• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AAPO138 - Acquis. transfer: Depr. area does not manage reval. of ord.depreciation ?

  The SAP error message AAPO138 indicates that there is an issue with the acquisition transfer process related to the depreciation area in Asset Accounting (FI-AA). Specifically, the error states that the depreciation area does not manage the revaluation of ordinary depreciation. This typically occurs when you are trying to transfer an asset that has been revalued, but the depreciation area in question is not set up to handle revaluations.
  Cause:
  
  Depreciation Area Configuration: The depreciation area involved in the acquisition transfer is not configured to manage revaluations. This can happen if the settings for the depreciation area do not allow for revaluation or if the asset is being transferred to a depreciation area that does not support revaluation.
  Asset Master Data: The asset master data may have inconsistencies or may not be set up correctly for the intended depreciation areas.
  Transfer Type: The type of transfer being performed (e.g., inter-company transfer, transfer between different company codes) may not be compatible with the depreciation area settings.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Depreciation Area Settings:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for Asset Accounting (Transaction code: OAYZ).

  Ensure that the depreciation areas are correctly assigned and that they match the intended configuration for revaluation.
  
  
  
  Adjust Transfer Process:
  
  If the transfer type is causing the issue, consider using a different transfer method that is compatible with the depreciation area settings.
