If your company has not implemented a goal oriented sales plan because of the difficulty in administration, you may change once you see how easy it is with this tool and the computer to assist you.

Rate Determination
There are several rate determination features. The rates for each invoice may be changed during entry. Each customer and inventory item may be assigned a commission rate. The salesperson is provided with four levels of rates (goals or quotas) based upon sales. The goals can be set up monthly or annually as desired. When the salesperson reaches the goal, the rate is automatically changed. If only one rate is used, it will remain in effect regardless of level of sales. If the rates are defined on the customer file, they will be used in place of the normal salesperson rates.

Rate Factors

• Commission amounts are based upon either gross sales or profits.
• Each salesperson can have a different rate plan.
• Items, or classes of items, can be excluded from any commission and special rates set up on others.
• There is an option to set up one rate plan for all sales people or use unique rates for each salesperson.

Sales commission reports may be extracted for any period of time desired, whenever necessary.

Of course the system will also keep track of pertinent information about the salesperson such as name, address, etc. Normally a system this flexible would be difficult to set up and administer, but this one is easy. Although it is a major enhancement with many capabilities, it is not difficult to implement. Once it is set up, you do nothing differently than you are currently doing. The tool comes with detailed documentation (although you probably won't need it) and examples to follow.
