7 STEPS FOR SAP FIXED ASSETS MIGRATION

Fixed Assets (http://www.sapexpert.co.uk/tag/asset) is an important part of the accounting. It is usually one of the areas that are
implemented in SAP, and often it goes in the same phase as all other Core Finance components: General Ledger, Accounts Payable,
Accounts Receivable.

You often need to transfer data from the old (legacy) system to SAP. This process is called “migration”. There are some speci cs in
migration of Fixed Assets data. Let’s look into the steps that you need to make and discuss them in details.

1. Detach Fixed Assets and General Ledger

There is a special type of reconciliation accounts in SAP General Ledger: Assets. You assign this type of reconciliation account to the GL
accounts speci cally created to hold Assets acquisition costs and accumulated depreciation.

The link via reconciliation account ensures that each transaction with Fixed Assets in your SAP system automatically posts in General
Ledger. You don’t need to post the same amount twice in General Ledger and Fixed Assets subledger. It also ensures that you cannot
post any amount directly to the GL account linked with the Fixed Assets module.

However, you need to break this link between the ledgers during the migration. Technically speaking, you migrate GL account balances
and Fixed Assets values separately.

To do so, change the account type from “Assets” to empty in transaction code OAMK, which you can also nd in IMG: Financial
Accounting -> Asset Accounting -> Preparing for Production Startup -> Production Startup -> Set or Reset Reconciliation Accounts.

2. Set parameters for migration

6/2/2019 7 Steps for SAP Fixed Assets Migration in SAP | SAP Expert

Before migrating data for Fixed Assets in SAP, you need to tell the system what you migrate and what to do with migration data. Most
important parameters for the migration are migration date and last closed period in the legacy system.

Last posted period will tell SAP that it needs to calculate depreciation and post it in the Fixed Assets module for the next posting period.
For example, if your go-live date is the 1st of January 2017, then last posted period is 12 / 2016.

Migration date is the date when SAP processes the migration transactions. It can either be the last day of the previous period, or the rst
day of the new period. Please note that if there are differences in depreciation amount posted during the migration and calculated by SAP,
they will be posted in the next period after the migration. In the example above, if your migration date is 01.01.2017, adjustment posting
will be planned to P2/2017. If you migration date is 31.12.2016, then adjustment will be posted in P1/2017.

You can nd both of the transactions for date-related migration parameters in IMG: Asset Accounting -> Asset Data Transfer ->
Parameters for Data Transfer -> Date Speci cations.

(http://www.sapexpert.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Asset-transfer-date.png)
Asset transfer date
There are a number of other parameters that you can set up for asset migration. They are relevant to amounts that you migrate. For
example, you can ask SAP to recalculate the depreciation amount in the past years, or recalculate the insurance value. All these
parameters are listed in the Options section of IMG next to the section I mentioned just above.

3. Prepare the migration tool

There are two tools available for Fixed Assets migration in SAP: using Microsoft Excel integrated tool, and using the generic migration
transaction for Fixed Assets.

Although Excel tool is available and listed in IMG node Financial Accounting -> Asset Accounting -> Asset Data Transfer, I have never
seen it working. The most common case is migration of Fixed Assets using the generic “manual” tool.

There are 7 transactions in that tool:

 AS91 / AS92 / AS93 allow you to migrate individual xed assets. These 3 transactions are for Creation, Editing and Display of the
migration data.

 AS81 / AS82 / AS83 / AS84 allow you to migrate group assets. These 4 transactions are for Creation, Editing and Display of the
migration data, and for creation of the group asset sub-numbers.

There are two distinct ways for migration of assets capitalized in the current and in the previous scal years. Of course, this note is only
relevant if you migrate mid-year. The difference is that you only migrate values for acquisition costs and accumulated depreciation for
previous years’ assets. All transactions in the current year should be posted as individual transactions in the relevant section of the entry
transaction.

The Current year’s Fixed Assets will only have the Transactions section lled in, and that section will include the acquisition and
accumulated depreciation transactions too.

https://www.sapexpert.co.uk/7-steps-for-sap-fixed-assets-migration-in-sap/ 3/21
6/2/2019 7 Steps for SAP Fixed Assets Migration in SAP | SAP Expert

The table below summarizes the section within transaction AS91 that you need to use to enter parts of the xed assets migration data.

