Commissions based on Product Group

Half baked idea from far left field....could get really messy if lots of groups and/or reps but:
Create a different rep code for each rep for each group. Like Reps 1 thru 5 and groups A thru E:
1A
1B
1C....
2A
2B....

and assign rates to each. Still would still mean manually getting the right rep code on each line but if the actual rep/group codes were somewhat descriptive of the groups it would be easier to spot than a rate difference. Commissions reporting would be a little messier to consolidate for a given rep but nice in that they would have product group level totals. If you coded the group part the same as the actual product group code you could have an easy audit report to spot inconsistancies at the end of the day well before invoicing.

Subject: [Vantage] Commissions based on Product Group


Is there anyway to setup the system to decide a line's commission by
product group? This is our commission structure here and it means
manually changing the commission on every line item.

Anyway to automate?

Thanks,
Ben

We are in the same situation. I am currently writing a crystal report based on Product group. If you would like, when I'm done I'll send you a copy. I hope to have it complete by the end of next week.
