Free goods more than one item

[Former Member]

Hi,

I want to give you the free goods more than 1 item .

When we use "Exclusive", we can maintain the different product for free.

But we can maintain only one material for free. I want to maintain more products as free goods.

Is it possible ?

Hi,

Please find the below field Are Free Goods and give the number of item that you want to give free items..

Maintaining free goods:

Path for maintaining the free goods is (T-Code VBN1)

SAP Easy Access Logistic -> Sales and Distribution -> Master Data -> Conditions -> Free Goods -> Create.

Enter the discount type as NA00 and to give inclusive free goods enter Inclusive in Free Goods view.

Some of the important fields on screen (free goods inclusive).

Min qty : This is the minimum Quantity which should be ordered so that the order is eligible for free goods

From : From give the quantity after which the free goods will be given.

[Are free goods] : This number shows the number of quantity which should be given as free goods to the customer

e.g.: let us assume min qty is maintained as 1000 and from value is 100 and are free goods value is 10

Hi Lakshmi,

U got many replies. Just to clear any doubt on standard functionality see below:

Free goods is currently only supported on a 1:1 basis. This means that an order item can only be the source of one free goods item. This means that agreements involving relationships such as 'Buy material 1 and get material 2 and material 3 free of charge' or 'Order material 1 and material 2 together and get material 3 free of charge' are not supported.

Free goods is not currently supported in combination with material structures (e.g. product selection, bills of material, variants with BOM explosion).

Free goods is currently only supported for sales orders with document category C (not for quotations, for example).

Free goods is not currently supported for deliveries without reference to a sales order.

Free goods is not currently supported for make-to-order production, third-party order processing and scheduling agreements.

revert if more help needed.

Dear Lakshmi Narasimhan,

For multiple free goods, there is no standard SAP functionality. you can either use sales deal along with some ABAP developments. The T code for sales deal is VB21/22/23 and you will have to do the customization in VOK0.

Or you can use BOM, with pricing at main material, and inventory/delivery at Item. Here you can list the all the free goods as well as the main item as BOM component and a dummy material as Header and price it as the actual main material.

(I have not tried it, but you can try exploring this.)

Hi,

In one of the projects i worked earlier, they are using the cross selling functionality to offer n number of free items.

It may require some enhancements also, that is what i asked you to check.

Hi,

Yes this is possible. You can map this scenario to cross selling concept in SAP.

Do some research on this and map it.

I think you are aware of cross selling, if not let us know.

Hi Venkat Cheedalla,,

Can you explain how to process this functionality in Cross selling ?

I tried. But i think this cross selling will be used when you want to sell additional product along with the main product.

Say for example, when you cell T.V, you will also sell DVD player.

Please guide me how to do the free goods functionality?

Thanks

Hi,

It is not possible through cross selling to configure your scenario.

More one item as free goods is possible in IS-Retail -wherein you need to group Free goods as article grouping and use it in Bonus buy functionality.(in SAP Retail)

You would find Bonus buy in SAP ECC but it has limited functionality. - IMG- SD- Basic function- Bonus buy

Thanks,

Dear Lakshmi Narasimhan,

In standard SAP R/3, system allows only one material as free for one material. One material free if customer buys two or more materials is not possible and in the same way if the customer buys one material SAP R/3 cannot provide two or more materials as free materials.

This is possible only through IS-RETAIL's Bony Buy. I am not aware of that procedure. But in SAP R/3, one to multiple materials or multiple to one material or multiple to multiple is not possible.
