You can find quantity details for the master record and document in the notesunder the “Free goods - Calculation Rule” diagram.
Business Example• Free goods play a large role in price negotiations with your customers.• As a result, you want to be able to determine free goods and place them
in sales documents automatically.• You are responsible for automating determination of free goods, bearing in

Unit 18: Free Goods TSCM60
Free goods can be part of the order quantity not included in the invoice. This iscalled an inclusive bonus quantity. The ordered goods and the free goods both
involve the same material. The quantity units of the free goods and ordered goodsmust be the same.
Free goods can also take the form of extra goods that are free of charge. Theseare called exclusive bonus quantities.
In exclusive bonus quantities, the extra goods are delivered free of charge andare not included in the invoice. This can either be an additional quantity of thegoods ordered or it can be another article.
The exclusive free goods appear in the sales document as a separate, free-of-chargeitem.
Figure 225: Free Goods in the Sales Order
Both forms of free goods are handled in the same way in the sales order. Thematerial that has been ordered is entered as a main item and the free goods materialis automatically displayed as a sub-item.
The item category determines how the item is controlled later in the business
process (for example, for delivery or pricing). Item categories TAN and TANNare used in the standard SAP system. The system determines the free goodsautomatically by accessing the relevant condition records. The system thenaccesses the free goods master record with the pricing date.
As in earlier releases, you can also enter free goods manually by entering data inthe higher-level item and item category fields ( TANN). In this case however,the system does not refer to the free goods master record, and settings such asautomatic reduction of the main item quantity for inclusive quantities or certaincontrols for the delivery are not available.

TSCM60 Lesson: Free Goods
The system re-reads the free goods master record in the sales order if the quantitiesin the main item change or if the pricing date changes. The system then deletes the
sub-items and re-creates them. Any manual changes to the free goods quantityare lost.
If pricing is re-run in the sales order, it does not affect the free goods determination.
Figure 226: Free Goods - Master Data
The condition technique is used for free goods. Free goods are generally regardedas a supplement to the pricing agreement for a material.
You maintain the free goods in the master records for sales by:
• Using a different menu entry• Going to Prices and Discounts/surcharges when maintaining the master
records
You can define master records for free goods at any level - for example, material,customer / material, price list category / currency / material or customer hierarchy/ material.
You can restrict master records for one level in many different ways:
• Validity period: The condition is only valid within this period.• Minimum quantity: The condition comes into affect when this quantity has
been exceeded• Calculation rule: see next slide• Scales
You can process different master data with the same key for inclusive andexclusive bonus quantities at the same time. You only need to press a button toswitch between the two types of discount.

Unit 18: Free Goods TSCM60
When you enter an exclusive bonus quantity, an extra entry line appears whereyou can enter the goods item if it is not the same as the ordered material.
Figure 227: Free Goods - Calculation Rule
When you specify a calculation rule, you decide how the system determines thefree goods quantity from the additional and document quantities.
• The free goods quantity is the quantity from which the discount is calculated(not the minimum quantity).
• The additional quantity is the quantity delivered free-of-charge.• The document quantity is the quantity entered by the person creating the
sales order.Three calculation rules are provided in the standard system. The followingexample describes how they work:
You offer supply 20 units of free goods for a free goods quantity of 100 units.
The customer orders 162 units (document quantity).
• Rule 1 Prorated: 32 units of free goods [ 162*(20/100) = rounded down ]• Rule 2 Related to units: 20 units of free goods [ 100*(20/100) = rounded
down ]• Rule 3 Whole units: 0 units free goods [ 162 is not a complete unit of 100]
Calculation rules are stored in the system in the form of ABAP/4 code.
You can also define your own rules (transaction VOFM, under menu entry,formulas).

Figure 228: Free Goods - Analyses and Accounting
You can see detailed information about free goods in Accounting or analyses.
Revenues, sales deductions and costs of free goods can be transferred toAccounting in different ways, shown in the examples below. (MIt = main item,SIt = sub-item)
• Scenario 1 (SAP standard system)
MIt: Not influenced by free goodsSlt: Pricing de-activated, calculation price (VPRS) configured as costs
• Scenario 2
MIt: Not influenced by free goods
SIt: Pricing activated for item category TANN with characteristic B (in pricing procedure,
condition type R100 - 100% discount - is activated by condition 55 at level819), discount is transferred as sales deduction and the calculation price(VPRS) as costs.
• Scenario 3
MIt: Cumulation of calculation price for lower-level item configured at mainitem level (in copying control Delivery → Billing document), cumulatedcalculation price transferred as costs
SIt: Pricing deactivated

Figure 229: Free Goods - Condition Technique
The condition technique provides greater flexibility for using the free goodsfunctions.
The system uses the information about the sales areas, document determination procedure (from the sales document type) and customer determination procedure(from the customer master) to determine the free goods procedure.
The procedure contains a list of the condition types for free goods.
One access sequence (search strategy) is assigned to each condition type. Eachaccess sequence consists of one or more accesses.
Each access contains exactly one condition table. This represents the search keythat the system uses to search for a valid master record.
If the search is successful, the system generates a sub-item for the free goods inthe document. The item category is assigned with the item category usage FREE.
Pricing for both items is controlled with the item category as normal.
You can activate an analysis of the free goods determination in the sales document.The system then displays detailed information on how the free goods weredetermined.
