Split Object before Activation

This process is used to split an object before activation. It is used to activate q single part of an object in Investment status. This can be necessary when an object in Investment status (e.g. an object for construction in progress) is used to gather all investment transactions of a specific balance sheet item, or when parts of an object in Investment status can be activated earlier than other parts.

It is possible to roll back the split of an object.

Split Object Before Activation

Splitting an object involves dividing an object into two objects. A new object is created in the system and a part of the base value of the original object (i.e. the object that is split) is transferred to this new object.

In order to split an object having Investment status, it is required that accounting transactions have been entered in the system for the acquisition of the object.

When you are splitting an object, you will be required to enter the ID, description and the value of the new object that will be created in the system. The value of the new object can be specified as an amount or as a percentage of the value of the original object. Once this operation is carried out, a voucher will be created in the hold table to post the acquisition value for the new object and to reduce the acquisition value of the old object. The transaction code for the voucher rows of the split voucher is FAP0.

The status of the new object created in the system will be the same as that of the original object, i.e. Investment. At the same time, the general information (like object group and acquisition account), information relating to books, as well as planning and inventory information will be copied from the original object to the new object.

Rollback Split Object Before Activation

It is possible to rollback the split object operation. If one of the two objects have more recent transactions, these more recent transactions have to be rolled back before the split can be rolled back.

As a result of the rollback of a split transaction, the following will take place:
