Maximize the Power of Your Rebate Spend with Automated Processes for Managing Complex Programs

Automate rebate processes
with a single solution
Step up from managing your rebate program
manually to automating with a streamlined industry
cloud solution that can increase your profitability,
financial visibility, and sales revenue.
Many organizations manage rebates using spreadsheets –
a 100% manual approach that is complicated, slow, and
prone to mistakes. With the rising sophistication of
programs to yield better returns for the rebate investment,
inefficient processes inevitably lead to inaccurate accruals,
unrealized earnings, unplanned inventory turnover, and
miscalculated payouts. Some organizations purposefully
offer only straightforward rebates that give away margin
and do not yield increased business, just to avoid
exceeding their rebate system’s limitations. By automating
your rebate processes, you can maximize the advantages of
incentive programs and rebates for your organization.

Leverage one solution to manage complex programs
The private cloud edition of SAP Incentive Administration
streamlines administration of rebate programs by giving you
a single point of access to the tools you need to effectively
model, implement, and manage complex programs. You
can quickly create and successfully administer many types
of incentive programs, including those based on percentages,
sales, growth, and other outcomes, even in tiered or multi-
dimensional scenarios.
This application lets you manage the rebate lifecycle from
start to finish. A user-friendly workbench makes it intuitive
to develop, simulate, launch, administer, and maintain plans.
Sophisticated tools give you the ability to efficiently manage
complicated programs with multiple customers, channel
partners, and suppliers as well as tiered, stacked, and
capped rebate structures.
Advanced reporting and analytics provide real-time data
for evaluating program performance. Automated
processes execute calculations, accelerate payments, and
provide a clear audit trail of accruals and settlements to
help you meet compliance requirements. And when your
organization can see program data in real time, you have a
true up-to-the-minute picture of program performance
and its impact on business goals.
The private cloud edition manages sales and purchase-
based rebates, allowing you to offer programs to your
channel partners and customers as well as manage rebate
programs that suppliers and distributors offer to you. For
retailers and wholesalers, the revenue earned from
purchasing rebates can be accurately anticipated in the
solution and reallocated to fund the down-channel rebate
programs you offer to your customers to increase sell-
through velocity.
Managing complex rebate programs
is now simplified with user-friendly
features, advanced analytics, and
increased transparency.
