Sales Commissions
With Freedom Series/ec21 you get an excellent sales commission system. The system allows for varying rates by customer, sales representative, product, location, or division. In addition, the Freedom Series/ec21 Sales Commission system can handle temporary commission rates and spiffs by dollar volume or units sold.
Sales or Gross Margin
Freedom Series/ec21 lets you choose to pay commissions based on sales volume or gross margin dollars generated. If you choose, a sliding scale of rates can be set up by gross margin range but that are applied to the sales dollars. For example, you may pay 5% on the sale if the margin is greater than 25%, but only 3% if the margin is less than 25%.
Up to 3 Sales Representatives Per Order
Up to three sales representatives can be paid for a single sale and the commission rate can vary by sales representative. For example, for the same sales order the primary sales representative may get 4% of the order value while the secondary only gets 1.5%.
Base Rate and Exceptions
Freedom Series/ec21 sales commissions are designed so that you can control commissions on an exception basis. Normally you would choose a method (sales or gross margin) and a base rate at the company or location level. Once you define your normal commission method, you can describe exceptions. You might be paying a new sales representative less because of a guarantee, or you might be paying more on some slow moving items, or you might be passing along a vendor's spiff--Freedom Series/ec21 can handle all of these and many more exceptions.
Returns and Credits Net Out
When calculating commissions, Freedom Series/ec21 automatically calculates a negative commission on returns and credits issued. These negative commission dollars reduce the total commission due the sales representative.
