Create Accruals for Channel Batch

The Create Accruals for Channel Batch scheduled process checks eligibility of the channel document transactions and creates channel program accrual entries for the eligible transactions. A supply chain application administrator can create the channel accruals on demand or schedule it as a batch process on a periodic basis.

Supplier Rebate Transactions

If the channel setting Event for Triggering Supplier Rebate Accrual is Receiving Transaction, then if the batch line is eligible, then creates accruals.

If the channel setting Event for Triggering Supplier Rebate Accrual is Supplier Invoice, then Channel receives the supplier invoices directly from Payables, or are imported using CSV files.

  • If the batch line is eligible but not invoiced, then creates open accruals.
  • If eligible and invoiced, then creates earned accruals.

For example, a receiving transaction for a quantity of 10 units can be invoiced for a quantity of 8 units. Here, open accruals will be recorded for a quantity of 2 units and earned accruals will be recorded for 8 units.

Customer Rebate Transactions:

It creates earned accruals for eligible sales invoices imported using CSV files.
