Problem with free of charge items

Hi experts,
I am trying to create a free charge item and system is not proposing TANN item category automatically.
There are no other items in the order except for this free of charge item.
Am i missing some steps?
Thanks

In sales order overview screen, enter the original material as well as the material you want to give away for free.
Assign the lowest level item to the higher level item by indicating item number of higher level item in field HgLvlt.
If item number of higher level item is 10. Then against item number for your free item, in field HgLvlt enter 10.
Once you do this, you would get message that item category will be redetermined.
Hope this answers your question.

Problem with Free of Charge Sale Returns against Cost Center

Dear All,
The problem is related to Free Sales which is as follows -
I have issued free of charge against Cost Center & now I want to know whether any process is there or configurations can be done to return the free of charge issued goods along with the cost center. As in the order in header level while doing return the cost center is not getting reflected.Again in the outbound delivery creation mode also at the item detail level under the "Financial Processing" tab the cost center field is present but it is greyed out/ inactive.
Please suggest what are the configurations needed to create returns of the Free Of Charge goods against Cost Center.
Looking forward to early replies.
Thanks & Regards
Priyanka Mitra

Hello Mr. Lakshmipathi,
First of all thanks for your help.As per your suggestion I have maintained the Cost Center against the Order Reason in OVF3 and it is getting reflected in the Sales Order but whenever I am keeping the field of Cost Center blank in OVF3 the "Cost Center " is remaining inactive & not even displayed in Sales Order.Instead the system is asking for WBS element.
Now I want to know is there any configuration possible so that the Cost Center field will be reflected in either Sales or Delivery Order as blank space & not greyed out which will be filled up manually.
Plesae suggest.
Thanks & Regards

Problem with Free-of-Charge Sales

Dear All,
The problem is with the document flow of free-of-charge sales where although I am using standard Item Category KLN still after completion of the Sales Process till invoicing the status is showing " Being Processed" against Free-of- Charge Sales Order & "Completed" against Delivery, PGI & Invoice.
How can I change the status to "Completed" against Sales Order also?
Please help.

Check the schedule line category whether it is marked as item relevant for delivery,remove the check box and try.

Free of charge Item determination in SO with cost and revenue transfer

Hi,
Please guide me on the followings.
I have a following requirement for determining the free goods in the sales order .We have two plants
1. Plant 1 is for valuated materials
2. Plant 2 is for Free of charge Items
Free of charge items which are given to the customers are supplied by the vendors and stored in the plant meant for the Free of charges items. But sometimes when free of charge items are not available in the stock then user take FOC item from the plant which is meant for the valuated materials and send it to the customers as a free of charge item.
User wants to transfer the cost of the FOC item to the main item when FOC material is taken from the valuated plant and sent to the customer.
Similarly when there is no stock of material in the valuated plant then user take the same material from the Plant2(Non-valuated) and send the material to the customer. In this case user wants to have the revenue posted in the respective G/L Account.
But it should also appear as a free of charge items in the billing document.
Regards
Rahul

hi,
transfer of cost from sub item to main item is configured in the delivery to billing copy control for the main item. go to VTFL > select the required item cateogry > here at the bottom you will find a check box Cummulate cost. Tick it.
Not really what you meant COPA purposes. But the pricing conditions are mapped to COPA value fields at KE4I transaction.

PO with FREE of charge position - goods receipt change the average price

Hi Experts,
in our SAP system we have a special situation concerning the PO with free of charge (FOC) items.
We set the flag "Free" in the PO position for all FOC items. When we book the good receipt for these FOC items SAP creates no accounting document and the average price is changing.
for example: 1 pce is on stock with the value 100; we receive 1 pce for FOC
new average price: (100 + 0) / (1 + 1) = 50
this is a big problem for us.
for us - the goods receipt for the FOC articles must be with the actual average price (table MBEW) similar to a return goods booking in the SD Module - movement type 653 !
this means for our example: 1 pce is on stock with the value 100; we receive 1 pce for FOC
new average price: (100 + 100 (acutal average price)) / (1 + 1) = 100
I read a lot of OSS notes and many entries in the forums and I think many other companies have the same problem.
is there any solution possibility to do that in this way?
thank you for your help
Peter Lechner

