Free Goods Determination - Exclusive

Hi All,
Am trying to enable Free Goods determination (exclusive). I have set up the free goods determination procedure and the condition record. However, when I create my sales Order for the original material, a new line is generated with the material that should be given away for free however the quantity field is not populated. Any idea as to what I may be doing wrong ?
Condition Record is as follows (VBN1)
Material - Material A (This is the material for which the SO is raised)
Min Qty - 2
From - 2
UnitFG - EA
add FG - 1
AddQtyUnit - 1
in % = 33 % (this is an auto field that is calculated)
Calc Rule - 3
Free Goods - 2
AddMatFrGd - Material B (This is the material that should be provided for free)
FGDelyCont - B
Your help is immensely appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Imran

Hi Ramesh,
Thanks for your input. I did try your suggestion out, Calculation Rule 2, but it still does not work. I have attached the procedure to my document type.
When the SO is being created, an additional line item is generated with the free good material but without a quantity. how do i get it such that the quantity is also proposed on the new line item generated for the free good based on what has been defined in the condition record.

Imran

Free Goods Problem and User Exit if needed in Sales Order

Hello All,
The problem is related to Free Goods in Sales Order which is given with an example -
We have maintained Free Goods ( T Code - VBN1) in inclusive scenario which is as follows -
For 210 PAC (Pack) of Material A 18 PAC Free.
Where 1 PAC = 20 BT (Bottle) and 20 PAC = 1 CV (Case Pack)
In the material master of Material A the Base Unit Of Measurement (UOM) = PAC and Sales UOM = Blank so that we can use any conversion factor maintained for the material.
The conversion factors maintained for Material A are as follows -
1 BT = 1BT
1 PAC = 20 BT
1 CV = 20 PAC
Now when we are raising sales order for 11 CV the free goods are not generated in the Sale Order.
Again if we maintain the Sales UOM in CV and raise the sales order it is showing :
10 CV as main item and 1 CV as Free which is wrong because in the conversion factor we have already maintained 1CV = 20 PAC , Whereas in the inclusive scenario it is given 11CV = 210 PAC and 210 PAC = 18 PAC is free.So in any case it is taking into account 2 more PACs.
Please suggest what need to be done in this case in respect of User Exit or Source Code in ABAP if needed.
Thanks & Regards

Priyanka Mitra

Yes Priyanka
This is a very interesting and a challenging issue or question
I think because of the prorata calculation type the extra 2 units is coming
This logical error has happened to me too
Inclusive 210 units means we have defined as 192 + 18 in VBN1
But the system determines the free goods in sales order as 190 + 20 that means there are 2 units which are going free than what has been maintained as condition record
But system converts our logic into its own thro that calcultion type PRO RATA which is the main culprit here
So it requires ABAP help
This qn should be awarded points (unfortunately i am not able to do so)

Free goods problem

Hi,
I require free goods in quotation. For example If i enter 10 qty in quotation. The billing should be done only for 9 qty (10-1) for inclusive case.
and for exclusive case an addition line item should be generated with 1 quantity
1 is free good quantity.
The same thing should be copied to sales order, IF i create sales order with reference of quotation.
Kindly help me if any body is having an idea.
Thanks&Regards
(YUGANDHAR.P)

Hi Yugandhar,
You can maintain the scenario in free goods determination.
Using inclusive/exclusive and with Item generation and with out item generation.
And activate Complete reference indicator in VTAA for OR<-QT
It idicates whether the system copies the source document completely.
Procedure
If you mark the field, the system copies the source document into the target document completely. The system also copies the complete reference indicator. You cannot change the indicator in the target document.
Example
You mark a quotation for complete reference and you then copy the quotation into a sales order. Later, if you try to change an order quantity or to delete an item, the system sends a message.

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
Priyanka

Hi 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
Constraintsin free goods in R3
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.

Free goods problems changing material

Hello,
I am using free goods inclusive without item generation (NRAB condition).
I introduced a material A having free goods, ant it works fine, but if I change the material A for B in the same position (without free goods), the NRAB condition is maintained.
Has anyone seen this bug? Is there a note with this problem? I have searched it without successful.
(I am using SAP ECC 6.0
Alberto.

