Commission

Introduction

Commissions can be setup for printers who works with multiple print management companies/external sales team who pass on work in return for a percentage fee based on overall sell price.
This workflow will allow you to see how commissions effect your overall margin. Commission amount is available in the invoice details to help your reconciliation process.

By adding the commission capability, we help you with the following tasks:
  • You can calculate your overall margin when commission fees come into play.
  • Commission amount is available when invoicing to help your reconciliation process.

How to set up commission

Commissions can be configured in 3 places:
  1. Customer Record
  2. Pricelist mapping on customer details
  3. Internal users with the account manager option checked ‘On’
1. Customer Record:
Inside a customer record is a ‘Commission’ field. Enter the commission % here:



2. Pricelist mapping on customer details:

The customer-based setting can be overridden at a customer ‘Price List’ level inside a customer record. Against the pricelist, select ‘Edit Commission Rate’:
