Investment Support 

Purpose

In some countries, the state may offer subsidies for investments under certain conditions. Investment support is a subsidy that is regarded as a reduction or valuation adjustment on the liabilities side of the acquisition value of the asset in question.

Prerequisites

You can display investment support measures separately from the acquisition costs as fair value decreases under assets or as valuation adjustments under liabilities. To do this, you need to define the relevant support measures (investment support keys).

In this process, you enter a manual posting for an investment support measure on the liabilities side. In Asset Accounting, you only plan the values. The posting is generated automatically in Financial Accounting by the next depreciation run.

You can find the data for this process under .

Process Flow
