• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AY125 - &1: Cannot set statistical indicator - asset u. cons. exists ?

  The SAP error message AY125 indicates that you are trying to set a statistical indicator for an asset, but the asset has a corresponding asset under construction (AuC) that exists. This situation typically arises when you are attempting to change the status of an asset that is still linked to an AuC.
  Cause:
  The error occurs because:
  
  The asset you are trying to modify has a statistical indicator that cannot be set while there is an associated asset under construction.
  The system enforces this rule to maintain the integrity of asset accounting, as the AuC is still in progress and may affect the finalization of the asset's value.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Asset Under Construction: Verify if there is an asset under construction linked to the asset you are trying to modify. You can do this by checking the asset master data in the Asset Accounting module.
  
  
  Complete the AuC: If there is an AuC associated with the asset, you may need to complete the construction process. This typically involves capitalizing the AuC into a fixed asset. You can do this using the transaction code ABZON (Transfer from AuC to Fixed Asset).
  
  
  Remove the Link: If the AuC is no longer needed or is incorrect, you may need to remove the link between the AuC and the asset. This should be done with caution and in accordance with your organization's asset management policies.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Review the SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team for specific procedures related to your organization's asset management practices.
  
  
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make changes to asset master data and that you are following the correct procedures.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as:
  
  AS01: Create Asset
  AS02: Change Asset
  AS03: Display Asset
  ABZON: Transfer from AuC to Fixed Asset
  ABAVN: Unplanned Depreciation
  
  
  Asset Accounting Configuration: Review the configuration settings in the Asset Accounting module to ensure that they align with your organization's policies regarding assets and AuCs.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may provide additional insights or updates related to this error message.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the AY125 error and successfully set the statistical indicator for the asset in question.
