prorota calculation rule for free of goods

[Former Member]

Dear sd gurus

             i am asking about prorota , it is one type of calculation rule for free of goods .

suppose generally we maintain free goods like this

if customer buys 100 qnty 10 items free( general scenario)  , but prorota rule is if customer purchased some items we r giving free goods based on how much he purchased

EX : 180 he purchased so we r giving free goods like this 180*10/100= 18 ( this is ok )

so if any customer purchased 150 items just u think in this case we r giving free goods only 7 for 100 qnt

now calculation rule is 150*7/100: 10.5

so here calculated rule is just 10.5 i mean while creating sale order how free material will come ( 10 or 11)

is there any adjustments are available in system?

thank you so much ur kindly help

Hi venu ,

i will try to give clear picture about calculation rules in free goods.

Calculation procedure: We can specify the Routines for calculation procedure as 1 or 2 or 3.

1 = Pro – Rata (Proportionate): Ex: If the customer places order for 100 cases of material “X”, then customer receives 20 cases of same material as free. That means, the business can say that buy 100 and get 20. If the customer orders for 162 cases, then system automatically grants 32 cases as a free of cost (162x20/100 = 32 Cases).

2 = Unit of reference: When customer orders for 100 cases of material “X”, then the customer receives an additional 20 cases as a free of goods. That means business can say that buy 100 get 20 free by granting 200 free for every full of 100 cases. The customer places order for 162, then system automatically grants only 20 cases(100x20/100=20).

3 = Whole unit: When a customer places order for 100 cases of material “X”, then the customer receives additional 20 cases of material “X” as a free of goods item. The business can say that buy 100 and get 20 free of charge items. If the customer orders for increment of 100 that means 200 (100 + 100) items, then he gets 40. If he placed the order for 101 – 199 items he gets only ZERO

Hope you understand .

If you want any further clarification, please let me know.

Patchala.
