Free goods not determined
Hi Friends,
For free goods, system is not automatically determining during sales order creation.
Free goods are determined only if manually entered in sales order with item category TANN.
what configuration setting should be looked into?
Thanks
Hi kamesh,
In IMG, I activated free goods.
I created NA00 record.
I created sales order but system is not determing free goods. I checked free goods analysis and it indicates condition record not found.
I checked NA00 record again but can't see anything missing.
I am working on exclusive method and my scenario is if customer purchases 100 washing machines, for every 30 machines, one machine is given free.
can you suggest how to work on this?
Thanks

After saving the STO, we are releasing it through ME29N.
Then we are generating Outbound Delivery through VL10B.
The OBD document also does not include the Free Article.

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
ChrisHi,
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.

Requirement 55: The Routine No. 55 is assigned to condition type R100. If the user wants to look both revenues
and sales deductions for the free items since the product that we are going to give as a free of charge item can be
sold separately in the same sales order. Then the item category of free goods TANN has the pricing value as B.
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
item]. So as to perform this calculation we have to assign Requirement/Routine 55 is to assign condition type
R100.
Alt CBV = 28: [100% Discount] Condition type R100 should be taken as a ZERO value. The formula 28
calculates condition type R100 value as a ZERO.

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

See the Free Goods effect.
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 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
AtulHi 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

BOM+Free Goods+Material Determination
Hi,
My company want to give free goods in Bill of materials.But system is not accepting that.How can we do that?
I am getting the same problem with Material Determination and Free Goods combination.When i configure material determination for a material which is having free goods system is not showing...any idea?
Points for sure.Hi,
The constraints for free goods in SAP are as follow
<u><b>Constraints</b></u>
Free goods is currently only supported on a 1:1 basis. This means that an order item can only be
the source of one free goods item. This means that agreements involving relationships such as
'Buy material 1 and get material 2 and material 3 free of charge' or 'Order material 1 and material
2 together and get material 3 free of charge' are not supported.
<u><b>Free goods is not currently supported in combination with material structures (e.g. product
selection, bills of material, variants with BOM explosion</b></u>).
Free goods is currently only supported for sales orders with document category C (not for
quotations, for example).
Free goods is not currently supported for deliveries without reference to a sales order.
Free goods is not currently supported for make-to-order production, third-party order processing
and scheduling agreements.
Hope it helps you.

Free goods not reflecting in PO from Info Record
Hi,
My requirement is , when ever i order 100 qty from a vendor 10 qty should be delivered free of cost.
I am trying to maintain Info record for the same..
Now when i created PO for the same...I entered 100 qty..it is not reflecting 10 qty in another line in PO..
Where i am wrong?
UtsHI,
Have maintained the values in
*Spro-Purchasing-Discount in kind-Define & assign discount in kind schema-Maintain free goods schema*
It will be available in standard SAP if not do the following configuration
Here
Usage -N
Application -M
create procedure NR0001
In control data
step-10
Cond Type-NR00
Then save.
Next
Define free good schema
Here assign ur schema grp of vendor
Then assign the procedure created previously (i-e) NR001 & THEN SAVE.
The above configuration is very important for the free goods scenario to work.
Then go to MM and in purchasing view and give the value 2.
Then in MBN1 create the condition record for the IR -0.
Then create the PO it will work definetly.

Free Goods not appearing in the Sales Order
Hi,
I have created the condition record for Exclusive free goods for a material. However when i create a sales order with the same material, the free goods materials is not appearing.
I did a Free goods Analysis in the sales order and when i checked the field values, I found that for a particular access sequence it says "Access not made ( initialized field)"
Please help.
Thanks.Hi,
This error usually happens when we donot maintain any of the fields in the access sequence that we use.For Eg., if your access sequence is Sales Org/Dist Channel/Mat group and if you fail to maintain your condition record with the same sequence,you will get this error.Please maintain the condition record with the respective access sequence and you will not get this error.Please try and confirm.
(Also in the above example even if you maintain condition record and didnot maintain material group in the materisl master you will get this error.So check all the possibilities and confirm.)

