Operation and Link to Application (MM-PUR-VM)
Use
Rebate arrangements entered into with vendors by Purchasing can be passed on to Business
Workflow for settlement accounting purposes at regular intervals. There are two possible ways of
doing this, both of which should be carried out by a person acting as a coordinator. The latter can
be a central coordinator or a coordinator for a particular purchasing organization.
Activities
Manuel execution
The coordinator regularly carries out settlement accounting with regard to rebate
arrangements via Settlement acctg. Via workflow.
Automatic periodic execution
Since the program for settlement accounting via workflow should be run regularly (e.g.
each week), it is advisable to execute this program in the background at the desired
intervals. This involves two steps:
a) First define suitable variants of the program (program name: RWMBON11), in which the
settlement date field is defined as a selection variable and dynamically filled with the
current date. You can also add other selection criteria as required.
b) You then schedule the program to be run in the background with a desired period. See
the documentation on background processing: BC Computing Center Management
System Background Processing Scheduling and Managing Background Jobs.

Release of Invoices Blocked for Price Reasons (MM-IV-LIV)
70 April 2001
Release of Invoices Blocked for Price Reasons (MM-IVLIV)
Purpose
In Logistics Invoice Verification, invoice items are blocked due to price variances. Financial
Accounting cannot pay these invoices.
If a price block is defined for invoice items, the system can inform the buyer responsible for the
purchase order automatically via workflow. This means that he or she sees a work item in his or
her inbox, which he or she can use to verify the blocked invoice items and then process them as
follows:
Change the purchase orders
Release the invoice items by deleting the blocking reason
Flag the invoice items as cannot be clarified
The workflow ends when the price blocks in the invoice items are no longer valid because the
order prices have been changed, or when the invoice item is released because the blocking
reasons have been deleted.
If you flag price blocks in the invoice items as cannot be clarified, the system creates a work item

for the accounts payable clerk. The accounts payable clerk then explicitly ends the workflow.
