Use

If you wish to monitor the delivery dates of a material which is not subject to value-based inventory management (e.g. samples), you can create a zero-value purchase order for the material.

You create a zero-value PO in the same way as you create one that has a value. However, you additionally set the Free of charge indicator in the item overview. See Creating a Purchase Order - Without a Master Record

The system will then set the net price of the PO item to 0 and cancel the IR (invoice receipt) indicator on the item overview screen. (The indicator is automatically set in the standard system.)

The system will not now accept any incoming invoices relating to this purchase order.
