Handling of free goods in PO
Dear ALL,
Our vendor has agreed that he will give us one drum of oil free if we buy 100 drums from him.
how can we bifurcate this in the system that 100 drums we have purchased and one is as a free good.
1) what we have to do when raising a PO ?
shall we make PO with 101 drums and select <i><b>FREE indicator</b></i> in PO.In this case all 101 drums will become as free goods.
2) or if we raise a PO for 100 drums without selecting free goods indicator how shall we handle at the time of GR of 101 drums. in this case GR of 101 drums will be treated by system as overdelivery.
3)how can we maintain free goods information in PIR( Purchase info records)
Request to suggest steps in dealing with this scenario.
regards
ajay
Hi Ajay,
One way is create 2 line items in PO, one line item with 100 no's and 2nd line item with 1 number which should be checked with free goods.
At the time of GR do the GR for both the line items.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Viswanath

Hi Expers,
Greetings to all!!!
I wished to ask a question:
I have PO with 10 line items. and during Goods receipt the vendor has given 1 free good as promo. I wanted to capture this. According to my knowledge I need to do GR with ref to PO and need to enter 10 items and need to do a separate GR for the free good with movement type 511. but with this i will not be able to pull a report that will tell which vendor had given us the free good and against which PO.
So just wanted ask if there is any other way of handling the free goods?
Thanking you in advance.
Regards,
UKHi,
Option1: If batch management is active then you can use your batch number (external) ex: FREEGOODS to identify the free of charge items.
Option2: You can use MB51 and free of charge movement type from layout you can selct PO and you will know against which PO what are the free goods
Option3: Keep a seperate storage location for free items and do GRN there

Free Goods Automatically triggered in PO
Dear all SAP experts,
I want to handle the free goods in PO. First, I have set the exclusive free goods through MBN1 for specified vendor & material and its normal gross price condition.
Just say BUY every 10 pc of Material A can get 1 pc of material B. And the min. purchasing qty for material A is 10 pc.
However, during PO creation, there is no new item(material B) pop up when I input the material A in 10 pc. ? WHY?
Do I miss some configuration steps??
Do I need to create a new condition type NR00 and assign it to calculation schema RM0002? I have tried but it is not working...
Thanks in advance for any reply.Hello Boris,
You can achieve this with Inforeord maintainence (ME12).
Follow the steps:
- Go to ME12
- Give the Vendor and material combination'
- Go for condition data
- Select the validity range
- Click on "Gift box" icon, and execute the transaction
- it will give you the list where you can maintain the base material and the free goods material number in "Free goods" column
Hope this helps.

Handling Type in Free Goods Item (IS-OIL)
Hello,
Could anyone give me a suggestion how to enable Handling Type field (VBAP-OIHANTYP) for free goods line item (Item Cat TANN) in Sales Order?
Currently this field was disable and not allow to enter any value.
Thank youHi,
Try to do as mentioned below.
step by step process for free goods.
1. need to create the free goods condition(condition tables/access seq and types) and pricing procedure and then assign the same to sales area, doc. Priccing proce and cust pri. Procde.
2.you need to maintain the condition records( tcode: VBN1) and maitain the data as mentioned
above(check Notes 2 sheet)
3. if you don't want the free goods item to be created, then you need to add the NRAB condition type to the pricing procedure(document pricing procedure not Free goods pricing procedure) and need to maintain the condition record for this
condition in VK11.
once all this is done, you can see free goods price reduced in the net price and if additional item is added, then you will the quantity (as per condition record) for that free good.
Thanks,

