Creating Rebate Agreements 

Use

Now you enter data for the rebate agreement. You define the runtime of the agreement and the recipient of the rebate payment. Sales organization 1020 uses a three-level product hierarchy (main group, group, subgroup). The rebate agreement is based on the sales volume for a product from a specific group (for example, paint, underlay). Different rebate percentages apply to these groups. You define these individual agreements in this step.

    12. The rebate agreement consists of two individual agreements, which are defined using the condition records. Once the requirements defined in the condition records have been met in the billing document, the rebate basis for the relevant condition record is increased by the billed value.

    Both individual rebate agreements determine that the sales volumes for the RIWA store chain should be taken into account. The R/3 System represents the RIWA store chain as a customer hierarchy. The highest hierarchy level is the customer number specified in the condition record (here 6000). The sales volume figures (used later for the rebate) include both the sales volume reached by customer 6000 and the sales volumes of all customers assigned to customer 6000 in the hierarchy.

    The conditions are also based on the volume for a product from a specific group (00110000105 = paint; 0011000110 = primer). Different rebate percentages apply to these groups. The percentages are scaled according to value.

    19. The percentage of accruals determines that an accrual of the unpaid bonus payment is posted in financial accounting for each billing document. In profitability analysis this amount is displayed in the value field VV090 bonus. Because of the scaling the rate that will be used in end-of-period rebate, isn't determined yet. The percentage with which the accruals are posted in the billing documents is therefore an estimated value. For both individual rebate agreements you assume, that an average value in the sales grading will be achieved at the end of the validity period. With this assumption you determine the percentage of accruals.
