How can you create an asset under construction? There are 2 correct answers to this question.

Question

Options

• AAutomatically, when settling capex costs from an internal order
• BAutomatically, when settling capex costs from a WBS element
• CAutomatically, when creating an investment measure
• DManually (transaction ASO1), using a specific asset class

• A
  6% (4)
• B
  81% (57)
• D
  13% (9)

Explanation

B and C are correct because SAP provides two automatic routes for AuC creation: a WBS element (Project System object) configured as an investment measure automatically generates an AuC during cost settlement, and the act of creating an investment measure in SAP Investment Management itself triggers automatic AuC creation - both leverage the IM/PS integration without manual intervention.

Option A is wrong because settling capex from a plain internal order does NOT automatically create an AuC; the order settles to a pre-existing asset or AuC - it doesn't generate one. An internal order only creates an AuC automatically if it has been specifically configured as an investment measure (making it overlap with C, not a standalone case).

Option D is wrong on two counts: the transaction for creating assets is AS01 (not ASO1), and manual creation is specifically excluded from "automatic" methods the question is testing.

Memory tip: Think "WBS and Investment measure = Wiring It automatically" - these two SAP IM-integrated objects are the ones that auto-generate AuC. Any manual route (AS01) or plain settlement (non-IM internal order) won't trigger automatic AuC creation.
