If the asset is fully depreciated, then there is no need to further calculate depreciation amounts in the bookkeeping area. If only the residual value (10% of the acquisition value) of the asset remains at the point of the old data takeover in FI-AA, a uniform depreciation amount of residual value can be calculated over 3, 4 or 5 years depending on which one the individual company chooses as the additional depreciation period.

Machine A Acquisition cost 10,000,000 Won
Acquisition date 1980.1.1
Useful life 9 years
Residual value 1,000,000 Won
Net book value as of 12-31-93 1,000,000 Won
In this case, the following six options exist.

Enter 1980 as ordinary depreciation start date and the original useful life of 9 years. And enter 1994 as the change-over year in the asset master data (go to valuation -> double click on depreciation key).

Your company chooses to depreciate the remaining value over 5 years. In 1997, the old data takeover takes place in order to go live with SAP FI-AA. Enter KRL5 as depreciation key of the asset in the bookkeeping area, enter the first posting period of 1980 as ordinary depreciation start date and enter 9 years as useful life.
