Configure Commission Slabs

Businesses can calculate commissions based on total service sales rather than just post-deduction revenue. This enhancement is particularly beneficial for industries with fixed costs, such as laser services, ensuring fair and accurate payouts while incentivizing providers effectively. 

Scenario: A spa uses a slab-based commission structure for their laser technicians, with the following slabs:

  • $12,000 - $14,999.99: 3% commission

  • $15,000+: 6% commission

Technicians should qualify for commissions when their service sales reach these thresholds. However, the commission payout is typically based on service sales minus deductions.

  • A technician's service sales total $13,000, with $2,000 in deductions. 

  • Post-deduction model (Existing): The technician qualifies for a 3% commission on $11,000 (payout: $330).

  • Pre-deduction model (New): The technician qualifies for a 3% commission on $13,000 (payout: $390).

Steps to configure commission slabs:

  1. Navigate to Employee > Payroll and Commissions > Commissions at the center level.

  2. To configure how commission slabs are matched, use the Match commission slabs after deductions to calculate commissions toggle:

    • Off (Default Setting) – Commission slabs are matched after deductions.

    • On – Commission slabs are matched before deductions.

  3. Save your changes.

To disable the setting, switch off the Match commissions slabs before deductions to calculate commissions toggle.

Impacts and considerations

  • Once enabled, the Payroll Summary Report will reflect commissions calculated before deductions, ensuring greater transparency in compensation.
