This scope item covers the subsequent settlement of rebate conditions agreed upon with customers. You use condition contracts to enter the rebate conditions, together with the process control parameters, business volume selection criteria, and settlement dates for partial and final settlement. You can create condition contracts for one customer or multiple customers.
Customer invoices are used to determine the business volume. In the case of multiple customers, the individual revenue of each customer assigned is used to calculate the settlement values. To pay out rebates to customers, you create settlement documents.
Settlement documents are usually immediately released to accounting. You can also create a two-step condition contract to collect and post settlement documents of different condition contracts in one journal entry to accounting.
Furthermore, you can choose how the system determines the taxation for the settlement items.
