Condition Type disappears when Free Goods are redetermined after Date Change in SO

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

I have an issue, that When i create a SO having with required values, it comes up with a Free Good Determination with the defined condition Type, and after this when i goto VA02 and change the Date, its shows the Free Good but the Condition Type get Disappear from the Free Good details.

i am not sure why the Condition type is disaapearing, as the new date range also fall in right range, and still it shows the Free Good also.

Please provie your valuable feedback

Hi Nitin,

Some questions about your problem:

• The condition that is disappearing is the one for Free Goods or one for Pricing?
• If it is the one for Free Goods: where do you check that the condition type is missing?

Hi Ornella,

yes the conditon that is disappearing is the one for free goods.

and i am checking that in sales order-> Sales Tab->All item ->selecting the second line item of materials, which is free good.

then checking the item condition icon, then in pricing elements, the condition type for free goods is disappeared.

Nitin,

Sorry but I still don't understand which condition is disappearing.

Let me tell you what I'm testing to try to get the same error you mentioned:

• VA01
• First, I switch on the analysis for free goods determination:
  • Menu Environment > Analysis > Free goods > on.
• Then, I enter a material and a quantity that determines free goods.
  • Having switched on the analysis, I can now see a screen with the free goods procedure (NA0001) and the free goods condition (NA00).
• I go back to the main screen, I follow the steps you mentioned (sales order-> Sales Tab->All item ->selecting the second line item of materials, which is free good, then checking the item condition icon, then in pricing elements) but what I see here is the pricing procedure, not the free goods procedure. In this screen, I never see the free goods condition (NA00).

Hope this clarifies my question.

Am I missing something?

Hi Ornella,

i guess you get it correct, i am asking for the same as you understood.

but for confirmation, let me elaborate some more points in it.

i am not doing switch on the analysis for free goods determination.

i am just doing these things.

Step- 1. VA01 - Create SO with a specific material and quantity that determines free goods.

                        after this we get a free good with the given material at line item 2.

Step- 2. VA03 - Selecting the second line item of materials, which is free good, then checking the                         item condition icon, then in pricing elements) but what I see here is                          the pricing procedure, with free goods procedure too having goods condition                          (NA00).

Step- 3. VA02 - Change the Req. del. Date, to some date which falls under the free good procedure                          range too. then save and activate.

Step- 4. VA03 - Selecting the second line item of materials, which is free good, then checking the                         item condition icon, then in pricing elements) but what I see here is                                                  the pricing procedure, not the free goods procedure. In this screen, I never see                         the free goods condition (NA00).

When we did the same set of steps for changing the Quantity of main materials, it succesfully calculates and shows too.

Hope this clarifies my question.

Hi Nitin,

Thanks.

Just to clarify: this is not the condition type for free goods, it is the condition type for pricing to make the 100% discount.

Let me check if I find the reason for you problem with this new information.

Hi Nitin,

What do you see in the pricing analysis for condition type ZF04 in step 4?

Regards,

Ornella

[Former Member]

Hi Ornella,

can you please elobrate the point that the given condition is for 100% discount and not for free goods,

because it is condition being calculated under pricing procedure for free goods.

and answer to your second question is that it shows all rows but the only one with green trafic light and condition type ZF04 is not displayed.

one strange thing i faced yesterday while struggling with this that, when i changed the Pricing date from 04.07.2011 to 02.07.2011.

then after i changed the req del date several times but it calculated the condition type ZF04 and showed too. means no issue came.

i have no idea whats going on.

and yes thank a lot for patience.

Hi Nitin,

In this case, you are working with 2 procedures:

• Pricing procedure: configured under SPRO > Sales and Distribution > Basic Functions > Pricing > Pricing Control > Define And Assign Pricing Procedures

--> This one is used to determine the pricing for an item.

• Free goods procedure: configured under SPRO > Sales and Distribution > Basic Functions > Free Goods > Condition Technique for Free Goods > Maintain Pricing Procedures.

--> This one is used to determine the material and quantities for free goods (is the one that generates the second item in your SO).

What you are showing (condition type ZF04) is the 100% discount in the pricing procedure for the free goods item.

Hope it's clearer now.

Ornella

but still persist regarding pricing condition.

Thanks and Regards,

Nitin,

Nitin,

That's screenshot is not helping.

Please add the screenshot I asked for by pressing "Analysis".

i am really amused to know that nobody knows or ready to share the soultion to this.

kindly give your suggestions.

its like, when we create sales order for a specific material with specific quantity, it calculates a Free good Pricing procedure and comes up with a free material , having a condition type as free goods.

but when a change in Req.Delivery Date is modified (to a date which falls under the required range for free good pricing procedure too), the free material is retained but the condition type for Free goods is being removed from SO.

and when we modify the quantity of main material, it correctly recalculate the pricing thing and correctly shows the ondition type too.

can anybody tell me the reason for this behaviour.

Hi ramesh,

we are using the pricing procedure, copied for existing with some customizations

yes we are using the exit of sales MV45AFZB, haing subroutines

USEREXIT_NEW_PRICING_VBAP, and USEREXIT_NEW_PRICING_VBKD.

but i didnt find any issues, in them ..i.e as per mu understang these are to be used to decide the pricing type 'A' or 'B' etc..means like do we need to recalculate whole new pricing if some fields changes. etc.

i tried to change the pricing type to "B' in runtime to recalculate the whole pricing too, but it didnt worked.

i tried to look for some oss notes too, but i found everythng as required in code.

[jignesh_mehta3]

Hello,

Suggest you to consult your ABAPer & debug the execution of the Custom code in the User Exit you have applied.

There may be some bugs in the code.

Thanks,

Hi Nitin,

R u checking in the same client  R u sure abt that , or else just debug the program and find out

Regards

Ramesh

[Former Member]

yes, i debugged the logic in same client and didnt got any issue in code.
means didnt got/understood any issue.

[Former Member]

Hi,

i am the ABAPer, i debuged the code, compared too with the scenerio when we chnage the quantity, and it gives back correct pricing, but i didnt get any clue.

and the field which is changed (i.e. req. del date) is something not falls under header data too, like quantity etc.

so i am not aware how to use it for price recalculation. and i found on SCN that, in userexit i mentioned you can include the custom fields to enable i re calculation of pricing when change.

i did that too, meansi changed the pricing type = 'B' but it didnt calculate.

[former_member211616]

R u checking the order in same server ?

Ideally it wont happens

First of all, please try to learn how to post your query in a global forum like this.  Everybody is contributing purely on free of service here and to share their experience, members give suggestions, if they come across similar situation.  It could also be the reason for not responding that, this thread would have missed their attention and to be honest, I have not gone through this earlier.

i did humble request and i dont think that i have shown any negativity for the anyone.

and yes thank you for suggestion about the ways of posting the queries on such forums, i will definately adhere them.

[former_member184555]

when i goto VA02 and change the Date, its shows the Free Good but the Condition Type get Disappear from the Free Good details.

Which date is changed in sales order through VA02? Which condition type you are referring to?

[Former Member]

Hi Ravi,

i am changing "Requested delivery date of the document" , and i am using a customized Condition type ZFXX for Free Goods..

Experts..please suggest the cause...
