Hi Vikas,

Did you try to analyse your pricing in order item? It is often very informative and helps to find out why system does not picks up the condition record.

Double-click on order item > Conditions > Analysis button on the bottom

If it does not help... there can be many reasons e.g.:

1. your pricing table is not exclusive in the access and system finds a better condition (you can flag it to exclusive)

2. a requirement is assigned to your access and it is not fulfilled

Etc. Hope it helps.

Regards,

Gabor

Hi men,

I checked again and unfortunately your comment is right. Don't know why quantity > 1000, the scales is no more effective.

I have do around other thing but maybe Raj's comment is correct, let try to use ABAP code to solve it.

Hi

This seems to be not working out with scales

You should go for userexit or some development as suggested by one of the very elite member

As suggested by Mr.NGUYEN PHAM it works fine till order qty 999

For the order qty 999 it gives 50 only free

For order 500 also it gives 50 free

But the moment you change the order qty to 1000 the free goods becomes 100

From 1000 to 1499 the free is 100

From 1500 the free becomes 150

Ultimately we are not able to restrict the free goods upper limit

I did extensively work on this by changing all the scale controls in V/06 for condition type R100

But nothing seems to be working

I feel the calculation rule prorata,wholeunits,unit reference play a major role here

You have to develop a new routine

May the other elite friends has to give better solution

Regards

Raja

Dear sunny,

I believe the case which issued by Mathieu can satisfy by scales. I tried to test and I could do it by follow data. I used the IDES data, pls refer below:

T-Code : VBN1

Basic Free good setting for Exlusive:

T-ASA13 Flatscreen MS 1460 P 100 100 PC 10 PC 9,09 2 2 Exclusive M-02 Sunny Xa1

And this is scale for above Exlusive:

From 100 100 PC 10 PC 9,09 2 2 Exclusive M-02 Sunny Xa1

From 200 200 PC 20 PC 9,09 2 2 Exclusive M-02 Sunny Xa1

From 300 300 PC 30 PC 9,09 2 2 Exclusive M-02 Sunny Xa1

From 400 400 PC 40 PC 9,09 2 2 Exclusive M-02 Sunny Xa1

From 500 500 PC 50 PC 9,09 2 2 Exclusive M-02 Sunny Xa1

And I tried to create a SO with order type is OR: T-code Va01

10 T-ASA13 700 PC Flatscreen MS 1460 P TAN

11 M-02 50 PC Sunny Xa1 TANN 10

As you see it can be done by my data. Please try to do it if it's suitable with your requirement

Pls fix it if I misunderstand your case.

Hi

That is not possible in standard SAP. But you can achieve this functionality with the help of Userexits in sales order.

Thanks,

Thank you for your answers.

I think that my question was not clear.

I'll give an example :

For 100 units of material A, we give 10 units of material B.

The maximum quantity (the limit) that we can give as free goods is 50 UN.

Which means that even if a customer orders 600 units of material A, the maximum quantity which is gonna be given as free goods is 50 UN.

Is this possible in SAP?

[former_member550050]

Hi

If i understood your requirement correctly that you want to restrict the free goods to a maximum limit that is 50 in this example

Suppose for 100 material A is orderd then 10 material B free

Then 500 material A is orderd then 50 material B free

For any qty order above 500 may be it is 501 or 1000 of material A then only 50 units of material B should go free

If this is what your requirement is then it is possible by Scales

Go to VN01 and give scales accordingly and give a try

If scales doesnt satisfy your requirement developing a new calculation rule like Prorata,Related to units,Whole units etc with your ABAPer

I feel you should be able to achieve it through scales

Thank you Raja,

this is exactly my request.

But how can I define scale for this ? Can you give me a concrete example ?

[former_member550050]

Hi Mathieu

You have to wait for another 12 hrs

Right now i dont have Access to SAP screens

I will run this scenario and come back with the outcome in 12 hrs

In the meanwhile you can try in VBN1 there will be scales in the application tool bar

All the best

Hi ,

see this it may clear ur dought.

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

01 0000010000 0000099999

IMG -> Sales and Distribution -> Basic Functions -> Free Goods ->

V/N6 - Activate Free Goods Determination

Assign Order Type OR with Document Procedure A with Procedure FREE

VBN1 - Create free goods determination

e.g. FREE inclusive

Material Min qty From are free good Calc Rule 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.

Hi

Constraints in Free goods in R3

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.

So maximum 1 + 1 you can give

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
