BAPI_SalesOrder_CreateFromDat2 fails for items with free goods

Hi all, I have a very weird problem when I am trying to create a sales order using SAP .net connector with the BAPI function BAPI_SalesOrder_CreateFromDat2(). The problem happens through the following scenario:
1 - Item X has a free good rule on it that states "If user buys 5 Cartoons of Item X he will take 1 pack of Item Y free of charge" while Item Z has no rules like this
2 - using BAPI and .net connector, an order is needed to be created with following details:
a - Item X with quantity 6 Cartoons.
b- Item Z with quantity 3 Cartoons
3 - If BAPI_SalesOrder_CreateFromDat2() assigns these details to Order_Items_In with the same order (a then b), SAP will return an error for Item z that states "No item category available (Table T184 ZKE NORM KEN)."; while if the function tries to create the order with details in reverse order (b then a ), the order will be created successfully.
I have done the following steps:
1 - Tried the same order in SAP GUI but it succeeded. (So no problem in Item Category Determination)
2 - Tries the same order with the suspicious order in the BAPI function Test inside SAP GUI (using tcode BAPI or SE37) but the function had not return any errors also.
3 - Tried to send Item Category in code when calling the bapi function (Forced the code to KEN), but the same message appeared as SAP insist on redetermining the Item Category and return this meaningless message.
thanks

Filling of S table fails for fields with free form text or description

Hello Everyone,
We are trying to rollup a new InfoCube into our BWA system and it fails with a short dump CONVT_CODEPAGE with exception being CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE when filling up S table for a description field.
The only difference between the new InfoCube we are trying to load and the other existing InfoCubes is that, the new InfoCube we are trying to load has a field/InfoObject which is free form description for a line item field.
Also, when I checked the application log the system gives out the message "A Character Set conversion is not possible".
Did anyone encounter this issue when trying to create BWA indexes for InfoCubes which have text columns in the InfoCube.
We are currently at revision 52.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Dharma,
It's an interesting and new BWA case for me, so sorry no direct answer. I'll try to replicate it in free time I hope you opened a message with SAP Support for this.
From pure BW modeling perspective I normally model this in a way that this "description" Characteristic A is marked as "Attribute-only" and then used as a display attribute of another Characteristic B, e.g. Line Item Number. From BWA perspective it means that A is not indexed into the accelerator and joined only for display during OLAP time.

Goods Receipt entry for items with serial number

Hi All,
When I try to create a Goods receipt entry, for items with serial number, i'm always getting the following error message.
[OSRI] , 'The selected quantity of serial/batch numbers is greater than the quantity in row Id'
The following is the code that I'm using
Dim oInvetoryGenEntry As SAPbobsCOM.Documents
Dim oSerialNumber As SAPbobsCOM.SerialNumbers
Dim ErrCode As Long
Dim ErrMsg As String
Dim ret As Long
Set oInvetoryGenEntry = oCmp.GetBusinessObject(oInventoryGenEntry)
Set oSerialNumber = oInvetoryGenEntry.Lines.SerialNumbers
oInvetoryGenEntry.DocDate = Now
oInvetoryGenEntry.DocRate = 1
oInvetoryGenEntry.TaxDate = Now
oInvetoryGenEntry.PaymentGroupCode = "3"
oInvetoryGenEntry.Comments = "GRN Entry11"

oInvetoryGenEntry.Lines.Quantity = 1
oSerialNumber.SystemSerialNumber = 55555
oSerialNumber.InternalSerialNumber = "2354"
oSerialNumber.BatchID = "bt1"
oSerialNumber.Add
ret = oInvetoryGenEntry.Add
If ret <> 0 Then
        oCmp.GetLastError ErrCode, ErrMsg
        MsgBox ErrCode & " " & ErrMsg
    Else
        MsgBox "GRN Entry made."
    End If
It would be wonderful if anyone help me out to trace the exact reason for this issue.
Thanks

VPRS with Free Goods and Batch Determination

Dear Experts,
I have a problem on the products billing with Free Goods.
I will explain this, before the implementation of Batch Management (with batch split) the billing document show the condition VPRS on the main item (TAN) and the free goods item (TANN).
Now, when the Batch Management was up, the condition VPRS disappeared on the TANN item, I checked the order and it does shows the VPRS conditions. When i check the conditions on the billing document it shows me the following message when i check the VPRS condition
Condition ignored (requirement 004 not fulfilled)
Then I tried to debug the price determination and i realized that only on the TANN position the field komp-evrwr (price determination on the item category) is not 'X'.
Aditionally i can mention thar the batch split item category is defined as YG05.
Actually i only managed to show the cumulated VPRS cost on the main item.
Please someone say to me if this correct or there is a way to put the VPRS on the free goods item.