Free goods should not determine in sales order
Hi,
I have maintained the free goods determination in SAP CRM with validity period in T Code: /sapcnd/gcm and have created a quotation for the material which has a free goods validity.The free goods are determined at quotation level, when i was converting the quotation to the sales order the free goods validity period got expaired.In this case the free goods are should not get determined in the sales order.But when i test it in IDES system the free goods are getting determined in the sales order eventhough free goods validity period expaired.
Can any one tell me how to restict the free goods in the sales order level when the validity period expaired at the time of sales order create.
Regards
NagarajuHi ,
You can use the BADI CRM_COPY_BADI. Here you can implement the check for products which are free and have expired to be excluded from copying from quotation to sales order.

Free Goods determination in Invoice
Hi Experts,
My query is regarding Free Goods. Free Goods are determined in the sales order. Now lets assume that I have maintained free goods scheme for product A as 10 qty free on 100 Qty.
At the time of delivery, if insufficient stock (60 Qty - batch B) is there, my delivery qty will get reduced to like:
Main Item = 50 Qty
Free Item = 10 Qty
Kindly note that batches are automatically determined in the delivery and only one batch B with qty 60 is available.
Now at the time of creating invoice, I wish to check the scheme that the main qty and free goods qty should be in exact ratio as maintained in the condition master for free goods.
My question is how to restrict invoice creation in case of mismatch in main item qty and free item qty.
Thanks.I have maintained inclusive free goods condition with 9+1 scheme.
Now when I create sales order for 30 qty, main item will be 27 and free item will be 3.
Available stock = 25
At the time of delivery creation,
main item = 25
free item = 3
Case 1. IF I don't change the qty, I cannot do PGI as stock is only 25 (Main item + free Item = 28)
Case 2. But if I change the main item to 22, free goods qty will remain as 3. And system allows to do PGI. (No decimal qty allowed as sales UOM is the smallest UOM.)
Case 3. When I change main qty to 18, free qty changes to 2.
Now I wish to restrict case 2. (Case 1 is not possible and case 3 is acceptable.)
Kindly suggest. -
Free Goods Should not down MAP -
Hi, MM / FI Gurus!
We have a scenario where Vendor offers a Discount in Kind. For e.g. For Order Qty over 1000 Pcs vendor offers 10 Pcs free over each 100 Pcs. Assuming PO price as 10 units then for 1200 Ordered Qty vendor delivers 1200 + 120 = 1320
In PO the Free Goods are determined correctly (in either cases whether Inclusive / Exclusive). Order quantity in first line has a gross price determined. The second line tiem in PO has Free Goods Quantity determined as per procedure for Discount in Kind, with zero price.
When we do GR the Inventory is up by Order Quantity + Free Goods Quantity.
Automatic posting in MM determines the GL correctly.
Dr Inventory - Drugs and Meds: 128010 Amt 12000 Curr
Cr GR/IR Clearing: 200060 Amt 12000- Curr
As expected MAP goes down due to Free Goods (Zero Price)
Client wants to up the inventory for by Order Qty + Free-Goods Qty but this should not down the MAP as well.
I have activated Direct Posting to G/L Accounts and Material Accounts for Incoming Invoice
Idea was to Credit Gross Price on the Free goods Quantity to Inventory - Drugs and Meds: 128010 to make up the MAP in material master and Debit the same amount to Other Income as follow:
Dr GR/IR Clearing: 200060 Amt 12000 Curr
Cr Vendor Account: 200001 Amt 12000- Curr
Dr Inventory - Drugs and Meds: 128010 Amt 1200 Curr (Free Goods)
Cr COS-Drugs & Med: 500100 Amt 1200- Curr (Free Goods)
However we cannot post Gross-price for Free goods Directly on the same GL(which has Automatic posting Checked) to Up the MAP (which falls down because of free goods having zero price).
Is there any way in FI to have both Automatic and Manual posting for the same GL?
Also I am not sure that after we do this if MAP will be Up.
Is there any other way may be by using Movement Type for such Movements?
Thanks
Atul SonalkarHi Atul
Create PO only for the material for which you are going to pay your vendor.
ie., for 1000 units @ Rs. 12 = 12000. Post GR.
Now you are getting 100 units free. Don't enter this in your existing PO. Create a new PO for the free goods and post GR.
Your MAP related problem will be solved.

Rajesh
