What Is an Order Simulator (Rebates)?
An order simulator is a tool that projects the rebate impact of a potential purchase before it is placed - showing whether an order would cross a threshold, reach the next tier, or unlock a higher rebate band, and what that is worth. It lets a partner test "what if I buy this?" against every vendor's program rules.
Why it matters to partners. Near the end of a period, the question is always whether one more order pays for itself in rebate. Guessing leaves money on the table or wastes purchasing on bands that won't move. The order simulator answers it precisely: it applies each vendor's rules to a proposed order and shows the rebate outcome, so buying decisions are made on numbers, not instinct. It is the engine behind many next best actions.
