Free Goods based on order value
Hello,
We would like to setup a new promo - if your order exceeds $X, get a specified material for free.
Is it possible to setup and how?
Thank you for all your help!
Mila.
Yes. This scenario is very much possible, although I haven't tried.
Refer the following SDN thread, which discussed of a similar sort requirement:
- Exclusive Free Goods Based on Value irrespective of the material.
In case of any further information or clarification or face any difficulty in applying the same, please do revert.
Regards

Can I use automatic Free goods determination for QT order types.
however i am using it for OR right now and i have done the related configuration for QT as well but system is not detmining Free Goods for QT order types.
I have also maintained the below entry in "Determine Item Category for Free Goods Item"
Sa Type ItCGr Usg. HLevelItCa DfltC
QT NORM FREE AGN AGNNHi
Std SAP itself doesnt support Free Goods at quotation level
Standard SAP supports Free Goods at quotation level and hence the item categories AFNN and AGNN are provided in the standard SAP. But, the Automatic determination of Free Goods is not possible for SD documents under category other than 'C'.
In your scenario...since the automatic determination is not possible, think about handling the functionality manually or through user exits.
Thanks,

Free goods , contract, creating order
Hello SAP Prof,
1. what is the diff b/w Free goods and Bonus buy?
2. What is Rental Contract and service contract?
3. How can we create our own order ,
( we can copy std order.) But plz tell me how to create order with copy controls in detail.Hi Rajesh
Free goods are considered to be merchandise, moveable belongings or personal property. Free goods are those which economists are not interested in because in free goods doe not offer the opportunity for creating a cost for usage. The best example of free goods is air because there is no scarity of air. Economists are interested only in goods, which can be manipulated to create cost for useage. Free goods are plentiful, you have as much as you want without a chance for future cost to society.
A bonus buy refers to any product manufactured or otherwise made available for purchase at a lower cost for a certain period of time. A bonus buy can relate to food, cars, stocks, bonds, insurance, bank loans or almost any product you can think of.
Examples of Bonus buys are: Buy one and get one free, 20% original price, 15% Reduced Mortgage today.
SERVICE CONTRACT:
A service contract is an arrangement between a service provider and service recipient and is characterized by a separate lease and service contract term. The lease usually ranges from 22 to 27 years while the service contract ranges from 13 to 18 years in length. The combination of the lease and service contract terms is typically 80% of the useful life of the asset. While the equity return is based on the overall term, depreciation occurs over 125% of the lease term only which differs from a pickle structure where depreciation occurs over the entire deal term. The participants in this type of transaction are the service provider or lessor, service recipient or lessee, operator, and customer. Typically, a service contract is used with assets such as gas, water, and power distribution networks and generation facilities. However, they can also be applied to real estate and securitization transactions.
A service contract is considered a property lease under section 7701(e) of the IRS Code if certain requirements hold. These requirements are divided into general and special criteria groups. Section 7701(e) outlines six criteria in the general case which indicate when a service contract should actually be classified as a lease:
If the service recipient is in physical possession of the property
If the service recipient controls the property
If the service recipient has a significant economic interest in the property
If the service provider has no economic risk in the contract
If the service provider does not provide services to a third party
If the contract price does not substantially exceed the rental value of the property
To obtain classification as a service contract, the first two rules essentially require a management contract so that the service provider maintains control of the property. The service recipient is allowed to retain an interest in the land underlying the asset via a ground lease without being considered in physical possession of the property. However, they will not be able to mandate how the property is maintained, operated, or improved. There are five rules to consider which determine significant economic interest in a property:
If the property is utilized by a service recipient for most of its useful life
If the service recipient bears the risk of a decline in value of the property
If the service recipient shares the reward for an increase in value of the property
If the service recipient receives a portion of savings in operating costs
If the service recipient bears the risk of damage or loss of the property
To be considered a service contract, the fourth general rule requires the service provider to bear the risk of reduced receipts or increased expenses as the result of non-performance under the contract. An exception to this rule is a provision which allows for an output contract to remain in force during short shut-downs of a facility. To resemble a service contract, the fifth rule states that services must be provided to someone other than the service recipient. For example, a purchaser of power should allow sales to customers and not use all of it for themselves. The last rule states that the total contract price should substantially exceed the value of the property to be classified as a service contract. Thus, if the contract price is derived mostly from recovery of costs of the property or there is a separation between use and service charges of the property, then the contract will resemble a lease.
An important item to note is that not all six requirements need to be satisfied to be considered a service contract. Section 7701(e) does not weight any of the criteria but simply allows for a contract either resembling a lease or a service contract. This would imply that a simple majority of criteria is necessary for classification.
Section 7701(e)(3) provides special rules for determining whether a contract is a service contract. These special rules apply only to the following types of facilities: qualified solid waste disposal, cogeneration, alternative energy, and water treatment works. The following four special rules replace the general rules for the above facility types and indicate when a service contract should actually be classified as a lease:
If the service recipient operates the facility
If the service recipient risks a significant financial loss when there is non-performance under the contract
If the service recipient risks a significant financial gain when operating costs are less that the standards of performance under the contract
If the service recipient has a purchase option or is required to buy all or part of the facility at a fixed price other than the fair market value
There are three main differences between the special and general rules. The first one is that with the special rules, lower operating costs cannot be passed on to the service recipient. Secondly, the risk of temporary shut down of the facility can be shared by the service recipient. Lastly, all costs and benefits due to changes in the law can be passed on to the service recipient.
Service contracts have less tax downside and less financial risk as well as more even returns over time. Also, the contract must be carefully structured to qualify as a service contract. While it is easier to qualify under the special rules, there are many fewer available facilities. The main tax benefit for classification as a service contract is the allowance for depreciation over 125% of the lease term rather than 125% of the combined lease and service contract terms.
RENTAL CONTRACT
A rental agreement is a contract, usually written, between the owner of a property and a renter who desires to have temporary possession of the property. As a minimum, the agreement identifies the parties, the property, the term of the rental, and the amount of rent for the term. The owner of the property may be referred to as the lessor and the renter as the lessee.

