Accounting document for free goods.

Hi All,
When the item category is is changed from "TAN" to "TANN" in the standard sales order, the net value of the order becomes zero. Create delivery and billing dicument for the same. Now if the billing document is released to accounting, the system prompts a message "No accouting documents required for this billing document".And I agree that the system response is correct,because the net value of the order is zero.
But the requirement is, the client wants the accouting document to be created for the cost price of the material which will be given free of cost to the customer.Can somebody give me a clue to achieve this?
Regards,
Raghav

Dear Raghav,
In the standard system Item Category TANN is marked - not relevant for BIlling. You need to change this.
For that use T-Code - VOV7 (Maintain Item Categories)
Select TANN & under Business Data there is box for Billing Relevance.
Currently this box would be marked as Blank (Not relevant for billing).
All you need to do is mention "A" in this Box. (which means Delivery related BIlling)
Hope this helps...

From the error found, we tried to reverse the cleared accounting document by using t-code FBRA:
System response:
Document xxxxxx IS NOT a clearing document
Question:
We have to reverse the clearing document first in order to cancel the related billing document but we keep finding this error, do Anyone have any advice to solve this issue?
We have simulated similar transaction in IDES and no problem is found, is there any specific setting in customizing that can allow cancellation of billing document regardless of its accounting document status (Cleared or Not Cleared) ?
Thanks in Advance,
Indro

Thanks a lot for the reply,
It answers my question, I found the copying requirement using routine 029 was defined in the cancellation document section of the Billing type to be cancelled
After removing, the billing document can be cancelled
Thanks,

PO Document Type for Free Goods only

Good day,
Business Scenario: Client wants to track FreeGoods made. To solve this, we have created PO document type "Free Goods PO"
Current: I choose Free Goods PO, input materials and then tick the FG indicator.
Question: Is it possible that for this document type, every material I put, the indicator is automatically ticked? And that only free goods can be placed in this document type?
Thank you,
Simon

Simon,
You will need someone with a developer key to be able to implement the code. However, in the main PO processing program SAP has created spots where customers can add custom code for situations like this.
If you go to transaction SE81, you can select the MM module. From there click the "Select subtree +/-" button (will highlight MM in yellow). After that click "Information System". This will bring you to the developer workbench where you can review all of the enhancement spots and user exits in the MM module.
If you expand Enhancements, and click on Enhancement Spots, a selection screen should appear to the right. In enhancement spot enter 'es_saplmepo' and execute. Double click on the enhancement spot. That will produce the list of all of the enhancement points within that main program. There are ones specific to the header fields as well as item fields.
If you scroll down to "item_process_main_01" and double click it will bring you into the code where the above if statement can be added (for some reason it doesn't bring be right to the item_process_main_01 spot so i have to scroll to find it).
As the program is running it will hit your enhancement and process that as it is going. A developer can provide more details.
Hope this helps,
Matt

How to deal with the issue of craeting Billing for free goods

Dear All,
Now I met with a question for free goods, generally, it's not need to create billing for free goods. But I had used COPA and the profitable document is generated while creating billing. So my question is that how to create billing for free goods. Please give me some suggestions. Thanks a lot.

Dear Robert,
The following steps you can do for the Free Goods(samples).
1.Define new pricing procedure for Free goods through copying the existing procedure.T.Code V/08
2.If you don't want taxes remove the Sales tax related condition types.T.CodeV/08
3.Add R100 -100% Discount Condition type to make total value as "Zero" place R100 condition type after the total value.T.CodeV/08
4.Define new sales document type and billing type for the Free Goods process.T.codes VOV8 & VOFA
5.Assign document pricing procedure as C-Free goods for those sales document tyep and billing type.
T.codes VOV8 & VOFA
6.Define account key seperately for Free Goods and assign that account key to the pricing condition tyep and R100 condition type.
7.Determine the Free goods pricing procedure with the combination of sales areaDocument pricing procedure(i.e C-Free Goods)Customer pricing procedure.T.code OVKK
8.Do the G/L account assignment for that new account key(Single G/L account for price and R100-100% discount).T.Code VKOA
9.Maintain condition record for the R100 condition type as 100% with sales document type as one of the key combination.T.code VK11
Now when you create Free Goods order system will pick the Free goods pricing procedure(Value with zero)with refernce to that order you can create delivery then do the free goods billing ,and release to accounting with two postings one is credit-price second one is debit-100% dicount.
I hope this will help you,
Regards,
Murali.

