      • Percent of Rates
        The commission will be a percentage of the total rental rate.
      • Flat Rate per Unit of Measure
        The commission will be a flat dollar amount for every unit of measure.

    • Territory ID
      The territory ID automatically fills based on the salesperson ID.
    • Percent of Sale
      Enter the percent of sales, if you chose the percent of rates commission method.
    • Flat Dollar Amount
      Enter the flat dollar amount, if you chose the flat rate unit of measure commission method.
    • Comm Percent
      Enter the percentage of the commission that will go to each salesperson. For example, if there are two salespeople, and the commission amount to be distributed is $300, entering 60 for Salesperson A and 40 for Salesperson B will distribute $180 (60% of $300) to Salesperson A and $120 (40% of $300) to Salesperson B. The Comm Percent for all salespeople must add up to 100%.
