<b>bonus buy</b>

Sales transaction in which special conditions are granted when certain products are bought together.

The conditions can be special prices, fixed discounts, percentage discounts or free-goods discounts. Quantity-based and value-based scales can be created for the conditions.

A bonus buy can either be a multi-deal or a combination deal.

Bonus buy conditions are special conditions that only apply when certain prerequisites and requirements you define are met. For example, you could offer a reduced price if customers buy a certain quantity of particular articles together or if they pay using a credit card.

You can also use bonus buys in connection with coupons (see Promotion: Coupons and Bonus Buys).

Prerequisites

The articles to be included in a bonus buy must have been created using SAP Retail article maintenance. Moreover, EANs must be maintained for these articles.

Procedure

1. If necessary, you can create article groupings that also contain whole merchandise categories, promotions or layout areas.

For further information on article groupings, see Article Grouping.

2. You create a bonus buy condition. In doing so you specify the following:

o whether you want the condition to be a fixed price, a fixed discount, a percentage discount or a free-goods discount.

o the article or grouping previously defined for which the system should grant the condition. You can also grant the condition on the basis of all the prerequisites or all the articles purchased together.

o which requirements are necessary for the bonus buy to be granted. This could be that the customer has to pay by customer card or that the value of the sale has to be over or under a certain amount.

o which prerequisites have to be met for a bonus buy to be granted. The customer usually has to buy a certain quantity of certain articles together or redeem a coupon. The articles involved can be single articles or articles belonging to a grouping you previously defined.

For further information on bonus buy conditions, see Bonus Buy Conditions.

3. You transfer the bonus buy conditions to the POS systems or the stores involved. To do this, you use the Direct Request for POS Outbound function.

You go to this function from the Article Grouping/Bonus Buy screen by choosing Edit POS outbound. For further information, see Preparing Master Data .

4. The POS’s then take the data transferred into consideration by analyzing all the articles scanned in one transaction and by determining whether the articles are being purchased in the relevant combination. If so, the special offer is granted.

If a bonus buy condition is granted at the point of sale, the POS system notes the bonus buy number in the sales data.

5. When the sales data is transferred to the POS inbound interface, R/3 takes the bonus buy conditions granted into account.

Result

You can offer your customers special bonus buys. R/3 knows if a bonus buy applies and automatically takes the special conditions into account.

Hi,

A TV set costs Rs.25000/- & a DVD player costs Rs.6500/-. If a customer is buying any one of the products then, he/she will have to pay as per the price mention.

In BONUS BUY what happens you are luring the customer to buy more products. So now when a customer buys a TV SET and if he/she is buying a DVD palyer also then, the DVD player will cost Rs.4000/-. So the customer payed Rs.2500/- less on the total amount of both the products. This is the basic explanation of Bonus Buy.

You can configure this in IMG-Sales & Distribution-basic functions-Bonus Buy.

Reward points if solution helps.

Hi,

BONUS BUY

Bonus buy is a functionality we use to give more than one material at a different rate than what we normally give them when they are sold together. Like if A is 15/- and B is 20/- when sold individually but when sold together, we can sell them at say 30/- which is at a reduced price.

Configuration follows the same condition technique where we create a condition table, an access sequence, a condition type, a pricing schema and activate that schema by assigning it to the required combination of sales area, cust price proc, doc price proc. After which finally, maintain the records using transaction code VBK1. Here give the condition type for which you want to maintain the condition records with proper selection of materials required to be sold as a combo deal.

Please Reward If Really Helpful,

Thanks and Regards,
