Free of charge Order Process/ Release Delivery block

hi all,
i am new to Workflow.
i have a issue to be done in wrokflow.
The work flow has to be incorporated with Free of Charge order process. The work flow process will allow a delivery block / credit block to be released only based on authorized user.
Can any one guide me in doing this.
Waiting for your response.
thanks in advance.
Suki

Hii Suki...
As I am still not clear with ur requirement, so provide these details...
1) When should ur workflow trigger..?
2) Do u want the credit/delivery block to be released by a particular person??
For (1), U should look for an appropiate Business Object related to ur scenario, which u can find in SWO2 (BOR) and thus by using a particular event of ur BO, u can trigger ur WF.
For (2), U should assign that particular user as the Agent for the step so that he only receives the work-item in his Inbox and thus process it.
Hope this might help you.......
Plz rewards points.......
Regards,
Ashish

COPA document for free of charge orders

Friends,
We are using free of charge orders (ZFD) with Item category ZKLN. I understand COGS will be updated during delivery and no accounting is posted during billing. Also I thought no COPA document is generated but in our case it is generating a COPA document posting COGS. Client doesn't want this. Can you guide me where this setting is to make sure no COPA document is generated for free of charge orders.
Thanks in advance

I agree with Ajay that this is not really a wise thing to do but, as it happens, my current client asked me to do the same thing recently.
I suggested to them that we keep the postings to CO-PA, but exclude them from reports by using the Item category as a report selection criteria (could even be hard-coded into the selection criteria so the user is unaware of it). That way you don't lose the data and it can still be reported if anyone ever requires it.
Unfortunately, they didn't accept my suggestion so I had to exclude the CoGS postings from CO-PA. I did this by using the valuation enhancement COPA0002 (EXIT_SAPLKEAB_001). The code in the exit just says that where the Item category is for a free sale (ZTANN in our case), set all value fields to zero.
An alternative, if you can have a unique billing type for these "sales", would be to use the "Reset Value Fields" settings in config (KE4W). In that case, you wouldn't need to use the exit.
Hope that helps.

Dear All,
Our customer wants to include cost center and a G/L account in the sales order while creating Free of Charge orders.

Please do explain.

Mullairaja

HI everyone!
I'm having the same problem. I've done all that I know about Incompletion log to cost center to be mandatory and one of procedure is relating in the changes idea.
In my case when I'm trying to sales order free of charge process and checking Incompletion Log is not bringing cost center field as mandatory to be fill up.
It seams the check is being done by Item, but cost center field it doesn't have in the any item table VBKD e VBAK just profit center.
The SAP version in my client is 4.6c.
I'd like to know if someone got to fix cost center field in sales order free of charge as mandatory only with configuration? And if Yes. How?
Because, I think the only way to achieve that is through user-exit.
Thanks for your attention!

How to put order in a delivery block ? on basis of shipto and order reason

Hi can any one tell if there is any way duirng the order creation (Va01) we can read the shipto no and order reason code to put the orders on a delivery block ? the idea is to do this only for certain shipto which have a soecial order reason.
we are looking for solution via configuration first and if that is not possible then via some order header level user exit. in case of user exit we can read the special shipto number from a custom table....
if this is not possible to use ship to number then we can use the soldto numbers along with the special order reason code.
so if the order is having a shipto sold =xxxx and order reason code is zzzz then put the order on a delivery block....
once the delivery block needs to be lifted we do not want to hit this logic in the order changed mode( va02)
look forward to hear from the experts any solutions....or suggestions....thanks in advance

Raj,
The issue here is the while creating the order the system needs to validat two things 'sold-to-party and order reason'.
I am still not sure whther this can be achieved through non ABAP way. check for some exits, if available.

