Free goods process requirement

Hi experts,
My client has a new sales process coming up for which he has the following requirement:
He wants to give free of charge item(Sales promotion kind of) for a certain qty of material ordered.
For Eg: For 10 pieces of Material A he wants to give 1 piece of Material B free of cost.
Is this possible in std SAP?
Also, consider that we have 3 materials A1, A2 & A3 which are material of the same nature but different colour, and hence they have different material codes.
Like the above scenario, is it possible that a sales order of
Material A1 - 3 pieces
Material A2- 5 pieces
Material A3- 2 pieces
will give me a free goods item for 1 piece since the qty sums up to 10.
Can the above requirement be configured in SAP??
Please help with your valuable inputs and suggestions in std SAP.
Regards,
Amit

Hi,
You can do that.....I have not tried but I think it will work
For this you have to create one material group for all such material having similar features and add this material group in all these material master so that all such material will have one single material group
Now,
Go to path SPRO - Sales n Distr. - Basic Functions - Free Goods
1. Add material group field from maintain field catalogue in IMG screen
2. create new Condition table and add this material group field plus any other field that you want like Sales area or customer as key combination
3. Add this condition table in Access seq. NA00 or creeate new access seq. for the combination eg. Material group / Customer
4. Assign this access seq. to condition type NA00 in Maintain condition types
5. Put this condition type NA00 in pricing procedure for free goods
6. Finallay activate this procedure for the combination of Sales Area + Cust. pric. proc + Doc . pric proc
Create condition records for free goods in VBN1
In cond. record give min qty as 10 so that all the materials that have similar material group will be accumulated and give free goods qty as you want
Hope you get some inputs

Free goods process

Dear All,
I refer to the ECC process of issuing free goods w r t a material, using T code VBN1.
Is there any similar process in CRM too?
Kindly enlighten.

Tariq

Hi,
Thanks for your helpful response, it surely gives an indication as to how the process is handled by SAP on the concept part.
However, I would request for added advise on the t code and the objects required for its relevant setting in the middleware. Please enlighten, if possible.

Free goods related requirement

When free goods are determined in sales order, the free good line item data is uneditable. We have a requirement to change the inco terms & tax classification for free goods line item in sales order... Please suggest if any one has worked on such scenario... Or how this can be achieved

Hi,
If the free goods are determined automatically using the condiiton recors from VBN1 ( either inclusive or exclusive) then you cannot change the free good item
May be you have to go with exit modification, if it is really required
If you want to change the item of free goods, you have to manually force using the high level item cateogy

Free goods process from DEPOT

Hi
Here is the scenario like from Depot they want to offer free goods . The goods was sent from Factory to depot and that goods only they want to offer for free
what will be the process and what all i have to create

Hi
In SAP Depot is also treated as plant
So when you want free goods determination to happen thro Depot which means plant it is not possible
If you add the field Plant fn free goods condition technique and maintain condition records the system is not taking that record in the sales order
I have done a extensive research on this but not able to find out why system is not taking the field Plant while free goods determination in sales order
May be Plant is an Valuation Area and hence it is not logical to give a material which is valuated stock directly as free
May be other experts has to answer Why?

How to config Free goods process like rebate

Dear Masters,
I have a problem like this:
Our customer want using free goods by accrual sales volume. If in a period, sales volume can have exp 1000 m3, buyer will get a free goods. But as I know SAP std does not support like this! Is there anyway to solve problem?
Thks a lot for your support!
Regards,
Nguyen Pham,

Hi,
The process is not directly supported in SAP, however there is a suggestion not sure how far it solves your problem.
1. Seperate order type (if the volume of such schemes is high).
2. Using VA05 find the volume of sales for such scheme product.
3. Mainatian free goods procedure for scheme product.
4. In the new order type put in the quantity referenced from VA05, have the free goods determined with TANN for the free goods & for the higher level item make it non deliverable.
By this way you would be capture the quantity for which the free goods have been given away as well as useful for reporting purpose.
There is no direct rebate like set-up possible for free goods without any custom development to my knowledge.

