• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FAA_CMP069 - Change of LDT date only possible if LDT status is 'In Preparation' ?

  The SAP error message FAA_CMP069 indicates that a change to the Last Depreciation Date (LDT) can only be made if the LDT status is 'In Preparation'. This error typically occurs in the context of Asset Accounting (FI-AA) when trying to modify the LDT for an asset that is not in the correct status.
  Cause:
  
  LDT Status: The LDT status of the asset is not 'In Preparation'. This means that the asset has already been processed in a way that prevents changes to the LDT.
  Posting Period: The asset may have been posted in a closed period, which restricts changes to certain fields, including the LDT.
  Asset Transactions: There may be transactions that have already been executed on the asset, such as depreciation postings, which lock certain fields from being changed.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check LDT Status: Verify the current status of the LDT for the asset. If it is not 'In Preparation', you will need to take steps to revert it to that status if possible.
  Reopen Posting Period: If the asset is in a closed posting period, consider reopening the period if it is appropriate and permissible according to your organization's policies.
  Reverse Transactions: If there are transactions that have been posted, you may need to reverse those transactions before you can change the LDT.
  Use Transaction Code: You can use transaction codes like AS02 (Change Asset) to check the asset details and see the current status of the LDT.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team for specific procedures related to your organization's asset management policies.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Asset Accounting Configuration: Ensure that your asset accounting configuration allows for the necessary changes to be made.

  SAP Notes: Look for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance.
  Training and Documentation: Ensure that users handling asset management are trained on the processes and understand the implications of changing asset data.
