Commission Calculation across multiple staffs
When multiple staff members are assigned commission rates for the same product, the system first calculates a single total commission pool for the sale. This commission pool represents the maximum commission available to be shared among all tagged staff. Commissions are then distributed based on the following logic:
- For same commission rates
- Total commission pool = 1 salesperson’s commission rate * sale without tax
- Individual commission = (Total commission pool) ÷ no. of salespersons
- For different commission rates
- Total commission pool = Highest commission rate * Sale without tax
- Individual commission = Individual share of commission * Total commission pool
Commission rules configuration for same commission rates:
1. The maximum total commission pool across all tagged sales person is calculated using the commission rate of one of the salespersons.
2. The maximum total commission pool is then equally distributed between the staffs.
Commission rules configuration for different commission rates:
1. The system first determines the highest commission rate configured among the participating staff groups. The maximum total commission pool across all tagged sales person is calculated using this “highest commission rate”.
2. The maximum total commission pool is then distributed between the staffs based on their commission percentage shares.
- Determine each staff’s percentage share of total commission pool
- Calculate Final Commission