Free goods-more than one material as a free item in sales order

Hi,
We have a requirement for our client in free goods scenario in which the client wants to give more than one material(2or3 etc) as a free item in the sales order.I have already explored the slaes BOM functionality,anyother suggestions other than Sales BOM will be of great help to me.
Thanks

Hi Sam,
Check out my [post|Re: Free goods process requirement] wherein I had the same problem once upon a time.
We tried all possible things, however concluded that through std SAP functionality the same is not possible.
FYI: Free Goods doesnt support BOM, Sub items, Product selection. etc.

Free goods issue in return order

Dear Guru's
Please help to resolve the below issue
We have Free goods process, If customer is ordered 10 goods will give 1 as free good total quantity 11 for this I have maintained the condition record, I have created a sales order for total quantity u2013 100 + 10 free goods = 110 when ever I have entered the main item (line item #10) system automatically proposes the free goods quantity in line item # 20, Out this hundred quantity customer has returned 50 quantity so I have created return order with reference to invoice so in return order both line items have been copied with actual quantity (100 + 10 Free goods). So I changed the main item quantity as 50 (because customer has returned only 50 quantities + free good (for 50 items) 5 = 55)
Here my requirement is when ever I have changed the main item quantity in return order system is not calculating the free good proportionately as per the free goods condition record.(for 10 item 1 item is free)
Ex:- when I have changed the return order main item quantity as 50 still free goods showing as 10 only(in line item #20) (which is for 100 quantity)
What customization is required system should update free goods proportionately as per the free goods condition record in Return order.

Free goods in MM - Purchasing

Hi experts,
My client (X) is a commercial company, they buy material A from Vendor and sell it for Customer.
my case is:
1. X buy 10 A from Vendor and add 1 A more for free ( I don't know which process I can use here?) (require: invoice receipt but no tax, no charge, no payment)
2. X sell 10 A for Customer and 1 A for free (I use Free goods process in SD) (require: billing but no tax, no charge, no ...)
3. Additional, how can I tracking Gas cylinder (in case X buy and sell Gas) between Vendor and Customer?
Plz help!

Hello,
It seems here that procurement of filled cylinders from vendor and selling it to customer.
Following inputs may be helpful;
We create purchase order for procurement from vendor and add the free item with free itme indicator usage in purcahse order.
Now we have stock of filled cylinders in plant stock.
Now once stock is filled we sell the filled cylinders along with free item to customer via normal sales process.
This will reduce the stock.
Now when customer retuirns the empty cylinder via return process which wil come in return stock in MMBE.
Now do the transfer posting and send the stock (empty cylinders) in unrestricted stock.
Create return purchase order and send empty cylinders back to vendor against reference of original purcahse orders.

Free goods on a requisition

I have searched through previous threads for how to handle free goods on a requisition, but all I found was how to handle free goods on a purchase order. We have processes in which we need to be able to add lines to purchase requisitions at a zero dollar value. Our work around up to this point has been to put a .01 as the value on the req, which then gets turned into a .01 on the PO.
This causes problems with our EDI transactions. We would like to have a way to have 0 dollars on the requisition as well, but right now we receive an error. Is it just as simple as changing the error to a warning, or is there another solution?
Thanks!
Tara

Hi,
I think purchase requisition is an internal document , raised by the required people to get a material.Based upon the requirement sourcing plan for procurement by convrting it into a PO.Then for buying it can be free good.If requirement is for a zero value mateial or as low as 0.1 you can very well change the valuation price in the PR tab defaulted .?

How to deal with the issue of craeting Billing for free goods

Dear All,
Now I met with a question for free goods, generally, it's not need to create billing for free goods. But I had used COPA and the profitable document is generated while creating billing. So my question is that how to create billing for free goods. Please give me some suggestions. Thanks a lot.

