I've started in Condition Contract Management. I believe I understand the delta accruals and settlement process. I've created a condition contract with REA1 (Rebate Accrual) condition set to 5% and RES1 (Rebate) condition set to 5%.
In my hypothetical example I have $100 a month in sales, and my condition contract runs for a year from Jan to Dec. I started the Condition Contract in March, so there was a delta accrual for the $200 sales that had already been in Jan and Feb is done (5% of the 2 months is $10). I post a new sales invoice in March for $100 and can see business volume.
My question is, I've seen some clients put the REA1 condition in the billing document pricing proc as a statistical condition. So in March there's a 5% rebate sitting the invoice (business volume). I can see some sense if you are testing and want to see how much of a rebate/accrual you have (and if there are others hitting the sales invoice). But this will impact performance. Would there be other reasons (eg you don't run a delta accrual every month - but instead have the sales invoice document post to accruals)? Also why set it up this way, if you have scales, or realise you have made a mistake in the rebate % half way through the year - then you will have to do more work to correct (or you would not have the scales working properly) - whereas the delta accrual process is better?
