Extended Rebate functionality (and its use)

[Former Member]

Iu2019m currently working at an international customer with operations in Europe. They sell products in almost all countries in Europe, which are being sourced normally from one single plant.

They are using the intercompany billing process.

They are currently using the standard Rebate functionality, including Rebate settlement.

They are facing with an issue with the Rebate settlement process.

They setup the rebate agreement with an element of a material, e.g. the material pricing group, since the product portfolio is too large to use a material in the rebate agreement.

Normally a product is delivered from one source (one single plant), but occasionally the product will be delivered from another plant (in another country)

The issue in the rebate settlement is the proper determination of the tax code and therefore the proper tax percentage. This since the products can be from several source (delivering plant) in several countries.

It is impossible to create all combinations in a rebate agreement, including the delivering plant, since there could be over 30 of them.

We have already thought of the fact to include the material tax classification in the setup of the rebate agreement.

Currently we are looking at the following options

Implement Vistex u2013 a (fairly) expensive proposition

Do nothing u2013 this will mean, that the Finance department will need to use a (custom) BW report to make financial posting and Credit Memou2019s

Made enhancements in the current process u2013 this will mean a long time for analysis and a longer time to made the enhancement and even a longer time to properly test all changes.

Implement Extended Rebate functionality. We have been looking at this and have a couple of questions on this:

Can we turn on the extended rebate functionality for existing agreement types?

Should we create new agreement types and use Extended Rebate functionality on the new agreement types?

The configuration of the Variable keys u2013 are there any hidden u201Cissuesu201D we should be aware off?

Any comment, documentation, link to documentation, remark, suggestion is welcome.

Thanks and regards,

Hi Jan Pel,

Did manage to find a solution for your problem?
We are facing a similar issue but the situation is more difficult since we don't use standard sap to determine the tax. Instead we use an external system and due to this we don't have more than 2 tax codes maintained (they are meaningless really).

I'm also trying to understand the standard sap behavior for tax determination on the rebate settlements. Since the settlement is creating an item per condition record, how is the correct tax applied (and multiple documents/items created if different tax applicable). Is standard sap creating different settlement invoices/items in the settlement invoice if there are different tax codes in the underlying billing documents in scope of the rebate agreement?

I would appreciate your feedback.

Thanks and best regards,
Kevin
