Free goods & SIS

Hi SAPers,
Are there any standard report where I can see the free goods sent to our customers?
best regards
thanks in advance
-Italo

There is no standard info structure for free goods.
Also free goods may be configured differently and the definition itself may differ significantly from company to company. For example, sometimes the item is given free of charge by using a pricing condition. Such items most likely can't be included in SIS or queries and would require a custom ABAP report.
If you are using a particular line type for the free goods, you should be able to create either your own info structure or a query for reporting.

Promotion: points collection and free goods

Dear experts,
our Sales Dept. is going to propose special promotions based on points
collection. For example, each time a customer orders 100 PCS he is
awarded with 1 point.
At the end of the promotion validity period, he gets the right to
receive a free merchandise, whose value depends on the total number of
collected points.
It is something very similar to promotions used by airline (points per
mile) and oil companies (points per liter).
Pointing out that the problem is not the management of free goods, but
just the accumulation of points, anyway we were not able to find a
suitable standard solution in SAP up to now (free goods determination
seems not useful, as we do not want generation of a new item nor a
discount; standard pricing results always in a currency amount, while
we need just "points").
How would you solve this issue?
Thank you in advance,
-Luca-

Hi,
I doubt whether this is possible using standard SAP.
If the free merchandise is outside the company's product range - all you can do is just generate a report for each customer using SIS for the campaign period, to calculate the total qty the customer has purchased. You can calculate the reward points from this to determine the free merchandise.
I do not see any reason why this needs to be tracked within orders/billing document as this expense would anyway be accounted under the marketing budgets, if accounting was your concern.
May be if you can explain the exact need, we can think of alternatives,
Thanks,
Siva

Hi Yasar,
You need to create a new routine for calculate type.
Do as below:
1. Go to VOFM>Formulas>calc.rule Rebate InKd to create a new routine for calculate type. for example 601.
2. add the following code in this routine 601 and then save.
USING L_FRM STRUCTURE KONDN_FRM.
DATA: VORKOMMA LIKE KONDN-KNRMM,
NACHKOMMA LIKE KONDN-KNRMM.
L_FRM-NRMENGE = 0.
L_FRM-NRRUND = 0.
L_FRM-NRMENGE = ( L_FRM-MGLME / L_FRM-KNRNM * L_FRM-KNRZM ).
business rounding
VORKOMMA = FLOOR( L_FRM-NRMENGE ).
L_FRM-NRRUND = L_FRM-NRMENGE - VORKOMMA.
L_FRM-NRMENGE = VORKOMMA.
3. Select routine 601 in field "Calc.Rule" when you create free goods condition record.
Hope it helps.

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

Posting the Expenses of Free Goods

All SD Gurus
I have some doubt in SD-Module.
We have Trading Business, in that the Trade offers ie 100+10 Like that.... is presently posting in VPRS - Cogs (During PGI) only. But finance wants to post the values of trade offers (10 pcs) to Marketting expenses (During Bill Release to Finance), Presently during Bill release these trade offers are not considered for pricing.
According to my Current setting Free Goods Item Category is marked as Statistically. So it not posting my PR00 Conditions in Accounts.
Any help on this subject will be highly appriciated.
Thanks in Advance
Regards
Vishal

Thanks, I have maintained all setting for Free goods. System is not posting any values @ time of Invoice in accounts as my free goods Item category is statistical. If I remove this setting then I have to maintain the PR00 - Base Condition (Mandaotry) which will post amount in Sales Domestic G/L Account.
Any alternative solution?

Vishal

The codition type of free goods lost.

We are facing a problem about the codition type of free goods.
Our business flow is:
1:customer order 100 DR material A from CRM.he entered the requited number in item 1.
2:we transferred the order into r/3 system.and we define the free goods in r/3.the
policy is that we give customer 1 dr free of charge when they buy 10 dr.
3:when this order has been transferred into r/3,the system automatically add a line
with 1 DR free of charge.
4:in normal,in item 2,it will contain a condition type 'PR01' and 'NA00'.the 'PR01'
is the price and the 'NA00' is the 100% discount.
Nut Now the condition type 'PR01' and 'NA00' in item 2 lost.

ANYONE KNOW THE REASON?

Divide discount of free goods between several items (SO)

Hi gurus,
I need to split the cost of the free good between the items generating it, i.e. if the customer buy 5pcs of Mat A and 4pcs of Mat B he gets 1pcs of Mat C for free. He will only see the original price for the "main" items and zero for the free good but intenally the profit margin of the "main" materials should be deducted with the cost of the free good and the free good should have full profit margin as if it was sold for full price.
I'm aware that this is not standard SAP functionality and that I probably need to change a user exit in program MV45AFZZ.
Please help me with this problem! Any advice or tips are highly appreciated.
Best regards,
Mia

Is it possible to solve this problem by modifying a user exit? I was considering creating a new pricing condition which should be inflicted between the net value and profit margin by the user exit so that the customer only sees the original values for the main materials but the profit margins are reduced with the price of the free goods directly in the order. Is this doable?

