Free webinar · SAPSA · 60 minutes

AI reads them. SAP settles them. Finance sees the margin.

Rebate, bonus and commission agreements on autopilot. AI reads the terms from email, PDF and Excel, and SAP S/4HANA Settlement Management turns them into accurate accruals and settlements.

The slow part

The deal is agreed. Getting it into SAP is what takes time.

Terms arrive as attachments

Spreadsheets and PDFs land in someone's inbox, in every partner's own format.

Someone keys them in

Rates, periods and products are retyped by hand, often weeks after the deal was signed.

Margin shows up late

Without a contract in SAP there are no accruals, and the real cost of the deal surfaces at year-end.


What you'll learn

From agreement to accrual, with a person in control.

Settlement Management in one place

Customer rebates, supplier bonuses and commissions on one condition contract model in SAP S/4HANA. Who is covered, for how long, and how the reward is calculated.

Accruals that follow the deal

SAP tracks the real business volume and accrues as you go, so expected rebates show up in margin while the deal is still running.

AI that reads agreements

How AI on SAP Business Technology Platform pulls partners, periods, rates and products out of a PDF or spreadsheet, with a confidence score for every field.

You approve, SAP takes over

One review step, then a condition contract is created in S/4HANA. The agreement stays in SAP. The inbox stops being the process.

How it works

One agreement, five steps, live in SAP S/4HANA.

We follow a sell-through bonus from Tandemvik Cycles: a bicycle maker that pays a bonus for every bike and helmet its distributor sells to Ridgeline Bike Shops.

  1. 1

    The agreement arrives

    Tandemvik sends its 2027 bonus terms as a PDF.

  2. 2

    AI reads it

    Partners, validity, rates and products are extracted and matched to SAP master data.

  3. 3

    You review

    The document sits next to the proposal, with a confidence score per field and room for comments.

  4. 4

    Approve

    A condition contract is created in SAP S/4HANA, with no manual keying.

  5. 5

    SAP settles

    Accruals post as volume comes in. Settlement runs on the dates in the contract calendar.

FAQ

Good to know
