Definition

The settlement type determines whether settlement with regard to a rebate arrangement in Purchasing is carried out on the credit side or debit side and whether it is carried out at plant or purchasing organization level.

"Credit side" means that the vendor sends Purchasing one or more credit memos (settlement documents are vendor billing documents). In the case of settlement documents created prior to Release 4.5A, the credit memos may still be credit memos from Invoice Verification.

"Debit side" means that Purchasing sends one or more customer billing documents to the vendor. For rebate arrangements with the settlement partner "debtor" (i.e. arrangements with a customer), only the debit-side settlement types can be used. For arrangements with the settlement partner "creditor" (i.e. arrangements with a vendor), a debtor must be assigned to the "condition granter", if settlement accounting is to be carried out on the debit side.

"Settlement at plant level" means that the rebate income associated with a condition record is apportioned among all participating plants in proportion to their share in the business volume. A separate document item is created for each plant, the company code of the relevant plant being used in each case. Processing can be on a cross-company-code basis. Several billing documents may be created.

If settlement is effected at purchasing organization level, the entire rebate income associated with the condition is assigned to the purchasing organization (only one document item).

The company code of the purchasing organization is used. If the latter is not assigned to a company code, the company code that is entered manually during rebate arrangement maintenance is used. Cross-company-code processing is not possible.
