Sales Contract Management (I9I)
This scope item addresses the following scenarios:
Sales quantity or sales value contract: The quantity contract contains basic quantity and price information. A value contract is a legal agreement with a customer that contains the materials and services that the customer receives within a specified time period, and for a value up to a specified target value. In this scope item, the internal sales representative creates a sales quantity or value contract. Following this, a call-off order is created against the contract.
Quantity-contract-based down payments: For the sales quantity contract, down payments can be requested via a billing plan. Upon call-off order creation, a delivery block is assigned to the call-off order schedule lines. Once the down payments are received, the delivery block is removed automatically. In the delivery-related final invoice of the call-off order, the received down payments for the quantity contract is deducted.
