Rebate Settlement Accounting Postings

Hello
I am configuring extended rebate agreements.  In order to handle the rebate accruals, i have set up G/L account and provision account, maintained my price procedure with appropriate account key and accrual key.  Accruals work fine as follows
DEBIT G/L ACCT 420050
CREDIT ACCRUAL 122555
My issue is with settlement...partial or final.  I am using t-code rbt_enh_v7 to create the settlement docs.  I want the accounting to be like this
DEBIT ACCRUAL 122555
CREDIT PAYER CUSTOMER
If i set the agreements to always correct, my accounting on both partial and final settlements is
DEBIT ACCRUAL 122555
CREDIT G/L 420050
DEBIT G/L 420050
CREDIT PAYER CUSTOMER
If  i set my agreements to never correct, then i effect the partial settlement where
DEBIT G/L 420050
CREDIT PAYER CUSTOMER
And then the accruals are reversed with the final settlement.
Is there any way to set configuration so that when i settle, i simply debit accrual and credit customer without first reversing to the expense account or am i locked into this method of accounting with rebates?
Best regards

Hi Thomas,
Can you specify the example with amount?
To me:
"If i set the agreements to always correct, my accounting on both partial and final settlements is 
DEBIT ACCRUAL 122555
CREDIT G/L 420050
DEBIT G/L 420050
CREDIT PAYER CUSTOMER"
this serves your purpose since the same GL account is getting debited and credited so effect should be nil and net entry is what you want.

  • Account Determination Error for Rebate Settlements

    I have question on Account Determination for rebates
    Here are the entries that I have made in VKOA
    ERB - R201051
    ERU - R201051 / R120201
    ERS - R120201
    ERL - R559001
    I am able to accrue the money to right accounts, but I am getting an Account Determination error when processing rebate settlements
    Any input on this would be really helpful.
    Thank you!

    Hi Shailesh
    When you are getting the error in rebate settlements it means you carefully check
    all the combinations for VKOA settings. Whether the Account assignment
    group in all the Materials used in settlement document along with the customer account assignment group
    is maintained or not. Also check in the pricing procedure the account key used.
    For all these account key the settings are made in VKOA or not. Hope it will help you
    Thanks

  • Rebate settlements should not hit the VAT account

    Hello everyone,
    There is a question on Rebate Settlement.
    There is a customer who is entitled to a 15% BPR rebate.
    We are accruing for this rebate successfully
    The issue we are having is that the materials that this customer buy from us attract 20% VAT but when the customer claims back from us they do not claim the VAT component.
    We need to  be able to do rebate settlements that do not hit the VAT account.
    I ran a test in SAP on a sample rebate agreement but the only way I could get the rebate settlement to not hit a VAT account was to change a material to be not liable for tax and then settle against that material.
    Billing doc 1-Posts to VAT since the material is Tax inclusive
    Billing doc 2-Does not posts to VAT since the material is Tax exclusive
    Any of you aware of any other way to do this (perhaps using a payment type)??
    Kindly suggest,
    Regards
    Manjunath

    Hi Manjunath,
    As Brian already explained the way how usually rebate settlements happen with settlement or dummy material.
    Is our business needs to have settlement against actual materials billed ?
    If yes, we did an approach in our client.
    we have a six document concept which is custom developed.
    You have 2 documents created for rebate settlement run. Rebate credit memo request and rebate credit memo for settlement or dummy material maintained in rebate agreement.
    These two documents gets cancelled with corresponding cancellation documents.
    New set of documents created for Rebate credit memo request and rebate credit memo with actual materials.
    All of these documents are created using a batchjob and these documents form document flow in our case.
    You can try with help of an ABAPer for achieving this.
    Thanks

  • Clearing Rebate GL account- Accrual & settlement

    Hi,
    Require your help for the clearing of Rebate Accrual account. We have the following set of entries:
    Initially when you accrue rebates, the following entry is passed
    Accrued Expense a/c Dr.
    Accrued B/S a/c Cr.
    Then when you actually pay to customer then the journal entry that is passed is:
    Customer Cr.
    Accrued Expense a/c Dr.
    Accrued B/S a/c Dr.
    Accrued Expense a/c Cr.
    How the accrual B/S GL account isis cleared - at the time of settlement (how) or automatic clearing (how - what parameters). Please revert
    Thanks

  • How the sales returns will effect after rebate settlement in sap

    Dear SD Experts,
    I have a query that the Rebate settlement is done (Material Rebate) after that the sales returns has taken place and again in the credit memo the system is showing the rebate accruals.
    Can any one please suggest me how the actual postings will takes place? what changes need to be done to reverse the rebate accrual already posted.
    Thanks in advance.
    Anjan kumar

