• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message V2105 - Item &1 is a free goods sub-item and is not copied ?

  The SAP error message V2105 indicates that the item in question is a free goods sub-item and is not being copied in the sales document. This typically occurs in the context of sales order processing, where free goods are defined as items that are provided at no charge when certain conditions are met (e.g., buy X, get Y free).
  Cause:
  The error arises because:
  
  The item is classified as a free goods sub-item, which means it is not intended to be sold or charged to the customer.
  The system is trying to copy this item into a document (like a sales order or delivery) where it is not applicable or allowed.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check Item Configuration:
  
  Verify the configuration of the item in question. Ensure that it is correctly set up as a free goods item in the material master or pricing procedure.
  
  
  
  Review Sales Document:
  
  Check the sales document type and ensure that it allows for free goods items. Some document types may not support free goods.
  
  
  
  Adjust Copy Control Settings:
  
  Review the copy control settings between the sales document types. Ensure that the settings allow for the copying of free goods items if that is the intended behavior.
  
  
  
  Manual Entry:
  
  If the free goods item is not meant to be copied automatically, you may need to enter it manually in the sales document after the other items have been processed.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific details on handling free goods items in your version of SAP.
  
  
  
  Check User Exits or Enhancements:
  
  If there are any custom developments (user exits, enhancements) that affect the copying of items, review them to ensure they are not causing the issue.
