These are commonly known as rebate accruals and are usually noted as dollar\/unit. There are also certain promotional events that offer a fixed dollar amount as part of the promotion. These are not seen on sales orders or invoices and are accounted for in the delta accruals run.<\/p>\n<p>To pay out the amount accrued, a settlement run is done.<\/p>\n<p>Finance and accounting teams need information from condition contracts and other documents generated from the settlement management process such as accrual documents and settlement documents to be populated at the General Ledger (G\/L) line-item postings in the relevant accounting documents.<\/p>\n<p>This is a frequent requirement in all industries across customers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sample Scenario<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Let us consider a fixed amount scenario.
