The asset value tables in S/4HANA

Compatibility viewsFI-AA

Short answer

In S/4HANA, the classic asset value tables — ANEK, ANEP, ANEA, ANLP, ANLC — are no longer updated. Asset values now post to ACDOCA in real time (the ANEK header goes to BKPF), so there is no more FI-AA-to-GL reconciliation. The old names survive as FAAV_* compatibility views; plan and statistical data move to FAAT_PLAN_VALUES / FAAT_DOC_IT. Read ACDOCA or the released asset CDS views — don't extract the FAAV_* views.

What they were

In classic Asset Accounting, asset values lived in their own tables, separate from the general ledger — which is exactly why you had to run periodic FI-AA-to-GL reconciliation. ANEK was the asset document header, ANEP the line items, ANEA the proportional-value lines, ANLP the periodic depreciation postings, and ANLC the yearly asset values per depreciation area (acquisition cost, accumulated depreciation, net book value).

What changed in S/4HANA

The old names survive as FAAV_* compatibility views. The actual values resolve to ACDOCA; plan and statistical data move to the FAAT_* tables.

Object	Was	Now in S/4HANA
ANEK	Asset document header	BKPF + ACDOCA · FAAV_ANEK
ANEP	Asset line items	Compat view → ACDOCA (FAAV_ANEP)
ANEA	Proportional value line items	Compat view → ACDOCA (FAAV_ANEA)
ANLP	Periodic depreciation postings	ACDOCA + FAAT (FAAV_ANLP)
ANLC	Yearly asset values per area	Compat view → ACDOCA (FAAV_ANLC)
ACDOCA	—	Transparent table — asset actual line items, per ledger / currency, real time
FAAT_PLAN_VALUES	—	Transparent table — planned depreciation per asset / area / period

The headline win: because asset and G/L values now sit in the same table (ACDOCA), FI-AA-to-GL reconciliation is gone — the old reconciliation programs (RAABST01, RAABST02, FAA_GL_RECON) do not even exist in S/4HANA. Reconciliation is assured by design.

Where the values went — ANLC to ACDOCA

ANLC / ANEP field	Lives now in	Field
KANSW (acquisition value)	ACDOCA	Σ HSL · acquisition postings
KNAFA (cumulative ord. deprec.)	ACDOCA	Σ HSL · depreciation postings
ANSWL (current-year acquisitions)	ACDOCA	HSL where ANBWA 100–199
NAFAG (current-year deprec.)	ACDOCA	HSL · depreciation type
net book value	ACDOCA	Σ HSL · all asset lines
ANBWA (transaction type)	ACDOCA	ANBWA
planned depreciation	FAAT_PLAN_VALUES	per asset · area · period

ANLC and ANLP were summary tables — there is no 1:1 column map. You re-aggregate the values from ACDOCA line items. Even ANLC-KANSW and ANLC-KNAFA are now derived from ACDOCA / FAAT, not a real table (SAP KBA 3521430).

How to query it now

Asset values from ACDOCA · genericized · parameterized

SELECT  a.anln1, a.anln2,
        m.anlkl                         AS asset_class,

Planned (not-yet-posted) depreciation is not in ACDOCA — read FAAT_PLAN_VALUES for it. The released CDS views I_AssetValuationForLedger / I_FixedAssetForLedger expose these values without hand-rolling the aggregation.

Don't read the FAAV_* compatibility views for extraction — they are proxies that resolve to ACDOCA at runtime (slow). Read ACDOCA or the released asset CDS directly.

Extract it compliantly

Method	Use when
Released CDS view + SLT	Bulk to a warehouse — the owned-layer path (I_FixedAssetForLedger / ACDOCA)
Table / Table-CDC	Direct ACDOCA replication with delta
ODP-OData	SAP-sanctioned API, lower volume
SAP BDC / Datasphere Replication Flow	SAP-native pass-through (Delta Sharing)

Not ODP-RFC. SAP Note 3255746 prohibits third-party ODP-RFC extraction, and a June 2026 security patch blocks it.
