Free goods in Retail
Hi
These are scenario for Beverage business- mostly they have complicated promotion on free gifts which I think SAP ERP SD cannot cover it. I also check Promotion in retail and found out, if it's discount - it can handled but for free goods - there is similar to ERP Sales. If anyone can take a look at the below case and share with me whether IS-Retail can handle it or any idea how to handle it as now I can only think of custom development.
This is pretty much general scenario in Thailand, not only beverage but wholesales & distribution but I don't think SAP ERP can handle it smoothly.
1. Buy soda water size 10 oz regardless of soda taste (coke, orange, grape) for 1 pack (1 pack consist of 24 bottles) then get 1 bottle free.
2. Buy soda water size 10 oz regardless of soda taste for 1 pack, then get 1 bottle free - maximum at 2 sets.
3. Buy soda water either size 10 oz or 15 oz for 1 pack, get 1 bottle of 10 oz free
4. Buy soda water regardless of soda taste as set i.e. for every 36 packs of combine size 10 oz, 15 oz and 1 lt - get free items of 10 oz/15 oz for 2 bottles per pack and free item of 1lt for 1 bottle per pack
5. Similar to 4 with additional condition that 1 soda taste must be more than 50% - for example, it must be coke at least 50%
6. Sales quota - Buy 1 pack, get 1 bottle free - maximum 100 bottles for each customer
Please kindly share your experience or ideas. Thank you

HI,
1. Use txn VBK1 to create a bonus buy condition
2. In SAP Retail, we can create % Off Conditions, Absolute Off Conditions as standard promotion conditions, Special Price Conditions.
3. You can also can create Bonus Buy: Price, Bonus Buy: % Discount, Bonus Buy: Absolute Discount and Bonus Buy: Free Goods conditions.
For Example: Buy 4 Get 1 Free Article is a Bonus Buy condition. for this try In VBK1, use Discount Type BB04 to configure bonus buy.
For more information plz try this link http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/40/c0e238f0d111d2adff080009d2232d/frameset.htm

1. Company/Material
2. Sales org/Material
3. Sales org./Distr. Channel/Material
4. Sales org./Distr. Channel/Plant/Material
5. Sales org./Plant/Material
Maintained a pricing procedure and and assigned all item catogories... maintained Codition records.....
And result is that first 3 tables are working, but last 2 not....
Help required plz..:)
Best regards,
Dace.Hi Dace.
Check the Access sequence - Access number used for the respective table No
As a good practice always:
1.Please use the Access sequence - Access number starting with 10 & increment with 10
2.When you are saving the Access Sequence, after assigning relevant Table No, Pls go to the Fields level, Check the respective fiels are copied fully, and then Save.
Hope thisll help you

Thanks in advance.

Retail promotions - idoc download free goods
Hello,
Regarding promotions it seems the information can flow in several idoc's: WP_PLU, WBBDLD, WPDREB, and eventually others.
In the specific case of free goods promotions I cannot find this information in any of this idoc's.
(the example on WAK* is: for each 5 EAN sale you'll giveaway 1 EAN extra)
Any info on this?
Regards!Thanks a lot Gnana,
To sum up the client needs regarding promotion data download, can you confirm:
- Promo header data (no matter what kind of promotion) - always flows on WPDREB;
- promotional pricing or promotional discount - WP_PLU and WBBDLD (here we use only WP_PLU and I can see promo code on "AKTIONSNR" in pricing condition segment E1WPA04);
- free goods and bonus buy - WPDBBY;
- Cupons are also in WPDBBY?;
Thanks a lot! -
Free goods determination in variant article
Hi ALL!!!!
The issue is regarding IS-Retail. In case of order processing with variant article free goods is not getting active. The item category of the parent article is TAG and for the variants is TAN. When I am maintaining freegoods for the variant then also its not getting picked up nor when I am maintaining free goods for the parent article.
Please suggest
regardsHi
1) In IS-Retail Variant article as called Generic Articles (retail terminalogy).
2) Come to freegoods, In retail you can use promotion concept to maintain the freegoods determination for generic artilces and it should test with POS system.