Shipping Charge for free goods Error FF805 Tax statement item missing o0

Hi,
We handle a lot of free goods and Subsequent deliveries which are free of charge.
The item category has been set "relevant for billing" and "100% discount (B)" for relevant for pricing.
We have absolutely no trouble in billing and creating the accounting document for the free goods.
However, sometimes the client would like to charge shipping/handling/freight cost to customers on this. In this case (the net value is 0 and freight will have some amount), billing document is generated as expected but accounting document doesn't.
We get the error "Tax statement item missing for tax code O0" FF805"
We think this happens because the net value being $0.00.
In pricing procedure all the shipping and tax condition types have requirement '2' (and I tried with blanks also)
How to correct this issue? The client wants to bill the customer for freight even if net value is $0.00.
Helpful answers will be rewarded.
Thank You,
Manoj

Hi Manoj
Firstly , Check wheather the tax code O0 is assigned to MWST condition type in VK12 .
Secondly check wheather that tax code you assigned is an input / output tax .
Finally check what tax procedure has been assigned . and check wheather that tax code is available in that tax procedure or not

Accounting document for Export Excise invoice

Dear All,
We have two scenario's one is Domestic Sales & Export Sale.
In domestic sales as per the normal flow of document we create excise invoice after billing document and accounting documents are also generated and updated in the billing document accounting (VF02). Accounting document for excise invoice has been generated.
However in export sales we create excise invoice with the reference of billing document but no accounting document has been generated for excise invoice.
Can u please tell me where i have to make changes so my accounting document for export excise invoice will generate?
Thanks & Regards,
Ratish

Hi ALL,
There are 4 export scenario :
1) Deemed export 2) Export under Bond 3) Export under claim for rebate [No bond] 4) Export under Letter of Undertaking.
3) In export under no bond process is :- we pay the excise on the goods for exports and create the ARE-1 doc and send to port where the customers officials note the actual quantity of goods on the ARE-1 doc and stamped it. Then these stamped ARE-1 will be send to the excise range of the despatch plant(for exports) where we claim the rebate.
Now if you are not able to generate the accounting doc for such a scenario some of the consultants may suggest u to use the user exit (J_1I7_USEREXIT_DUTY_IN_EXPORT) and pass the the value X to the parameter SUPPRESS_CALCULATION this intern will help u to generate the Accounting doc also. but real problem lies somewhere else.
Actual Solution: Maintain J1ID (Customer excise details)
for export customer maintained the excise indicator to 3 {Nil Duty} insted of 1 {100% tax}.
Problem will be solved

Item category for free goods that does not require extra free goods

Hi all,
I have created 3 item categories (ZM1J, ZM0J and ZMFJ)
ZM1J is standard item for sales
ZM0J is free goods
ZMFJ is also free goods
I have setup VBN1 for free goods "buy 10 get 1 free" and my order is including these 3 item categories
ZM1J 10 EA and ZM0J 1 EA. These 2 lines are correct as I need.
Then I give other free goods which is ZMFJ 10 EA and system is asking me to give free goods 1 EA but I don't want to give free goods for ZMFJ. I will deliver only 21 EA (10 for sales and 11 for free)
What config it should do for this case?
Another question, ZM0J is selected by default. How to manually change it to ZMFJ in sales order? This is because some case, I still need to use ZM0J.
Please advise. Thank you very much.
Best Regards,
Darin

Hi,
Item category is determined by the four combination
Sales order + item category group + usage + item category at higher level.
Now you are using free goods determination procedure.
So that does not depend upon item category determination.
You have to define the item category determination so that proper delivery and proper pricing happens.
Now if you are giving 10more free item for which you have maintain free goods determination master data.
Then system will automatically give one more free goods for that material.
but if you giving some other material as a free goods then please let me know.
Give your requirement that in which way you want to process your ZMFJ then we can give you better suggestion.
To define alternative item category go to
IMG u2013 SD u2013 Sales u2013 Sales documents u2013 sales document item u2013 assign item category.
Over here you can assign alternative item category for your combination.
If you assign over here then you can change manually in the sales order.

Raj.

Sales Order Status "Being Processed" after completion for Free Goods Sales

Hello All,
This problem is related to Free Goods Sales which is as follows.
The process-flow for free goods sales is first we raise a sales order, then we do outbound delivery for the sales order and then finally PGI of the goods.We don't raise any invoice and the Free Goods Challan is issued to the customers by running a report.
The document flow at the end always show the Sales Order status as " Being Processed" and Outbound Delivery & PGI as "Completed".I want the system to show the Sales Order status as " Completed" and not " Being Processed".How to do that?
Please suggest some solutions.
Thanks & Regards
Priyanka Mitra

Hi Raja,
Thanks a lot for your prompt reply and suggestion.
Now we are able to get the Completed status in Document Flow.
Thanks & Regards
Priyanka Mitra
P.S. - I would request you to go through another problem which we are facing in Shipment , please go through this and suggest some solution regarding it if possible.
I have already posted this problem in a separate thread few days back but am yet to receive any fruitful suggestion.
The problem is regarding Shipment Cost Calculation while doing STO which is as follows -
In our scenario the Shipment cost calculation is done on two basis -
1) Absolute Rate / Flat Rate Wise - For example for transporting of goods from Kolkata Depot to Delhi Depot is Rs. 20,000 fixed.
2)) Gross Weight Wise - where the weight unit is kg and rate for example is Rs. 4 / Kg. So for 10 Kg the shipment cost will be Rs. 40.
Now I want the system to calculate the shipment cost on Rate / Carton Wise i.e. How will I be able to calculate the shipment cost of 100 cartons if the rate is Rs. 100/ Carton.
How to configure this ? Please help in this regard.

