  Property indicator is a feature in SAP FI-AA Asset Accounting that allows users to assign a specific indicator to an asset. This indicator can be used to identify the asset and its characteristics, such as its location, usage, or ownership. The property indicator can also be used to group assets together for reporting purposes. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To assign a property indicator to an asset, users must first create the indicator in the system. This can be done by navigating to the “Define Property Indicators” menu in the SAP FI-AA Asset Accounting module. Once the indicator is created, it can be assigned to an asset by selecting the “Assign Property Indicator” option from the same menu.

  When creating a property indicator, it is important to consider how it will be used. For example, if the indicator will be used for reporting purposes, it should be created with a descriptive name that will make it easy to identify. Additionally, users should ensure that all assets have a property indicator assigned to them so that they can be easily identified and grouped together for reporting.
