How To Fix AC293 - CAUTION: More than one fiscal year processed (see long text)

AC293 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: AC - Error messages from Asset Customizing

• Message number: 293

• Message text: CAUTION: More than one fiscal year processed (see long text)

What causes this issue?

When you reset company code &V1&, the line items of more than one
fiscal year are deleted. This can cause problems, especially if fiscal
years are already closed. The earliest fiscal year in the system that
has asset values is the year &V2&.
After processing is complete, recalculate values (transaction AFAR)
starting from year &V2&. It is not possible to recalculate values for
closed fiscal years. This means, if there are closed fiscal years
between the year &V2& and the current fiscal year, or if the year &V2&
itself is closed, you have to re-open these fiscal years before you
recalculate depreciation.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

When the processing is complete, execute a recalculation of values
starting with &V2&. Make sure that all years are open. If there are
problems afterward, reset the company code completely, in order to
prevent later problems due to data inconsistencies.