PO Print of Free Goods

Vendor has send free goods but excise duty and freight, etc we have to pay.
If I put free item tick in the PO, the condition tab disappears. I cannot enter the basic price and any other condition in the PO. therefore tax and other conditions cannot be calculated.
In the PO Print we have to print the excise duties and other conditions. Currently it is not coming in PO print.
How we can print the excise duties and other conditions in PO for the free goods.?
What I have to tell to ABAPER.

Hi,
In case of free goods provided by vendor, create a free PO but need not to take the printout of same and sending it to vendor because in case of free supply of materials (for e.g. samples), vendor doesn't seek any PO document. We create free PO, its for system adjustment.
Just check this with your client, if its really needed then ask your client to maintain Pricing details in Item Text and try to print the same as Remarks in PO Printout, this requires ABAP effort.
And during GR against PO, enter Excise Base Amount, Excise Duty, Ed Cess and SECess manually and post it.

Tax Calculation of free goods

Hi
We have a requirement where the client wants only VAT to be posted in GL accounts and not the price.For this I tried free goods condition type R100 with AltCBV 28.But the VAT value is also coming zero. I want the VAT to be calculated on Pricing condition and then give 100% discount.
Apart from this I also tried to make pricing condition statistical and calculate VAT on it but then also system gives zero value for VAT.
Also wondering if the scenario can be addressed with Free of Change Dellivery.

Hi
Normally in scenario where you are dealing with samples , there are cases you have to charge only TAXES / EXCISE part.
Here my SUGGESTION is you can handle this through a simple sales order process, where you have to configure a new pricing procedure.
1. Create a new document type to handle samples.
2. Create a New pricing procedure where you can keep the basic price condtion as Statistical and rest all same as wht is is there your main pricing procedure. Just juggle with the TO-FROM to capture the TAX part in the total.
3. Doc pricing procedure will help you to pick the new Pricing procedure
4. Now Process this as a normal sales order
5. This new document type will help you to have a proper reporting.
The only constraint here is USER has to punch a fresh order seperately for such scenario. He cannot give a free good in the same sales order which is used as standard.
The other way is you can configure a FREE GOOD Determination procedure as suggested where you need to then have your Single pricing procedure accomodating the same scenario.
Thanks

Pricing procedure of free goods

Could anyone please tell me the effect of pricing procedure in free godds?And what is the difference between pricing procedure in free goods(IMG->Sales and Distribution->Basic Funcions->Free Goods) and pricing procedure in pricing(IMG->Sales and Distribution->Basic Funcions->Pricing)

Hi Wei Zhang,
When there are more than 2 materials say material A which is of some price, and material B which is Free of cost, then the item category will be different for those. TAN for Mat A and TANN for materail B.
Pricing is depends upon the customer pricing procedure and document pricing procedure along with the Sales Area.
When there are free Goods, Again yu have two conditions
1. Give 100 % discount on free goods.
2. Or charge 0 value for that.
This pricing procedure you can do in free goods priocing procedure.
Hope this will help.
Thanks,
Raja

Cost(vprs) of free goods with batch managment

Dear Gurus,
I have a problem ahout free goods with batch management.
Cost(VPRS) is not accumulated in billing(free goods is not relevant for billing).
My configurations are shown as below:
Ordered goods (and batch) item category :zta1(copied from tan)
Free goods (and batch) item category :zann (copied from tann) pricing:B ;not relevant for billing;dermination cost:X
copy control(from delivery to billing):
ztan: accumulation cost :X
If I use the material without batch management,Cost of free goods(without batch) is accumulated to main item(ordered goods).
So, what can I do?
Thanks and Best Regards,
Lykin Kan

Hi,
These notes are useful:
SAP Note 1365939 - VPRS logic and Customizing settings in SD
SAP Note 547570 - FAQ: VPRS in pricing
If you have the problem in the transfer from SD conditions to CO-PA, check if you transfer only invoices to COPA, if you don't invoice the deliveries of free goods, then you don't transfer this 'sales' or costs of 'gifts' to COPA. You can check the customizing of COPA in tcode ORKE (IMG for COPA). SAP Note 74486 - INFO: Overview of consulting notes for CO-PA is a good summary about this issue.
I hope this helps you
Regards,
Eduardo
PD: I forgot SAP Note Number 33968 SD/CO-PA: Characteristics from sales doc tables

Issue of Free Goods

Dear All
I have some is my current assignment-Customer is buying some material say "A" want "B,C" as exclusive free goods
is it possible to give two free at a time in same order ?
I only know one exlusive free good can be give to one material with combination of customer ( Customer/Material)
Looking for some inputs regarding the issue.
Can you plz suggest me if there is any possiblities for BOM?
Many Thanks
Rakesh Naveen

Dear Rakesh,
Be informed that free goods is not currently supported in combination with material structures (e.g. product selection,
bills of material, variants with BOM explosion), see note 796926.
Determination of free goods is performed in include FV45PF0N_NATRAB_SELECTION and the check is hardcoded. You will have to modify the program to get that functionality, but be carfull that any modification won't be supported by SAP, see note 170183.
I hope it can help you.

Dear All Team Member
I have reached to one conclusion so far that if we insert one more option in Delivery control in condition record of Free Goods in VBN1 as delivery only takes place if main item=sub items,then our purpus will be resolved.
Can you plz check out and provide me some suggestion how WE will resolve this issue?
Many Thanks
