Scenario: Some salespersons will get a commission on a particular item and other salespersons will not. To accomplish this, one commission record for the item needs to be setup for a “House” salesperson and additional commission records need to be setup for the salespersons who will receive commissions for the specified item.
Go to:
-
Order Processing (Module 6)
-
Commission Maintenance File (Task 24)
- Add New Commission Record (Sub-task 1)
-
Commission Maintenance File (Task 24)
Below is a sample commission record which will allow the commission setup for the salesperson in the Salesperson/Technician Master File (Task 20 in Order Processing module) to be overridden (this prevents salespersons from being awarded commissions for the item specified):
01 Cust/Ship-to: 999999999
02 Item #/Class: 617-727 Paper – Blue
03 Salesperson #: 50 House Account
04 Item Cost %: 0.00
05 Item Cost $: 0.00
06 Commission %: 0.00
Being the record has Salesperson #50 specified, when the item is sold and the invoice posted, Salesperson #50 will receive credit for the sale and since the commission % rate is zero, a zero commission will be computed for the item on Commission report: Commissions – Salesperson/Customer/Invoice # (found in 6-13-11 – COMDON).
Below is a sample commissions record for a salesperson who WILL receive commission for the same item.
01 Cust/Ship-to 0000000000
02 Item #/Class: 617-727 Paper – Blue
03 Salesperson #: 15 Michael West
04 Item Cost %: 0.00
05 Item Cost $: 0.00
06 Commission %: 9.00
