• Key Concepts: 
  Removal Work in Process (WIP) is a term used in SAP Asset Lifecycle Accounting for Utilities (FI-AA-ALC). It is a process that allows for the removal of assets from the asset register and the associated accounting entries. This process is used when an asset is no longer needed or has been sold, and it ensures that the asset is removed from the asset register and all associated accounting entries are reversed. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to use Removal WIP, you must first select the asset that you want to remove from the asset register. Once you have selected the asset, you can then enter the details of the removal, such as the date of removal, reason for removal, and any other relevant information. Once this information has been entered, you can then initiate the Removal WIP process. This will generate an accounting entry that reverses any previous accounting entries associated with the asset and removes it from the asset register. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using Removal WIP, it is important to ensure that all relevant information is entered correctly. This includes ensuring that all dates are accurate and that any other relevant information is entered correctly. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all associated accounting entries are reversed correctly in order to avoid any discrepancies in your financial records.