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

Hi
These are scenario for Beverage business- mostly they have complicated promotion on free gifts which I think SAP ERP SD cannot cover it. I also check Promotion in retail and found out, if it's discount - it can handled but for free goods - there is similar to ERP Sales. If anyone can take a look at the below case and share with me whether IS-Retail can handle it or any idea how to handle it as now I can only think of custom development.
This is pretty much general scenario in Thailand, not only beverage but wholesales & distribution but I don't think SAP ERP can handle it smoothly.
1. Buy soda water size 10 oz regardless of soda taste (coke, orange, grape) for 1 pack (1 pack consist of 24 bottles) then get 1 bottle free.
2. Buy soda water size 10 oz regardless of soda taste for 1 pack, then get 1 bottle free - maximum at 2 sets.
3. Buy soda water either size 10 oz or 15 oz for 1 pack, get 1 bottle of 10 oz free
4. Buy soda water regardless of soda taste as set i.e. for every 36 packs of combine size 10 oz, 15 oz and 1 lt - get free items of 10 oz/15 oz for 2 bottles per pack and free item of 1lt for 1 bottle per pack
5. Similar to 4 with additional condition that 1 soda taste must be more than 50% - for example, it must be coke at least 50%
6. Sales quota - Buy 1 pack, get 1 bottle free - maximum 100 bottles for each customer
Please kindly share your experience or ideas. Thank you
ChanchanaHI,
1. Use txn VBK1 to create a bonus buy condition
2. In SAP Retail, we can create % Off Conditions, Absolute Off Conditions as standard promotion conditions, Special Price Conditions.
3. You can also can create Bonus Buy: Price, Bonus Buy: % Discount, Bonus Buy: Absolute Discount and Bonus Buy: Free Goods conditions.
For Example: Buy 4 Get 1 Free Article is a Bonus Buy condition. for this try In VBK1, use Discount Type BB04 to configure bonus buy.
For more information plz try this link http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/40/c0e238f0d111d2adff080009d2232d/frameset.htm

Free goods when material out of stock
Dear Guru's,
I have scenario wherein my order is e.g. 100 10 (excusive) and the stock is only 60.User want to create the order for 100 10 only and in dekivery he want to send the stock for available material. System is allowing to send the stock for 60 units and showing rest 50 with the next date as per In house production time and GR processing time as per material master.and no considering the free goods in delivery.
But the user want that system should consider the proportionate free goods in delivery itself e.g 54+ 6.
Pl suggest how can i handle this issue?
Regards,
SantoshDear Santosh,
There is a Free goods delivery control available in the condition table. This indicator determines whether free goods are to be delivered alone or in conjunction with the main item.
The following options are available
(Blank) Delivery takes place regardless of main item
A Delivery only if main item is partially delivered
B Delivery only if main item is fully delivered
C Delivery if main item is part. delivered, only with main itm
E Delivery proportional to quantity in main item
The delivery control "E" would be suitable to your requirements.

Giving BOM material as free good in Sales Order
Hi,
I have a business requirement.
I want to give a free good in Sales Oreder which is a BOM material.This should be possible by manually changing Item category for the line item in the Sales Order just like how we can change TAN to TANN in normal circumsatnces when we add free good material for any NON BOM material.
In standard functionality,the item category determined for this BOM material is TAQ but this item category field in Sales Order is non editable because of which I can not include the BOM material as free good in my sales order.
I have already defined one z Item category for free goods for this BOM material & want to use it in Sales Order.
Can you please suggest how this can be handled ?
Or is there any other work around by which will allow me to include BOM material as free good in my Sales Order ?
Thanks in advance
Regards,
BMHi,
Thanks everyone for the feedback.I agree with Samir Danish.It is a standard functionality of SAP which does not allow free goods for BOM material.
However, can someone suggest work around to deal with this issue.I mean if any one has been doing any work around for this issue then please let me know.It s becoming critical for me.

Dear frinds,
Please tell me detail about how to recieve and account free goods,
what are required setting to done in materil type, PO, MIGO ect,Hi
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. -
Exciseable free goods in purchasing
hi
i want to create free goods PO by deselecting invoice and Gr based IV but i want to mention some percentage of excise. how to handle this without base price.Hi,
May be you can use base price condition as statistical. In this case i think it will not be loaded on inventory and u can use this for calculation of excise.

