Accelerate Agreements Package

Formula-based Agreement Pricing, powered by the Agreements Accelerator, is designed for process manufacturers involved in selling commodities and specialties. It enables the setup and renewal of customer agreements with dynamic formula-based pricing. As part of the multi-annual agreement terms, you can set the frequency of automated price recalculation to reflect changes in market conditions. It also provides forecasting functionality to see assumed agreement and business performance compared through various scenarios.

You can build a library of various formula types designed for specific purposes, such as specific pricing for territories, customer, or product groups. The formula types can be designed with visual experience. A final formula type consists of various inputs and calculation rules. Any given formula can be extended with attributes in order to help manage and govern your formula library as well as workflow capabilities to manage an approval process on top of your formula library.
