Field name of free item in ME21N

Hi All,
I have a small issue hear in ME21N I wan the table and the field which will be updated when the we check the check box for free item in the line items, I tried to find that using CDHDR, CDPOS, using ST05 and other methods but I was unable to do that can any of u please help me in finding that field along with table mane which will be updated and to give further information the screen field name is UMSON
Regards,
Antony

Hello Antony,
The 'Free Item' indicator is only used to facilitate the switching off of the 'Inv.Receipt' flag.
The flag UMSON is not contained in any table, only in structures.
But there is a correlation between the flag UMSON and the field EKPO-REPOS. So if you flag field EKPO-REPOS (an invoice is expected) the flag UMSON will be cleared and the other way around.
For further information about this flag: You will not be able to enter any conditions in your purchase order item (not even the delivery costs) once the flag for 'Free item' has been set.
In case the 'Inv.Receipt' flag is unticked, the system will not allow you to maintain any conditions in the purchase order, not even the delivery costs. In ME21N you can see that even the condition tab disappears as soon as you set the 'Free item' indicator or as soon as you de-select the 'Inv.Receipt' flag.
Whenever the 'Inv.Receipt' flag is not set, we are indicating to the system that all the goods are to be delivered free of charge. In other words, there can be no delivery costs associated with the PO. Also, no delivery costs are allowed without an invoice receipt.
I hope this helps.
Esther.

BADI to uncheck free item indicator (field UMSON) in PO through ME21N)

Hi All,
I have a requirement to remove the UMSON ( free item ") indicator while creating a PO using ME21N transaction based on the input from user. If material starts with 'P' and it is a standard order, then this field should be unchecked for that particular item. I am implementing the BADI ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST and method CHECK. However, I find that though the PO is held and not saved, the value of UMSON field is not changed.
This is the code.
DATA:   lt_mepoitem   TYPE purchase_order_items,
        ls_mepoitem   TYPE purchase_order_item,
        ls_mepoheader TYPE mepoheader,
        ls_head       TYPE REF TO if_purchase_order_mm,
        ls_item       TYPE mepoitem,
        ls_local      TYPE ttyp_fieldselection_mm,
        ls_inval      TYPE REF TO if_purchase_order_item_mm,
        l_error       TYPE c.
INCLUDE mm_messages_mac. "useful macros for message handling
ls_mepoheader = im_header->get_data( ).
lt_mepoitem = im_header->get_items( ).
IF ls_mepoheader-bsart = 'NB' .
    LOOP AT lt_mepoitem INTO ls_mepoitem.
      ls_item = ls_mepoitem-item->get_data( ).
      IF ls_item-matnr(1) = 'P' AND ls_item-umson IS NOT INITIAL .
        ls_item-umson = space.
        l_error = 'X'.
        CALL METHOD ls_mepoitem-item->set_data
          EXPORTING
            im_data = ls_item.
      ENDIF.
    ENDLOOP.
    IF l_error = 'X'.
      ch_failed = 'X'.
      mmpur_message_forced 'E' 'ME' '303' text-001 '' '' ''.
    ENDIF.
ENDIF.
Can anyone tell me what I am missing or where this can be implemented?
Thanks

hi,
With Error it won' t allow you to save PO.
What i would suggest is that
either you give message that indicator need to checked or unchecked as per condition. and let user change is manually and
you check it in BADI and then save it .
or you change free item check as per your requirement in BADi and give a information message that this item is to be checked for free goods or need to be unchecked .

Free items in automatically created POs

Hello gurus,
we would like to create POs automatically using MRP. The problem is that some of the materials are always free goods.
So if I created the PO manually, i would tick the free item checkbox. Can this be done automatically?
Thanks
Alicia

Hi,
yes , it is possible to get the free goods indicator automatically,
ask your ABAPer to develop a program to get the indicator automatically wrt to the document type,
related check box field is " UMSON " in the table EKPO,
here is the code, which may be helpful to you,
DATA: WA_EKPO TYPE BEKPO.
*TABLES ekko.
Making Free Item Checkbox Mandatory for IMF Doc. Type
IF SY-TCODE EQ 'ME21N'.
IF I_CEKKO-BSART EQ 'IMF'.
READ TABLE IT_BEKPO INTO WA_EKPO WITH KEY UMSON = ' '
EBELN = ' '.
IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
MESSAGE E033(ZMEG) WITH WA_EKPO-EBELP.
ENDIF.
ELSEIF I_CEKKO-BSART EQ 'IM'.
READ TABLE IT_BEKPO INTO WA_EKPO WITH KEY UMSON = 'X'
EBELN = ' '.
IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
MESSAGE E034(ZMEG) WITH WA_EKPO-EBELP.
ENDIF.
ENDIF.
ENDIF.

