First Dollar Calculation is used if sales person commission calculation is based on YTD attainment & rises as attainment increases. When the YTD attainment increases, the commission rate to be paid also increases subsequently and it is much higher than what was paid before. If the Attainment exceeds threshold the commission rate also changes , the difference in commission rates (current YTD attainment – Commission rate paid already ) is applied to all the transactions to recalculate the commissions. This type of calculation can be applied only in Basic Commission Rate Lookup.

There is no right commission rate for a sales rep; it has to be determined on a case by case basis. Typically commission rates have to be determined based on various factors. Some questions to be answered are:

- Should the commissions be based on Revenue or Gross Profit?
- What is the expected for the quota for the sales rep for the year?
- What is the targeted compensation for the sales rep if they met quota?
- Do I want to pay the commission as a flat rate or a tiered rate with attainment?

Based on these questions a commission rate can be determined and assigned to the rep.

25. Can QCommission calculate commission on gross profit?

Yes, QCommission can calculate commissions based on gross profit, in addition to revenue and quantity.  QCommission can use costs from items, estimated, purchase orders and/or bills in a sophisticated manner to figure out gross profit. It can also be configured to figure out job profitability for an entire job.

The resolution is at the company’s discretion. Here are the options in that scenario:

Company calculates the contribution due in those periods and pays it. A) then it forgives that amount or B) it recovers against future commission payments or C) asks the sales rep for a check for the contribution amount

We recommend the following option using our software. Calculate the possible periodic contribution amount and established at as a Draw amount in our software. Then when the commissions fall behind it the software will pass the minimum contribution amount to payroll. It will maintain a balance of such amounts and automatically adjust future payments down by the payments made by the company on behalf of the rep.
