Issue No.: 51
The user posts an acquisition transaction through transaction code F-90 and expects the capitalization and depreciation start date to be filled by the system. SAP help says the capitalization date and depreciation start date will be filled by the system with the first acquisition date. But this is not happening in his case. How can this be resolved?
As per SAP standard practice, on the first acquisition, the system will populate capitalization and the first depreciation date. If this is not happening, check your configuration setting in transaction code AO73 (menu path: IMG → Financial Accounting → Asset Accounting → Transactions → Acquisitions → Define Transaction Types for Acquisitions → Define Transaction Types for Acquisitions).
In the screen that appears, shown in Figure check whether the Capitalize fixed asset box is checked. If not, check it.
