SM Commission Report overview

Sales Manager > Report > SM Reports > SMRC

Function acronym: SMRC

Run this report for current or previously reported commissions by sales representative, invoice or product detail. It can also be run for a specific invoice date. After the actual commission amount is calculated, it is stored in the Sales Commission Setup and Sales Sales Rep Setup records.

With this report, you can print only or use the the option to update commissions.

Commissions are only paid on these types of orders: Stock Order (SO), Direct Order (DO), Counter Sale (CS), Return Merchandise (commissions are reversed), Blanket Release (commissions are paid after invoice processing), or Correction Order (commissions are adjusted based on settings in Sales Commission Setup).

If the Commissions Type assigned in Sales Sales Rep Setup is based on margin, the cost used in calculating the commission amount is determined by the Calc Commissions From option in SA Administrator Options-Products-Costs. This is the only commission calculation using cost.

This report pays commissions according to the parameters set up in Sales Commission Setup. The commission type, set up in PD Pricing Setup- Customer Pricing, determines the commission plan used when you run this report in update mode.

If there is no commission type in PD Pricing Setup-Customer Pricing, the commission type in Sales Sales Rep Setup is used. If no commission type is specified in either PD Setup Pricing Customer Pricing or Sales Sales Rep Setup, commissions are paid only when the commission type is specified in Sales Maintain Commission Entry before you run this report in update mode.

There can be multiple commission types per order for different line items on the order, if both a PD Pricing Setup-Customer Pricing and an Sales Sales Rep Setup record exist for each type.

If no Sales Commission Setup record exists for the commission type and sales representative you are paying, but a matching Sales Commission Setup record exists with a matching commission type and a blank Salesrep field, this record is updated when you run this report in update mode.

If any of these conditions apply to any lines on an order, commissions are not paid and the line does not print on this report:

  • Commission Type in Sales Commission Setup is based on a quota percentage and a Sales Sales Rep Setuprecord does not exist.
  • Commission Type in Sales Commission Setup is based on a quota percentage and the Sales Sales Rep Setup record quota figures total zero (0) for the period fields you are using
  • Sales Commission Setup record does not exist with either a commission type and sales representative match or a commission type with a blank Salesrep field.
  • No Sales Sales Rep Setup record exists for the sales representative.
