Rebate Processing for Customer group

Question

Hello Gurus,
I need to define a material rebate group agreement for a particular customer group ( abt 6000 Customers). How do i do it?
While creating a rebate agreement we have to mention the payer. In my case the payer is different for each customer.
Please let me know.
Warm Regards
Prashant Joshi.

Hi Prashant,
...During rebate settlement credit note, the system automatically defaults the payer from the rebate agreement.
Same is the case with customer hierarchy rebates.
Yes, this is default functionality when using standard rebates agreements.
That makes sense when all the rebate due is paid to a single customer (might be a purchasing central or a specific pay-to party).
In my case the payer is different for each customer.
OK, what you want to do is to send a different credit note to each customer.
You have 2 solutions:
- Define a different rebate agreement per payer (standard rebate agreements)
- Use only one extended rebate agreement to get the functionality you need.
Extended rebate agreements are special because they allow you to customize how the credit note is "splitted" between different partners and to which partner it is paid.
The benefit of an extended rebate agreement is that only one rebate agreement is maintained. Also scales take in account the whole sales volume!