Free item for total order value
Hi experts......
i Have a scenario.....
in a supermarket there is an offer.. saying if you buy for a total value of 500 rs... a gift of wort 100 rs is free.......how to configure this?
SamathaHi there,
Is your $100 free applicable on the purchase of any goods?
Then this is what you need to do. Define a new discount condition type. Define a new table with sales org / order type & assign it to the access seq of the condition type. Maintain the condition type in your pricing procedure. In the requirement routine of the condition type, put a customized logic. For that pass the net value of the order into a subtotal. In the customized logic, read the value from the sub total. If it is >= $500, then only the new discount condition type should apply. In the condition records maintain a value of $100.
This will ensure that if the value of the SO is >= $500, then $100 discount will be granted.
Or if your discount is based upoon purchase of a particular item, then this is what you do.
For this we need to define the Free goods determination procedure. We need to have a customized code in the requirement routine that we assign to the condition type NA00. Pass the net value of the order into a sub total. In the code put a logic that system reads the net value in the sub total. If the value is >= 500, then only NA00 will apply.
When maintaining the condition records, select 'inclusive' on the top menu bar.
Hope this helps.

Free goods by header net value not Quantity
Regards
My client wants to make a sales promotions as the free goods SD. The difference is that free goods should not be given by the bought quantity of certain material, they should be given from the header net value of an order.
For example:
If a customer have an order with header net value of 100$ from only materials that has certain material pricin group, it should receive one free good.( All the materials in the order have the same material pricing group)
If a customer have an order with header net value of 200$ from only materials that has certain material pricin group, it should receive two free goods.
If there are ways to make this happen please let me know i would really appreciate it.
Thanks
Edited by: Ronald Caroli on Feb 13, 2008 9:13 PMHi ronald,
The userexit option is very tough to do.
You are using a right userexit, but how are you coding it? Whats your design and flow?
The BDC are programmable recordings of a standard transaction. Hence you will be able to record the way in which you add a line item to sales order. Ths recording is automatically converted into lines of code by SAP. Then you insert your checks and balances between these lines of code to make it behave the way you want the sequence of transactions to work.
My thought was to make a recording of adding a new line item, in change sales order transaction(va02), with item category as Free of Charge(FOC). Then in the code, I wanted to check for material pricing group, if found correct, then would go finding the net value of sales document. If the value is above the limit, calculate the target quantity. Then follow the rest of the recording and add a new line with FOC as item category.
But this was a seperate transaction, which could be applied seperately and not to be done automatically in sales order. This was becuase say if you switch off the promotion tomorrow, then you will not have to worry abt removing the same functionality from sales order, you just need to de-activate the transaction.
Then there would be issues of doing hardcoding the net value limits, free good quantity in the user exit which is not at all recommended.
Hope this helps.

