Free good on the transaction VBN1

hello,
how to add multiple item as free good on the transaction VBN1
apparently adding one item is possible.
Otherwise what's the altenative solution.
thanx

Hi Anda20,
just double click on the line item where you enter the free goods in vbn1 system will take you to different screen where you can do so .
also you can manually in sales order given any item for free , provided that the item category determination is done for that item

Free Goods (Use of Inclusive & Exclusive at the same time)

Hi Gurrus,
i have a scenario and i need your help.
my company has started given free goods to the customers.
Example,
if a customer buy 4 PAC of material "A", He should get 1 PAC of Material "A" and also 8 PAC of Material "B".
That means I have to use Inclusive and Exclusive at the same time in one order for Material A.
My requiremet is if the order booker enters 4 PAC of Material in an order so system should generate two sub item lines,
1 PAC of Material "A" as "TANN" &
8 PAC of Material "B" as "TANN".
I have tried to capture this through VBN1 but system is only allowing me to enter either inclusive or exclusive condition record for one material.

hi,
ya, it is possible to create free goods for 1:n material for inclusive & exclusive for 2 materials.
create a sale order 2 material with diff qty.& free goods for 2 diff qty for inclusive & exclusive

How to enable multiple entries for bundling free goods in vbn1?

Hi SAP Gurus,
How can I enable bundling of free goods in SAP using vbn1?
In creating an entry, I place the material number, qty and other required fields then assign the material number of the item that I want to bundle with the 1st product. My problem is that I can only assign 1 material number to a product.
Scenario:
Mat. No. 1 is the main item, then I assign matNo.2 to be budled with matNo.1. I also wanted to assign matNo.3 to be bundled with matNo.1. But unfortunately, When I place another entry using matNo.1. Error says that it is currently being processed. It seems I can only assign a single free goods. How can I set this to multiple?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Colleague,
No. This function is not provided in the R/3 System. Only one record is taken into account during the free goods determination with the existence of several valid condition records. This record is the one with the largest minimum quantity. For this record the system only generates one free goods subitem.
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: #eWith material 1, material 2 and material 3 are free of charge#e or #eIf material 1 and material 2 are ordered at the same time, then material 3 is free of charge#e.
You can refer FAQ note 549963 which clarifies this point.
I hope it can be helpful.

Free Goods not getting Determined at the Order Level

Dear All,
I have activated free goods settings and also maintained free goods master record for exclusive free goods.However when I am entering the main line item the second line item in the sales order which should contain the free qty is not coming,please advice what needs to be done.
Kind Regards
Atul

Hi Jelena,
Thanks for your post with this I could find out what was happening.The following is the analysis once I switched on the free goods determination at the order level and below was the system response.
Diagnosis
 There are certain business transactions where it is not possible to
 determine free goods in the SAP standard system: reason 3
 Explanation of reasons
 1 Document category is not from sales order category (VBTYP <> 'C'
 2 Lower-level item
 3 Bill of material
 4 Product selection
 5 Configurable item
 6 Scheduling agreement/forecast delivery schedule
 7 Item with active ingredient management
 8 Item without schedule lines
I had found that in my item category the structure scope was marked as A where it was exploding the single level bill of material.Once this configuration was turned blank which is no explosion the free goods were getting determined.
Kind Regards
Atul

Free Goods Condition record usingT.Code VBN1

Hi all,
We are creating a free goods condition record using T.Code VBN1.
We want to ensure that main item & free goods items are only shipped out together. How do we enable this using delivery controls in T.Code VBN1.
Regards,
Tom.

We are working with free goods in the sales order and to enable this we have done exclusive free goods config.Record for the same is maintained in T.code VBN1.
Now in the sales order we have 2 line items. First line item is the main item and the second is free goods item. Sometimes, only main item stock is available and no stock of free goods. In this case the main item gets delivered which should not happen.
We want to ensure that the main item and free goods item are delivered together on a date only when both the items are available. How do we enable this.
Hope this explains the issue. Look forward to your reply.
Tom.

Free Goods for Materials from the same division

Hi Friends,
We are trying to configure free goods based on customer and division in our system. If a customer orders any material belonging to a specific division, he is entitled for a free good.
For this we created a new condition table based on customer and division and maintained condition records that if he orders 100 qty of any material in Division 10 that he is entitled for 1 qty of material X.
Now the problem is that at the time of creating the sales order if Material A is entered for qty 50 and Material B is for qty 50 then the system does not give free goods. However, if we enter Materail A for 100 qty it gives the free goods 1 qty of Material X. Similarly, for Mat B with 100 qty it gives Mat X as free goods.
The system is not adding up the quantities for the multiple line items to calculate the free goods.
Is there any way by which we can achieve this.
Regards,
Abhishek

