The Rule Configuration DPE reads the rebate type and benefit configuration and creates the reference records that the subsequent DPEs use. No accrual amounts are calculated at this stage.
Required Editions
| Available in: Enterprise, Unlimited, and Developer Editions that have Rebate and Accrual Management Advanced enabled. |
The DPE reads the Aggregation Criteria and Calculation Method you configured on each rebate type and converts them into Input Anchor and Rule Meta records.
| Rebate Type | Program | Group by Member | Group by Product |
|---|---|---|---|
| Volume-Based | AMER Program | Yes | No |
| Revenue-Based | AMER Program | Yes | No |
| Volume-Based | APAC Program | Yes | Yes |
| Revenue-Based | APAC Program | Yes | Yes |
The DPE also creates a Rule Meta record for each rebate type that specifies whether tiers are applied retroactively or in steps.
| Rebate Type | Program | Tier Application |
|---|---|---|
| Volume-Based | AMER Program | Retroactive |
| Revenue-Based | AMER Program | Stepped |
| Volume-Based | APAC Program | Retroactive |
