Cannot perform final settlement of a rebate agreement

Dear experts,
When I try to perform final settlement of a rebate agreement, error "Final settlement is not possible. (There are still open documents)" encountered.
Is it due to there are some open billing documents related to the payer of the agreement?
If yes:
I have checked there is a billing document (cancel of credit memo) not yet released to account, which created half a year before.
And it is not possible to open the financial period back to half year ago.
Is there any way to delete this billing document?
Thanks.

Hi
So as the system is giving error , just run VBOX  to update the old documents
As you said that there are open documents then just either reverse those documents and then do final settlement or just forward it to FI those open documents
Another option is go to VBO2 and maintain manually the agreement status as B and save the rebate agreement then the credit memo for final settlement will be released

  • Rebate Agreement , Final settlement credit memo request is rejected

    Hi Friends,
    When we go for final settlement of a rebate agreement we create a final settlement request. After doing so the agreement status becomes "C" and once we create the credit memo for this request the status of agreement moves to  "D".
    My Problem is there are few agreement wherein the final settlement request is craeted but rejected and these agreement are stuck in "C" status.
    I want to push these agreements into "D" status. I am not able to find some way to do that . Need your help ?

    Hi Ranjeet,
    May be you can have a program to check status of the agreement, and update the agreement status to move from C to D , once you have the program this can be placed in SM35 as background job.
    Pls c if  this can give u some idea..

  • Automatic final settlement of rebates without payment screen

    When we final settle SAP rebate agreements with payment screen (where we have to specify the final settlement amount) everything is working fine. But when we attemept to final settle the rebate agreement WITHOUT using the payment screen (all the accurals have to be paid to the rebate recepient), I am facing the following issues
    1. SAP gives a message saying credit memo request is created, but there is no credit memo request number in the pop-up screen
    2. When I do a VA03 it shows a default credit memo request number (doc number moves as per the number range), which I can not display the document because SAP gives error saying the document is not in the database.
    3. When I go back to the rebate agreement there are NO changes to it - status is still in "Open" (changed to 'B' during final settlement). I try again final settle it automatically without payment screen and face all the above problems again.
    But if I final settle the same rebate agreement using paymentscreen by specifying a payment amount everything works fine. Is it a bug in the program (or) am I missing something? Please let me know. Thanks

    Hi Dhanaraj
    Please check whether some user exits/enhancements have been implemented for your standard program?
    Also you can take help from ABAPed to check the program in debug mode for such behaviour.  Even after that if problem persists then you can call SAP on it.

    HiI
    f you set this selection field then the settings in the ERD Setting column for this currency type are no longer relevant. The system calculates and posts exchange rate differences between order-related goods receipts and invoices not just for materials with standard price, but also for:
    Materials with moving average price
    Account-assigned transactions
    Planned delivery costs
    The valuation of the inventories or consumption is effectively done at the exchange rate for the goods receipt, and not at the exchange rate of the invoice. When you post the good receipts, the fixed exchange rate from the purchase order is not used, but the translation of the purchase order values to local currency is always done at the posting date of the goods receipt.
    If you are using the material ledger with actual costing, the system does not include the posted exchange rate differences at period-end closing in the actual prices of the materials.

  • Settling of rebate agreement : Accrual not reversed

    Hi experts,
    I've quite a strange problem when i make a final settlement of a rebate agreement :
    The accrual are not reversed but are counted twice.
    I.e. I've an accrual of 100u20AC for a rebate agreement, when i settle it, it didn't go to 0 but to 200u20AC.
    When I make a partial settlement, the accrual is well reversed.
    The document types are the same for partial and final settlement.
    VKOA is correct and all FI document are posted correctly.
    Has someone an idea?
    Thanx

  • Rebate agreement-Difference coming for credit note value and drill down value .

    Hello Friends,
    In 2013 we had created one rebate for which the validity period was 1st April 2013 to 31st March 2014 . At the end of each month, rebate amount was settled by raising credit note to the customer . Now at the end of March'14 during final settlement, a credit note was raised to the customer . The issue here is there is difference of 1.13 (Pounds) between credit note value and the drill down value for March'14 . Lets say our credit note value is-100 (Pounds)and Drill down value for the month March'14 is 101.13 Pounds. We are not able to find out why this difference is coming . Please let me know your inputs on this .
    Regards,
    Sandeep G. 

