Hi;

We have currently similar requirement. This is how we do it... Production OE FOC Hardware u2013 ZPNN . Allows business to charge the COS for shipments of free-of-charge production hardware to OE customers to a unique G/L account in the COS section of the ledger. This management requirement provides separated visibility of the costs incurred for OE shipments.

Thanks,

Fyi,

If its regular sales or free of charge sales, Outbound delivery has to create to dispatch the goods to the customer. While issuing goods via OBD with Mov type:601, cost will be captured through accounting documents.

can you confirm, whether you want to capture the cost or price in FOC sales??

Assume, that we capture the price in G/L accounts after releasing Invoice to accounting, not the Cost. If you want to track FOC sales, you can very well use the std reports:VA05N with document type specific.
