Editor's Notes

  • #10 Internal Audit – Revenue Recognition most important. Finance - Need proper accruals before first shipment, need to understand age of accrual Legal - a legal agreement detailing how the rebate is calculated, what evidence is needed to pay it out, frequency of pay out, authorized buying channels, payout type: AR reduction or AP payment to customer BU / Pricing Team – Ability to have flexible quoting capabilities, ensure visibility of net pricing and accurate implementation of rebate Sales – System needed to capture Opportunity and get authorized pricing with rebate Sales Operations – works to tie each Org’s concern into a comprehensive Rebate strategy through execution and communication
  • #11 Ensure ERP system is capturing accrual at most conservative rate Track the Rebate Accruals to ensure accuracy and understand age Collect appropriate proof of purchase and get approvals for payment requests (BU, Finance) Hold monthly meeting to understand what’s in the pipeline (new rebates w/.no formal agreement) Make strategic decision to release accrual back to revenue if it will not be claimed or under-claimed All of this can be done via spreadsheet (except the ERP system capturing the accrual)
  • #12 Customer Heroes - Your Gross Price needs to be good enough to get onto the AVL, this allows your Purchasing contact to claim PPV each Quarter or as needed Apttus’ rebate analytics allows us to measure the success of each rebate program by type of program, channel, region, and customer Apttus allows us to Manage all Quote to Cash activities on one platform Route and capture approvals for pricing including rebate program in SFDC Fill out and route for approval standard Legal agreement directly in SFDC Create a custom RFQ on company letterhead with standard Ts and Cs Understand profitability by Opportunity within each Account Deploy rebates at the Account level or Opportunity level Have visibility of future cost reductions
