Cumulative Agreement If this check box is selected, this is an agreement to calculate rebates based on cumulative sales. LN records all sales for which this agreement is applicable in a separate file. At the end of the current period, you can calculate the rebate based on the total sales in this period with the Calculate Commissions/Rebates on Cumulative Sales (tdcms1200m000) session. Grade by Quantity/Amount This field determines the basis for the grades. Currency currency Note If the Currency for Invoicing is set to Agreement in the Relations (tdcms0110s000) session, you can use this field to specify the invoice currency for a relation. However, if the agreement applies to an agreement group, you cannot define an invoice currency. In this case, the reference currency is used. Grade Unit The unit that determines the grade. A grade unit only applies to agreements defined for items. Note You must first fill in the Item field and then choose Quantity in the Grade by Quantity/Amount field, so you can fill in the grade unit. Grade Calculation This field determines the basis for the grade calculation. Example If an item is ordered:
Quantity | Unit Price | Commission
100 | 20 | 1 %
    Result:

    Gross
    The commission is 100 * 20 * 1% = 20
    Net
    The commission is 100 * 20 * 1% = 20
    The remainder amount is 2000 - 20 = 1980
    The final commission amount is 1% *	1980 = 19.80
Related topics Commissions and rebates calculation examples Fixed Amount On This field determines how the rebates are calculated if a fixed amount is entered. Allowed values Fixed Amount on grade or Unit Rebate Over The basis on which rebates are calculated. Grade The rebate is based on the amount or quantity in this grade. Total The rebate is based on the total amount of an order, or order line. Example An order is placed for $25,000, using the following scale:
Up to | %
--- | ---
$10,000 | 0
$20,000 | 1
$30,000 | 2
$999,999 | 3
If the percentage is based on Grade, the following applies: $10,000 * 0% = $0 $10,000 * 1% = $100 $5,000 * 2% = $100 Total = $200 If the percentage is based on Total, the rebate is calculated as follows: $25,000 * 2% = $500 Grow Rebate Over The basis on which the growing rebates are calculated. Example A sales order is placed for $50,000. The normal rebate is based on Total. The growing rebate is based on Grade. The following scale is used:
Up to | Normal % | Growing %
--- | --- | ---
$10,000 | 0 | 0
$20,000 | 1 | 0
$30,000 | 2 | 1
$999,999 | 3 | 3
Rebate | Calculation
--- | ---
Normal | $50,000 * 3% = $1,500
Growing | $10,000 * 0% = $0 $10,000 * 0% = $0 $10,000 * 1% = $100 $20,000 * 3% = $600 Total = $700
Total | = $1,500 + $700 = $2,200
Invoice Direct/Reserve This field controls how LN settles the calculated rebate. The following restrictions apply to this function: If an Employee relation type is specified in the agreement, this field is always Reserve. If the Link with Finance check box is selected in the Commissions/Rebates Parameters (tdcms0100s000) session and no Employee relation type is specified in the agreement, this field is Invoice. Note Payments to employees will not be invoiced directly, because of legal requirements concerning taxation. When no relation is entered in the agreement, LN checks the relation type when rebates are posted to Invoicing. If the relation is an employee, the calculated rebate will always be accumulated, even if this field has the value Invoice. Allowed values Invoice directly/reserve Discount Code The discount code's type must correspond with the agreement's type ( Commission or Rebate), and must be suitable for use in an agreement. |
