Rebate Agreement to be closed

[Former Member]

HI All,

One more issue related to rebate agreements.

User has made partial rebate settlement. Now business wanted to close the rebate agreements though balance accruals are avaialble, but business decided not to pay any more whatever is left. But all Rebate agreements status are showing "Open"

The rebate agreements validity period is in past means valid from 01.01.2011 to 31.03.2011.

Could you suggest how to close the Rebate agreements.

Thanks in advance for your inputs.

Regards,

Vamsi.

Hi Vamsi

In the rebate agreement,as the valid date is in past only so change the Agreement Status to D and as you dont want to pay the balance accurals to the customer so you do fiinal settlement and then cancel the credit memo document so that there wont be any problem in the Accounting also

Hi Vamsi,

Check the below white paper on rebates which gives you good knowledge on Rebates.

http://www.erpgenie.com/publications/saptips/052005.pdf

Check the page 29 below is the text from it.

For your question

The rebate agreements validity period is in past means valid from 01.01.2011 to 31.03.2011.

The final settlement credit memo request uses the last day of the agreement validity period as the billing date. You can create it manually or via the same batch job (RV15C001) with which we can create periodic partial settlements.

If a rebate agreement already has invoices applied against it and you want to cancel the agreement, select u201CAgreement-Deleteu201D from the Rebate Agreement Overview screen. The agreement will not be physically deleted, but set to a status of u201CCu201D, and it will automatically create a final settlement credit memo request that will reverse all outstanding accruals. This can also be done if partial settlements were already processed for this rebate agreement.

HI Mokirala,

Thanks a lot for your help.

I have explored to other options and sovled the issue. As business doestn want to do final settlement and again cancelling the credit memo, hence suggested the solution as below.

1. Change mode of rebate agreement u2013 T code-> VBO2

2.Set status on u201CBu201D

3. Push button

4. Mark the all amounts and create the credit memo request

5. VA02 -> Go into credit memo request

6. Go into conditions tab and overwrite the first condition Z4R2 - with the value 0,00

7. Do it for all other items.

8. Check on the first page if the whole credit note request has the value zero

9. Take away or remove the billing block

10. Go sales document --> Billing

11. Create credit note ( check if the value still zero)

12. Check the rebate agreement status ( should be D) and sales volume should be zero.

Thanks a lot for you all for sharing your ideas..

Cheers,

HI Srinath,

Tried to change status to "B" and system not allowing to carry out final settlement due to past periods.

I changed dates and the same issue seen.

if you want to close the agreement you have to do the final settlement for that,if you don't want to pay the settlement amount to the customer first do the final settlement and then cancel the credit note.

Hi Vamsi

In the rebate agreement, change the valid end date to current date and then do the final settlement.Once the credit memo is generated then cancel that credit memo.
