Dude,

Use the TANN Item category in the order and do the delivery and invoicing normally. Make sure the copy controls were maintained properly between order --> Delviery --> Invoice.

If you have already tried this what errors you are facing ?

Hi,

For invoices with zero value the accounting document will not be generated.

Hope it helps.

Mr. Rao,

Even though the amount is Zero $, System will not stop you creating an Invoice, but it won't create accounting document which you don't care.

What error message are you getting while trying to create Zero $ Invoice ?

I can guess one thing. May be the system might ask you to enter some non zero $ price. In that case check the pricing procedure for the billing document and remove the mandatory check box for the condition type that throws the error.

Let me know what error you faced ?

Hi

Generally for free goods the proforma invoice is widely used.

For order related billing F5 and delivery related billing F8 are billing types. But these docuement dont post accounting entries. Hence if you want to use the free goods pricign also analysis in COPA then you will need to use F2 invoice. Only thing is you will need to define copy control, and the item category TANN to be relevant for billing and that also F2.

Hope this helps

In the standard system, pricing for free goods items is deactivated

Pricing is not activated for the free goods item category (TANN).

In billing document the free goods items are displayed as items free of charge

If you want to represent the sales deduction process in Controlling (CO-PA), you can do this by performing the first three IMG activities:

1. activate pricing with value 'B'.

2. define a condition type.

3. enter this condition type in the required pricing procedure as a 100% discount.

4. enter the requirement 'free goods' in the pricing procedure for this condition type. This requirement checks the pricing value 'B' which means that it applies only to free goods.

CO-PA may require a different scenario. In this case, pricing for free goods is deactivated but the costs for free goods are copied into the higher-level sales document item.

You can do this by performing the fourth IMG activity. In this activity, you configure the document flow from delivery to billing document at main item level so that the costs of the sub-items are copied into the main item.
