How Commission Works
Commission Calculation
Commissions are calculated based on:
- Product commission rates (set in inventory)
- Sale model rules
- Sale completion status
When Commission is Created
Commission entries are created automatically when:
- A sale reaches a completed status
- The sale has a product with a commission rate
Commission and Payslips
- Commissions start as "unpaid"
- When included in a payslip, they become "paid"
- The payslip records the payment
Promotions and Commission
Sales can be affected by promotions, which may modify commission amounts. The commission log tracks whether each entry was affected by a promotion.
Best Practices
