Sales returns with free goods

Hi All,
We are trying create sales returns with Invoice. But system is not copying the free goods item. I have checked relevant item category determination and Copy controls, everything is looking fine for me.
Please let know if any other settings are required.
I am getting below meeage.
Item category for item 000021 cannot be determined
Item 000021 is not copied from the refer
document.
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

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.

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

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.
Grzegorz

Hi,
As per my knowldge standerd sap will not work in ur case i hope u can devlop az programme.

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.
WC07 - Maintain Number Range Intervals
e.g.
No   From number       To number

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.

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,

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.

SALES RETURN WITH REFERENCE GL accounts

Hello SAP Gurus
when we do salesreturn with reference it will pick the same pricing procedure in returns and the accounting document in credit memo will be a reverse to same gl as in normal pricing procedure
eg customer dr    123
     sales ac                 cr   222
     bed                        cr   333
     ecess                    cr    444
     sheces                  cr    555
     vat                         cr    666
In returns with refernce the same entry will get reversed
eg customer cr   123
     sales ac                 dr   222
     bed                        dr   333
     ecess                    dr    444
     sheces                  dr    555
     vat                         dr    666
But my client requremnt is instead of sales ac 222 he wants a new sale return ac to be debited with new GL 232 but in scenario sales return with refernce its looking impossible to me
Can any one guide me on this is there ne other way out HERE I AM ONLY ADDRESSING SALES RETURN WITH REFERENCE

Hi - try this out -
copy your existing pricing procedure to new one
(eg pric proc zvva01 to zvret01)
for zvret01, assign new gl account determination as required
assign zret01 to billing type for returns
try it out and see if yoiu can make it work
cheers

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
Regards
Jacopo Francios

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

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,
mahesh

Return of Free goods item - Problem in item category

I am trying to create return order of Free sample billing
(ZFDP). The return order type for the free sample is ZFDR.
We have specified Item category for the ZFDR is RENN (Free good item) in IMG Activity -> Assign Item categories.
When I create order and save it, it prompts me to enter G/L Account.
This material is free. It should not prompt G/L Account for it. There is no revenue recognition specified for the item category. I tried changing item category to ZKLN i.e Free of charge item. This item category does not prompt for G/L Account while creating order. but I can not use this item category because it prompts me for Avialability. I can not remove the Avaialabilty check for it because the same item category is used in the Free sample order where availability check is required
In ZFDP order type, we are issuing 100% discount by using R100
discount condition. Please let me know how can I solve this problem.
I think there is some problem in my item category itself. .
My setting for Item category in IMG - Define item category is
same for both ZKLN and RENN. Only difference is RENN has returns
tick and pricing field is blank. In ZKLN pricing is defined as B- 100%
discount. I also tried changing the pricing option of RENN to B.
But still it is asking for G/L Account.
I can not use ZKLN instead of RENN because my ZKLN is used in the
Free item Sales order.
Please help.
Regards
