  Key Concepts: 
  Asset transfer is a process in the FI-LC Consolidation component of SAP that allows for the transfer of assets from one company to another. This process is used when a company acquires another company and needs to transfer the assets of the acquired company into its own books. The asset transfer process allows for the transfer of assets from one company to another without having to manually enter all of the asset information into the new company's books. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The asset transfer process in SAP is initiated by entering a transaction code in the SAP system. This transaction code will bring up a screen where the user can enter the details of the asset transfer, such as the source and target companies, the asset type, and any other relevant information. Once all of the information has been entered, the user can then initiate the asset transfer process.
