SAP Certified Associate – SAP S/4HANA Financial Accounting (2023) — Question 2

You perform the depreciation run for your assets. For a specific asset, you would like to post the depreciation costs to a different cost center than the one specified in the asset master data.
How do you achieve this?

Answer options

• A. By setting the “identical” parameter as not activated in the account assignment configuration
• B. By removing the cost center from the asset master data
• C. By changing the corresponding error into a warning via configuration
• D. By creating a substitution in Financial Accounting line items

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, as creating a substitution allows you to redirect the posting of depreciation costs to a different cost center. The other options do not achieve the desired outcome, as simply altering the parameter settings or removing the cost center does not provide the flexibility needed for this situation.
