Follow Up Future Rate Agreement

This document explains how you review to what extent invoices and payments affect the future rate agreement.

Outcome

You know the amount that is reserved for the agreement in the form of open invoices, the amount that is actually paid, and the percentage of the two in relation to the agreement amount.

You also know which invoices are connected to the agreement and why.

Use this knowledge to decide whether it would be advantageous to connect more invoices to the agreement before it expires or whether it would be better to register invoices using the a vista exchange rate instead.

Before you start

  • A future rate agreement must be registered in 'Future Rate Agreement. Open' (RMS120).
  • There must be invoices connected to a future rate agreement.

    • To review a summary of the current situation per agreement, go to step 2
    • To review invoices with or without agreements, go to step 5.

  2. Start 'Future Rate Agreement. Open' (RMS120/B).
