Creating Remuneration Lists

Use

This process describes how you create remuneration lists so that you can perform settlement accounting with your business partners (vendors or customers) for your commission. In this, the system groups together several single settlement requests, settlement request lists, vendor billing documents, or posting lists to form one or more new documents.

You can then run a cumulated posting for the commissions generated in the original documents. You can transfer the amount from the remuneration list to a revenue account used by your company.

As several documents for a single payment recipient are grouped together in a single remuneration list, this reduces the number of accounting documents, and therefore streamlines settlement accounting for invoice list conditions.

Prerequisites

In Customizing for Agency Business you must create the correct data so that the system can automatically create the billing type for remuneration list, using the billing type for an individual settlement request, .

To create invoice lists, you require at least one preceding document that has already been passed on to Financial Accounting.

When creating remuneration lists, only remuneration list conditions are taken into consideration. These include del credere commissions, and taxes on del credere commissions, for example.

Procedure

1. You create a remuneration list.

You can choose between the following options when you create remuneration lists:

• Manually

You can enter the document numbers individually to create one or more remuneration lists.

• From payment documents

You can have the system generate one or more remuneration lists from payment documents (single settlement requests and settlement request lists).

• From vendor billing documents

You can have the system generate one or more remuneration lists from vendor billing documents.

• From expense settlement documents

You can have the system generate one or more remuneration lists from vendor billing documents.

• From posting lists

You can have the system generate one or more remuneration lists from posting lists.

• From customer settlement documents

You can have the system generate one or more remuneration lists from customer settlement documents.

2. The system groups together documents with the same header data to form a remuneration list.

All document data is taken from the preceding documents. You do not have to enter any further data. If the header data differs (for example, there is a different invoice recipient or different due date), the system creates a new remuneration list for this.

In Customizing for Agency Business, you can enter further splitting criteria for grouping remuneration lists.

3. After the system has created the remuneration list, it enters the document number of the remuneration list in the header data of the original documents.
4. You can then post the remuneration list.

For further information, see Posting Documents.

If you have set a vendor-side payment block in Customizing, the system automatically removes this block when the remuneration list is released for the payment recipient (for example, the vendor).

For further information, see Vendor-Side Payment Block.

If the invoice list does not require any accounting documents to be generated, the payment block is removed when the remuneration list is saved.

Result

The system creates accounting documents, which are forwarded to Financial Accounting for further processing.
