Rules for Selecting the Appropriate Commission (SA02)

The formula for selecting the appropriate Commission is:

  • If Invoice Discount % (or Profit %) is greater than or equal to the Level 1 %, use that Commission Rate; otherwise go to next level. (If Level 16 is reached and the test still fails, then the Level 16 rate is used.)

  • Note: Commission is calculated on each Product detail line. Commission Rates may vary from Commodity to Commodity on any one Invoice.

Example 1: Commissions dependent on Sales Discount

Sales Rep: ********
Commission Group: ******
Sales Source: *
Order Type: ALL
Commission/Commodity: ****
Sales/Gross Profit: Sales

  Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Level 4 Level 5 Level 6
Discount / GP%: 50.00 40.00 30.00 20.00 10.00 0.00
Commission % Rate: 2.00 3.00 4.00 5.00 6.00 7.00

This example applies to all Sales Reps, all Sales Sources, all Order Types, all Customers with a Commission Group of ****** in SU13, and all commodities (i.e. Products). To apply this example,

If Sales Discount % equals: 60% then the Commission Rate: 2%
  45%   3%
  20%   5%
  0%   7%

Example 2: Commission is ONE set rate, regardless of the Invoice Discount

Sales Rep: ********
Commission Group: ******
Sales Source: *
Order Type: ALL
Commission/Commodity: ****
Sales/Gross Profit: Sales

  Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Level 4 Level 5 Level 6,7...
Discount / GP%: 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00
Commission % Rate: 5.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00

This example applies to all Sales Reps, all Sales Sources, all Order Types, all Customers with a Commission Group of ****** in SU13, and all commodities (i.e. Products). To apply this example,

If Sales Discount % equals: 60% then the Commission Rate: 5%
  45%   5%
  20%   5%
  0%   5%

If the Sales Discount is equal to or greater than zero, the Commission Rate is equal to 5%.

Example 3: Commission is based on Invoice Profit Margin

Sales Rep: ********
Commission Group: ******
Sales Source: *
Order Type: ALL
Commission/Commodity: 01**
Sales/Gross Profit: Gross Profit

  Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Level 4 Level 5 Level 6,7...
Discount / GP%: 50.00 40.00 25.00 10.00 1.00 0.00
Commission % Rate: 7.00 6.00 5.00 4.00 3.00 0.00

This example applies to all Sales Reps, all Sales Sources, all Order Types, all Customers with a Commission Group of ****** in SU13, and all Products in Product Line 01. To apply this example,

If Gross Profit % equals: 60% then the Commission Rate: 7%
  20%   4%
  10%   4%
  0%   0%
