We track promotional allowances in a similar manner. The PA is set up as a non inventory (credit) item and gets added to the order. What I would be tempted to do is set up a new item with the suffix P and for the BOM have the original item. I haven't used substitute items here so I don't know how they would be tracked in history, but it would seem that you might be able to have the new item number with the substitute of the original item. Just some ramblings before I take the kids out for their annual candy begging.

Then I can track what customers received this particular item. Item and order comments will let everyone know that this was a free item, inventory will be controlled through the IA transaction, and I can track the performance of the promotion to how many "free" items are shipped out.
