Free Goods Requirement

[Former Member]

Dear Friends

The following is the requirement:

Let's assume,  a business gives 2 goods free, for every 10 goods, ie 10+2 (Exclusive)

In the Std System, when we do delivery for those 10 goods, the system allows to process the delivery, though the 2 free goods are NOT available.

The requirement is,

if those 2 free goods are not available, then the system should NOT process the outboud delivery.

Requesting guidance & help, on this.

Hello,

When you maintain the Free Goods Condition Record in T-Code VBN1. there is a column named F.. (

Free goods delivery control)

The Various options available there are as follows:

Delivery takes place regardless of main item

A Delivery only if main item is partially delivered

B Delivery only if main item is fully delivered

C Delivery if main item is part. delivered, only with main itm

E Delivery proportional to quantity in main item

There is no option matching exactly to your requirement. Probably you can try with E & check.

Alternatively, I feel you will have to apply a User Exit in Delivery Document.

Thanks,

Hi

If both the line items in sales order (main item and the free goods item) are grouped under a single delivery group, then system will redetermine schedule lines determining the same confirmed delivery date for both the line items.

Hello Ramesh,

As far as your query is considered, here is my thought:

You have to maintain the availability check settings for the free item. In std settings, the main item has item cat. TAN and the free item has TANN. You have to ensure that this TANN item category and its schedule line category allows the availibility check.

(Assuming that you know avl. check config part).

If you want to carry out the avl check even in delivery; then make sure delivery item category TANN allows the avl check re-determination in delivery.

Hope this info answers your doubt.

Hello Ravi Sankar,

To be best of my knowledge, Delivery Groups is availalbe only for BOM materials.

You can check the same in Item Categroy Definitation - VOV7.

Create Delivery Group Box is available under Bill of Material/Configuration.

Hi Jignesh,

To create a delivery group...the material need not be a BOM. You can manually create a delivery group in the sales order. I am copy-pasting the details from F1 help, for your reference.

Delivery group (items are delivered together)

A combination of items that should be delivered together.

Use

The system uses delivery groups to check the availability of items that should be delivered together. The delivery date of the latest schedule line in the delivery group is taken as the general date for the whole group.

Procedure

During sales order processing, you can enter a number (up to three digits) that identifies a delivery group. The number is freely definable.

Dependencies

If necessary, the system adjusts requirements that have already been created and changes the material availability dates for individual items to the delivery date that it has determined for the group.

Example

If a typewriter is usually delivered with a case, you can define the two items as a delivery group.

Note

If an item has more than one schedule line with a confirmed quantity, then the system deletes all undelivered schedule lines up to the last one. The system automatically carries over the quantities from the deleted schedule lines into the last one. If necessary, the system changes the delivery date of the last schedule line to that of the delivery group.

Hi Jignesh,

As you mentioned, the field name is VBAP-GRKOR.

In the overview screen of the sales order, you can see this field in the SHIPPING tab.

Ravi

It has been observed that you were habitually reproducing others' suggestion quite frequently.  Avoid giving similar suggestion when somebody has already suggested.  In this case, Jignesh has already suggested and you were reproducing the same with the addition of screen shot.

Moreover, there are certain un-written rules where this case is an example.

On your comments

i am really fed up all my point gone wt ever hard work i done u r removing all my points

you have to accept the fact that your points were removed only when you copy paste from other source despite repeated warnings.  Please understand it is not Moderators intention to reduce the points without proper reason.  Also, you should understand that many members have lost their entire points in the past for deviating the forum rules and in that sense, you should feel happy that you have not in those list by loosing the entire points. 

Still if you feel that your points have reduced without any proper reason, you can provide that thread here so that the points will be rewarded, if found your concern is genuine.