    Sandeep -
    During final settlement of a rebate agreement, it calculates rebate amout for the the entire time period less payments already made to a customer and then issues a credit memo request based on that.Please check all the the invoices created during entire period and check accrual calculation.It should match.
    You can check VBOX table to get billing documents for the entire period.
    Let us know if you still have an issue.

  • Rebate agreements / Rebate condition type

    Hi Experts,
    Can anyone tell me how to process Rebate agreements/Rebate condition types in pricing procedure.Please help me by giving step to step description for rebate condition type and where to maintain condition records and how they function.
    Thanks in advance experts,
    Kanna Palle.

    Hi ,
    find some notes on rebates.
    in the billing document, the rebates are calculated as per the the accrual rates in rebates condition records. My question if the invoice is for Rs 100 and accrual rebate amt in invoice is rs 2. will the customer pay Rs 98 against this invoice of full Rs 100.
    Ans --> Customer need to pay Rs 100 only , rebate amount will paied to the customer after completion of the rebate duration in between there will be partial settlement.
    2) what happens during manual accruals. why a credit memo request is generated during manual accruals. what happens to accruals as per condition records.
    Ans--> Manual Accruals
    Use
    Posting accruals manually can be useful in different situations such as:
    Lump sum payments
    Accruals correction
    You can control at which time and for which amount the accruals should be posted.
    You can build accruals for a particular condition record or reverse them in part or in full.
    When you save the rebate agreement, the system will automatically create a credit memo request. The system uses this document to create a credit memo. When the credit memo is released, the accruals are posted to FI.
    If you have posted accruals manually, but these have not been passed on to financial accounting, the manual accruals and manual payments in the rebate agreement are blocked.
    3) what happens during partial settlement. do the accruals already poested gets reduced to the extent of amount of partial settlement. do manaul accruals have any role to play during partial settlement
    Ans->Partial Settlement
    Use
    You can also partially settle a rebate agreement during its validity period. The amount to be paid can be limited in Customizing for Sales. Payments can be:
    limited to the cumulative accruals of the condition record
    limited to the amount that would be paid if final settlement were presently carried out
    unlimited
    You carry out partial settlement by using the manual payment screen within rebate agreement processing. On this screen you can specify the amount to be paid for each condition record.
    The system will automatically create a credit memo request for the amounts specified.
    It will also reverse the accruals with the credit memo if the rebate agreement type is configured accordingly. If the payment exceeds the recordu2019s accumulated accruals, the system will only reverse the accruals which are actually there.
    The system gives you the opportunity to carry out additional partial settlements when previous partial settlements remain open in the form of credit memo requests or credit memos. The system always takes open documents into account when determining the maximum amount which you can pay.
    When the system carries out final settlement for a rebate agreement, it takes all partial payments into account.
    4) what happens during final settlement. do manual accruals have any role to play during final settlement i.e. do they get reversed and what happens to accurals posted as per rebate condition records.
    Ans-->Final settlement
    Use
    When you carry out final settlement of a rebate agreement, the system automatically
    calculates the rebate based on the sales volume statistics or the lump sum
    deducts any previously paid rebates
    It then creates a credit memo request, and proposes the end date of the agreement validity period as the billing date.
    The system also reverses any accruals that have been posted.
    Depending on Customizing, when the system creates a credit memo request, the document is automatically blocked for billing. After approving the credit memo request, the person responsible can remove the billing block. You can then create the final credit memo.
    When you want to search for credit memo requests during sales order processing, you can use the match code F "Credit memo request for rebate".
    You can carry out final settlement of rebate agreements
    automatically
    Manually
    as a background task (in batch)
    Settling Single Rebate Agreements
    You can carry out settlement directly from within a rebate agreement.
    Before you save the rebate agreement you can still carry out changes to the credit memo request:
    The credit memo request is only saved when you save the rebate agreement.
    Carrying out Final Settlement as a Background Task
    If the volume of your sales rebate processing is high, you can collectively process rebate settlements as a background task.
    The following reports are available:
    RV15C001
    RV15C002
    Your system administrator can use these reports to generate a list of rebate agreements, based on various selection criteria, such as rebate recipient, status of the agreement, and so on.
    Background processing can then be carried out later. I.e., after the regular posting periods.
    After a list is generated, the rebate agreements can be analyzed or processed for payment.
    For more information about settling rebates as a background task, see your system administrator.
    Best regards,

  • Rebate Agreement's final settlement includes invoices already processed

    Hello,
    I've been testing rebate agreement functionality and I'm facing this issue:
    If I define a rebate agreement for a customer just for this day and post two invoices, this invoices are referred to the agreement. After this I do the final settlement for this agreement, credit memo is posted and everything is ok.
    Then I define another agreement for the same customer and just for this day again. The next invoice I post is referred to this new agreement. But the problem is that once I do the final settlement of this second agreement it includes the invoices of the first agreement.
    I need to know if there is something I've been missing?

