Commission Scale

Break down the different types of commission scales you would like to use for your staff, ThermoGrids Commission scale is based of the Salesperson/Person who created the order and has an option to split commission if the Sale was generated by a service tech.

Each Item in your catalog Can be edited to include commission or not and your company settings will have a maximum commission amount.  That amount should match the largest amount on your commission scale, this will ensure that your items are being calculated to maintain a GPM even with paying commission.  

 

If you want to give 10% commission on everything sold no matter what.

Discount Percentage = 1

Sales Only % = .1

If you want to give 10% if the sales rep discounts less than 10% and 5% if they discount 20% and nothing above that.

Discount Percentage = .1

Sales Only % = .1

Discount Percentage = .2

Sales Only % = .05

If you want to give 10% if the sales rep discounts less than 10% and 5% if they discount 20% and nothing above that and if it's a tech lead the tech gets 2% and it goes against the sales rep.

Discount Percentage = .1

Sales Only % = .1

Sales w/ Tech % = .08

Tech % = .02

Discount Percentage = .2

Sales Only % = .05

Sales w/ Tech % = .03

Tech % = .02

 

 

Bonus Scale

If you want to pay on Gross Margin or bonus on it you can do it here.

If you want to pay sales rep 2% if GM is over 55%

Gross Margin Percentage = 0.57

Sales Only % = 0.00

Sales w/ Tech % = 0.00

Tech % =  0.00

Gross Margin Percentage = 1.00

Sales Only % = 0.02

Sales w/ Tech % = 0.00

Tech % =  0.00

Example

If you want to pay sales rep 2% if GM is over 55% only if it is a tech lead.

Gross Margin Percentage = 0.57

Sales Only % = 0.00

Sales w/ Tech % = 0.00
