For Wholesale Distribution Supplier Ship & Debit For Wholesale Distribution Request Special Price Track Accruals Manage Disputes & Payments Request New Price from Supplier Receive Supplier approval/ authorization Record Accruals Generate Accurate Accounting Compile accruals & generate Claims Transmit Claims to Supplier via XML or WebADI Resolve Disputes Issue Debit to Suppliers Claim What Channel revenue management product automating special price requests for wholesale distribution and streamlines the ship & debit claim process Automate all agreements, tracking, accounting journal entries and chargeback’s to vendors manual processes for timely claims processing Benefits Reduced margin leakage. Reduced cost of managing special pricing agreements and greater visibility into claim process Key Message: Wholesale distribution companies have historically operated with limited visibility into the ROI of promotional funds and their associated accrued assets due to complex, labor intensive business processes. Distributors can ill afford to leave margins on the table due to these unprocessed claims. Supplier Ship & Debit automates special price requests to improve margin realization. Implementation Approach: This solution is tightly integrated with EBS Financials. Customers: From a blue chip committee of a dozen high tech distributors (including Arrow Electronics, Canon Americas, IKON, Ingram Micro, New Age Electronics, Tech Depot/Office Depot, Seagate), automation of the distributor ship & debit process was identified as “the” top investment priority! And was the main reason for Arrow Electronics to select EBS!

Automation of manual spreadsheets, faster realization from price protection claims, complete control & full visibility into the process, increased channel revenues Key Message: Wholesale distribution companies have historically operated with limited visibility into the effect of supplier price changes internally and to end customers/retailers and their associated accrued assets/liabilities due to complex, labor intensive business processes. Distributors can ill afford to leave margins on the table due to these unprocessed claims. Price Protection automates supplier price changes to improve margin realization. Implementation Approach: This solution is tightly integrated with EBS Financials but can be configured to integrate to other financial, warehouse/inventory and Costing systems as it leverages FMW’s BPEL architecture. Customers: From a blue chip committee of a dozen high tech distributors (including Arrow Electronics, Canon Americas, IKON, Ingram Micro, New Age Electronics, Tech Depot/Office Depot, Seagate), automation of the price protection process was identified as a top investment priority (number 2 after Supplier Ship & Debit)! And was a key driver for Arrow Electronics to select EBS!