    Rebate Agreement issue on sales volume

  • Rebates agreements (extremely urgent)

    Dear SAP experts,
    I need your help in rebate agreements (RA).
    I have setup the condition tables for RAs to accept Sales Area, ship-to, and EAN (MARA-EAN11) as combination. Together with material determination table, it does a mapping/substitution whenever I create a sales order which works like a charm to map to the access sequences and conditions I have created.
    However, there is an issue with this setup. Each EAN can actually map to multiple MARA-MATNR (material numbers) depending on the MATNR lifecycle (i.e. 1 EAN to M MATNR).
    For instance, EAN 123456 can have material abc assigned to it today, but due to a product being pulled out of market, business reuses that EAN 123456 and assigns it to another MATNR later on. To ensure that the right EAN-MATNR combination happens at a time, the material determination table (MDT) was used as an approach.
    However, when I create RAs with condition type Sales Area, ship-to, and EAN (MARA-EAN11)  combination, the "material for settlements" field is required as input. As the "material for settlements" field is KONP-BOMAT with check table MARA, it is not possible for me to put in EAN for the material as it requires a MARA-MATNR field.
    One of the options I was thinking was to do a conversion using MDT prior to creation of RA. Note however that when the MDT data changes, there will be inconsistencies with what's happening in real life versus what was mapped: the RA's take the conversion from EAN -> MATNR based on the contents of the MDT at the point of RA creation, and do not get updated automatically even when other MATNR get assigned to the same EAN.
    My questions as follows:
    1. What is really the materials for settlement field? How does this field impact the creation of credit memos? How does this impact the settlements process?
    2. I would need to create an output report based on the rebates generated on EAN level. My understanding is that SAP is working on the MATNR level. Is there any way to go about this given the situation described above?
    3. Given that the data in the MDT changes against the FPC, is there any way to ensure that the EAN is the "key field" used for data processing in place of the MATNR field in the RA "material for settlement" field?
    4. Any advice on how EAN will impact RA creation, order, delivery, shipping, invoicing?
    Thanks a lot for your help in advance.

    hi
    Rebates Processs in SAP is divided into three components
    1) Configuring Rebates
    2) Setting Up Rebates
    3) Managing rebate agreeeements and payments
    Pre-requsiistes- Check the following:
    1.The payer partner needs toi have the rebate field checked in the customer master on the sales area-billing doc tab.
    2.The Billing type must be marked as relevant for rebates.
    3.The Sales Organisation must be marked as relevant for rebates.
    Condition Technique :
    Rebates, use the condition technique, but distinguish themselves from pricing in applying to transactions over time, versus on a transaction basis. Rebates have their wn field catalog and their own condition table naming convention.So you could have two condition table "001" one for pricing and one for rebates, which could have different key fields. You need to use the technical names A001 For pricing and KOTe001 for rebates when you use the query type using transaction SE 16..
    Use create access sequence (AS).  Enter 1 in field category for rebate specific.  AS after going thru the right path of maintaining access sequence for rebates.
    The big difference between the rebate and the pricing access sequence is that there is no exclsuion flag available for rebate related AS. This means multiple tables for an access sequence can be aplied at the same time.
    Rebate related condition types are identified by codnition class -C.
    After defining and creating condition types for rebated include them in the pricing proceedure. The requirement should be 24 here which implies that the accruals are calculated on the basis of invoice/bill.
    The other fields- alctyp and altcbv does not allow you to manipulate how a rebate is calculated. Also, remove the requiremnt 24, if u want to see reabtes at order time.
    Now payment of rebates:
    Payments can be maunal or in full settlement. When you do manual payments, it defines how much can be paid out during a partial settlemetn.  You use partial settlement only when rebate agreement is defined for a full year but the paoyouts are supposed to happen on a monthly, quarterly or anyother specified period.
    These accurals are based on sales volume and when they are posted billing is created int eh follwoing manner. Provision for accruals is debited and Sales revenue is credited. When rebate credit memo is created
       Customer account/ is debited and
       Accrual provision account is credited.
    Also, please note that when rebates are created without dependent ona material but on customer/material you need to refer to a material for settlement.
    Rewards point it helps

