This subsidy fund is then displayed on the Quote in the:

Amend Subsidy

The subsidy amount can be amended on the Quote either by clicking on the:

Quote to Sales Order conversion

Once the quote is signed the sales order is created with the subsidy funds.

The provisioning team or finance team, depending on the permission * has the option to amend the Subsidy fund if required.

Note: Only users with the permission ‘Update Sales Order Financial Incentives’ can amend applied subsidies.

The subsidy can be amended via

  • Order item tab, click on the respective service line item.

Selecting the Start Date of the Subsidy

On the conversion screen, you can specify the date when the subsidy payment should be commencing. The Delay specified within the quotation will be respected.

Convert to a Customer Subsidy Fund

Once the subsidy is scheduled you will not be able to amend it via the sales order. This will only be possible via Finance transactions in the customer record.

After the subsidy has been converted from the sales order, the customer balance is updated accordingly. The customer balance can be located on the left of the Sales Order screen.
