Linking Sales Promotions to Statistical Internal Orders

[Former Member]

We have two kinds of promotions here.

a) Consumer Promotion - reduced price for a particular period

b) Trade Promotion - Free goods - buy 10 get one free.

We are creating these promotion through standard SAP route with a validity period, and these get populated in the sales order order correctly.

The promotionional expenses are borne by the supplier (vendor). To debit his account with the appropriate expenses, we have created Statistical Internal orders (SIO) in CO, one per supplier account.

(We have developed a report where we accumulate all the values dueing these two above promotions and manually pass a JV in finance in the SIO.This is a long circuitous process and we are exploring other alternativesto make the values flow directly to the SIO)

If you double click on the sales order item, and proceed to Account Assignment tab, you will see an order no., where you can select the (SIO) no., which we are doing manually.

I am unable to find any place in configuration of Sales Promotion/Sales Deal/ SIO (definition) through which I can default the SIO no. in the sales order, so that the values can flow automatically.

Please help if possible.

Thanks & Regards

I think that this is not possible.
