How to combine BOMs with Free Goods?

Dear all.
I am currently working on setting up a retail store in SAP ERP (6.0). Our client requires from us creating a functionality that would allow to create sets and add free goods to a certain set. For example: if you buy a set consisting of a hammer and a drill at a regular price, you get a pair of gloves free of charge.
We used BOMs to create the sets and attempted to combine them with Free Goods, which prooved impossible -- FGs don't work with BOMs. We also tried to use Bonus Buys, but these seem to be working only with SAP Retail, which is not available to us.
Do you know any way around this problem?

It sounds pretty helpful, however, what we just found out it is impossible to give away free goods according to the local tax standards - so we have to give them away for a fraction of the price rather than free of charge. This forced us to create a separate logic to deduce different item categories in a sales order and different prices according to that.
Thanks anyway.

  • VPRS with Free Goods and Batch Determination

    Dear Experts,
    I have a problem on the products billing with Free Goods.
    I will explain this, before the implementation of Batch Management (with batch split) the billing document show the condition VPRS on the main item (TAN) and the free goods item (TANN).
    Now, when the Batch Management was up, the condition VPRS disappeared on the TANN item, I checked the order and it does shows the VPRS conditions. When i check the conditions on the billing document it shows me the following message when i check the VPRS condition
    Condition ignored (requirement 004 not fulfilled)
    Then I tried to debug the price determination and i realized that only on the TANN position the field komp-evrwr (price determination on the item category) is not 'X'.
    Aditionally i can mention thar the batch split item category is defined as YG05.
    Actually i only managed to show the cumulated VPRS cost on the main item.
    Please someone say to me if this correct or there is a way to put the VPRS on the free goods item.

    Dear Javier Sandoval Vera,
    As per the standard pricing Routine 4-Cost system may calculate the cost only for the pricing related materials,here TANN item is not relavent for pricing so system is giving that message.
    If you want consider non priced item also in the cost calculation then you can develop new routine as per your requirement with the help of ABAPer. (by copyingh the existing routine 4 then do the changes accordingly).
    Or
    You can maintain R100 -100% discount condition type in your pricing procedure,maintain settings as manual condition.
    Now maintained the price relevant check for free item also then give the 100% -discount by entering R100 condition type manually with 100% discount for that specific item to make the item price as zero.
    Now sytem will calculate the VPRS value without fail.
    I hope this will help you,
    Regards,
    Murali.

    Hi Javier,
    what do you do with the VPRS in your calculation- system ?
    If you need i, you delete the requirement 004 in your calculation -system.
    on the other hand, you can change TANN to komp-evrwr (price determination on the item category) is  'X'. Then you have to add an 100% rabate for TANN and the resukt will be free good.

  • BAPI_SalesOrder_CreateFromDat2 fails for items with free goods

    Hi all, I have a very weird problem when I am trying to create a sales order using SAP .net connector with the BAPI function BAPI_SalesOrder_CreateFromDat2().  The problem happens through the following scenario:
    1 - Item X has a free good rule on it that states "If user buys 5 Cartoons of Item X he will take 1 pack of Item Y free of charge" while Item Z has no rules like this
    2 - using BAPI and .net connector, an order is needed to be created with following details:
            a - Item X with quantity 6 Cartoons.
            b- Item Z with quantity 3 Cartoons
    3 - If BAPI_SalesOrder_CreateFromDat2() assigns these details to Order_Items_In with the same order (a then b),  SAP will return an error for Item z that states "No item category available (Table T184 ZKE NORM  KEN)."; while if the function tries to create the order with details in reverse order (b then a ), the order will be created successfully.
    I have done the following steps:
    1 - Tried the same order in SAP GUI but it succeeded. (So no problem in Item Category Determination)
    2 - Tries the same order with the suspicious order in the BAPI function Test inside SAP GUI (using tcode BAPI or SE37) but the function had not return any errors also.
    3 - Tried to send Item Category in code when calling the bapi function (Forced the code to KEN), but the same message appeared as SAP insist on redetermining the Item Category and return this meaningless message.
    thanks

    Hi Mohamed Abd Elbaset,

  • Invoice split with Free Goods !

