Chargebacks

Retrieving eligible chargeback collections from vendor-driven, cost-recovery programs is a key source of revenue, and it can mean the difference between profit and loss. Protect your margins and improve visibility into the entire chargeback process, from procure-to-pay to order-to-cash, with an integrated chargeback management system.

The Chargebacks component of the Vendor Funding module by Vistex provides a single, integrated approach to managing complex, time-consuming tasks including contract updates, ongoing and retroactive transaction processing, amounts-due calculation and invoicing, documentation and reconciliation of vendor responses, resubmissions and detailed financial postings.

The solution enables your organization to examine and manipulate data from many perspectives – customer, SKU, program and channel – allowing distributors to implement and manage these programs more effectively. By offering exceptional, real-time visibility into transactions, processes and programs, Chargebacks accelerate cost recovery rates, reduce vendor accounts-receivable balances and error rates, and provide a clear view into true profitability.

Co-op & MDF

Smooth collaboration between vendors, distributors and retailers is critical. Vendor funding programs contribute to higher margins for distributors and retailers, but with multiple documents and approval requirements to manage, tracking claims becomes a source of frustration and errors.

As vendors contribute more promotional dollars to fund services, co-marketing or purchasing programs, it becomes more complex to track fund utilization and validate claims or negotiate contracts midstream to ensure program success. The Vendor Funding component of the Vendor Programs module by Vistex enables businesses to accurately reconcile the right amounts and tie all arrangements back to the relevant contracts. Organizations like yours can view critical analytics and performance data, strengthen partner relations with more transparency into claims themselves and speed up payments by minimizing back-and-forth submissions. 

Armed with more accurate information, you can negotiate better programs and events and ensure transparency while providing exceptional auditability and financial controls. Improved visibility into program activity also allows businesses to have a clear picture of unspent funds, assess the performance of different programs and take appropriate action to boost results.

Purchasing Rebates

Income from rebates can contribute to wholesale distributor and retailer margins. But without a powerful rebate solution in place, you could miss out on this vital source of income – in effect, leaving money on the table.

The Purchasing Rebates component of the Vendor Funding module is a comprehensive solution with sophisticated tools to model, administer, report and analyze all of your vendor rebate programs. It gives you the ability to understand the true income from your rebate programs, identify problems and opportunities, and take timely action to ensure that they deliver maximum value. You can also eliminate miscalculations and unrealized earnings, make more informed buying decisions and collect all the rebate income you’re owed.

Detailed drill-down functionality enables you to perform post-execution evaluations of your rebate programs and strategies, which you can then leverage to ensure optimal performance of subsequent programs. With advanced reporting and analytical tools providing real-time data for evaluating program performance, you’ll get a clear audit trail of settlements to satisfy rigorous compliance requirements.
