Commission Cycle Discount Factor
Module: System Administration
Overview
Use Commission Cycle Discount Factor (program #1584) to enter cycle factors to apply to work order commissions based on cycle fee amounts. In order for SBN to apply a cycle factor from this program, a work order must meet the following conditions:
-
the cycle fee amount on the work order falls within the range defined in this program
-
the work order has personnel (a Salesperson, Installer, or Telemarketer) assigned with the commission type defined in this program
-
the work order price list group includes the price list defined in this program
-
the contract term of the work order contract falls within the range defined in this program
When a work order does not meet these conditions, SBN applies the default cycle factor in the work order Commission Calculation window.
This program relies on the information in other programs, (such as the cycle factor entered in Commission Work Order Types (program #1808) and the cycle fee percentage entered in Commission Items (program #1810)), to interact with the commission calculation process. For more information on commission, see Commission Calculation.
To access this program, select Commission Cycle Discount Factor (program #1584) from the main menu of SBN.
