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

  • Sales BOM And Free Goods

    hi,
    I have the following problem, for one of our materials (Norm), we have a sales bom for a material (Nlag). however with the same material, we have free goods of the same main material inclusive. what happens now is that i can only explode either the sales bom or the free goods, but i require both to eplode together.

    Dear Reshigan Govender,
    This cannot be taken as a part of the standard functionality. For this development is required.
    Do let me know in case of any queries.
    Hope this helps you.

  • Sales BOM and related to cost

    Dear All,
    Our client has requirement of sales package as below:
    1. They want sell sales BOM as sales package
    2. Material A is main item, and material B, C, and D as component
    3. They sell material A and want the revenue also cost post to material A
    My colleague said already set up the config sales BOM,  and the result are:
    Revenue post to material A (father/main item)
    Cost post to material b, c, and d.
    However our client need all cost moved to main item (material A)
    How's the behaviour of sales bom exactly? Especially the costing?
    And what must we do to cover the requirement.
    Regards,
    Dewi

    Hi,
    Go to VTFL --- > Select the document type --> Go to item level and tick the cumulate the cost.
    Cumulate cost
    This field is used in the main item to control whether the cost value (usually condition type VPRS) is to be copied from the relevant sub-items. The following cases are taken into account:
    Free of charge sub-items (free goods)
    Batch split items
    Bill of material components
    This function is needed especially if the sub-items involved are not relevant for billing. In this case the costs of these sub-items do not appear in CO-PA or the statistics
    Hope this will resolve your issue.

  • Regarding Material Determination and free goods determination

    Hi Gurus,
                 I understand the Material Determination to be substitution of a new material for the old one for any possible reasons such as sales Campaign,non availability etc.
    Could anyone one explain the concept whether material determination and Free good determination can co-exist in a sales order ?
    How to substitute by material determination procedure for a free good in a sales order?
    Regards,
    S.Ravi kumar

    Hi.,
              We can use material determination and free goods,as per my knowledge material determination takes first and to the swapped material free goods determiination takes place

  • Scale in pricing and free goods.

    Hi All,
    Can anyone plz tell me ,What is the role and how to use the scale in pricing and free goods determination.
    Regards,
    Ashima

    hi,
    . Create a condition by copying a a standard condition like BO03 in V/06
    2. Assign this condition in the std pricing procedure with acct key as ERB and accural key as ERU - V/08
    3.Create a  Rebate Agreement in VBO1 (It is O = Owl and not zero). No will be generated
    choose 003 - Customer rebates, enter the customer code, the validity and check for the status shld be in Open, click on the conditions enter the percentage and accrual amount. You also can have scales in this. Also you need to maintain the material for the settlement
    4. Create a sales order for that customer and check the rebate agreement.
    5. You can see the rebate condition in the invoice only.
    6. Once you have posted the invoices, then go to rebate agrrement no. clicl on verfication and it will show the order details.
    7. For settlement change the status of the rebate to B - release for the settlement.
    8. Credit memo request will b generated copy the no. and go to VA02, remove the blocks if any and create an invoice (credit memo).this will show u the accrual amount.
    9. In both the invoice and the credit memo check the posting - accounting document it will show u the accrual as negative.
    10. Again go to rebate aggreement and check the status it will show you D - Final settlement of agreement already carried out

  • Sales BOM and BOM

    Hi All,
    I was hoping someone could give me some information about Sales BOM and BOM.  How do they affect FI and or CO.  If anyone has any links or documents that i read about them id really appreciate them too.
    Thanks in advance,
    Noman

    Noman plesae read below from a previous thread
    Points will be appreciated
    Routing should define the production process, how to build the product from the BOM, so it is normal to have a routing having one or more operations each of which is assigned to a work center. Each workcenter can be assigned to a cost center and may have different types of activities that can be performed, each of which might have a different price at that cost center. This is how the routing, and hence the production order that has the routing will be costed when work is confirmed at the workcenter level, for the value added.
    Material costs can be costed per BOM (target) and based on actual consumption (actual cost). Apart from these, it is possible to have overheads defined too.
    Normally you should have a routing for the cost estimate with quantity structure. You can define one single dummy routing and assign it to any number of products, if you don't need it for any real work tracking (in case of a simple manufacturing process like kitting). That would significantly reduce your master data maintenance efforts.

      Re: Bom and Routing   
    Posted: Mar 9, 2007 8:19 AM    in response to: Zaid M. Azam       Reply 
    Hi,
    Basically As you are aware BOM contains child parts of the parent material.
    Routing defines how you are going to produce. ie operations,
    If routing has say 3 operation steps you will define in the operation details where u will produce (work center) and time taken for each operation. Also you can maintain tools(PRT) for those operation and inspection datas(inspection time).
    Next details in work center(which you are assigning in operation.In work center you will maintain the link between activity type and cost center. Activity type is for example labour hour. In costing KP26 transaction a link will be established for activity type and cost center and corresponding cost.
    If you are using work center X having activity cost as 100 Rs/Hour. The system will calculate depending upon the time mentioned while confimation the cost.
    Hope this will help how routing,BOM and cost are linked.
    Please award points if this is really helpful