    Hi Imran
    1. The first entry should ideally happen along with the invoice posting or when you run VBOF.
    Dr. Rebate Discount
    Cr. Rebate Accrual
    This means that rebate accruals are happening. This means you are keeping a provision to pay. You are booking a liability in your books.
    2. The second entry is when you pay out to the customer.
    Dr. Rebate Accrual
    Cr. Customer
    This means you are reducing the customer balance by adjusting against the liability. Ideally this entry is passed when you do a partial settlement. If a final settlement is executed then the additional accruals if any in the account will get reversed.
    3. While taking returns the entry that you say that is happening is
    Dr. Customer
    Cr. Rebate Accrual
    This is also correct since he has returned the good, we ideally should not pass on the benefit to him. Additionally if this is happening that means the rebate is still active. When you finally settle the rebate if there is any balance in the rebate account it will get reversed. This means liability will be reversed in your books of accounts.
    Thanks

  • Rebate settlement and VAT

    Hi Gurus,
    I am implementing retrospective rebates in SD.
    I have produced a rebate settlement document (in Poland (where I am working) that document is a corrective invoice request). With the billing document that I will produce from that request I need to post VAT in addition to the usual postings that SAP performs in rebate agreement settlements (that is: accruals reverse, client account profit correction and posting of rebate ammount).
    That means that I need somehow to include MWST like price conditions in the settlement documents.
    Unfortunatelly it seems that SAP does not allow including any new conditions in the pricing of those settlement documents. No new conditions can be added to the corrective invoice request.
    Is there any way to add price conditions to a rebate settlement document ?
    Or is it a SAP constraint that nothing else can be changed there in order to not to  mess with the normal rebate settlement ?
    I have a program that calculates the right VAT ammounts I have to post. If only I could include it somehow in the settlement doc. that would solve the problem...
    Thank you in advance for any advice

    Hello,
    Can you tell which Rebate Type are you using and which Sales Document type this rebate type generates? 
    Thanks

  • Rebate settlement at Sales order level

    Insight requested..
    How to do rebate settlement at sales order level, generally rebate settlement is done after the invoice creation and with reference to accounting document.

    Dear sud
    The definition for rebate is A rebate is a special discount which is paid retroactively to a customer. This discount is based on the customer's sales volume over a specified time period.
    Having said that if you are willing to give some discount to your customer, on the order itself, we can call it as DISCOUNT and it should not be called as REBATES.
    For discounts, you can create a condition type and assign it to your pricing procedure.
    Incidentally, can you please let me know what warrants you to ask this question.  I am sure, the sales process won't be like that.
    Thanks

  • Rebate settlement not posting

    Hi,
    I encounter the following problem with B3 and B1 billing types: Error in account determination message VF051 for Partial settlement and Final settlement
    A bit more detail:
    Create a rebate agreement with relevant conditions.
    Complete Customer Order Cycle Process with Billing.
    Accrual posted successfully.
    However when you display the open items in this Provision GL account, items are shown when you select Normal items. When Noted items is selected, nothing is displayed.
    I have create a rebate settlement credit memo request limited to amount in accrual account. It saved successfully, remove the billing block and created the Credit Memo that don't want to release to accounting.
    The same rebate conditions are displayed in document in 2 lines: one with a positive and one with a negative. The positive in the Net Value amount. When you check account determination analysis on the credit memo then it determines the accrual account and the rebate sales deduction account.
    It is possible that the accrual posted as a normal item could prevent the system from reversing the accrual in the provision account and we should therefore change it to post as a noted item.

    Hi,
    Try the transaction code KE4I, to assign SD condition type to COPA.
    Thanks,
    Rudi

  • Issue in Vendor Rebate Settlement (ECC 6.0)

    Hello All,
    We recently upgraded from SAP 4.7 to ECC 6.0. In the new system, the vendor rebate settlement (MEB4) is giving the following errors:
    1. Error messages generated during billing document check run
    Message no. MN236
    Diagnosis
    Settlement accounting for rebate arrangement 85 is carried out using the general billing interface in the system (credit-side settlement type) or the general billing interface for customer billing documents (debit-side settlement type).
    It is also possible that credit memos (invoice verification, credit- side settlement type) are involved.
    The documents cannot be created without errors.
    2. For vendor 1885 no partner exists for partner function PI
    Message no. WS723
    The process used to work in the 4.7 version and no changes have been made to the configuration in the new system. Can someone please suggest the reason for these errors and how they can be resolved?
    Thanks,
    Rugmani

    HI,
       Please chk in the config....
    SPRO>MM->Partner Deter->Partner setting in Rebate Arrangement->Define partner schemas for Rebate..
    Here please check the partner function "PI" is made mandatory...
    You can main the Partner function "PI" in the agreement itself...
    Goto-- txn.MEB2-- enter the agreement no... inside click the icon "Agreement Partner" or (Ctrl+F2) and maintain the partner function PI..

