Using Settlement Manager Workflow Notifications

This section discusses how to use the settlement manager workflow notification within the PeopleTools Workflow Technology.

The settlement manager workflow provides settlement managers with notifications of claims settlement activity that has occurred against vendor rebate claims that they are responsible for.

To generate the settlement manager notification:

  1. Run the Rebate Accrual process to generate rebate accrual transactions.

  2. Run the Generate Claims process to generate vendor rebate claims.

  3. Run the Claim Settlement process to send claims to PeopleSoft Payables and PeopleSoft Receivables to be processed.

  4. Run the Notify Settlement Manager process to create worklist or email entries to notify the settlement managers that claims settlement activity has occurred for the vendor rebate agreements they are responsible for.

  5. Review the worklist entry or the email sent for the claims settlement notification.

    The settlement manager will use either the Message Dashboard or the Worklist page to review and acknowledge the notifications that were sent by the workflow process to the worklist.