Dear Javier Sandoval Vera,
As per the standard pricing Routine 4-Cost system may calculate the cost only for the pricing related materials,here TANN item is not relavent for pricing so system is giving that message.
If you want consider non priced item also in the cost calculation then you can develop new routine as per your requirement with the help of ABAPer. (by copyingh the existing routine 4 then do the changes accordingly).
Or
You can maintain R100 -100% discount condition type in your pricing procedure,maintain settings as manual condition.
Now maintained the price relevant check for free item also then give the 100% -discount by entering R100 condition type manually with 100% discount for that specific item to make the item price as zero.
Now sytem will calculate the VPRS value without fail.
I hope this will help you,

Murali.

Hi Javier,
what do you do with the VPRS in your calculation- system ?
If you need i, you delete the requirement 004 in your calculation -system.
on the other hand, you can change TANN to komp-evrwr (price determination on the item category) is 'X'. Then you have to add an 100% rabate for TANN and the resukt will be free good.

Issuing more then one item in free goods

Hi SD gurus,
My client is asking to issue more then two items as free goods along the main item. Example material A is sold along with material B and C as free goods.As far as my trails, I'm able to configure only one item as free goods but not the second one. Can any one suggest to configure the above scenario?

Hi Ravi krishna,
Free goods can only be supported on a 1:1 ratio. This means that an order item can lead to a free goods item. if you want to give free goods X & Y for material A, then you need to enter material Y in order, simply change the item category as TANN.
As of my knowledge there is no alternative to it.
these are the constraints for free goods:
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.

Sunil

How to combine BOMs with Free Goods?

Dear all.
I am currently working on setting up a retail store in SAP ERP (6.0). Our client requires from us creating a functionality that would allow to create sets and add free goods to a certain set. For example: if you buy a set consisting of a hammer and a drill at a regular price, you get a pair of gloves free of charge.
We used BOMs to create the sets and attempted to combine them with Free Goods, which prooved impossible -- FGs don't work with BOMs. We also tried to use Bonus Buys, but these seem to be working only with SAP Retail, which is not available to us.
Do you know any way around this problem?
Grzegorz

Shantanu
It sounds pretty helpful, however, what we just found out it is impossible to give away free goods according to the local tax standards - so we have to give them away for a fraction of the price rather than free of charge. This forced us to create a separate logic to deduce different item categories in a sales order and different prices according to that.
Thanks anyway.

Invoice split with Free Goods !

Hi All,
I am having a invoice split when i am generating a sales order with free goods.
Item category i am using is TAN & TANN
Sales order -> Delivery -> Invoice (it is splitting to 2 deliveries) and 2 items are getting billed separately, i want in one invoice.
Need help Please.
Thanks & Rgds
Naveen

Delivery split can occur when the following are different:
1. ship-to-party
2. shpping point
3. route
4. incoterms
5. transportation zone
etc
Delivery split happens based on not only on different shipping points,but it depends on your business logic which supports thru order to delivery copy controll.
at item category level.if you do not have different shipping points for multiple line items ,but if you have for example business logic of say "any line items with 10 tons and above gross weight' can be split into multiple deliveries.

