Create Adjustments

Here you can create manual adjustments.

Manual adjustments are created for these scenarios:

  • There could be missed accruals due to incorrect program definitions, which a channel program manager can correct with manual accruals.
  • A channel claim analyst may receive a permanently rejected claim line if an accrual is invalid. To prevent the accrual from being picked up again during claim generation, the analyst must create a manual accrual reversing the original invalid accrual.

Adjustments can reference just the program, or the program and item. An item is required for Supplier Rebate adjustments but is optional for Supplier Annual Program adjustments.

Details of the adjustment must include:

  • The adjustment type, adjustment reason, and comments for the adjustment
  • The requested accounting date (usually the same as the invoice date or ship date)
  • The adjustment amount

You can create adjustments for supplier annual programs and supplier rebate programs from the Manage Adjustments page.

The difference between a supplier rebate adjustment and a supplier annual rebate adjustment is that the supplier annual rebate adjustment can't reference an existing earned accrual. So, once a supplier annual program is specified, the transaction attributes are disabled in the UI.

How to Create Manual Adjustments

  1. From the Navigator, click Supplier Channel Management under Order Management or Procurement.
  2. On the Manage Supplier Programs page, from the Tasks panel, click Manage Adjustments. The Manage Adjustments page opens as a new tab.
  3. Click the Add Row icon to create a new adjustment.
  4. Enter the business unit for which you're making the adjustment.
    Note: You can see only those business units that are assigned to you.
  5. Select a program from the list of active programs. You can see the program's supplier site while selecting it.
  6. Select the item for which you're making the adjustment.

    You can also specify the supplier item in the adjustment. Use the Supplier Item list to select the supplier item.

  7. Select the Adjustment Type from the list. The Adjustment Reason is populated with the default value selected for the adjustment type. You can update this field if required.
  8. Enter the amount to be adjusted in the Amount field.
    Note: A green up arrow next to the amount indicates an increased earned adjustment type. A red arrow indicates a decreased earned adjustment type.
  9. Enter the Adjustment Date and the Requested Accounting Date, if required.
    Note: Optionally override an exchange rate date when the adjustment currency is not the same as the ledger currency. If an exchange rate date is not provided, then the adjustment approval date is used.
  10. Click Save.
    Note: To process your accrual adjustment, while scheduling the Generate Supplier Claims process, select the adjustment type of your adjustment from the Adjustment Type list.