    Hi All,
    I am having a invoice split when i am generating a sales order with free goods.
    Item category i am using is TAN & TANN
    Sales order -> Delivery -> Invoice (it is splitting to 2 deliveries) and 2 items are getting billed separately, i want in one invoice.
    Need help Please.
    Thanks & Rgds
    Naveen

    Delivery split can occur when the following are different:
    1. ship-to-party
    2. shpping point
    3. route
    4. incoterms
    5. transportation zone
    etc
    Delivery split happens based on not only on different shipping points,but it depends on your business logic which supports thru order to delivery copy controll.
    at item category level.if you do not have different shipping points for multiple line items ,but if you have for example business logic of say "any line items with 10 tons and above gross weight' can be split into multiple deliveries.

  • How to give two exlusive free goods to a customer

    Hello Gurus,
    Goodevening every body,

    Note- I only know one exlusive free good can be give to one material with combination of customer ( Customer/Material)

    Regards
    Venkat

    Hi Mohit ,
    The client have been following the same but sales personal are doing some malpratice,To reduce the price of the  total quantity  they are entering the free goods manually at sales order level  by giving excess free goods .
    Note-Now manual entry is not allowed  at sales order level .
    For  info i have seen some other reply saying to use BOM it is not suitable here bcoz main  item and sub item are not constant here.
    The typical thing here is some material chagred  in particular order and same material is given at free of charge in another for different customer so not possbile to fix the Bom here in this case.
    Other than this  any other possiblities!!
    Regards

    Hi,
    As per my knowldge standerd sap will not work in ur case i hope u can devlop az programme.
    see this examples.
    Free Goods Determination in Sales Order
    Free goods has the following limitations:
    - Free goods can only be supported on a 1:1 ratio. This means that an order item can lead to a free goods item. Agreements in the following form are not supported: u2018With material 1, material 2 and material 3 are free of chargeu2018 or u2018If material 1 and material 2 are ordered at the same time, then material 3 is free of chargeu2018.
    - Free goods are not supported in combinations with material structures (for example, product selection, BOM, variants with BOM explosion).
    - Free goods are only supported for sales orders with document category C (for example, not quotations).
    - Free goods are not supported for deliveries without reference to a sales order.
    - Free goods cannot be used in make-to-order production, third-party order processing and scheduling agreements.
    - If you defined a free goods for variants in a generic article (only SAP Retail), you can only process the variants in the purchase order and goods receipt individually (as single articles). In other words, you cannot process them using the generic article matrix.
    4.6x
    Not all Sales Order can be used for free goods determination.  You have to check the SD document category if it does not work.  Only category 'C' are supported.  Check transaction VOV8.
    Assume that you want to configure an inclusive FREE goods routine.  Customers must order a minumum quantity of 5 before any free goods can be assign.  For every quantity of 3, the customer will be given 1 free goods.

                           5           3                1                      1                1
    In this example, if you create a Sales Order for a quantity of 10, SAP will prompt you 7 as the customer order qty and 3 will be free.  Customer only pay for the 7 quantity.

  • Sales BOM And Free Goods workaround

    we have 1 good with a sale BOM and we want to give the Same good away as a free good, so if the customer buys 10 he gets one free, however there is a problem with the BOM not exploding. Can anyone suggest a workaround this.