Add Item "With Free Description" in shopping cart

Hello Everyone,
We have the following requirement in SRM 7.0.
During creation of a Shopping cart, we use "Add Item with Free description" to add a new item
When we click "Add Item with Free description" a pop up appears, and in this pop we needs to be updated with a new field called Supplier Product Number which is already available as a standard field in Item Data Tab of shopping cart when we click on Details button.
Requirement is that, customer wants to enter this Supplier Product Number in this pop up screen along with item details, rather than entering it at item data tab. Could anybody suggest me the steps how to achieve this and also once the Supplier Product Number is entered in the Add Item with free description Pop up screen, it need to be synced and should appear in Item Data tab of shopping cart.
Regards,
Venkat

Hi Venkat,
This would require modification of the guided application framework view V_SC_DOFC_I_DESCRIBE to add a new field to the Window, please then check the WD ABAP Documentaiton for details on mapping this new field name to the supplier part number in the shopping cart, I would suggest however to simply fill it in after the fact, the pop up is designed to provide the minimum amount of information required to create the shopping cart, as supplier part number is not a required field in SRM, it is not available in this view. See below for details of the modification point:
Application: /SAPSRM/WDA_L_FPM_GAF
Web Dynpro Component: /SAPSRM/WDC_DODC_SC_I_DES
Window Information: IV_L_FPC_POPUP
View Information: V_SC_DOFC_I_DESCRIBE

Hostname Verification failed for certificate with CommonName 'gawlsdev02.ss

Hi All,
I want to know the meaning and the reason of this exception:
<Jun 17, 2010 2:05:52 PM EDT> <Warning> <Security> <BEA-090504> <Certificate chain received from gawlsdev02 - 147.141.83.104 failed
hostname verification check. Certificate contained gawlsdev02.ssga.statestr.com but check expected gawlsdev02>

statestr.com' against hostname: gawlsdev02>
thanks in advance.

When Webloigic Server tries to validate the certificate, it compares te CN of the certificate with the hostname from where the request is coming from.
If they don't match, hostname verfication fails and SSL connection is not established.
In your case I see the CN is gawlsdev02.ssga.statestr.com whereas WLS is expecting it to be gawlsdev02.
U can use this option to ignore host name verification
-Dweblogic.security.SSL.ignoreHostnameVerification=true
To know about other SSL issues, u can refer this

Goods Receipt Not Possible for PO with Free Item Checked (Tick Mark)

Hi Team,
We have a PO with one line item where the free item check box is ticked and net price is blank.
When we try to make GR with respect to the PO via T Code MB01 we are getting error as " No goods receipt possible for purchase order xxxxxxxxxxx for item xxxx "
Thanks
Vijay

Hello,
You can find confirmaton control under following customization path;
SPRO>>Materials Management>>Purchasing>>Confirmations>>Set Up Confirmation Control
Execute and select 004 (Inbound delivery) and double click on confirmation sequence.
004 is inbound delivery.
Also make sure that you first need to go to ME22N and then in item detail of purchase order tick the check box of confirmation required. Once this this is ticked you can create inbound delivery.
You need to create inbound delivery with VL31N.
Go to VL31N >>Enter PO number and execute. and save the delivery.Now confirm the transfer order with LT12 which is created and do the post goods reciept.

Sereval line item of Free Goods

Hi experts,
I have 2 questions about free goods;
Currently Free Goods is only working at the line item level, Is there a way that Free goods are determined based multiple line item quantities? Im using R3 not Retail R3.
I need to have two free goods items for one item, Is there a way? (example: I have 1 item that can give 2 lines of free goods)
Thanks
Nuno

Hi Nuno,
There is no way in standard SAP for giving two free items for one item.. and also no way to give a free good with ref to two line items.
Its only possible in IS Retail.... with Bonus buy
Reward points if helpfull

A problem with return order with free goods

Hello
I am working on ECC 6.0
I am facing a problem with the return order the case is I created an order of 1000 pc with inclusive free goods (w/o item generation) condition record that for every 10 pc over the 100 the customer will take 1 free pc
1 pc = 10 $
100 pcs = 900 $
120 = 1080 $
the problem when I am creating a return order with 30 pcs the system calculate the price as if there are free goods the system returns the 30 pcs with 270 $ instead of 180 $ and it should not calculate the free goods because the remaining items are 90 pcs that should not take a free goods discount
Regards
Jacopo Francios

hi ,
Such scenerios can be tackled by different pricing procedure in return scenerio.
See Pricing procedure Depends on sales area + customer pricing procedure + Document pricing procedure .
So for Return document type please maintain different pricing than the normal scenerio this will solve ur problem.
This is generally done also for tackling such scenerios.
Thanks & Regards
