S/A Commission Lines & Groups (SA04)

The S/A Commission Lines and Groups (ibis_sa04) program creates and maintains the commission or commodity codes used to calculate the commission paid to the sales reps. SA04 maintains commission codes when Company Control Initialization (ibis_cc00/Order Entry) 'Code Used for Calculation' is set to commission. When CC00/Order Entry 'Code Used for Calculation' is set to commodity, then SA04 maintains commodity codes.

The commission/commodity codes are used by the following programs:

  • S/A Commission Rates (ibis_sa02) associates the sales rep and commission group with the commission/commodity code.

  • Products (ibis_ici1.im13) view relates the commission/commodity code to the product. When CC00 is set to commission, use the commission field on the product record; when CC00 is set to commodity, use the commodity field on the product record.

Creating a commission/commodity code:

  1. Enter or select from the query the first two characters of the commission OR commodity code in the Commission Line field.

  2. Enter a description of the commission line in the Description field. The description can be a maximum of 25 alpha-numeric characters in length.

  3. Enter or select from the query the last two characters of the commission OR commodity code in the Commission Group field.

  4. Enter a description of the commission group in the Description field. The description can be a maximum of 25 alpha-numeric characters in length.

  5. When all of the information is correct, click Submit to add the commission code to the system.

Deleting a commission/commodity code:

  1. Enter or select from the query the first two characters of the commission/commodity code in the Commission Line field.

  2. Enter or select from the query the last two characters of the commission/commodity code in the Commission Group field.

    Note: You may also use the next record/previous record arrow keys to scroll through the existing commission/commodity codes.

  3. To delete the commission group, click on the Delete icon.

    Note: There are no checks in this program to prevent you from deleting commission codes assigned to sales reps. If a sales rep is assigned to a deleted commission code, the description of the code displays "No Record Found" in SA02.

  4. To delete the commission/commodity code in its entirety, click on the Delete Header Delete Header icon. The entire record (commission line and commission group) is deleted.
