Setting up the Custom Commission Report in Report Pro
Things to Note
-
Use this report to help calculate the exceptions in commissions paid on parts, less sales tax, shop fees, and sublets. The exception is parts that cost you over the configured cost.
-
If the part costs less than the configured cost, the commission would be paid on the entire sale price. Example; your configured cost threshold is $50.00 and your cost is $49.00, you sell it at $100.00 and the technician was on a 20% he would be paid $20.00.
-
If the part costs more than the configured cost, the technician would be paid on the profit of the part. Example; your configured cost threshold is $50.00 and your cost is $51.00, you sell the part for $100.00 the technician was on a 20% he would be paid on the $49.00 profit at 20% he would make $9.80.

-
This helps protect from the more expensive parts and provides incentive to employees to research and find the best possible cost because the most profitable items are usually the smaller maintenance parts. This allows technicians to be rewarded for finding and recommending small items that normally do not have a lot of labor added to them. If they are paid on just labor these items will get overlooked.