  • Rebate Final Settlement with 0 payment

    Hi,
    I have been looking into the process of how to close out old agreements so that nothing more will post to them and remove open accruals.  I was using the icons Final Settlement and Execute Settlement for this purpose.   The Excecute Settlement can be used to enter the amount you wish to pay out on the agreement at the time of closing.  However it wont let me put 0 in if we just want to clear out open accruals and make no further payment on the rebate upon closing it.
    I have found information on the SAP library stating the following options which sounds exactly what I need to happen however I cannot see where I can "click Change Status in the assignment block Item in the rebate agreement, and for single items if you click Change Status in the item details"
    - the only Status I can see on the agreement is in the front screen of VBO2 in the control data secton of the agreement called "Agreement Status" and none of the options below are listed.
    Can someone tell me how to access the status described below or how I should find it?
    Thanks for your help
    SAP Library Info
    You have released the rebate agreements that you want to settle. You release a rebate agreement by setting a final release status. You can set the following final release statuses for all agreement items if you click Change Status in the assignment block Item in the rebate agreement, and for single items if you click Change Status in the item details:
    ○       Release All Items for Final Settlement /Release Item for Final Settlement
    Set this status to release items for final settlement.
    After final settlement, a settlement document is generated, rebates are paid out, accruals are resolved and the items are closed.
    ○       Cancel All Items Without Recall / Cancel Item Without Recall
    Set this status to release items for final settlement at a value of zero without recalling any rebates that have already been paid out.
    After final settlement, a settlement document with a value of zero is generated, no rebates are paid out, accruals are resolved, and the items are closed.
    ○       Cancel All Items With Recall / Cancel Item With Recall
    Set this status to release items for final settlement at a value of zero with a recall of rebates that have already been paid out.
    After final settlement, debit memos for all rebates already paid out for the items are generated and sent to the customer, accruals are resolved and the items are closed.

    Hello Tracey,
    You can simply maintain rebate agreement status as B - Agreement released for settlement in your desired rebate agreement for closure or not in use for future.
    Hope this can assist you.
    Thanks & Regards

  • Return process in case of final settlement of rebate

    Hi.
    I have mapped the rebate process which is working fine.But suppose i have carried out final settlement of rebate agreement and material is return by customer which has the rebate impact on it.
    In this case suppose material is return, the rebate agreement also get updated even though final settlement is carried out by some amount.
    this is nothing but the amount which customer as to pay back to the company....right
    In this case how should i process so that i can nullify the return rebate amount impact(This is case when validity period is valid)
    And how should i process if validity period is over of that agreement because inthis case no amount will be updated in agreement.
    Thank you

  • Rebate agreement was manuelly processed and Settled But Accruals are still

    Dear SDN Team,
    Can you please advice how to resolve the below issue as seems it was very critical.
    The problem is below:
    Rebate Agreement was created and it was settled manually completely.  Once it was settled it was created the Rebate Credit Note.  But Still the accrual is seen in Rebate agreement even the Final settlement is done with status "D".
    Looking for your advice in order to resolve this problem.
    The issue is critical - auditing is going on for years end closing
    Thanks and Regards,
    Jai

    Hi
    The accrual would not get posted back to the rebate once you create the final settlement request. The system makes the rebate non editable after this and changes the status to D (settled). The way out is as follows:
    1. Make credit memos item as zero and then post the credit memo for zero.
    2. Create a new rebate agreement with reference to the old one. Everything (conditions, recipient, validity, customers) would get copied.
    3. Once copied save it and run VBOF. The accruals would be re posted once again. (No manual accruals can be reposted though- only accrual through actual invoices).
    4. Settle the rebate for the correct amount.
    Regards

  • Final settlement of Rebates

    Dear Members
    When i record a rebate agreement in SAP 4.6C, then after the sales process-delivery , billing and account determination i am able to do both Partial (manual ) and Final settlements.
    But in 4.7, for final settlement system shows the message" Sales volumes are not Current" and suggest that i need to use OSS note for correcting this. Do i have to activate any info-structure
    Please suggest me right solution
    Thanks in advance
    Regards

    Hi,
    Usually this message would come if rebate agreement is created retroactively.That means that a rebate agreement is created for which the validity start date lies in the past.
    Try running the VBOF transaction code for the agreement number for which sales volume needs to be updated.
    Enter the validity date as 31.12.9999
    Enter the sales area.
    Posting date as today's date.
    Check Error flag box and choose Drill down processing.
    Uncheck the control boxes.
    Try if this helps you.
