Changing Commission Contracts

Use

You can change existing commission contracts.

Prerequisites

Commission contracts have already been created.

Procedure

Enter the contract number for the contract to be changed in the contract number field.The system displays the assigned commission contract partner.

Use the input help (F4) to select the appropriate change reason.

Versioning attributes: You can change the effectively valid from field, which is defaulted with the current date, and the effectively valid to field.

Version template: The system uses the corresponding contract versions in the standard system as a value template. These versions are valid at the effectively valid from time spot. However, you can specify a different contract version for the value template if required.

Assign the commission contract to a standard commission contract.

By entering a standard contract number, you assign each commission contract to a standard commission contract. If you need to, search for the number using the input help (F4). In the input help you can display standard contracts depending on, for instance, the contract type selected.

If you do not wish to make an assignment, leave the entry field blank. The old standard contract number is adopted.

You can only enter one standard contract number that is valid at the time you make the entry. The standard contract number also defines the contract type (such as full-time employee , agent , and so on). This information is displayed to you when you enter the standard contract number.

Once you have assigned a commission contract to a standard commission contract, the system also checks whether the assignment of the business partner type and the desired commission contract type is permitted.
