Commission Payments

The Commission Payments Report provides a summary of the commission due to your employees. The details of this report are based on:

• Commissions defined in Settings > Module Settings > Commissions
• Commission scheduled applied to users in Settings > Users > Commission
• Based on invoices and sales orders
  

When you click on the Commission Payments report link on the report list, you are presented with several filter options that you can set before opening the report. These options are defined in the Options section below.

The available information includes:

• Commission Details icon – clicking this button opens the Commission Details window.
• Document # – the sales order or invoice number where the commission was applied
• Customer and Project Name – the name of the customer and the associated sales order or project
• Date Paid – if a commission payment has been made, the date of the payment is displayed
• Check Number – the number of the check entered when a commission payment is made
• Check Comment – a description of the payment. The explanation might be generated by the system or entered by the check processor.
• Amount – how much commission was paid
  

Click on either the Commission Details icon or the customer/document details to open the Commission Details window.

Export

Exporting the Mix Analysis report into a spreadsheet program is simple, using the instructions available here: Dashboard > Exporting.

Here is a list of the useable export field names, along with a description

• c_ReportDisplay – the sales document number and Customer/Job Name.
• c_ReportDisplay_Full – another iteration of the sales document number and Customer/Job Name.
• payAmount – the amount paid to date
• payCkNumReference – the check number
• payComment – the comment entered on the payment
• payDate – the date of the payment
• SD_CompanyInfo::LOGO – this is the field container that holds your company logo. iPoint can’t export images to Excel, so this is a useless field for your export.

Note: any field that starts with an s_ is a summary field and is not useful when exporting to Excel. Additionally, the Sort fields help iPoint organize the PDF report and will not be helpful in an Excel report.
