Lowe's Code REC: REC allowance / rebate reconciliation deduction (Tracking Code REC / DM######P).
Lowe's Tracking Code REC (paired with Deduction # DM + 6 digits and DM + 6 digits + P) is an allowance or rebate reconciliation deduction. Suppliers should request the reconciliation worksheet via LoweLink ticketing to verify that volume tiers, rebate percentages, and prior payments were accurately credited.