Updating the Item category in a Free of Charge order

Hi all,
I am currently working in a requirment on Free of Charge orders.
Existing scenrio is : In Free of Charge orders, if there is a BOM material is associated in the sub item, then the particular product's item category is not editable, so we can't alter it manually. SAP Note : 796926 says there are restrictions for usage of free of charge transaction types when the sub item involved is BOM.
Requirement: To make this item category editable in this scenario.
So we are currently looking for an option to make an enhancement to SAP standard program for this. I tried to debug standard modules from the point where we open an order. But not able to find any significant place which deals with disabling this item category.
Any suggestions on the SAP CRM program which deals with this will be very helpful. Thanks in advance.

hi
Once the BOM is created it is not possible to change the item category,either you have to delete the material and re-enter the material with different item category

Is it possible to create invoice for Free of Charge order

Dear All,
Is it required to create a Billing document for an Free of charge order as far as Indian scenario is concerned.
We are not charging any value to the customer for Free of Charge. Free of Charge order value will be Zero only.
In this case, is it required to abide with invoice while sending the materials to the customer.
Regards,
Mullairaja

Dear Reazuddin,
But in FOC orders value will be zero.
PR00 value will be compensated with R100 condition type.
But Excise condition type will be calculated on Basic price.
When the basic price value, how the system calculates the Excise condition type values.
Could you please clarify?

Credit Management - In delivery process released document blocked

Hello SD Experts,
This is regarding credit management. we have configured Delivery level credit check.
As per the settings System block the delivery and FI credit representative release the blocked delivery documents.
Logistics processing the delivery , Picking and Packing with out problem.
While processing the shipping activity with combined delivery VT01n - when checking Shipment started tab its automatically going back to credit block.
I have configured in the Risk Category under Released documents are still unchecked as
Deviation -- Blank
Number of Days as 15
My requirement is once released from delivery no need to do credit check again - with any deivation and Number of days limit also
Please help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks in Advance
Jaffar

Hi Jaffar,
As per your explanation this is happening because of Number of Days as 15
This specifies the number of days after which a changed document must be re-checked for credit.
This function is used for checking documents that have already been released by a credit representative, but that have
subsequently been changed. The system does NOT carry out another credit check if the following conditions are met:
The value of the changed order is not greater than the value already approved for credit (inclusive of the deviation factor),
AND
The current date is not greater than the original release date plus the number of days specified here.
As per this there might be any changes in released document or changes in delivery dates,due to this reason system
blocking it again,try to reduce the number of days from 15 to 5 or as per your convenience and check.
Regards
Ram

Instead of copy pasting from standard, it would have been better had you advised the member to press F1 against that field (Number of days). Please dont ever try to copy paste from other source which is strictly prohibited

Releasing Delivery block in Sales Order

Dear All,
Here is a requirement where Sales order is first created with delivery block for reason Credit check and to be released only by other user after checking the payment received.
Can we assign authorisation at field level
Can anybody suggest suitable solution
Sriram

Dear all
First of all Thank you very much for the replies
Actually there is no credit management .. Here the situation is My client is the machine manufacturer who sells Industry Machineries. Usual Practice is to collect advance of 30-40% along with Order and balance before Delivery. Sales Executives will follow customer for advance and Balance payments. Once Received Sales head takes the decision of dispatching the machine. Sometimes he decides for the customer who has pending payments also. hence I mentioned Sales head to release. Configuring Credit limit and automatic checking may not be suitable for this Customer. I am thinking of giving authorisation of VA02 only to Sales Head so that he simply changes the delivery block tab and save the order.
I am configuring like this I will update after testing

Free of charge item processing - France business requirement

Hi,
For free of charge sales, the net value of an item is made to zero using free item category in the sales order and the billing with zero value is released to accounting.
One of the requirements for France is for Free of charge items, though the value of the product is zero, the relevant tax codes needs to be transmitted from SD to FI so that the tax value(zero) + tax code details will be available in the VAT reporting.
It looks the OSS notes 34526 - Delivery free of charge and value-added tax provides recommendation to resolve the above requirements. Have anyone implemented the solution based on this OSS note or used any other approach? The condition type Z002 provided as example in the note, reducing value of the net value instead of negating tax value.
Appreciate any feedback on this.
Regards,

