Question? In A/R i would like to know how to pay my salesman on the collection of the money from the sales rather than the Actual Sale of the Invoice from the commission report in O/E.
I must not be the only company that whats to pay on the collection rather than the actual sales date.
I'm missing something in Adagio?
Is there a way to produce this a report from my core programs. Or is this soemthing you generate from Gridveiw Program or from another outside program.
Thanks

Hello Lester,

Adagio SalesAnalysis has a menu choice to mark invoices as paid, based on information it finds in Adagio Receivables. It records the paid date too if it can be determined. Most companies create a custom report or View off the SalesAnalysis database to calculate their commission. In my experience there are too many different ways to calculate commissions (even within a single company!) to try and do more than just provide the basic necessary information.

You should be coming to the AOC!

Hi Les

Paying commissions based on collections rather than billings can get rather complicated, and it's one of the absolute strengths of Adagio that it can handle it well, using a combination of SalesAnalysis and Crystal Reports (or GridView)

For example, do you pay commissions on freight or sales tax? I'll bet not. Therefore, you have to look at the individual line items on the invoice, not just the invoice total.

Also, what if the customer partially pays an invoice? Do you pay commission on the partial payment? You shouldn't. Adagio is smart enough to flag an invoice as paid only when it is FULLY paid.

Do you pay commissions on prepayments or customer deposits? Of course not. Adagio knows this.

Finally, what if the check bounces after you have paid commission? Adagio can re-flag an invoice as unpaid.