Free Goods Determination in Sales Order
Free goods has the following limitations:
- Free goods can only be supported on a 1:1 ratio. This means that an order item can lead to a free goods item. Agreements in the following form are not supported: With material 1, material 2 and material 3 are free of charge or If material 1 and material 2 are ordered at the same time, then material 3 is free of charge.
- Free goods are not supported in combinations with material structures (for example, product selection, BOM, variants with BOM explosion).
- Free goods are only supported for sales orders with document category C (for example, not quotations).
- Free goods are not supported for deliveries without reference to a sales order.
- Free goods cannot be used in make-to-order production, third-party order processing and scheduling agreements.
- If you defined a free goods for variants in a generic article (only SAP Retail), you can only process the variants in the purchase order and goods receipt individually (as single articles). In other words, you cannot process them using the generic article matrix.
4.6x
Not all Sales Order can be used for free goods determination. You have to check the SD document category if it does not work. Only category 'C' are supported. Check transaction VOV8.
Assume that you want to configure an inclusive FREE goods routine. Customers must order a minumum quantity of 5 before any free goods can be assign. For every quantity of 3, the customer will be given 1 free goods.

In this example, if you create a Sales Order for a quantity of 10, SAP will prompt you 7 as the customer order qty and 3 will be free. Customer only pay for the 7 quantity.
Free goods
Free goods play a large role in price negotiations with your customers. As a result, free goods are determined to be placed in sales document automatically. In retail, chemical industry or consumer goods industry, it is common to provide discounts in the form of free goods.
Inclusive Bonus Quantities Free goods can be part of order quantity not included in the invoice (billing). This is called inclusive bonus quantity. The ordered goods and the free goods both involve the same material. The quantity units of the free goods and the ordered goods must be the same.
Exclusive Bonus Quantities Free goods that take the form of extra goods that are free of charge are called exclusive bonus quantities. In this case, the extra bonus quantities are not typically included in the invoice (billing). This can either be an additional quantity of the goods ordered or it can be another article. The exclusive free of goods appear in the SD document as an individual free of charge item.
Both types of free goods are treated in the same way in the sales order. The material that has been ordered is entered as a main item (TAN) and the free item (TANN) is automatically displayed as a sub item. The item category determines how the item is controlled later in the business process.
The system re-reads the free goods master record in the sales order if the quantities in the main item change or if the pricing date changes. The system then deletes the sub items and re-creates them. Any manual changes to the free goods quantity are lost.
Note: If pricing is re-run in the sales order, it does not affect the free goods determination.
The condition technique is used for free goods. Free goods are generally regarded as a supplement to the pricing agreement for a material. You can define master records for free goods at any level such as material, customer/material, price list category/currency/material or customer hierarchy/material. The transaction code is VBN1 and condition type NA00 which automatically gets converted into R100 during sales document processing.
You can restrict a free goods condition master record for one level in many ways
a. Validity period: the condition is only valid within this period
b. Lowest quantity: the condition comes into affect when this quantity has been exceeded.
c. Delivery control:
d. Calculation type:
e. Scales
You can process different master data with the same key for inclusive and exclusive bonus quantities at the same time. You only need to press a button to switch between two types of discount. When you enter an exclusive bonus quantity, an extra entry line appears where you can enter the free material if it is not the same as the ordered material.
When you specify a calculation rule, you decide how the system determines the free goods quantity in the sales order from the additional and document quantities.
a. The free goods quantity is the quantity that is calculated from the discount quantity (not the minimum quantity)
b. Additional quantity is the quantity delivered free of charge
c. Document quantity is the quantity entered by the person creating the sales order.
Three calculation rules are provided by the system i.e.
Prorated the system calculates the free goods in right proportion to document the quantity. For example if 20 units are offered for free for 100 units in the condition record and the customer orders 162 units, then the system calculates 162 * 20/100 (rounded off) as free goods.
Related to units 20 units are given for free for every 100 units ordered. In the above case the customer would only get 20 units free as he placed an order for 162 units.
Whole units the customer would not get any free goods if he doesnt match the exact quantity proposed. That is, in the above case, the customer doesnt get any free goods as the ordered quantity did not match 100 units. Anything below or over the mark will not be qualified for a free good.
Calculation rules are stored in the system in the form of ABAP/4 code. You can also define your own rules by using transaction code VOFM (system modifications).
The free goods determination procedure contains a list of condition types for the free goods. One access sequence is assigned to each condition type and each access sequence contains one ore more accesses and each access contains exactly one table. This represents the search key that the system uses to search for valid condition records.
The free goods determination procedure is assigned to sales area + document pricing procedure + customer pricing procedure just as in the case of pricing procedure assignment as free goods are generally regarded as a supplement to the pricing agreement for a material.
If the search is successful, the system generates a sub item for free goods in the document. The item category is assigned with the item category usage FREE.
You can activate an analysis of the free goods determination in the sales document. The system then displays detailed information on how the free goods were determined.

Please help us on this
Anis

So how will the system determine RENN if you've cnofigured TANN to REN in the copy controls?
You've to configure for TANN to RENN between F2 and RE.