Thanks for responding. Below are my responses,
How ( with which tables and fields ) you are developing VAT report in FI?.Why I am asking is,with tax code only we can track the tax amount in FI level.If the tax code related data is zero then how and what based on can we get that data in FI level to develop a report?.
I consulted the same with FI colleagues and per their response, an entry has to be made in the BSET table in order for the VAT report to populate the relevant tax code and values. As mentioned in the caption of the thread, it is for our French business requirement. Our business users indicated that when a product is sent as delivery free of charge, they wanted to show the details in VAT reporting (I am not an VAT expert, and not an expert with French laws). We have added tax codes for relevant taxes, including zero tax and followed the recommendation provided in the OSS note that I have mentioned earlier.
Why dont you want to develop a VAT report in SD module ?.Do you have any issues over there ( in SD ) ?
Our requirement is NOT to develop the VAT from SD module, however FI folks asked to pass the tax code/tax value from SD transactions (billing document to FI). Hence I raised this thread in SD area to see whether anyone has accomplished a solution for this similar requirements.
Thanks,

Copa document for free of charge orders not relevant for billing

Hi all,
when we create the shipment costs of the samples goods the systems give us this error: ME083 "Entre Profit. segment".
The mistake is related to the missing profitability segment in the sales order of samples goods there are not valid for the billing.
How can we generate a profitability segment for free of charge sales orders not relevant for the billings?
The Item Category is not relevant for the billing and we can't modify it.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards.
Matteo

Hi Sanil,
unfortunatly we can't create the billing. Due to fiscal requirements only sales orders and delivery exist.
We can't generate an invoice even with zero value.
The SD item category is not relevant for billing, so in the sales order no profitability segment is generated.
This is the standard functionalty of SAP, but we need to generate a profitability segment in the sales order because the shipment cost need it (transportation module of SAP).
All the other SD flow (sales orders with invoices) run already well.
Thanks
Matteo

Production Order creation Despite Delivery Block on Sales Order

Hi All
I have created a Z1-Delivery Block and assigned the block to a Sales order type.
Now during the creation of the Sales order the Delivery block is assigned immediately the system creates a planned order but no production order.However the business would still like the production order to be created.
Is there a SAP standard way to allow this to happen or would I need to enhance via a USER EXIT.
Thanks in Advance for your assistance.
KA

I'm not an expert, but I don't think delivery block actually has any influence on the production order. We have tried on purpose to use a delivery block to prevent the PO creation/release and had to develop a user exit for this purpose. The way it works in our system - planned order has a conversion indicator. Some standard program runs in background and converts the planned orders with this indicator into the production orders. If indicator is not set then PO is not created.
Delivery block just prevents delivery from PGI, I don't think it even prevents the delivery creation (much to my surprise).

Free of Charge order: COGS (VPRS) is not transferred to CO-PA

Dear SD gurus
I have FOC order and I’d like to transfer its cost to CO-PA.
Initially, only delivery process exist, but I noticed that without
billing, data is not transferred to CO-PA.
So, we added billing process with no accounting doc.
But, condition type VPRS seems to be NOT transferred to CO-PA.
Is there any solution?

Credit Release thru VKM3 remove the schedule line delivery block ...

HI Gurus,
I have created the sales order with the delivery block at the schedule line. i have save the order . The order goes to the credit block . So when i release credit block with the help of VKM3 then system also removes the schedule line level block.
This is not std behaviour . Can any one come across such scenario ?
Details: I have removed the routine 101 in the OVB8 so that if order goes to credit block still order will have the confirm qty.
Also in the OVAK order type is mark D for automatic credit check.
Thanks in advance

Hi ,
I have checked the sales order thru the program but we are not using any user exit for the same.
Now i have found that if the qty is confirm on the first date i mean on the date given then system does not remove the block & if the ATP check suggest the diff date so there are two schedule line in this case block get removed ..
May be this is like after credit removes system must be running the ATP check again ..
Please help
