Claimback SetID Information

Field or Control

Description

Automatically Apply

The system applies a claimback only when the CSR clicks the Calculate Price button on the order entry form. Select a claimback contract processing option from these available options:

First To Expire: If more than one contract qualifies for an order line or schedule and the flag is set to First to Expire, then the system applies the claimback contract with the earliest end date.

Largest Claimback Amount: If more than one contract qualifies for an order line or schedule and the flag is set to Largest Claimback Amount, then the system applies the claimback contract with the largest calculated claimback amount.

None: If the flag is set to None, then the system will not apply a claimback contract to an order line or schedule.

Schedule ID

Enter a schedule ID, as set up in the schedules component, to indicate how often claims should be generated for this claimback SetID.

Stop Apply At Max Quantity (stop apply at maximum quantity)

Indicates whether or not the contract should still be applied to a sales order line or schedule when the maximum quantity on the claimback contract has been reached.

If this option is not selected, the system sends a warning message indicating that the maximum quantity on the claimback contract was reached.

If the option is selected, the system sends an error message and does not apply the claimback contract to the sales order line or schedule because the maximum quantity on the claimback contract was reached.

Base Currency

Select a base currency to be used when creating claimback contracts for this SetID.

Rate Type

Identifies the conversion rate to be used if currency conversion is required.

Claimback Contacts

Field or Control

Specifies who has access to create and maintain claimback contracts for this SetID. This field is required, and it is provided by default to all claimback contracts created for this SetID.

Notify Settlement Manager

Specify if the Settlement manager should be notified when a settlement method is determined for a claim during the settlement process. If enabled, enter the Claimback Settlement manager ID in the field provided.

Claimback Settlement Mgr ID (claimback settlement manager ID)

Specifies who owns the settlement process for any claims created against a claimback contract. This person is responsible for processing the claim through Accounts Receivable or Accounts Payable, depending on the settlement method. This field is required, and it is provided by default to all claimback contracts created for this SetID.

Prefixes

Field or Control

Description

Claimback Contract Prefix

Specify one of the auto-numbering prefixes set up for the Claimback Contract ID number type.

Claim Prefix

Specify one of the auto-numbering prefixes set up for the Claim ID number type.

Tolerances

Tolerances, both over and under based on either a flat amount or a percentage, are defined in the Claimback Contract Header and passed to the Claims Management Workbench to be used during the settlement process.

Note: The Accounts Receivable Payment Predictor functionality allows the user to set up matching tolerances that will automatically write off any remaining claim balance. The claim tolerances defined in the Claimback Contract Header are handled differently through the Claim Settlement process, which creates an adjustment to an open item to handle the amount of the remaining claim to be written off. To avoid creating duplicate write-offs for an open item, which could create a credit balance for the customer (supplier), you should not use a Payment Predictor method that uses a tolerance.

Field or Control

Description

Over Tolerance Percent

If the amount above the claim amount that is received from a supplier is greater than or equal to this percentage of the claim amount, then the claim will be closed automatically.

Over Tolerance Amount

If the amount above the claim amount that is received from a supplier is greater than or equal to this amount, then the claim will be closed automatically.

Under Tolerance Percent

If the amount below the claim amount that is received from a supplier is less than or equal to this percentage of the claim amount, then the claim will be closed automatically.

Under Tolerance Amount

If the amount below the claim amount that is received from a supplier is less than or equal to this amount, then the claim will be closed automatically.

Use the Unrestricted Managers page (CB_UNRESTRICTED) to identify specific roles or users with unrestricted access to claimback contracts for the selected claimback SetID.