Dear Robert,
The following steps you can do for the Free Goods(samples).
1.Define new pricing procedure for Free goods through copying the existing procedure.T.Code V/08
2.If you don't want taxes remove the Sales tax related condition types.T.CodeV/08
3.Add R100 -100% Discount Condition type to make total value as "Zero" place R100 condition type after the total value.T.CodeV/08
4.Define new sales document type and billing type for the Free Goods process.T.codes VOV8 & VOFA
5.Assign document pricing procedure as C-Free goods for those sales document tyep and billing type.
T.codes VOV8 & VOFA
6.Define account key seperately for Free Goods and assign that account key to the pricing condition tyep and R100 condition type.
7.Determine the Free goods pricing procedure with the combination of sales areaDocument pricing procedure(i.e C-Free Goods)Customer pricing procedure.T.code OVKK
8.Do the G/L account assignment for that new account key(Single G/L account for price and R100-100% discount).T.Code VKOA
9.Maintain condition record for the R100 condition type as 100% with sales document type as one of the key combination.T.code VK11
Now when you create Free Goods order system will pick the Free goods pricing procedure(Value with zero)with refernce to that order you can create delivery then do the free goods billing ,and release to accounting with two postings one is credit-price second one is debit-100% dicount.
I hope this will help you,
Regards,
Murali.

Free Goods and Excise

Hi Friends,
I have a scenario as
My client gives some free goods as free items in order. But these free items are excisable....so how do configure this scenario.
Where for customer it is free goods, but for company point of view, company has to pay the excise duty to authorities.
Kindly guide on the same.
Thanks in advance
Shailesh

Dear Shailesh,
You can do like this,
1.You can define different pricing procedure for the FREE goods.(T.code V/08)
->In the Free goods pricing procedure you maintain Excise related condition types(T.code V/06)
-->You maintain R100 condition type for 100% discount after the total value.(T.code V/08).
-->Maintain seperate Account key for R100-Condition type, also assign same account key to the Price condition type (in Free goods pricing procedure only)
Maintain same account key for the Price condition type and R100 - condition type.(T.code V/08)
2.You define Different sales document type for FREE goods processing. (T.code VOV8)
-->You assign document pricing procedure C-Free of charge to this sales document.(T.code VOV8)
3.You determine the Free goods pricing procedure in OVKK transaction for this combination.
Sales areaFree goods Document pricing procedure(i.e C)Customer pricing procedure--->free goods pricing procedure.
4.When you do the Free goods process customer account should not get effet to avoid this ,you ask FI people to create seperate G/L account to post the Free Goods process values.
In VKOA transaction you assign free goods G/L account for R100 -->Condition type account key with other key fields(same G/L account For sales revenue and 100% discount).
Maintain the Condition record for R100 condition type with 100% in VK11 transaction
Now when you create Free goods sales order system will pick the Free Goods pricing procedure in that pricing Excise values and Price will come but Total value will zero due to 100% discount.
When you release to accounting
Excise values will posted to the respective G/L accounts.
Price and 100% discount will posted to the respective Free goods G/L account.
Note:- Make sure that you have done the CIN configuration settings regarding Excise duty.
I hope this will help you,

Murali.

Free goods issue from vendor consignmemtn stock

Hai Friends,
I am doing here delivery thru vendor consignment stock. When i do the delivery with 601 k movement type. for that quantity vendor liability will be booked thru MRKO Transaction. this process is going smoothly. But i got problem in Free goods processing, to narrate in detail.
in sales order for a material free goods (inclusive 8+2), in sales order itself the material will be divided into 2 line items with quantity 8 & 2
When i do delivery the vendor liability has to be booked for the quantity 8 and not for quantity 2.
ur suggestion are welcome, early responses sure get reward points.
Thanks

Hi
If you donot want the system to generate the second line item for the qhuantity 2 and the entire quantity 10 is to be displayed in one line item (8 priced and 2 free)......
goto VBN2 - select the free goods condition record you have created and at the right side colum (not sure of the column name) select the value - FREE GOODS INCLUSIVE Without Line Item Generation.
Now if you create a sales order, it will not create the second line item. Here it uses the condition type NRAB instead of R100 for determining the free goods.
Thanks,
Ravi

Configuring requirement : ordered item to absorb cost of free goods

Hello Friends,
I need to configure this in SAP SD.
The main item should accumulate the cost of the free goods.
I have set the cumulative indicator and deactivated pring for this item.
Do i still need to configure the stock value for the free goods as cost free item? Or is this step only applicable for
another scenario, like,
If I were to activate Pricing such that free goods is displayed as subitem and VPRS configured as cost and discount set to 100%
1. Set Item category to TANN using FREE usage AND
2. use condition type RL00 with requirement 55.
3. use pricing type B.
regards
Ravi