Hello experts,
If the cost of free goods is not transferred to ordered goods (i.e. saleable goods), how to settle the cost of free goods?
For e.g. buy 10 pc of A then get extra 1 pc of A. This extra 1 pc of A is free of charge. When post goods issue in delivery, material doc & FI doc is generated for 11 pc of A. When billing, FI doc is generated for 10 pc of A only because the extra 1 pc is free of charge.
For this case, how to settle the cost for the extra 1 pc of A?Hi Cat
There can be multiple ways of handling this.. You would need to collaborate with your SD consultant
1. Add Sales Order item in your Sales order, where you enter 11 PC of the Product as the Qty
In the Pricing procedure, enter Base Price for 11 PC and Discount worth of 1 PC..
Remember that, in COPA, the COGS will be transferred only when you do billing.. So, if you do billing of 10 PC, the COGS of only 10 PC will go to COPA
2. Add 2 Sales order items as below
10 - Product A - 10 PC - Item Category - TAN
20 - Product A - 1 PC - Item Category - ZTAN
For the ZTAN you can call up a different pricing procedure which will have the discount condition type
May be there are few more ways of doing this.. I suggest you touch base with your SD guy

Shipping Charge for free goods Error FF805 Tax statement item missing o0
Hi,
We handle a lot of free goods and Subsequent deliveries which are free of charge.
The item category has been set "relevant for billing" and "100% discount (B)" for relevant for pricing.
We have absolutely no trouble in billing and creating the accounting document for the free goods.
However, sometimes the client would like to charge shipping/handling/freight cost to customers on this. In this case (the net value is 0 and freight will have some amount), billing document is generated as expected but accounting document doesn't.
We get the error "Tax statement item missing for tax code O0" FF805"
We think this happens because the net value being $0.00.
In pricing procedure all the shipping and tax condition types have requirement '2' (and I tried with blanks also)
How to correct this issue? The client wants to bill the customer for freight even if net value is $0.00.
Helpful answers will be rewarded.
Thank You,
ManojHi Manoj
Firstly , Check wheather the tax code O0 is assigned to MWST condition type in VK12 .
Secondly check wheather that tax code you assigned is an input / output tax .
Finally check what tax procedure has been assigned . and check wheather that tax code is available in that tax procedure or not

Hello Friends,
I searched quite a bit on FREE GOODS,SAMPLES (Outgoing), and how to handle the same in COPA, there were lots of threads on same, and few good ones. But i had some specific questions on same:
1) For Free Samples in Billing, its planned to do a sort of zero amount invoice (with some tax postings), hopefully the material cost will then flow to COPA through the VPRS condition type. Is there a way to route the VPRS values of scenarios like FREE GOODS, FREE SAMPLES to different value fields, and not the same value field which is used for Material Costs in the common billing scenarios.
FREE GOODS are those that are tied to some mail billing item, basically in those scenarios we have normal GOODS as well as FREE GOODS where as in FREE SAMPLES scenario, we just have free samples in the billing item, and nothing else.
Thanks
BallaHi
What you want is not the right way of doing it, but still it is possible in SAP
Either create a new cond type ZPRS as a copy of VPRS and use it in the Case of Samples... This means your Pricing Procedure needs to be changed in SD
ANother option is to use a Separate Bill Type in SD and use exit COPA0002 to move the Value from Normal Val Field to another in the case of Samples

If the Free Good and Actual Sales of Regular Goods have different Profit Center. There seems to be an issue that one profit center (A) gets all the revenue (6,750) while the other profit center (B) do not receive any revenue ( 0) for the sales.
What options do we have so that we can allocate a % of Revenue from the Regular Good Profit Center (A) to the Free Good Profit Center (B). (i.e. (310/(6750+310)) * 6750) so both profit center are being credit for revenue on the sales?
For Example:
Amount Profit Center
Customer Account 7,327.80
Sales 6,750.00- A Ship&Handl 29.17- A
Tax 271.40-
Tax 271.40-
Sales (Free Good) 310.00- B
Sales Discount 100% (Free Good) 310.00 B
Ship&Handl (Fre Good) 5.83 BHi Anda20,
just double click on the line item where you enter the free goods in vbn1 system will take you to different screen where you can do so .
also you can manually in sales order given any item for free , provided that the item category determination is done for that item
Revert if possible
