Kathy Barthelt 0 80644 Article rating: No rating

In Baan IV, if a link with Financials exists for commissions and rebates, invoices are created directly in the Commission Control System (CMS) module and posted to Financials. As a result, users must specify the ledger accounts that are used for posting commissions and rebates in the Maintain Commission/Rebate Transaction Accounts (tdcms2101m000) session.

In LN, the Maintain Commission/Rebate Transaction Accounts (tdcms2101m000) session is removed from the Commission Control System (CMS) module, because invoices are no longer created directly in the Commission Control System module.

Prepare for Digital Product Passport Compliance with Expert Insight from Lora Cecere
Founder, Supply Chain Insights

With the EU Digital Product Passport (DPP) set to launch in 2027 for initial industries—batteries, consumer electronics, and textiles (footwear and apparel)—businesses are beginning to confront a rapidly evolving compliance landscape. Yet with many requirements still undefined, confusion is widespread.

Lora Cecere's latest research helps organizations cut through the uncertainty by offering actionable insights and a clear, customer-centric, outside-in approach to DPP readiness.

Key Highlights:

  • Start with the Customer in Mind
    Align compliance efforts with market demands to drive growth and gain a competitive advantage.

  • Break Down Silos
    Cross-functional collaboration—across sustainability, supply chain, procurement, and policy is essential for success.

  • Clarify Compliance
    Understand the core elements that define DPP compliance and the practical steps needed to achieve it.

  • Learn from Diverse Approaches
    See how companies are navigating DPP differently, with no one-size-fits-all path to readiness.

  • Adopt GS1 Standards
    Address the existing gap in the implementation of critical global standards for traceability and product information.

Build the capabilities your organization needs today to meet the demands of tomorrow—with a forward-looking, customer-first strategy.
