1 Purpose

The Royalties Settlement scope item concerns the subsequent settlement of royalty conditions agreed upon with a licenser. You use condition contracts from Condition Contract Management to enter
the royalty agreements with the licensers. In a condition contract, you specify the royalties recipient, organizational and process control parameter, the business volume selection criteria, the royalty
conditions and the settlement calendar with settlement dates for delta accrual, partial and final settlement. The delta accruals settlement reflects a procedure in which accruals for royalties are not
posted together with the transactional documents but subsequently in a specific settlement run. In the partial and final settlements of a condition contract you perform the royalties calculation based
on business volume and royalty conditions and you create the settlement documents reflecting an invoice from the licensers for the granting license rights in sales deals. Settlement documents are
usually immediately released to accounting. You can also create a two-step condition contract to collect and post settlement documents of different condition contracts in one journal entry to ac -
counting.
This scope item is closely related to the business process of Sell from Stock (BD9) scope item. Ideally, the condition contract is created first before you start to enter sales orders in the system. How -
ever, you can also create condition contracts subsequently with a validity period starting in the past. Also, royalties processing and sales transactions run in parallel in that sense that you process par -
tial settlements for billing documents entered continuously during the condition contract’s validity period.
After describing the general process flow, two special aspects are addressed at the end of the test script. When a defined minimum sales turnover for a royalties eligibility will probably not be
reached, you are obliged to reverse existing accruals and prevent creating new accruals. This requirement is fulfilled with the help of an unlikelihood condition maintained in the condition contract.
In addition, you can maintain conditions for adjusting the (final) settlement amount in the condition contract. You typically agree upon such adjustments with the licenser when there is a dissonance
concerning the relevant business volume. You can maintain a condition for adjusting the business volume, for an additional royalties amount and for a final fixed royalties amount.
In addition, you can also configure workflows to include the approval process for condition contracts, release of condition contract for settlement and partial and final settlement documents. You can
define workflow preconditions for releasing condition contracts and settlement documents. An approver can choose to approve, reject or send the documents for rework to the document initiator. The
approval process starts when a workflow with one or more steps is activated and the preconditions you have assigned to it are met.
This document provides a detailed procedure for testing this scope item after solution activation, reflecting the predefined scope of the solution. Each process step, report, or item is covered in its
own section, providing the system interactions (test steps) in a table view. Steps that are not in scope of the process but are needed for testing are marked accordingly. Project-specific steps must be
added.
Values in this test script (decimal notation, date formats, and so on) are presented in U.S. standard notation. If your test system is set up to use a different notation, enter values as appropriate.

2.4 Preliminary Steps


The business volume for royalties settlement is determined from billing documents. To prepare transactional test data you can follow the Sell from Stock (BD9) scope item and create sales orders,
deliveries, and billing documents. To execute the BD9 scope item, materials must be available in stock. In the following we describe how you can set up an initial stock for materials when there is no
or only low stock.
Define condition contract process variants to also test variations of the core process. A process variant is used to define limited variations for condition contract maintenance and settlement that are
configured for a condition contract type without changing the overall character of the process defined by a condition contract type. In this chapter we describe process variants for different purposes.
Note that you can also combine settings from these process variants. If you assign a condition contract process variant to a new condition contract you have to enhance the account determination set -
tings. The process variant is a key field in the relevant condition table. We describe how you maintain account determination settings for the first process variant for approval workflow. Proceed in
the same way for all other process variants that you want to test.
If you want to test the approval workflow as one of the possible process variations you have to maintain additional workflow settings and define teams and responsibilities. In contrast to sales rebates
and sales commission processing, SAP currently does not provide a dedicated business role for a manager who monitors the royalties processing. Such a role within the Financial Operations area is
planned when further scope items for Settlement Management will be provided. Because of that, SAP abstained from an assignment of workflow relevant business catalogs to business roles for roy-
alties processing in the business content. Accordingly, this is the first step you have to do when maintaining workflow settings as described in chapter Assign Workflow Relevant Business Catalogs
to Business Roles. To establish the workflow the Sales Manager has been chosen in this test script as business role for approval steps. In principle, you can choose another business role. Note that the
assignment of business catalogs SAP_SD_BC_CC_WIAPPROVE_PC Sales – Condition Contract Approval and SAP_SD_BC_SDOC_WIAPRV_PC Sales – Condition Contract Settlement Docu-
ment Approval is already maintained when either the Sales Rebate Processing or Sales Commissions - External Sales Representative scope item is active. Here, the assignment is part of the business
content. Anyway, you have to assign business catalog SAP_SD_BC_CC_WIREWORK_PC Sales – Condition Contract Rework to business role SAP_BR_CONTR_MGR_ROYALTIES Contract
Manager – Royalties.

