I have had the opportunity to steep myself in SAP S/4’s new SAP Settlement Management module. While I’m sure that I’ve barely scratched its surface, it has a demonstrated a strong capability to provide a framework for structuring complex Trade Promotions agreements.

Sometimes, being able to build a precise timeline around occurrences of an issue can be crucial to finding a solution.
