Cause
Low Value Asset Class is not relevant for Belgium/Luxembourg and France as there's no legal Asset Class Low Value Asset. This is the reason why we do not deliver G/L accounts “Low Value Assets” and “Accumulated Depreciation - Low Value Assets” as this concept does not exist in the Local Chart of Accounts for Belgium/Luxembourg and France.
Resolution
In these country/regions, all assets should be capitalized with the relevant asset class (machinery, office equipment, furniture, and fixtures, etc.). In case of need to depreciate immediately an asset, it would be possible modify the depreciation key and the useful life of the asset.
To deviate from the standard content, it is possible to create a custom Low Value Asset Class with SCCUI 102606 "Define Asset Class" (using “Copy As” button and using asset class LVA as model) and use it for BE/LU/FR company codes.
