Channel scheme intelligence

Scheme spend you can optimise, manage and settle.

The status quo

Scheme spend is your biggest lever — and your blindest spot.

  • Schemes drafted in spreadsheets and approved over email
  • No view of past performance when designing new schemes
  • Off-invoice discounts that quietly breach the accrued provisions
  • Unused provisions sitting idle in the wrong bucket
  • Credit notes calculated manually in Excel, prone to errors
  • No way to tell which schemes actually drove sales and which didn't

The platform

One system from budget to credit note.

01

Provision management

Load annual budgets, organise them into buckets by type and segment, and move funds where they'll work hardest.

02

Price structure governance

Define list price, on-invoice and off-invoice layers. Every new scheme is checked against the balance available.

03

Scheme builder

Quantity, value, growth, slab, bulk-lifting, reward-point and custom rule-based schemes — configured, not coded.

04

Approval workflows

Role-based, multi-level approvals with a full audit trail. Auto-numbered schemes and generated circulars.

05

Settlement engine

Computes eligibility and payouts against actual sales, then raises credit notes ready for sign-off.

06

Effectiveness analytics

Mid-term tracking, ROI by customer and region, and a clear read on what each scheme returned.

Scheme types

Every scheme your channel already runs.

Each type carries its own rules, eligibility and terms. Reflexion holds them all in one place, so provisions, approvals and settlements work the same way whichever scheme you run.

How it works

A closed loop, not a chain of emails.

  1. 01

    Design

    ML-driven slab recommendations shape the scheme.

  2. 02

    Simulate

    Model sales, credit note and provision impact first.

  3. 03

    Approve

    Role-based Maker-Checker workflows route it right.

  4. 04

    Execute

    Auto-generated circulars and SAP sync, no re-keying.

  5. 05

    Track

    Daily provision and effectiveness visibility.

  6. 06

    Optimise

    A learning engine sharpens the next round of schemes.

What changes

Less reconciling. More deciding.

  • 0

    Provision breaches

    Real-time validation blocks any scheme that exceeds the provision available to it.

  • 100%

    Approval traceability

    Schemes, price changes and circulars all routed through Maker-Checker workflows with a full audit trail.

  • Daily

    CN & provision visibility

    Accrued, utilised and balance provisions, drillable by zone, region, customer and invoice line.

  • Same budget

    Higher sales uplift

    The optimisation engine reallocates discounts across customer clusters within the existing budget.

Recommendations

Know which scheme to run before you run it.

Reflexion learns from past schemes, sales history and remaining provisions to suggest the structure, slabs and payout most likely to hit your target. Model scenarios side by side, then send the winner for approval.

Why Reflexion

What a spreadsheet can't do.

  • 01

    Block only what you'll spend

    Provision is blocked against the scheme you propose to run — not the highest slab in the price structure.

  • 02

    Slabs built on real clusters

    Recommends the optimal slabs from forecasted customer clusters, so targets stay reachable and funding stays tight.

  • 03

    Discount depth, tuned

    Optimises schemes around how sensitive sales are to discount at product and geography level.

  • 04

    Nudges that close the gap

    Prompts customers who are within reach of the next slab, so they push on to close the gap.

  • 05

    Circulars that write themselves

    Generates circulars with terms and conditions that follow the approved scheme structure.

  • 06

    In-kind, tracked end to end

    Tracks procurement of the goods and services promised under an in-kind scheme, so what is paid out matches what was actually delivered.

  • 07

    Debit notes on returns

    When stock comes back, Reflexion posts the matching debit note automatically and corrects the provision with it.

  • 08

    Schemes that improve themselves

    Analyses effectiveness after settlement and feeds what worked into the next round of recommendations.

Industries

Made for categories that run on schemes.

  • Consumer Durables

    White goods, brown goods and appliances, pushed through dealer networks.

  • FMCG

    High-volume schemes across distributors, wholesalers and kirana retailers.

  • Home Improvement

    Paints, wall finishes, lighting, modular kitchens and décor.

  • Agri Inputs

    Fertilisers, crop protection, seeds and equipment, timed to the season.

  • FMEG

    Fans, small appliances, lighting and water purifiers, moved season by season.

  • Building Materials

    Cement, tiles, sanitaryware, plywood, adhesives and hardware.

SAP S/4 HANA integration

Built to work seamlessly with SAP S/4 HANA.

Reflexion sits alongside SAP S/4 HANA rather than in front of it. Data moves both ways, and nothing has to be entered twice.

SAP S/4 HANA Reflexion

Kept current
  • Reflexion reads the data a scheme needs to be designed, costed and tracked.
  • What you see is what SAP already holds.

Reflexion SAP S/4 HANA

On approval
  • What finance approves posts back — no re-keying.
  • Every entry traces to the scheme that produced it.

SAP S/4 HANA stays the system of record throughout. Circulars and notifications go out on their own.

Turn scheme spend into a measurable return.
