Sell-Thru Commission & Rebates Management App for Dynamics 365 Business Central

Introduction

The Sell-Thru Commission & Rebates Management App is a Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central extension designed to help distributors and channel organizations manage supplier-funded promotions. It replaces manual spreadsheet tracking with automated sales eligibility, capped-unit enforcement, rebate accruals, and claim preparation directly within the system.

The app preserves core inventory cost integrity by handling rebate impacts through reporting and dedicated accounting entries rather than altering weighted-average costs. This gives sales, finance, and operations teams real-time visibility into adjusted promotional margins and streamlined financial reconciliation.

Summary
