Documentation
Definition
Number of points awarded by the granter of conditions for purchases of this material.
Procedure
Here you enter the number of points awarded by the vendor for purchases of this material.
Use
If, for the purposes of subsequent settlement with regard to conditions, you work with a points system instead of using business volume figures or percentages, the amount due according to conditions requiring subsequent (end-of-period) settlement is calculated on the basis of the total points awarded for the purchases of the material over the period in question.
A points system allows the materials supplied by a vendor to be weighted independently of their price.
Example:
Material "Steel 1" costs $100 per ton from vendor ACME, whereas material "Steel 2" costs $5 per ton. Vendor ACME grants a rebate of 3% on the total business volume at the end of the year if materials worth at least 100,000 points were ordered from him during the course of the year. In the case of material "Steel 1", you are awarded 10 points for every ton ordered, whereas you get 20 points for each ton "Steel 2" ordered.
When issuing your purchase orders, you can take into account how many tons of "Steel 1" or "Steel 2" you need to order to reach a total of 100,000 points and thus qualify for a retrospective volume rebate.