I suppose it disappears once you change qty (after you changed material A to B) ?

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?

Hi 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

Dear All,
I have done successfully free goods sale exclusive with item generation but facing problems with inclusive & inclusive without item generation, in VBN1 for NA00 I have maintained following.
material code - Min Qty - 5 - from - 10 PC - are free goods 1 PC- calc rule - 1
for inclusive and exclusive both in VA01 showing extra lines for freee goods (sale as exclusive)
I have searched at http://help.sap.com/saphelp_470/helpdata/en/06/629ee9fb9c11d199ee0000e8a5bd28/content.htm
here it is mentioned that -"In the free goods master record in the Free goods category field, select free goods category 3 (inclusive free goods without item generation)."
But I have not seeing any field in VBN1 t code where I can maintained free goods category as 3. Can anyone revert how I can maintained this free goods category for inclusive free goods without item generation.

In VBN2 Maintain (scroll right to get all field)
- calc. rule (Calculation type for determining free goods quantity) as 2(Unit reference).
FYI, Others are 1 - Pro rata & 3 - Whole units
- free goods category 3 - Inclusive rebate (w/o item generation; only for sales).
And coorespondingly maintain Free Goods delivery control.

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
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).
3 = Whole unit: When a customer places order for 100 cases of material u201CXu201D, then the customer receives additional
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

Promotion number in the sales order for free goods promotion.

Hi,
I have a business scenario in which "Sales Orders are created" for the customers in SAP IS Retail System.(This is for helpdesk ordering). In most of the occasions, free goods promotion would be running. The free goods promotions(exclusive) are maintained using promotion module in IS Retail system(condition type NA00). In this situation, the promotion number is not getting populated in the sales order automatically. Is there any specific configuration required or any BADI needs to be activated?
Note: Free goods item is getting generated automatically in the sales order with item category TANN.
Can any one advice pls.
Thanks and Regards,
Selvakumar

Hi selva
1)Check in Change Promotion T.code - WAK2
in the item level Promotion announcement category(Ann column) - set indicator as F Promotion announcement
2)Check sales periods dates - Sales order from to TO it should be valid date
if not works, reply me i will give some more solutions

Free Goods Quantity Control

Greetings all SD Gurus,
Would really appreciate some advice here. Currently I have a free goods condition ( exclusive ) - NA00 for a material set in such way that :
For every 100 items ordered , there will be 5 free items of the same material.
The condition is working fine. But users wanted the quantity field for the free item to be program is such way that they can decrease the quantity of free items from 5 but they can't increase the free items to more than 5.
My question is - can this be configured in SPRO without creating a program in userexit . If yes, how do I go around it ? Or is there any other alternatives ?
Many thanks in advance.
Warmest Regards,
Ed Ong

Hi Ashish,
Thanks for your suggestion but unfortunately, it's not applicable for the requirement. What the user wanted was a checking procedure to run during the manual changes of quantity in free goods before the doc was saved.

Ed

Free Goods Pricing Error

Dear SAP Gurus,
I have configurde the Free Goods as Exclusive and accordingly kept the condition records. When I am creating Sales Order, I have given the first line item as 1482 and when I entered
, the second line item automaticaly vame with item category TANN. Everything is fine up to this. I have kept price in VK11 for the material 1482 and 1483 is the free material.
At the time of creating Sales Order, it giving the error as "Pricing error: Mandatory Condition ZPR1 is missing"
I could not find out any solution for this. Please help in finding the solution for this.
Thanks,
Jans

Hi Jans
Your free goods configuration is something like buy 10 pens and get one pencil free
Free goods are picked by R100 condition type with requirement 55 and aternate base value formula 28 in the pricing procedure
Free goods are represented with item category TANN with pricing as B in VOV7 which measns 100 % discount
This means the price of the pencil is to be maintained as condition record in VK11 for the condition type ZPR1 (in your case) which will be picked by the system and nullifies it with 100 % discount
This is missing from your end (this is my guess only)
Without knowing the price of the second material 1483 how the system will give 100 % discount for it
Soln is
Maintain the condition record for the condition type ZPR1 in VK11 for the free material 1483
Hope this may help you
