• Message class: AA - Messages for Asset Accounting

• Message number: 677

• Message text: Subsequent acquisition in depreciation area &1 although net book value 0

What causes this issue?

A subsequent acquisition (during the fiscal year) or a partial
retirement was posted to depreciation area &V1&, although a net book
value of zero or a cutoff value has already been reached this year.
Due to the possible reduction of the depreciation amount, the entire
depreciation amount may not be incorrect, or the cutoff value may not
be reached after the posting.

System Response

The system issues a warning message.
If you are currently in the midst of posting a document, you can still
post the document.

How to fix this error?

In the case of an acquisition, refer to Note 92260, which contains an
exact description of the symptoms.
Check the depreciation amount. If the amount is incorrect, you have two
options:
Change the period control of the depreciation key for subsequent
acquisitions to "start of year."
Post subsequent acquisitions in such cases to subnumbers.
Offset the difference to the correction depreciation amount by making a
manual adjustment posting.
In the case of a partial retirement, refer to Note 428487. If the
cutoff value is not reached, you need to make a manual adjustment
posting.
