3502716 - Reversal of automatic depreciation posting gives error AA470 - SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition.

Symptom

Reversal of automatically posted depreciation gives error AA470 - Reversal is not possible (no line items exist for the document number)

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition.

Cause

Automatically posted depreciation values cannot be reversed using the Reverse Journal Entries in Asset Accounting. 

Resolution

Instead you can use depreciation key 0000 (no depreciation) using a time interval if necessary, assign the key and execute a depreciation run. The depreciation key will create inverse planned values that will offset to a net zero value once posted via a depreciation run.

Or if there is only a small number of acquisition postings, you can reverse these postings, then execute a depreciation run, the reversal of acquisition will create inverse planned values that will offset to a net zero value once posted via a depreciation run. Once complete you can repost the acquisition values, can execute depreciation run for the periods required.
