+====== TWBS Chargeback Processing ======
+===== Introduction =====
+Designed for distributors who sell to retail environments, Chargeback Processing enables SAP Business One users to track customer chargeback transactions, reduce chargeback processing time and collect on more unauthorized chargebacks. Chargeback Processing can be used by any company whose customers take unauthorized invoice deductions.
+To efficiently process as many as hundreds of chargebacks a month, distributors need the ability to record partial payments and automatically generate a chargeback entry in their general ledger. Chargeback Processing for SAP® Business One enables them to do this and more.
+==== Prerequisites ====
+  * Language Support
+    * TWBS Chargeback Processing screens currently support only the English language option.
+  * Installation Component Checks
+    * TWBS Chargeback Processing installation is fast and simple. During installation, the TWBS Chargeback User Guide and relevant files required for the functioning of the product will be copied into the AddOns directory.
+    * TWBS Chargeback Processing is a client side installation and needs to be installed on each client. During the installation process, TWBS Chargeback Processing will check for the following components:
+    * **MDAC 2.6**: Setup checks to see if you have MDAC 2.6 installed on the client. If it cannot find MDAC 2.6 installed, setup will install it for you. You will be prompted to reboot at the end of the install. Please reboot.
+    * **Microsoft .NET Framework Version 2.0 Redistributable Package**: Checks if the client has the Microsoft .NET Framework Version 2.0 Redistributable Package installed. If it cannot find the package, setup will install it for you.
+**Installation Process**
+<WRAP center round info>
+The TWBS APP add-on will **only** be available for installation through the SAP® Business One Server management of extensions for lightweight deployment method. Use of this method requires that the SAP® Business One System Landscape Directory be installed on the SAP® B1 Server.

+  * Launch the Chargeback Server Properties screen by selecting the **Chargeback Server** **Information** menu option under the **Administration** > **Setup** > **Chargeback Processing** menu groups. \\ {{::cb:cbserverconfig.jpeg?560x328}}
+  * Click the **Enter/Edit CB Tax Code** button to load the Tax Code entry form. This designated tax code will be used to create each line item in the A/R Invoice and the Credit Memo documents. This code will most likely be the tax exempt code in your SAP® Business One system.
+  * Enter the desired Tax Code. Click the **Save** button. \\ {{::cb:cbimage28.jpeg?275x110}}
+==== Chargeback Configuration Steps ====
+  - The next step is to create a new Document Numbering Series for the Chargeback Invoice. On the SBO main menu click **Administration** > **System Initialization** > **Document** **Numbering** > **A/R Invoice** (Double Click)
+    - The Name of the new series should always be **CB.** The TWBS Chargeback Processing application will only recognize a series with that name. \\ {{::cb:cbimage29.jpeg?575x366}}
+  - Repeat same steps for the A/R Credit Memo. The Name of the new series should always be **CB.** The TWBS Chargeback Processing application will only recognize a series with that name.
+  - **Setup Credit Card Payment Methods**: Please enter at least one credit card payment type using the window under **Administration** > **Setup** > **Banking** > **Credit Card** **Payment Methods**. This is standard SAP® Business One functionality and should be entered per your company’s policies.
+  - Create a Clearing Account and a Chargeback GL Accounts using standard SAP® Business One Functionality under **Financials** > **Chart of Accounts** window. At this point it is beneficial to look at how these accounts will be used:
+    - **Clearing Account:** \\ This account is used as a “pass through” account to record the following:
+      - The write off of the chargeback amount from the original invoice (this is booked as a debit to the account during the adding of an incoming payment with a chargeback).
+      - The Chargeback amount on a new A/R Service invoice (this is booked as a credit to the account when the service invoice is created automatically upon adding an incoming payment with a chargeback).
+      - This account should always be zero as the above two entries are created simultaneously upon the adding of an incoming payment with a chargeback. \\ <WRAP center round info>There are no system limitations as to which bucket this account should fall under. Typically this is recorded under “Revenues” or “Cost of Sales” sections of your chart of accounts. It is up to the user to create it as he/she sees fit in a manner that is consistent with internal policies.</WRAP>
+    - **Chargeback Account:**
+      - This account records the “Approved” chargeback amounts when the A/R Credit Memo is recorded to write off the Chargeback invoice.
+      - These accounts will be specified on the different Chargeback Types that the user will define. The Clearing account will be used in the journal entry for the incoming payment and in the journal entry upon the generation of the Service A/R Invoice. The Chargeback account will be used in the creation of the A/R Credit memo once the Chargebacks have been approved.\\ <WRAP center round info>There are no system limitations as to which bucket this account should fall under.

+    * **Pending** - This is the default value for all chargeback transactions when it is entered into the system
+    * **Approved -** If a user “approves” a chargeback transaction, it means that they have decided to accept the chargeback and remove the amount from the BP’s A/R Balance. An A/R Credit memo is generated to close out the original service invoice created as a result of the chargeback transactions.
+    * **Decline** - If a user “declines” a chargeback transaction, it implies that the chargeback is not valid and will remain on the BP’s A/R balance. The chargeback A/R invoice will remain open.