Hi All
We have invoiced few materials but the accounting entries are not generated due to price error. Here the product hierarchy is missing for the main item and the sub item(free goods). I am not able to edit the sub item product hierarchy in invoice or in sale order. Please give me the solution for this so that I will be able to update the product hierarchy for the sub item.Hi
I just tested it and it seems standard behavior. When there is a sub item in sale order in free goods system is doesn't allow to change any material group, material description, condition group and some other fields. This is logical because this material is now linked to main item and during order processing user shouldn't be able to make changes in order for sub item which is free.
Now what you can do is that if this is only for this one order you can delete the line items from sale order and enter product hierarchy in free good's material master data. System will fetch this information from there and it will be automatically filled.
Another work around is that delete line item of free goods and add that material again. Now in Hl Itm (Higher Level Item) field give item number of main item which probably in your case will be 10. System will make this item free based on your item category determination settings and you will be able to make changes in product hierarchy field.

Intrastat Germany Free Goods comes error "invoice value to be filled"
Hi Gurus,
I am running Intrastat in GTS for Germany.
For free goods we are entering the statistical value but invoice value
must be zero, because these are free goods.
But GTS does not allow a Zero value as invoice value.
What to do? Please help
Thanks
DieterHi,
This may be fine for this case, but as explained earlier the same item category is being used when you are doing the normal returns without any reference (stand alone returns).
So how this will tackle if you remove the pricing indicator totally? I need to complete the return order as usual but with zero pricing- only when it is referred to free goods invoice and when stand alone returns (or) when referred to F2 value invoice, in these cases the returns will be with value.
Please get back to me with your answers.

How to restrict manual changing of free goods in sales order
Hi ,
Goodmorning ,
We have some requirement : In sales order free goods quantity determination by system should not be allowed to change manually , where can we do this ?
Looking for your inputs
Thanks and regards
VenkatAs per SAP Standard, when the main Item quantity is changed, the Free Goods are redetermined. In this case any manual changes to Free Goods Quantities are lost.
But your requirement is for restricting the Chages of the Quantity of Free Goods Correct?
I believe there is no SAP standard solution for this. You will have to apply a User Exit, which will check the Item category of each LIne item & if it is free goods (TANN) then changes are not permitted.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

Giving BOM material as free good in Sales Order
Hi,
I have a business requirement.
I want to give a free good in Sales Oreder which is a BOM material.This should be possible by manually changing Item category for the line item in the Sales Order just like how we can change TAN to TANN in normal circumsatnces when we add free good material for any NON BOM material.
In standard functionality,the item category determined for this BOM material is TAQ but this item category field in Sales Order is non editable because of which I can not include the BOM material as free good in my sales order.
I have already defined one z Item category for free goods for this BOM material & want to use it in Sales Order.
Can you please suggest how this can be handled ?
Or is there any other work around by which will allow me to include BOM material as free good in my Sales Order ?
Thanks in advance
Regards,
BMHi,
Thanks everyone for the feedback.I agree with Samir Danish.It is a standard functionality of SAP which does not allow free goods for BOM material.
However, can someone suggest work around to deal with this issue.I mean if any one has been doing any work around for this issue then please let me know.It s becoming critical for me.

There are two sales order type standard(A) and promotion(C) defined in our business.
when we create standard order it will goods automatically capture the free goods we maintaind.
However for promotion order, the system shows below message:
Free goods could not be determined for item 000001
Document category is not from sales order category (VBTYP <> 'C')
whether it is unable to use free goods for order type "C"?
Please advice,
Many thanks,
YangDear Yadav
There are two order type ZAA1 - standard ZAA2 - promotion
two item cateogry ZDC0 - standard ZDC1 - free of charge.
I made a test to change the item category assignment as ZAA1 with ZDC1 and ZAA2 with ZDC0.
Still the free goods can automatically captured with standard order but promotion failed.
So I think the difinition of item category is no problem and it may related to sales order type.
My colleague told me it is unable to use free goods for the sales order which SD document category is not "C".
I try to change the SD document categ from I to C for promotion order and the free goods appear.
So the result is if i define the SD document category as I that I can't use function of free goods?
Please advice
Many thanks,
Yang

Free Goods Without Sales Order
Dear Gents
We have a scenario where goods are issued for free without a sales order,it's not considered sales,they just give some materials out from the stock as gifts&issue it on a cost center , there is no sales order,invoice,etc..is it normal then that the accounting entry passed would be Dr Cost Of Goods Sold Cr Inventory or what should be the correct scenario , Thanks.Dear Expert,
When Goods are Given as gifts or Samples it becomes an expense for the company. So in my view it has to be shown as an expense.
The Accounting Entry would be :
Advertising A/c ....Dr
To Purchases A/c ....Cr
