Rebate Credit memo

[Former Member]

Hello All..

I have problem related to Rebate

Situation is as follows:

A rebate agreement is created for a year with 2% of accruals at first stage and a partial payment is done. After some time we realised that accruals should have been at the rate of 1% instead of 2% and we made changes in the condition records of rebate agreement. At the time of final settlement system has generated a credit memo request for negative value which is correct because there was partial payment based in 2% of accruals and agreement is now with 1% accrual.

Actually as there is -ve value, system should generate debit note instead of credit note?

Analysis upto now -

The Agreement type has been assigned with a Credit Memo Request as "Final settlement".. So the system will surely create the Credit memo request. BUT, when there is -ve net price, how can we shift to Debit Memo Request? If the ABAP development is required, where and how can we control this ?

Thanks in advance for your help

The behaviour of the system is correct. Because the document is a credit memo, a positive value is considered to be a credit value. A positive value in Credit memo results in negative posting in accounting which means that it is credit. If the value in credit memo is negative, it actually means that it is a debit. So conceptually, you have to give customer a debit memo and in this case, there is a credit memo with a negative value. So conceptually you are correct.

Second point is that you can link an agreement only to a credit memo request /CM not to a debit memo.

Third point is the most important one. You should not change the percentage of the rebate agreement in between. If there is a change, you only have to close that agreement without settling. Create a new rebate agreement with past validity from date. And you have to reorganise the rebate index to consider the documents created in the past for this agreement. I think VBOF will help you on this.

Hope this info helps you

Hello Kunal,

Please note as given below :

As per the Customizing for rebates we can only issue Credit Note As per SAP Standard. As this an rare issue you settle the amount by creating an Debit note and Debit Memo to the customer.

Hi,

The document type used in final settlement is customized in the field 'Order type for final settlement credit memo request'

T6B1-AUART_B1 which can be changed via VB(2, no matter whether the value positive or negative is.

The BTE 00503201 is available for custom modification.

Thanks,

Alex
