  The SAP error message /ILE/ANNX_GENERAL099 indicates that there is an issue with the depreciation area in the context of currency settings. Specifically, the error states that the depreciation area you are trying to work with is not set to USD (U.S. Dollar), which is likely a requirement for the operation you are attempting to perform.
  Cause:
  
  Currency Configuration: The depreciation area in question is configured to use a different currency than USD. This can happen if the asset is set up in a different currency or if the company code's currency settings do not align with the expected currency for the transaction.
  Transaction Context: The transaction you are trying to execute may require that the depreciation area be in USD, possibly due to reporting or compliance requirements.
  Master Data Issues: The asset master data may not be correctly configured to reflect the appropriate currency settings for the depreciation area.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Depreciation Area Settings:
  
  Go to the asset master record (transaction code AS03) and check the settings for the depreciation area in question. Ensure that it is set to USD if that is the requirement.
  If the depreciation area is meant to be in USD, you may need to adjust the configuration in the asset accounting settings.
  
  
  
  Review Company Code Currency:
  
  Verify the currency settings for the company code (transaction code OX15). Ensure that the company code is set to use USD as its local currency if that is the requirement.
  
  
  
  Adjust Asset Master Data:
  
  If the asset is incorrectly set up, you may need to change the currency settings in the asset master data. This may involve creating a new asset or adjusting the existing asset's configuration.
  
  
  
  Consult with Finance Team:
  
  If you are unsure about the correct settings or if changes are needed, consult with your finance or accounting team to ensure compliance with financial reporting standards.