Hello All,
Can any one please explain the process of Free Goods Determination with both exclusive/inclusive and the config settings .
Thanks in advance
RegardsHello Manoj
<b>Please find the detailed explanation on Free goods below </b></b>
<b>Free goods</b> 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. <b>Inclusive Bonus Quantities </b> 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. <b>Exclusive Bonus Quantities </b> 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.
<b>Note:</b> 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.
<b>a. Prorated </b> 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>b. Related to units </b> 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.
<b>c. Whole units </b> 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 determination with Free of charge delivery
Hello
After maintaining the Free goods Determination Record for a material using VBN1, when I create the order with order type OR, the free goods gets determined, where as when I create the order with order type FD, the free goods does not get determined. Can somebody let me know the reason for this happening and the solution please
Thanks in advance
AnoopHi
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.
Moreover your doc type FD has sales doc category as I in VOV8 in standards
Hence it is not working and wont work also
These SAP library statements answers your qn and the constraints of free goods in R3
As long as document category is not C in VOV8 for your order type you cant get free goods in sales order

i have created a condition record for a vendor, with the following particulars,
if the vendor e.g ven1 purchases material e.g mat1
min qty = 100
free goods qty = 10
add. free goods = 2
calculation method is prorated
and the type is Inclusive.
But when i try to create a purchase order for that vendor ven1 for 200 qty of mat1, the gross price being calculated is for 200 qty, but it should be calculated for the quantity excluding the free goods qty.

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
NunoHi 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

Group or package free goods problem
Dear gentlemen
We need to issue the following type of free goods: buy goods A, B and C and get D for free. We need to consider our A-B-C as a package, just like a single good. How can we enter master data for this free goods type?

Guayaquil, Ecuador, South AmericaHi carlos
I think in free goods it is not possible . we can fulfill your requirement through bonus buy functionality.
But bonus buy works in IS -RETAIL . It doesn't work in SD .
If we have to fulfill our requirement then we have to go for enhancements

Free goods of different material
Hi Experts,
I have mapped free goods scenario in our system.Its working well for inclusive and exclusive free goods for same material. i.e. If I have a material M1 ordered for 100 units I will get 10 units of the same material M1 free(Exclusive) and two line items generated TAN and TANN.
Similarly for inclusive condition,We have a material A1. If one orders 100 units of A1 he has to pay for 90 units only(TAN) and the remaining 10 units (TANN) comes for free.
Now I want to set up the system in such a manner that If the customer orders a material R1 of 100 units he will get material R2 of 10 units for free.
How do we do this setting? In NA00 itself? If yes please tel me the steps involved.

Assorted Free Goods Problems in Sales Order
Hello All,
The problem is related to Assorted Free Goods Pricing in Sales Order.I have two queries which are provided below with example:-
In the sales order I am giving 2 Line Items. -
Material A & Material B of total quantity 10PC Then 1 PC of the Material C as 3rd line item
in the sales order is populated which is maintained as an assorted free good having Manual Free Item Category for eg. ZFV5.
Similarly line items A & B combined of 10 PC = 1 PC of Material C having Manual Free Item Category for eg. ZFV5.
Again if 10 PC of Material A or B are chosen respectively = 1 PC of Material C having Manual Free Item Category for eg. ZFV5 .
_Now I want to configure the following**_ -
1) The system will include the cost of the Assorted Free Good Item within the Main Item.
2) While raising a Sales Return Order for the above mentioned Sales Order it is observed that the manual free item category ZFV5 is changed to the Return Main Item Category whereas I want the item category to be picked up is Return Free Item Category against the Manual Item category .
Now considering the above scenarios please suggest solutions to attain my requirement.
Looking forward to some valuable suggestions.
Thanks & Regards
PriyankaHi Priyanka
As far as what i understood from your post your requirement doesnt seem to be possible in standards
If you want the cost to be transferred to the main item then in VTFL at item level there is a check box of cumulative cost
That has to be ticked
