Procedure Description

FREE Free Goods

Select Procedure FREE then click Control data

Step Cntr Ctyp

10 10 FREE

V/N6 - Activate Free Goods Determination

Assign Order Type OR with Document Procedure A with Procedure FREE

VBN1 - Create free goods determination

e.g. FREE inclusive

Material Min qty From are free good Calc Rule Free Goods

5 3 1 1 1

In this example, if you create a Sales Order for a quantity of 10, SAP will prompt you 7 as the customer order qty and 3 will be free. Customer only pay for the 7 quantity.

There are certain limitations for free goods...

- Free goods can only be supported on a 1:1 ratio. This means that an order item can lead to a free goods item. Agreements in the following form are not supported: ‘With material 1, material 2 and material 3 are free of charge‘ or ‘If material 1 and material 2 are ordered at the same time, then material 3 is free of charge‘.

- Free goods are not supported in combinations with material structures (for example, product selection, BOM, variants with BOM explosion).

- Free goods are only supported for sales orders with document category C (for example, not quotations).

- Free goods are not supported for deliveries without reference to a sales order.

- Free goods cannot be used in make-to-order production, third-party order processing and scheduling agreements.

- If you defined a free goods for variants in a generic article (only SAP Retail), you can only process the variants in the purchase order and goods receipt individually (as single articles). In other words, you cannot process them using the generic article matrix.

Free goods is currently only supported on a 1:1 basis. This means that an order item can only be the source of one free goods item. This means that agreements involving relationships such as 'Buy material 1 and get material 2 and material 3 free of charge' or 'Order material 1 and material 2 together and get material 3 free of charge' are not supported.

Inclusive

The customer only pays for a part of the goods required. The rest of the goods are free. This is called Inclusive free goods and means that part of the purchase quantity is designated as free goods and is not billed.

The material supplied as free goods always has the same unit of measure as the purchased quantity.

Of ten bottles of wine, two are designated as free goods. If you order ten bottles, then ten are delivered but you are not billed for two of them. You have received inclusive free goods

Hi you can give the Free good of 1 material if he purchases 50 using an inclusive option free goods , but the senario where the customer needs to buy A + B + C then you give D as free of charge is quite not possible in SAP current version.

hope this solves your query