Hi,
So far me too have configured and getting free goods for one material. for your requirement, i think you have to tell your Abaper to do corresponding Enhancement.
Thanks

Adding same Free Goods items in the sales order

Hello experts,
We are using (exclusive) free goods functionality. In condition records you can specify the free goods that should be added to certain materials when they are ordered by the customer. The problem is this: when different materials should lead to the same free goods item, the system is creating an item line for free goods for every single material for which a free goods condition record is created. The business would like to see that free goods item lines that contain the same free goods material is consolidated into 1 item line. The reason for this is that the external service provider is charging per item line that is dispatched to them. As far as I know standard SAP does not support this functionality. Do any of you have encountered the same problem? I'm very curious if there is any solution for this issue.
Regards, Charles

Hi,
Not sure but still putting my openion,
Let system determine more FREE items in sales order but when creating order it should consolidate in one single line item with quantity.
For this write data transfer routine in VOFM
Write logic if in sales order have more items with same item category say TANN then consolidate it in one single line item with all qty.
And then assign same routine in copy control order to delivery.

Free Goods Determination

Hello All,
 Can any one please explain the process of Free Goods Determination with both exclusive/inclusive and the config settings .
Thanks in advance
Regards

Hello Manoj
Please find the detailed explanation on Free goods below 
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.
a. 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.
b. 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.
a. 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.
b. 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.
c. 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.

Free Goods - Not showing in sales order as subsequent item

Dear Gurus,
I have created a Free Goods procedure determination and maintained it at Customer/ Material level in VBN01.
The procedure is inclusive as follow:
For every 100 units purchased, the customer gets 10 units free
However at sales order level there is no indication at all that the Free Goods are being triggered.
When I check the pricing procedure, the condition record NA00 that I have used doesn't show-up.
There is no subsequent item in the sales order under the main item showing the Free-Goods discount.
Could you please help me go through the customizing process to correct the error?
Many thanks for your help
Chris

Hi,
FYI
Free goods can be configured in SAP by following two methods.
(1) Manually
(2) Automatically
Manually: By specifying higher level item category for a line item we can determine free goods as a free of charge
items during sales order processing.
Automatically: System proposes free of goods automatically in the sales order. In automatic free goods
configuration system follows two methods.
(1) Exclusive
(2) Inclusive
Exclusive: System configures free goods in exclusive option like free goods quantity is going to be excluded in
order quantity. Ex: For 10 items 1 item is free. Then system configures free goods as 10 + 1.
Inclusive: System configures free goods in inclusive option like free goods quantity is going to be included in order
quantity. Ex: For 10 items 1 item is free. Then system configures free goods as 9 + 1.
NOTE: In exclusive method other items also can be given as a free of charge items for order item.
Configuration steps: INCLUSIVE
SAP follows condition technique to configure free goods automatically.

Then the system calculates value of the free goods as 100% discount as we discussed above the same material [that
is going to be given as a free of charge item]. Some times the same item is going to be given as a normal item.
Then system calculates price for normal item and system should not calculate price for same item [free of charge

R100.
Alt CBV = 28: [100% Discount] Condition type R100 should be taken as a ZERO value. The formula 28

receives 20 cases of same material as free. That means, the business can say that buy 100 and get 20. If the
customer orders for 162 cases, then system automatically grants 32 cases as a free of cost (162x20/100 = 32 Cases).
2 = Unit of reference: When customer orders for 100 cases of material u201CXu201D, then the customer receives an
additional 20 cases as a free of goods. That means business can say that buy 100 get 20 free by granting 200 free
for every full of 100 cases. The customer places order for 162, then system automatically grants only 20 cases
(100x20/100=20).

20 cases of material u201CXu201D as a free of goods item. The business can say that buy 100 and get 20 free of charge items.
If the customer orders for increment of 100 that means 200 (100 + 100) items, then he gets 40. If he placed the

