Fixed Asset Depreciation Run
Fixed Asset Depreciation Run
The Fixed Asset Depreciation run is executed at the end of each financial period and attempts to post the accumulated depreciation to different cost/profit centers. However, there are several types of errors that may come up during a depreciation run (e.g. some cost and/or profit centers are locked), so the depreciation run cannot successfully terminate and non-postable entries remain.
The Bot executes a Depreciation Run via a Fiori App, collects and classifies errors that occur during the process and writes the identified errors for further processing by potential follow-up bots into an Excel file. This Bot is resumable, i.e. if an error (e.g. timeout) occurs during processing, it can be restarted and will pick up at the step that failed.