  • Sales bom and assembly bom

    i want to make sales bom which consists of all the materials to make a product(machine).this sales bom is available to sales person and he has to select the varients depends upon customer requirement(varient configuration).
    then all materials are to be manufactured and are to be available in stock.
    after this step assembly person has to assemble the components according to the assembly procedure for that he has to refer assembly bom which consists of logical grouping of components for his easiness in assembly.
    so sales bom has to be with materials only(components which are to be produced to make final product) and assembly bom is with logical grouping of these materials according to assembly procedures and total materials are same in sales bom and assembly bom
    is there any method in sap to link sales bom and assembly bom which are different for sales and assembly?this is make to order scenario
    thanking you
    srinivas

    Hi Srina,
    The difference between them is
    In the assembly bill of materials, the finished product appears in the sales order document.
    But in Sales bill of materials, the finished product and the components appear as separate items in the sales order document.
    For example the finished product can be a set of office furniture.
    you can use the assembly bill of materials to define the composition of the set. The finished product is not stored as an entire set in the warehouse. However, the individual components of the set (for example, chairs, tables, and Almirah) are items in stock. If a customer buys a set of Office furniture, draw the components from stock and deliver them to the customer as a set.
    Hope this help,
    Regards,

  • 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?
    Grzegorz

    Shantanu
    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.

  • GATP in APO and Free Goods Pricing Records in R/3

    We have set up Free Goods in SAP R/3. These free goods are granted based upon a series of access sequences in pricing.
    We also have our Order Entry system using GATP on our APO box. In that APO instance, we have set up a large number of product substitutions to occur at order time.
    When an item is ordered that is NOT subbed to different item by APO and that item has Free Goods associated with it, the Free Goods are granted by R/3 and placed onto the sales order.
    When an item is ordered that IS subbed to different item by APO and that item has Free Goods associated with it, the Free Goods are NOT granted by R/3.
    Why are the Free Goods being ignored after the substitution? We have Free Goods records in pricing for BOTH items, and neither one is granting the Free Goods.
    Is this a bug, a feature, or an oversight ?
    Any help in this area will be GREATLY appreciated!!!

    Hi John,
    GATP in APO does not supports Free Goods.

  • Standard and free goods item category

    Hi
    I have created one standard materia XYZ. in MM01( for Sales org 1000/ Dist. channel 10/  plant 1000.) and i have assigned TAN to this . Now i also need to process XYZ as free goods in some transactions.If  I  extend this material for the same organizational levels and  assign TANN to my material XYZ. then at the time of creating sales order how the system will respond?
    Or should i have to change the item category in VF01 every time when i want to give XYZ as free goods?
    what should be the right procedure?
    Regards
    Jyoti

    Hi Jyoti,
    You mentioned that some times you send it as free item for this you better to enter TANN item category manually in the sales order  no need of enter the item category in the VF01.
    Before entering the TANN in the sales order for free item you do the itemcategory determination in VOV4 transaction with TANN as like this
    Document typeItemcatogory group-->Default itemcategory(DfltC)as TANManual item category as TANN(Mltca).
    Now you can able to enter TANN itemcategory manually in sales order.
    I hope it will help you,

  • Free of charge delivery and free goods

    hello,
    I need clarification  on the following.
    There are two different things. one is free of charge delivery and the other is free goods.
    1) for free of charge delivery, order type is  FD , I think we have to maintain TANN(with pricing as B,100% discount). This will trigger R100 as 100% discount condition in pricing procedure. Am i right ?
    2) The other is Free goods determination(OR order type). where free goods condition records are maintained and gets determined in sales order. for this scenario,  TAN and TANN (100% disc) is maintained in item caterory determination. I think in this case NRAB is required and not R100 in pricing ? am i right ? ..

    Free of charge delivery -
    Free of charge delivery is used mostly when you provide samples to customer

  • Pricing date and free goods

    Hello Folks,
    My understanding is Free goods is determined basically based on quantity as in quantity ordered.
    The system re-reads free goods condition record in the sales order when quantities of the main item changes or when Pricing Date changes.
    Based on the above, I need to clarify :
    1. If free goods is based on quantity, how does a change in the pricing date affect the determination? I assume the by pricing date change, it is referring to the pricing date setting in a free goods condition record.
    So, I am not sure why pricing date change requires a re-determination of the condition record for free goods.
    Or is it because free goods is determined based on  $ amount of goods ordered?
    Moreover, its said that when Pricing is Re-Run, free goods determination is un-affected.
    Cheers.
    John

    Hi,
    Free goods can be of two types. Inclusive and Exclusive.
    Inclusive discount are always value discount. What I mean is, if you buy 10 qty of an item, say 2 qty is free, then, it means, 20% off on the original price. i.e. only 8 are billed and 2 are discounted from pricing.
    In exclusive free goods, you are shipping 10 qty of an item + 2 qty of the same item in addition to 10. So, 10 are billed.
    When the pricing date in the sales order is changed, how will the system know whether the item being priced on a particular day should allow the free goods or not. So, free goods determination becomes necessary. Hence, it goes thro' free goods determination when you change the pricing date on the sales order.
    Hope this helps.

  • Promotion number in the sales order for free goods promotion.

    Hi,
    I have a business scenario in which "Sales Orders are created" for the customers in SAP IS Retail System.(This is for helpdesk ordering). In most of the occasions, free goods promotion would be running. The free goods promotions(exclusive) are maintained using promotion module in IS Retail system(condition type NA00). In this situation, the promotion number is not getting populated in the sales order automatically. Is there any specific configuration required or any BADI needs to be activated?
    Note: Free goods item is getting generated automatically in the sales order with item category TANN.
    Can any one advice pls.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Selvakumar