Free Items in Import Purchase Order

Hi All,
How to handle a FOC materials ( No payment to Vendor) in Import PO.
I have an Import Purchase order (FOC items) with all the applicable Duties and i have to pay only the Duties to the Customs and not to Vendor.
How to handle this scenario in SAP????
Regards,
Kumar Rayudu

Dear Kumar,
Free of Cost (FOC) materials can be handled in two ways;
(a) Through PO using Free Items clicking ICON in transaction code ME21N
(b) Through manitaining condition records using transaction code MBN1
Using this, materials can receive free of goods...that means....you can make goods receipt....but not valuated....i mean.....no liability will create.
Hope this information will be useful.

Hi,
Go to MBN1 transaction and select ur key combination and give the vendor, material and plant. Wether the material is inclusive or exclusive free. U should maintain the grant discount in kind in vendor purchasing data. And also u should maintain (2 Eligible for discount in kind only for purchasing) in the material master purchasing view. Hope this will help u.

PO Free Items inquiry

Hello Experts,
In transaction OMET, we can force buyers to create Purchase Order with ref. to a Pur. Req., Quotation or Pur. Ord.
then we assign the parameter 'EFB' in transaction SU01. How about for 'Free Item', is there any way we can process the line items that are Free without reference to a PR if the user has 'EFB' ?
Thank you.

Hi,

Hello Padmasri,
Thank you for your quick response.
We are just using ME21N for PO creation, then if the user creates a Free item PO w/o ref.
error message 'You have no authorization to create without reference to another document' as it is because of the 'EFB' in user parameter.
We are just thinking if this authorization can be bypass or simply remove the 'EFB' in user paremeter and create a custom authorization using a BADI.
Thanks!

Free item Indicator in PR (ME51N)

Free Item check box not appearing in PR- item overiview (ME51N).
How can I get that in PR item overview screen????

Hello Atul,
PR is an internal document that User/Department gives to Purchase department for giving details about the requirement that is why SAP doesn't provide free indicator in this transaction me51n.
As PO is an external document and we need to provide the price for making a PO, so that is why SAP provides field in me21n from marking free indicators.
As pricing available in PO is not available in Me51n in the same way free indicator is not availble.

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.

Value-Basis Free Goods in ME21N

In PO creation, is it possible for free goods to be on value-basis rather than quantity-basis?
For example: If I buy A 1000USD, I'll get one B for free.
Cheers,
VT

Hi VT,
One more option....
Create PO with two line item,one line item for A and second line item for B.
To get the item B free, you have to select the check box of free item in the second line item.
if you will scroll right in PO line item you will get the check box of free item.

Free Item in PO

Hi all,
I have a requirement to fetch all the line items in PO that are checked as FREE, in an ALV report. I am unable to find the Free item field in any of the tables. Could you please help me in getting that field.
Regards
Hemanth

Hi,
I am not sure if the free item field is available in the PO tables. It is determined dynamically at runtime, however the below function module can help you to check whether the line item is marked free or not.
i hope this will be useful.
Free item determination
CLEAR : ebeln.
MOVE it_output-ebeln TO ebeln.
CALL FUNCTION 'ME_PO_CHANGE'
EXPORTING
purchaseorder = ebeln
TABLES
return = return

READ TABLE poitem WITH KEY po_item = it_output-ebelp.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
IF poitem-free_item = 'X' AND it_ekpo-elikz = 'X'.
CONTINUE.
ELSEIF poitem-free_item = 'X' AND it_ekpo-elikz = 'X'
AND it_ekpo-wepos = 'X'.

Free item reference document number not populated in MIGO item screen

Hi
I have a requirement where in I would need to populate the reference document number in the MIGO item when I am cancelling a goods receipt in case of free items.
In standard SAP system we know that it would only be populated when GRbased IV is ticked in PO but in free item PO this is not ticked . So was enquiring if any body knows how we could populate the reference document number at GR cancellation in MIGO item level for free items .

Hi,
If you mean the field MSEG-SMBLN, then it is always populated at cancellation, no matter the GR-based IV flag.
