Diagnosis
There is neither an ordinary nor a special depreciation start date indepreciation area &V3&. Transaction type &V4& cannot be used to post toassets without depreciation start dates, as it does not actuallycapitalize the asset (in other words, it does not set the depreciationstart date).

System Response
Posting not allowed.

Procedure
Use a transaction type which capitalizes the asset (in other words, onewhich sets the depreciation start date from the takeover date) or setthe depreciation start yourself in the asset master record. You willhave to set a historical start date in either case.
