Rebates Conditions with Multiple Validity Dates

[Former Member]

We have a customer that has a 1 year rebate agreement but the rate changes quarterly. Any suggestions on how to change the rate quarterly. Everything I have tried ties the Validity Period on the Condition directly to the Validity Perion on the Agreement.

Thank You

But you can change the rate in change mode of agreement created. If there are more agreements, I think this is tedious to change manually. Regarding userexits or other means I have no idea at this point.

Shall share once I have any kind of information.

Thank you for your response. I am somewhat familiar with this enhancement, although we are not using it. Do you know if it will give us the ability to have multiple validity dates at the condition level?

Thank You

Hi pam,

Extended Rebate Processing

Use

The SAP Beverage Extended Rebate Processing component is an enhancement of the standard SAP R/3 rebate processing.

You can use Extended Rebate Processing to process business transactions that are typical for and occur frequently in the beverage industry. This includes indirect sales, which are a frequent practice in the beverage industry.

Indirect sales are sales activities in which the rebate-relevant sales do not take place directly between the rebate granter and the rebate recipient. In the terms of the SAP R/3 System, this means the system does not use customer billing documents to update sales.

In the SAP Beverage Extended Rebate Processing component, you can model and settle the rebate for each specific article. The system allocates the defined rebate levels to the individual articles and provides a wide range of analyses in SAP CO-PA.

The standard SAP R/3 System only supports a single rebate recipient for each agreement. The SAP Beverage Extended Rebate Processing component has been enhanced to support multiple rebate recipients in a rebate agreement. This applies especially to customer hierarchies.

The SAP Beverage Extended Rebate Processing component enables you to settle rebate agreements periodically. Individual periods are settled like individual agreements in this case.

Implementation Considerations

The SAP Beverage Pendulum List component is an enhancement to Extended Rebate Processing. The pendulum list enables you to process indirect sales. The SAP Beverage Pendulum List component provides tools for automatic data import. For more information, refer to the SAP Beverage Pendulum List component.

This documentation describes the special features of the extended rebate, compared to the standard SAP R/3 rebate. For more information, please refer to the standard SAP R/3 component Rebate Processing.

Integration

Extended Rebate Settlement is integrated in SAP Profitability Analysis (CO-PA). SAP Profitability Analysis supports the article-specific update of the so-called "customer rebate", for example. The system provides detailed information directly after settlement.

Features

A variable key in the rebate information structure provides more flexibility during rebate settlement.

When the rebate information structure is updated, certain data from the billing documents can be added to the variable key. The system copies this data to the billing document when it generates the credit memo. This enables you, for example, to add the articles that resulted in the rebate to the credit memo, instead of the material for settlement. The partners from the billing documents can also be copied, which makes it possible to allocate multiple rebate recipients to a single condition.

Periodic settlement of rebate agreements.

Instead being limited to periodical partial settlements that always consider the entire validity period of an agreement, you can now also perform partial settlements that only take individual periods for settlement into account. As a result, individual periods are settled like individual agreements. This applies especially to the use of scales and fixed amounts.

Processing of indirect rebate agreements.

The use of pro forma billing documents makes indirect data available for rebate processing. You can use special pricing procedures and condition formulas to use plan data for forming accruals and actual data for rebate settlement.

Credit memo requests unnecessary.

The system generates billing documents (credit memos) immediately during settlement.

Constraints

The SAP Beverage Extended Rebate Processing component is a new function in SAP Beverage. The SAP Beverage Extended Rebate Processing component replaces the following SAP Beverage rebate versions:

Rebates: Enhancement Beverages u2013 (SAP Beverage BEV02).

Rebates: Enhancement Beverages (old) u2013 (up to SAP R/3 4.5B and SAP Beverage BEV01).

The earlier rebate versions are only relevant for migration customers, and will not be described in detail below. We recommend using the SAP Beverage Extended Rebate Processing component exclusively.

To avoid inconsistencies in your datasets, you must never configure settings/values in the following SAP Easy Access folders at the same time:

Extended Rebate Processing

Rebates: Enhancement Beverages

Rebates: Enhancement Beverages (old)

Also make sure that you use either the SAP Beverage Extended Rebate Processing or the standard SAP R/3 Rebate Processing component.
