Hi All,
I am working with a client to recognize its complex assets on SAP. Before now, its assets were recognized at the highest level. E.g. Aircraft. But due to new regulatory requirements, there is a need to break down that aircraft into components. E.g. Engine 1, Engine 2, Cabin Structure etc. So I created these component assets as sub asset numbers to the already existing main asset number.
After this was done, there was the need to break down the values of the assets and transfer these values into the sub asset numbers. I noticed that once the final amount was transferred using ABUMN, SAP deactivates the main asset.
So I decided to create new main asset and sub numbers separately. After transferring these values into the newly created asset sub-numbers and checking my report. I discovered that the main asset number had a value of zero, while the sub-numbers carried their correct individual values.
My client requires that when they call up the main asset number, they should see the summarized value for the whole asset, and when they drill down, they should be able to see the individual assets with their values correctly stated.
I would appreciate professional guidance on what I am doing or not doing right here.