  • Rebate settlement

    Hi Team,
    while settling the rebate i am gettting the error sales volume for agreement is not current. any help in solving this will be appreciated.
    Regards,
    Sasmita

    Hi Sasmita
    Rebate agreemnts is based on agreement types.Conditon records which are created like B001 and B002 are linked to the rebate agreeements specifying the rebate rate + the accrual rates.condition records specify the rebate rate and the accrual rates.
    Consider an example..
    You decided to give a rebate of 3% to a customer whose sales vol is $1000 for a particular SO
    Then the rebate value is $30..
    Now when you make the rebate settlement by doiing the Credit memo and you decide to pay $27, then the accounting will be generated saying 27$ paid towards rebate and 3$ is the accrual which you owe to the customer
    Procedure:
    Rebate agreement: Transaction code: VB01
    When you go to VB01, choose agreement type 0002 and then in conditions give
    Material rebate
    1 20
    20 30
    Now create a sales order with a material say M-11 for SOrg 1000 12 00 with QTY 6
    Now check VB03 and see rebate agreemtent it will say Accruals 120 and payments 0
    since your rebate is not settled still.
    Rebate setllement
    Go to VB02 enter ur sales deal no, and change the agreemetn status to B then enter Shift+F12 and enter the amount to be paid for example u say $80
    Then check in rebate payments rebate doc and partial setllemetn since you have not paid in full.
    View the credit memo request
    Remove the Billing bloock Go to VA01 and put order type G2 ,,go to create with ref and enter ur Sales order no,,save the doc now.
    Then go to VF01 and enter the credit memo reqst no generated...save the doc no and go to VF02 and say release to accounting

  • G/L account postings control in Accounting document

    Dear All,
    We have a scenario, where Business are using different materials for special charges. For these materials business decided to go with Credit and Debit memo process.
    Globally Business is using same Billing type CR/DR.
    anotherr information is they have the only one pricing procedure for Trading sales and Cr/DR also.
    While posting the credit note if the customer is eligible for rebates, then Rebate values also posting to accounting. These values are also nullifying.
    But Business requirement is whenever they process the special charges materials ( we have defined seperate materials ), Rebate values should not post to accounting means even it is nullifying also.
    We can create a new pricing procedure for this process because its Global process and each country will have the different taxations.
    So how to control the accounting postings while saving the invoice?
    Could you please help on the same.. Is there any user exit to control the Accounting postings?
    Thanks in advance..
    Regards,
    SK

    Give your constraints, I would look at finding a way to exclude (by requirement routine or exclusion) the rebate conditions in case where one of the special materials are used.
    You will need to choose a field on the material master to identify materials used for the special charges. The material account assignment group is a strong possibility.
    Some possibilities:
    1. In the pricing procedure, add a requirement routine to skip the rebate accruals in the material is for special charges.  OR
    2. In the access sequence for the rebate conditions, use a similar requirement routine OR
    3. Add a statistical condition to the pricing procedure that will be included when then material is for special charges - PLUS exclusion rules that drop the rebate conditions if this condition is present.
    The simplest option is #1.

  • Account postings for consignment

    Dear experts,
    Please explain me the account postings for consignment.
    thanks in advance,

    Hi,
    Consignment
    You manage material A from your vendor as consignment stock at a consignment price of $10/piece.
    Goods Withdrawal
    When you withdraw 100 pieces for consumption, the system makes a posting to the consumption account based on the consignment price. The offsetting entry is made to the account Liabilities from consignment stock.
    Consignment and Pipeline Settlement
    When the consignment withdrawals are settled, the liability created at the time of the withdrawal is cleared. The offsetting entry is posted to the vendor account.
    The system determines which taxes are to be posted for each item from the consignment info record or pipeline info record.
    When the system makes postings to the liabilities account, be they for withdrawals or for settlements, it creates the allocation number automatically from the material document number, so that the open items in Financial Accounting can be cleared.

  • Tracing a rebate settlement

    Hello All,
    I have a question regarding the vendor rebate settlements. Once a period settlement is done, is there any way to back trace the settlement to the invoice that it settled?
    For E.g: In the GL account for Vendor Rebate, it just shows a total amount after settlement. I want to trace it to the exact PO whose rebate accrual was settled.
    Is this possible? If yes, please explain the steps.
    Thanks,

  • Automatic rebate settlement

    Dear Friends,
    1.  We want to do the rebate settlement automatically periodically (monthly, quarterly or annually). How can I do this in SAP? When I see tthe VB(7 do not see much details.
      Also is it possible to do the partial settlement automatically for % of the accrual amount or fixed amount periodically, if possible how can I achieve this.
    2. We would like to give the rebate independent of the sales volume, like $500 everymonth needs to be accrued & able to create the partial settlement automatically by running a job monthly. Is this possible & how can I do this.
    3. New rebate procedure, how can I activate it & what are the precaution need to be taken before implementing & what is the implication of this.
    Thanks for your help in advance.