it is logical that the moving average price changes. if you dont want that, then you either have to have an extra material master for your free of charge stock, or you need to implement split valuation and can then have batches that are not valuated.
But if you have 10 on hand with a value of 20 $, then the moving average is 2$
if you then get another 10 free of charge, then you have 20 on hand with total value of 20$, which just means 20$ div by 20 quantity = 1 $ MAP.
if SAP would not change the MAP in that moment, then the goods receipt is valuated with the current MAP and the total value of your stock increases to 40. but this is then not a free of charge case.

Sales order with free of charge

Hi Guru,
I have the following problem.
My client produces ties. Sometimes, in a sales order he wants to introduce a present.
In this case, he wants to have a sales order with two item, first selling and the second free of charge.
Haw can I post the costs of the second item to cost center?
Example:
Item 1: revenue posted to profit center
Item2: costs posted to cost center
Thanks in advance
Regards
Raffaele

Hi,
For assigning of the cost center to the free of charge item please follow the below process.
1. Do the free goods determination as per standard with the main item having item category TAN and the free item have item category TANN.
2. Then carry out an account assignment using item category as below.
Table Description
555 Sales org./AcctAssgGr/AcctAsgnmt/Acct key/Item cat.
3. Assign the account key ERS (Sales deduction) or any other account key (customized) as per your requirement to a G/L account.
I hope this helps to solve your issue.

Free of charge item in PO

Hello all,
I have a situation where I have a third party order with 3 line items. Line item 30 is free. When a pur req is created it has only item 10 and 20 in there and not the 30. And since the PO is copied from the pur req, the PO is also minus item 30 which is free of charge. I need to have this line in the PO with 0.00 price. This also need to show up in MIRO. And the final billing document should also have the line item 30 with 0.00 price.
I have tried another way of having a price for item 30 in the third party order. Which then copied to the Pur req and ultimately to the PO. I changed the value for it to 0.00. But the MIRO did not have the line item 30 and the F2 invoice too did not it pick up. Please let me know how can I make this to work.
Appreciate your help and time.
Thanks

Thanks for your reply. I checked that box and it becomes a free of charge item. Now when I do the MIRO that particular line item is missing. And when I do the F2 invoice for the third party order too that line is missing. My requirement is that I should be able to see in the F2 invoice as a free item. This is required for customs purposes.
I have also tried checking the box : " Final Invoice " in the PO for that particular line item. ANd the FREE check box is still there , and the F2 invoice has the free line item but it is showing the std price. I would like to see the price as $0.00.
Appreciate your help and time
Thanks

Free of charge item tax calculation

Hi all
I have a requirement for VAT calculation for free of charge item in sales order.
For these items (item category TANN) with VPRS for internal price condition and MWST for VAT tax condition i'm able to calculate the value for VAT accounts purpose.
Is there any exit that enables me to create this? Will it be in SD invoice registry?
thanks in advance

Hi
If you are asking whether the congiguration is possible it is certainly possible in standards itself with alignment of condition types
Normally we will place condition type MWST after R100
In this case MWST should be placed before R100
It is the same as suggested by Mr. Murali but the important thing which he missed out is After placing R 100 after MWST you have to Fill up FROM and TO for condition type R100 excluding the step nos of MWST
Suppose PR00 is step 10
Then it should be MWST Step 20
Then R 100 step 30 For this R100 you should fill up from and to as 10 and 10
Now when a material is Rs100 and 10 + 1 free is there and if the order is for 10 units and if the tax ix 4 %
then the nett value will be Rs 1000(10x100)
tax value will be Rs 44 (tax is calculated for 11 units at 4%)

Free of charge items in billing document

Hello!
I need to include free of charge item RENN (return order) into billing document. I am to use such item in output document.
But when I create billing doc from order or from delivery I recive messagelike that - "3610000010 900003 Item category ZLR ZRNN cannot be invoiced with billing type ZRE" (ZRL is copy from LR. ZRNN is copy from RENN)
Is it error in customizing or system limitation?
Andrey Garshin.

