1. In the Fixed Assets work center, choose Fixed Assets view.
2. In the Fixed Assets subview, select Fixed Asset XYZ.
3. Click Manual Posting and choose Manual Depreciation.
4. In the Depreciation Type field, enter either 1 Depreciation or 2 Special Depreciation.
5. Enter the other required information.
6. Click Simulate.

      The system returns error message: "Asset <XYZ> val. view <ABC>: Manual depreciation not permitted in calc. proc.".

Generally, the system posts 1 Depreciation or 2 Special Depreciation automatically, and 3 Write-downs can only be posted manually. The manual depreciation of 1 Depreciation or 2 Special Depreciation can only be posted if both of the two conditions are met:

• The valuation view allows these depreciation types to be posted
• The Depreciation Method maintained in the specified valuation view is 0000 No Automatic Depreciation or 0900 Manual Depreciation.

Since the Depreciation Method maintained is neither 0000 No Automatic Depreciation nor 0900 Manual Depreciation, it's not possible to post the manual depreciation of fixed asset XYZ with depreciation type 1 Depreciation or 2 Special Depreciation.

To successfully post the manual depreciation of fixed asset XYZ, you have to change the deprecation type to 3 Write-Downs:

1. In the Fixed Assets work center, choose the Fixed Assets view.
2. In the Fixed Assets subview, select Fixed Asset XYZ.
3. Click Manual Posting and choose Manual Depreciation.
4. Enter the required information of Header and Set of Books.
5. Change the Depreciation Type to 3 Write down.
6. Enter other required information and click Post.

      The manual depreciation of the fixed asset XYZ should be posted successfully.
