When you process claim settlements from the Claims Workbench that are debit memos, the Voucher Posting process closes the claim voucher, debiting the payables account and crediting the rebate account.

Claim settlements that are a payment type other than debit memos (for example, checks) are handled by the Receivable Update Application Engine process (ARUPDATE). Here, the Receivable Update process closes the voucher by debiting the receivables account and crediting the rebate account.

For both processes, the system derives the rebate account information from the rebate agreement.
