Sales agreements can be automatically calculated from orders through contracts. This method allows for the actuals to be calculated in real-time, which is useful for tracking performance against the agreement. Additionally, this method allows businesses to quickly adjust their sales agreements based on the actual performance of their orders.

The Minimum Inventory field on the Sales Agreement Product Schedule object is used to store the minimum inventory quantity required for each product in a sales agreement. To make this field visible and editable on the Forecast grid, UC needs to add a custom Minimum Inventory field to the Sales Agreement Product object, which is the parent object of the Sales Agreement Product Schedule object. Then, UC needs to map the two fields using the Field Mapping tool in the Sales Agreement setup. This will ensure that the values entered in the Forecast grid are synced with the values in the Sales Agreement Product Schedule object. Finally, UC needs to add the Minimum Inventory field to the list of available metrics in the Sales Agreement setup. This will allow users to select the Minimum Inventory metric from the dropdown menu on the Forecast grid and see the values for each product and time period.

Explanation
To create a new custom metric on the account product period forecast component, an admin needs to follow these steps:
* Create a custom field on the Account Product Period Forecast object, which stores the forecast data for each product and period combination. The data type of the field should be currency, number, decimal, or percentage.
* Create a custom field on the Account Product Forecast object, which stores the forecast data for each product. The data type of the field should be the same as the one on the Account Product Period Forecast object.
* Map the custom fields on the Account Forecasting page in Setup, by selecting the corresponding dropdown values for Product Period Metrics and Product Metrics. This will make the custom metric available on the Forecast tab of an account, where the user can select it from the metrics dropdown menu. The other options are not correct, as they either involve creating custom fields on the wrong objects, such as Sales Agreement or Account Forecast Adjustment, or they do not map the custom fields
* in the account forecast setting page, which is required to display the custom metric on the account forecast component. References: Map Custom Fields of Account Product Forecast and Account Product Period Forecast, Configure Forecast Metrics and Formulas

Explanation
To ensure that rebates are paid out only on invoices that have status paid, an admin can create a custom field in the Transaction Journal object, and copy the invoice status data from the source system into that field. Then, the admin can use that field as an eligibility condition in the Rebate Types, so that only transactions that match the criteria are included in the rebate calculation. This way, the admin can avoid paying rebates on invoices that are not yet paid, or that are canceled, refunded, or disputed.
