Additional checking for rebate condition fulfilment during settlement

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

This is a typical requirement from my client-

Client encourgaes sales to a particular part of the country. All our dealers belonging to any city or location are encouraged to sell to their end-customers of that part of the country. Dealers do specify the final customer location in their purchase orders, that we are capturing in the sales office field during sales order creation. Now, capturing the sales office as a criteria we are offering rebates and the system works fine.

However, sometimes dealers falsely declare the special rebate location in their PO but off load the material somewhere else. To check this part, our client have deputed people to confirm the material physically reaches the location that specified at the sales order; and on confirmation from these people only the rebate amount is paid to the dealers. Can some one suggest the way to map this, any idea will be highly appreciated.

Best Regards,

Ajit

Hi,

I am just bouncing an idea as :

I suggest you to put in place the functionality of Proof of Deliver . Proof of delivery (POD) is an instrument involved in business processes in which an invoice is issued only after the customer has confirmed the delivery's arrival and your rebate will be displayed as in normal process in invoice . In addition to the proof of delivery itself, you can also record the POD date, POD time, the actual quantity that arrived and the reason for possible differences in quantities.By this you will keep the track on delivery receipts.

In possible reason you can configure the reason code as "different location" for POD.

Then develop the requirement routine(VOFM) which will be the clone of 24. In this put an additional requirement to check pod and if reason code is different location.

Hope this will help you.

Regards,