2.4.4 Sell from Stock (Optional)

Purpose

The business volume for royalties settlement is determined from billing documents. To prepare transactional test data you can follow the Sell from Stock (BD9)scope item which describes the sales
process from a standard sales order to a billing document.
This step is required and can be executed before or after you create the condition contract and after each settlement run.
When you want to use the royalties recipient as business volume selection criterion you enter the royalties recipient business partner ID for partner function RR Royalties Recipient on the Partner tab
for sales order items. When you enter the royalties recipient business partner ID on header level the system copies it down to new sales order items.

Procedure

Complete all the activities described in Sell from Stock (BD9) scope item's test script using the master data from this document.
Note If you want to use the optional link between Sell from Stock (BD9) scope item and Condition Contract Settlement, this reference only works if you use consistent master data (such as business
partner and material for the sales order and the royalty condition contract).

2.4.5 Configure Process Variant (Optional)


This chapter describes the definition of condition contract process variants to also test variations of the core process. A process variant is used to define limited variations for condition contract main -
tenance and settlement that are configured for a condition contract type without changing the overall character of the process defined by a condition contract type. In this chapter we describe process
variants for different purposes. Note that you can also combine settings from these process variants. If you assign a condition contract process variant to a new condition contract you have to enhance
the account determination settings. The process variant is a key field in the relevant condition table. We describe how you maintain account determination settings for the first process variant for ap -
proval workflow. Proceed in the same way for all other process variants that you want to test.

This process step shows you how to create a condition contract process variant which controls that royalties are treated tax-free.
Some countries, like the USA, do not tax services. When royalties are regarded as a service, taxation will be set to zero for the royalties amount. Tax-free royalties are achieved with this process vari -
ant in which you set the tax indicator for materials to zero. This tax indicator setting is transferred to pricing of a settlement run by a configured transfer rule.
If you want to treat royalties tax-free, make sure that you assign the condition contract process variant when you create a new condition contract.

2.4.5.4 Create Process Variant to Configure Split Criteria for Settlement (Optional)

Purpose

This process step shows you how to create a condition contract process variant to activate further split criteria defined in the profiles for business volume determination.
Split criteria for condition contract settlement – defined in Customizing in the profiles for business volume determination - are used to point up the contribution of different business objects to the
overall royalties amount. In the profile for business volume determination relevant for royalties settlement, some split criteria, such as material or profit center, are defined as always active. The us -
age of these split criteria cannot be influenced with a condition contract process variant. But there are other split criteria which are defined as inactive until activated by a process variant. Note that
for the test of an additionally activated split criterion you also have to prepare the business volume data accordingly with different values for the split criterion.

4 Test Procedures

This chapter comprises the test procedures for different royalties settlement scenarios covered by this scope item.
The first section Royalties Settlement Processing describes the basic royalties settlement scenario with the creation of the corresponding condition contract and the execution of the delta accruals,
partial and final settlement. Settlement documents created in partial settlements and in the final settlement are immediately released to accounting.
The second section Two-Step Royalties Settlement Processing describes an alternative settlement procedure when you have several royalties agreements with the same licenser. In the partial settle -
ments and in the final settlement for the different condition contracts you first create so called parked settlement documents that are not transferred to accounting. In a second step you collect the
parked settlement documents to create a collective settlement document which is then transferred in one journal entry to accounting. Thus you reduce the workload for the accounting module and
you have the information for the royalties settlement with a licenser in one journal entry.
The third section Royalties Settlement Processing with Approval Workflow describes how you can include approval steps in the royalties settlement processing. The description refers to the basic
royalties settlement scenario but it can be applied similar for the two-step settlement scenario. The approval workflow comprises three feature: approval for the release of a condition contract, for the
settlement of a condition contract, and for the settlement document for a transfer to accounting. You can choose whether you want to use one of these features, or two or all three.
Finally, we describe three special cases. First, you can use this scope item to process royalties for service contracts in combination with the allocation of expenses regarding the accounting periods of
the service contract duration. Secondly, it is shown how you can maintain conditions for adjusting the (final) settlement amount in the condition contract, and thirdly how you maintain an unlikeli -
hood condition in a condition contract for the case that a royalties eligibility will probably not be reached.
