Commissions and rebates agreement selection

To calculate the commissions or rebates that can be awarded to a relation for closing a sales order, first the applicable commission/rebate agreement must be found, which you can specify in the Commission Agreement (tdcms0635m000) and Rebate Agreement (tdcms0635m100) sessions.

If more than one commission/rebate agreement is applicable for a combination of sales order and relation, a commission/rebate agreement is selected based on the priorities specified in the Priority 5 fields of the Commissions/Rebates Parameters (tdcms0100s000) session.

Example

The following commission agreements apply:

- Agreement A Agreement B Agreement C
Sold to BP - - -
Relation John   John
Relation Group - G01 -
Project - - -
Item - - X05
Commission Group - - -
Commission Percentage 2% 1.5% 3%
Growing Commission 0% 0% 0%
  • Agreement A specifies the commission for relation John.
  • Agreement B specifies the commission for relation group G01.
  • Agreement C specifies the commission for the combination of John and item X05.

If John is a member of relation group G01 and he sells an item X05, all three agreements can be applied.

Suppose the following commission search priorities are specified in the Commissions/Rebates Parameters (tdcms0100s000) session:

  • Priority 1: Custom/Rel /Projec/Item
  • Priority 2: Rel /Item / /
  • Priority 3: Rel / / /
  • Priority 4: Rel.Gr/ / /

The resulting priorities of the commission agreements will be:

Commission Agreement Type Priority
A Rel 3
B Rel.Gr 4
C Rel / Item 2

Commission agreement C has the highest priority and will be applied: John gets 3% commission.

If John sells an item Y07, only agreement A or B can be applied. Since agreement A has a higher priority than B, John will receive 2%.