Data Current Year Previous year

Acquisition Cost Transactions Takeover Values

Previous Years depreciation n/a Takeover Values

Current Year depreciation Transactions Takeover Values

Current Year transactions Transactions Transactions

You should familiarise yourself with transactions AS91/AS81 before creating the migration tools for your project. When you know each
part of AS91 / AS81, you can create LSMWs for transactions AS91 and AS81 (if necessary).

4. Preparing your legacy data

You import data from the legacy system into Excel or any other data management application. It is very likely that the structure of the
data will not be exactly the same as you expect it to be imported into LSMWs prepared on the previous step. That is why you will need to
manipulate the data, sometimes enhancing it.

You may even need to build your own applications to manipulate the source data. For example, you can use application development
environment on a Cloud Virtual Desktop (https://www.clouddesktoponline.com/) like how SAP does it
(https://blogs.sap.com/2015/11/25/how-sap-runs-client-virtualization-for-development/). Add O ce 365 applications with full support
from O365CloudExperts (http://www.o365cloudexperts.com/).

Do not forget to document each of your manipulation for audit trail purposes.

5. Import data

Once your import tool and source data are ready, you can input data in SAP. LSMWs using transactions AS91 and AS81 (if necessary) will
create asset master records with legacy values.

Of course, it is a good idea to dry run the migration in your test system to eliminate the possible hiccups and prepare the solution for
known problems beforehand.

https://www.sapexpert.co.uk/7-steps-for-sap-fixed-assets-migration-in-sap/ 4/21
6/2/2019 7 Steps for SAP Fixed Assets Migration in SAP | SAP Expert

Your GL account balances should be migrated separately using any of the available tools, for example LSMW for transaction FB01.

6. Reconcile the ledgers

If you look back at the very beginning of this article, you remember that Fixed Assets and General Ledger accounts were detached during
the migration. Now, when the migration is over, you reconcile the ledgers.

To check the balance of GL account, you can run the transaction FS10N or FAGLB03 depending on the version of your SAP system.

To check the balance of your Fixed Assets, you can use many reports in the Information System section of the Fixed Assets menu. For
example, there is transaction S_ALR_87011964 – Asset Balances by Asset class. Each Asset Class only has one GL account for
acquisition costs and depreciation, meaning that transaction will provide you with information for reconciliation.

I values do not match you can edit migrated Fixed Assets data in SAP using transactions AS92 / AS82.

7. Link Fixed Assets and General Ledger accounts

Once the balances on GL accounts and Fixed Assets ledgers are reconciled, you put the link between the ledgers back. Use transaction
OAMK for that. Change reconciliation account type to “Assets” for the GL accounts you use.

These seven steps will complete your migration cycle for Fixed Assets.

If there are any questions you have about the Fixed Assets or any other SAP module, why not ask them (http://www.sapexpert.co.uk/you-
need-our-help) to SAP Expert?

Hello,
You can migrate assets any time you want, even mid-year and when other Finance functionality is already live. I presume
the balances on your Assets accounts already exist, so skip this step.

Thanks a lot for you article. It is really useful.
Nonetheless I got a question regarding the migration of asset under construction which are not capitalized. In transaction AS91
the capitalization date is required but I ll it I can’t do the capitalization (ABUMN) anymore.
Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Hello,
Thank you for the good question.
I would not migrate assets under construction as assets per se. I would rather follow the full process, i.e. via Internal
Orders or WBS elements. When you do the periodic settlement of them, AUCs will be created as a part of that process.
If you still have questions, please use this page (http://www.sapexpert.co.uk/you-need-our-help).

If these 2 CoCodes are the same legal entity, then export data for the xed assets from one CoCode, upload into the 2nd,
and then forget about the 1st.
Otherwise, there should be a sale or a intercompany transfer.

mid year. we migrated assets from previous years plus the posted depreciation in current year, which appears in the P&L. However

Accumulated depreciation of previous years should be migrated to corresponding Balance Sheet GLs during the migration.
This goes as a separate task to the Fixed Assets data migration.

2.GL account balances uploads
3.ABST2

Frances Ren on November 27, 2017


Thanks so much for this post. It the most helpful! I have a couple of questions. If you could shed some light, I will really appreciate
it since we are in the middle of migration.

