NOT understand why it is making the 2 postings!

Let me know if anyone can help...

Answer:
Are those postings in the same depreciation area?

Answer:
Yes...they are in Book (01)

Answer:
Hi,

How many area do you use?

it could be that you have an area for tax and an area for the difference.

If book depr. should be 1000 and for tax you have not defined anything
then SAP wants to make an additional posting for the difference between the two (based on your settings of course). This in order the also have a balancesheet for fiscal reasons.
