Hi Xperts,
I have a scenario for Rebate Management. I am using Standard SAP Rebate Scenario.
I have a scenario where the Sold-to Party (S) and Payer(P) are different in the Sales Documents which are determined from the Customer Master of Sold to Party. My requirement is to do the settlement to the Payer. My understanding says that the Rebate Agreement should have Payer(P) as the Rebate Recipient and it should work fine.
But the issue is, Payer(P) is just a payer. It has account group of only payer and not sold to party. So Rebate Agreement is not allowing to use Payer(P) as Rebate Recipient.
Business tried to create Rebate Agreement for Sold to Party(S). That also worked fine but when we do the settlement, it is giving the credit to Sold to Party as he is the rebate recipient in the Rebate Agreement.
But business is expecting that when the Credit Memo Request is being created, the sold to party is picked from Rebate Agreement and it should pick the payer from the customer master of the Sold to party, which is not happening. I think this is standard SAP and it work like this only.
Is there a possibility that if I create the Rebate Agreement for Sold to party and while creating Credit Memo Request, it should pick the payer from customer master of sold to party?
I hope my question is clear and not confusing.
Thanks a lot for valuable comments.
Regards,
HP
So Rebate Agreement is not allowing to use Payer(P) as Rebate Recipient.

Hello,
I am receiving message VP304.
Customer belongs to customer group ZPAY and thus cannot be the sold-to party
Message No. VP304
Diagnosis
The customer specified has an account group which cannot be used for sold-to parties.
System Response
The customer cannot be entered as a sold-to party as the system cannot determine whether all master data has been properly maintained.
Procedure
Using the partner function assignment for account groups, you can configure which account groups are permitted for sold-to parties.
Make the appropriate settings in Customizing if you have the authorization to do so.
If you do not, contact your system administrator.
Proceed
Thanks.

Hardik,
Yes, you are correct! When a settlement document (CMR) is created, the SP and PY are the rebate recipients. This is standard SAP behavior.
Therefore one of the customer master maintenance activity is to create/extend the rebate recipient as PY and SP before creating a rebate agreement with this customer.
The business need seems strange, in the rebate agreement it is "agreed" that incentives will be given to the rebate recipient, this is done by putting the recipient as payer. How then can the incentive be given to some other customer no. (which is also another PY in the SP)?

Hi Patel,
Its possible to pick to payer while creating the credit memo of rebate agreement,
You can try to do the change in the following function module in development system, and then test whether it fulfills your requirement and you may proceed accordingly
The rebate recipient is defined here as sold-to party,payer and ship-to party
