If indirect rebates have been enabled in your channel, you will be able to select which of your trading partners will be included when configuring the program line. The programs’ trading partner will be automatically selected, with the others unselected by default. You can then include any additional trading partners manually, or by creating inclusion or exclusion rules.
Then, for dimensions that have been configured at the Trading Partner level, you may select dimension items from any included trading partners.
For supplier rebates, for example, a ‘Product’ dimension will likely be configured at the supplier level. Thus, changing the suppliers on the program line will change the products available to choose from for the program line.
For customer rebates, on the other hand, a 'Customer Location’ dimension (or ‘Members’ dimension if you are a buying group) will likely be configured at the customer level. Thus, changing the customers on the program line will change the customer locations available to choose from for the program line.
When additional trading partners are chosen, transactions for these trading partners will also generate earnings for this program line.
Reporting Indirect rebates
There is a filter in the Program Earnings Report called '[Trading Partner] on transaction'. This will allow you to choose one or more trading partners and run a report that only shows earnings where the chosen trading partners appear on the earning transactions.
Indirect rebates can be configured for your channel by Enable staff. If you would like this enabled in your channel, please get in touch with us.