Hi Andrey,
This is an issue with the copy control. Kindly check the settings in copy control VTFL.
Check for delivery to billing type ZRE if the mention item categories are maintained.
You need to include the missing item category there.

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,

Free of charge items, ie price = u00A30.00 are not transferred to backend.

Free of charge items, ie price = £0.00 are not transferred to backend. PO created with held status, but the SRM PO item IR flag is selected. If we manually amend the SRM PO item to remove the 'invoice receipt' flag, then save the PO, the PO does get to the backend with a price of zero, the IR flag de-selected and the 'free' item flag selected.
How do we manage to get the PO with free items to the backend without having to manually change the held PO in SRM? We are on SRM 5.0 using extended classic.

Hi
We have done this type of requirment.. several times.. This is easily possible ..
You need to Implement the BADI - BBP_CREATE_PO_BACK using SE18 Transaction.
Either you can do this sample code inside BAPI (Make changes accordingly) or inside the BADI - BBP_CREATE_PO_BACK / BBP_CREATE_PO_BACK_NEW depending on your requirement.
LOOP AT po_items INTO ls_po_items WHERE net_price IS INITIAL.
* Reset the IR Indicator for Items with Zero net price
 ls_po_items_add_data-po_item = ls_po_items-po_item.
 ls_po_items_add_data-ir_ind = space.
 ls_po_items_add_data-gr_ind = 'X'.
 ls_po_items_add_data-gr_non_val = 'X'.
 APPEND ls_po_items_add_data TO po_items_add_data.
ENDLOOP.

Delivery free of charge item control

Hi all
Where i can set the control "B" for free of charge items for avoid they are copied in delivery without their parent item?
Thanks
Davide

Hi,
Go to Item Category Definition (T-Code : VOV7) and assign B to the Pricing field. This particular item category will now be treated as a free goods item.
Coming to your other question: Free goods should be dispatched only with the main item.
I don't think system has any such restriction for exclusive free goods. In case you have inclusive free goods, you can have the free goods without item generation in that case you will have the material dispatched with the main item.
Thanks n Regards,
DP

Scheduling agreement - free of charge item

Hi Community,
how can I purchase a "free of charge" item via a scheduling agreement?
In a purchase order the "free of charge" indicator is available, but I can't find anything similar for SAs.
Currently I've set the price field as display only in a custom screen layout, but I am pretty sure this is not the proper way to do it and I get a warning every time I create an SA.
Thanks,
C

You can create intracompany scheduling agreement without price, you have to use document type "LU". Before using document type "LU", you have to make sure below configuration is in place.
In the "Set up Stock Transport Scheduling Agreement" nodes, you have configured following IMG nodes
"Assign Delivery Type and Checking Rule"--- In this IMG node assign assign delivery type for document type "LU"
"Assign document type"--- In this IMG node assign document type "LU" between supplying & receiving plant.
I have done this with one client and it is working fine.

One time 2 free of charge item in an order

Hi Gurus
I am working on an sd pricing role that that has a requirement in place for pharmaceutical companies to offer (one time only) 2 free vials of Soliris to every new patient free of charge and a discount from the list price on the rest of the order,
the scenario is like this line item- total of 6 orders for 100 EU/ vial from a new patient- this is how they would like it to be on the invoice,
Quantity                                                                                Amount
2 (vials free of charge)    2* 100 Eu- 100% Discount                             0.00
4 vials @ PR00 with a discount of 9.78% (4* 100)9.78%                   360.

charges regular price on the rest of the order
Ur help would be awesomely appreciated