    Hi
    I think this is a standard sap issue.
    When we give a free good the item category becomes TANN. Now BOM material will have different item category. TAB.
    Now for BOM category material, i think there is no free good item category. Probably u can try creating a new category which wil be a free goods category and which will carry all the characteristics of BOM mateerial.
    Furthermore i think this will be issue only with exclusive free goods. But if u have inclusive free goods then there will be no BOM issue as there will be no other line item added for free goods.
    Kind regards

  • A problem with return order with free goods

    Hello
    I am working on ECC 6.0
    I am facing a problem with the return order the case is I created an order of 1000 pc with inclusive free goods (w/o item generation) condition record that for every 10 pc over the 100 the customer will take  1 free pc
    1 pc = 10 $
    100 pcs = 900 $
    120 = 1080 $
    the problem when I am creating a return order with 30 pcs the system  calculate the price as if there are free goods the system returns the 30 pcs with 270 $ instead of 180 $ and it should not calculate the free goods because the remaining items are 90 pcs that should not take a free goods discount

    hi ,
    Such scenerios can be tackled by different pricing procedure in return scenerio.
    See Pricing procedure Depends on sales area + customer pricing procedure + Document pricing procedure .
    So for Return document type please maintain different pricing than the normal scenerio this will solve ur problem.
    This is generally done also for tackling such scenerios.
    Thanks & Regards

    I am getting below meeage.

    Thanks.

    Hi radha
    Say you have created a creditmemo with G2 document type and you are getting a item category of G2N , so check the item category TANN is available or not with G2 doctype and item category G2N  in VOV4 .Check in copy control wheather the item category is available or not in VTLA  . I suppose it is not there that is the reason you were getting error.
    Maintain item category data at copy control VTLA then your problem will be solved

  • Create PO using Idoc with free goods

    Hi guys,
    i'am currently working on a projekt i need to create a purchase order containing free goods.
    We've already tested the PORDCR/PORDCR1 message and Idoc types PORDCR101/102 with BAPI's
    IDOC_INPUT_PORDCR1  - w/ self-defined process code (via we42)
    BAPI_IDOC_INPUT1        - w/ standard process code (BAPI)
    Nothing worked. Got lots of errors in we05 transaction (mostly status 51)
    Important:
    We need to give the Idoc the free gods flag so we didnt need to set the net_price.
    Thanks for your help guys,
    Daniel

    Use Order PORDCR102, with your extension say ZPORDCR102.
    Create one control table and assign Function module to that table.
    Set this new Ztable with all required data like free goods.
    Then create new idoc, this new idoc will take message PORDCR102 and extension will pick new table and add free goods flag while creating PO.
    Hope this helps

  • Return Order WIth Free Goods

    Dear friends,
    Given below is a scenarion which needs suggestion.
    Product  " X "  is billed to a customer with Free 10 + 2.
    After 2 months he returns 6 nos of the same product.
    Return Order is made with reference to earlier billing document.
    ( where the billing is done as 10 +2 )
    When I enter 6 in the Return Order , the system should take
    5 + 1 automatically .
    Is it possible ?
    If so , please send your suggestion in detail.
    With regards,
    K G Unni

    Hi,
    Your requirement is not clear
    as per my understanding plz maintain the freegods masterdata as EXCLUSIVE.
    Ex:10 + 2(same product or different)
    and maintain another freegoods Master data with another
    pricing procedure
    which is inclusive
    Ex:6 ( 5 + 1)
    then assign this free goods pricing procedure
    Sales area + Doc Pr.Proc+Cust Pri.Proc = Freegods Pricing Procedure(Assign freegoods pricing Procedure)
    here we have different document pricing procedures for both
    returns and the normal order.
    This might be help full to you
    Thanks & Regards,

  • How to combine rows with small numbers into single "other" row?

    How can I combine rows with value 6(for example) or lower to single row representing the SUM of all this values and label OTHER, so the pie chart will have a chance to display all small values combined?
    I'm using Numbers 09

    HI Peter,
    When you write a decimal number, is the decimal separator a period ( . ) or a comma ( , )? If it's a comma, then the syntax error can be corrected by replacing the list separator in the formula, a comma in Jerry's formula, with a semi colon ( ; ):
    =SUMIF(B; "<6"; B)
    (Added): The two Bs appear in blue 'lozenges' in Jerry's image because that is the way cell (or column) references are displayed in Numbers when a formula has correct syntax.
