Product transfer account adjustment transaction APIs
Product Transfer Account Adjustment—a key transaction used to ensure the financial records accuracy and reconcile discrepancies between invoices, payments, and outstanding balances. The product transfer account adjustment is primarily used by distributors to submit chargeback claims to manufacturers after a product has been sold and shipped to eligible customers at contracted prices. It is most commonly associated with chargebacks, where the distributor has sold a product at a lower contract price than the acquisition cost. In such cases, the distributor submits a product transfer account adjustment to claim reimbursement for the difference. Manufacturers then respond with a response to product transfer account adjustment to reconcile and approve the chargeback.
These adjustments may be necessary due to a range of reasons, including pricing discrepancies, contractual updates, quantity mismatches, or returns. The product transfer account adjustment ensures that both parties maintain accurate, transparent financial records by updating the appropriate accounts—such as accounts receivable—to reflect the corrected balances.
Once the product transfer account adjustment is sent by the seller (usually the distributor), the recipient (manufacturer) returns a functional acknowledgment to confirm successful receipt of the transaction.
By automating these financial adjustments through EDI, trading partners can reduce manual errors, accelerate the reconciliation process, and maintain financial alignment across the supply chain.
