Navigating the SPA PDF via Collaborator

Each special pricing agreement (SPA) has a SPA PDF available for you to view and download. The SPA PDF summarizes the information in your contract in a standardized, easy to read format.

SPA PDF tab

The SPA PDF displays the following:

  • Special Pricing Agreement title: A document title of Special Pricing Agreement alongside the dates of the contract.
  • Reference and Agreement name: Displayed below the title for easy reference.
  • Version and Period: Indicates whether changes have been made to a previous iteration of the SPA. A new version (i.e. Version 2 onwards) is used when terms are changed for an existing SPA, when those terms apply to all transactions (past and future), for example to fix terms on an incorrect SPA. A new period (i.e. Period 2 onwards) is used when terms are changed for an existing SPA, when those terms apply to transactions from this date forward, for example if a distributor renegotiated a higher mechanism value on a product.
  • Parties: The Manufacturer, Distributor, and End-customer(s) on the contract.
  • Details: The basic elements of the contract, including reference, agreement name, delivery types and the dates the agreement is valid for.
  • Distributor terms: The calculation method (support mechanism), pricing, and other details specific to the distributor on the contract.
  • End-customer terms: The calculation method (pricing mechanism), pricing, and other details specific to the end-customer on the contract.
  • Branches: The distributor branches which will receive support.
  • Products: The individual products, categories or groups which will receive support.
  • Notes: Other headers below the Products section will be named based on relevant information added by your trading partner (Distributor/Manufacturer). This could include terms and conditions, payment conditions, or other information relevant to the SPA.