Condition type NRAB = Free goods: Requirement = 59, Alt CBV = 29: [only for INCLUSIVE purpose]
Requirement 59: We have to assign requirement 59 to the condition type NRAB. If the customer buys 100 cases
of product u201CXu201D, then he receives 10 cases of the product free. If the user would not like the additional line item in
the sales order for free goods rather than the discount of the 10 cases is represent in the same line item as other 90
cases. If the free goods discount should not apply on credit for returns that do not make reference in the previous
document.
Alt CBV 29: The condition type NRAB is to be assigned with 29 formula to support inclusive free goods
agreement where the user would have to apply the discount to the order item rather than having a sub item
generated for the free quantity.
Ex: The customer orders for 100 cases of product u201CXu201D, 10 cases are free instead of having a free sub item generated
b the system to represent the free 10 cases, the user would like to have a discount applied to the 100 cases line item
equal to the value of the 10 cases.
NOTE: Free goods can only be configured on document category type u201CCu201D (OR). That means we cannot configure
free goods on Inquiry and Quotation.
Header Conditions
SAP has delivered two kinds of condition types: (1) Header conditions
(2) Item conditions
Header conditions: The value of the header condition applies to the whole items in the sales document.
Header conditions do not have any access sequence.
So that, value of the header conditions should be maintained manually.
Ex: HA00, HB00
Configuration settings:
Include condition types HA00, HB00 in V/08 in between the discount condition types.
Go to VA01 and raise the sales order
Select line item and go to Go to button
Header Conditions
Include condition type HA00 HB00 with values [HA00 is percentage discount and HB00 is absolute
discount]
If HA00 = 1%, then system applies 1% on base value on all items in the sales order.
If HB00 = 100/- Rupees, then system applies 100/- Rupees proportionately to all items in the sales order. If sales
order has two items, then system applies 50/- Rupees to each item.
Click on activate button
Go to item condition screen
Check how system applied header conditions for line items
NOTE: Make sure that sales order contains more than one item.
Condition Scales
We can maintain scales for each and every condition type. So that we can determine pricing conditions values
depending upon the range of the order quantity.
Ex: If you maintain condition record for PR00 for material one as a 100/- Rs. For 1 material, then we can maintain
scales for this material like below:
From Quantity Price
1 u2013 10 1000
11 u2013 20 999
21 u2013 30 998
31 u2013 40 997
Configuration settings:
Go to VK11
Maintain condition record for PR00
Select line item and click on scales icon on the application tool bar
Maintain scales and scale rates accordingly
Save and Exit
Go to VA01 and raise the sales order
Enter the order quantity according to the scale and see the scale effect

Free goods more than one for a single good

hi gurus
how to allocate more than one free goods for the purchase of one material. answers will be highly apprecieated

hi,
FREE-OF-CHARGE Goods delivered on purchase of a material can be created in transaction VBN1. But it can be only on a 1:1 ratio, hence for one material you can propose only one free good. Read the constraints of Free goods as per SAP Documentataion :
Constraints
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.
Hope i`ve cleared ur query, reward points if so.

Where we have to create free of goods?.Is it in MM or pricing.
Is it necesssary to stock the free material.
If free goods also manufacturing in a same plant,how to handle in sales order.Because this item already created in MM

hi,
Instead of giving monetary benefits, the company prefers to give the free goods for the customer in the ratio of 1:1 occasionally.
in standard sap, normal pricing procedure will be assigned to ur sales area Doc. pricing procedure (A) Customer pricing procedure, where as free goods also will be assigning it to ur sales area,but the document pricing procdure will be as C- denotes free goods.
In sap, the free goods condition type is NA00, and even access seq. also will be Similar to condition type (it's ur wish to maintain like that), and the pricing procedure as NA0000.
the transaction code for freegoods is VBN1, where u can maintain ur condition records, here there will be a two option.
1. inclusive and 2. exclusive. maintain the records and save it.
kindly check the item category TANN, there pricing relevance should be B- free goods.
u have to maintain the free goods stock in ur plant. (its juz for transaction purpose).
i hope ur problem will be solved.

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.

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.

Free Goods sub item split in two line items

Sir,
I give free good along with sale item ,but i want free goods quantity split in two lines ,so how I do that?
Please help .

Hi,
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: u2018With material 1, material 2 and material 3 are free of chargeu2018 or u2018If material 1 and material 2 are ordered at the same time, then material 3 is free of chargeu2018.
- 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.
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.

VBN1 - Create free goods determination
e.g. FREE inclusive

                       5           3                1                      1                1
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
Hopefully this will help to resolve the answer.
Thanks & regards,

Earlier we had a so many offers like one car to one car free, we can easily assign the free goods through t.Code VBN1, but this time this is very difference issues. Our company giving the offer to some selected customers who are booking the 3 cases main product they are getting the one case other product free. How configure in SAP?
 3 cases of Product A they getting the 1 cases of Product B.
 15 Cases of product C they getting 2 Cases of Product D.
Answers will be highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Shankar G.

Hi,
This requirement can also be mapped through transaction VBN1 only.
3 cases of Product A they getting the 1 cases of Product B.
- Go to VBN1, specify condition type NA00 and Press Enter
- Here enter Product A, min. qty as 3 and For as 3 and Free goods category as 2 i.e. Exclusive. Now you will get an additional column as "Additional material for free goods", under this column enter material code of Product B there and Additional quantity of Product B as 1.
- Save and then try creating sales order of Product A.
15 Cases of product C they getting 2 Cases of Product D.
- Try in similar way as suggested above.

Free good on the transaction VBN1
