Definition and Execution of One-Time Revaluation 

Use

In certain countries, tax laws allow you to balance the affects of inflation by a one-time revaluation of the entire asset portfolio (refer to Management of Inflation). This revaluation is allowed at given intervals (usually several years).

Collective Posting/Individual Posting

The system can post the revaluation using collective posting. You can also manually revaluate individual assets. For this you use the standard posting transactions in the FI-AA component (Postings ® Revaluat.(bal.sht.)). With transaction type 800 you can enter the amount of APC revaluation and the appropriate accumulated proportional depreciation (backlog).

Please note that depreciation for the current fiscal year is automatically corrected (revaluated) by the depreciation calculation program. Therefore, you usually only need to enter revaluation of the accumulated depreciation for closed fiscal years in the posting transaction.
