Supplier proof of sale rebates

Hello List,

We need to implement supplier proof of sale rebates in advanced pricing, so
I first checked the documentation and the white paper ods-04-0024, and I
still have questions. I also opened a case with JD Orasoft a few days ago and
haven't received a response.

1. With conventional rebates, the accrual number that is used in the factor
value numeric field is negative, the rebate factor number RBTF is positive.
However, in the 8.11 version of the standalone (Demo Jr.) the rebate factor
is negative for the supplier proof of sale rebate adjustment SPOSREB. This
may be a mistake or it may be valid if the sign of the rebate factor depends on
the method used to award the rebate (accounts receivable invoice debit memo
method versus accounts payable credit order method). Perhaps some other
explanation is correct.

2. The documentation mentions the two methods above for awarding the
rebates, but then the documentation also states that supplier proof of sale rebates
are awarded through the sales order entry program P4210. This is supposedly
done by taking an exit to the Price History screen and then taking another
exit to the Hide/Show screen. Is this an actual award method, or a necessary
step in one of the award methods, or is it just a way to see what is going to
happen later in the awards process?

3. Do I need to create both different versions and different line types for
both the conventional rebates and the supplier proof of sale rebates? Do I
need multiple versions of P4210? We intend to keep everything within accounts
receivable.

Thanks in advance for any insights.