1. You recommend “separate LSMWs for previous and current year assets, because they need to have different elds and even
screens populated. Current year assets load their values through transactions”. Could you explain “load their values through
transactions”? Do you mean loading the acquisition values through transactions? e.g. by invoicing creation against a vendor? But
AS91 already has a eld for acquisition value for new assets.

2. Our company acquired another company on June 23, 2017. SAP went live with the new company on Nov 1. Between June 23
and Nov 1, we used Excel to keep track of the nancials. Our nance has already posted GL balances for assets from June 23 to
Oct in production, e.g. acquisition value, accum depreciation, depreciation expense etc. Can we load the assets from Nov 1 and run
https://www.sapexpert.co.uk/7-steps-for-sap-fixed-assets-migration-in-sap/ 13/21

depreciation from Nov 1? In this way, the asset subledger will be blank from June to Oct, but there are values for the GL. Will this
cause any reconciliation issues?

Reply (/7-steps-for-sap- xed-assets-migration-in-sap/?replytocom=975#respond)

Dmitry Kaglik (http://sapexpert.co.uk) on November 27, 2017


1. Current year acquisitions are to be migrated via Fixed Assets transactions only. No need to put vendor invoice,
settlements etc. Only transaction types 100, 200 etc – whatever is appropriate for your scenarios. AS91 has values for
acquisitions of assets from previous years, and there’s a separate button for “transactions” for current year. Even previous
year assets may have some additional transactions (additions, impairments etc) in the current year.
2. You can migrate from the 1st of November. The assets and GL balances should reconcile at the year end. If they do,
you’re sorted.

Dmitry,

Thanks so much for your reply! It de nitely helps! Please bear with me as I need some clari cations.
1. On my screen for AS91, the button for transactions is greyed out, so I cannot enter anything. Do you know why?

2. If I migrate the asset sub-ledger only from Nov 1, how can the the assets and GL balances reconcile at the year
end? Do I need to do something to reconcile?

1. I have the Transactions button in my system. If you want me to look at this in your system, please use the contact
form link at the top of the screen.
2. If your GL and assets’ balances reconcile at the end of the year, you don’t need to do anything else.

First, setup asset number range as external. Use the legacy asset number when migrating in AS91. When nished, update
the number range to have automatic numbering, and don’t forget to update the last asset number+1 as the current range
status.

Dear Expert,

Thanks so much for this post. It the most helpful! I really need your help.

My migration date is 30.06.2016 (middle of the year) and 06, 2016 is the last posted period. Our scal year is Jan-Dec. I have done
AS91 for Previous Year Asset with the Acquisition value, Accumulated Depreciation (31.12.2015) and Ordinary Posted Depreciation
(for Jan – Jun 2016). After upload i compared the Asset Balances in SAP with Asset Listing Legacy it have many differences. For
your info, the calculation of depreciation in SAP is daily basis. In legacy system they used monthly basis. For current year asset i
do F-90.

So, the difference i do either ABAA or ABZU, but it still not solve my problem, still have difference.

My questions:
1. Are my steps is correct?
2. How exactly action should i take to make sure the legacy gure is tally with SAP
3. For current year asset (2016 onward) , what should i do to cater the depreciation Jan-June?

Thank you in advance for your reply.

Regards,
Zarina

Dmitry Kaglik (http://sapexpert.co.uk) on May 24, 2018


I would start with analysis of the reason of the difference. It means I would manually calculate depreciation for a handful
of assets and calculate that with both legacy and SAP values.

If I understand correctly, SAP should post any difference in legacy / automatically calculated depreciation in the rst
available period, this 07.2016.

You can also change the migration date from 30.06 to 01.07 and check if it makes any difference, especially as you have
daily depreciation.

Muhammad Luqman on December 24, 2018


Hi Dmitry,

My scal year is July to June. I am currently uploading Legacy data for the current year as under:-
My takeover date: 30th Nov 2018
My capitalization date: 1st Aug 2018
As per your post, I have to use AS91 (Transactions) Menu to enter my Acquisition Value for the current year. What Transaction
Type should I select in Transactions Menu.

Thanks / Luqman

The best way is to use F4 (Search help) to get the list of possible values and to select from that list!
