Industry MCG

MCG Logistics is a global leader in parcel and heavyweight freight audit and logistics warehousing services, specializing in reducing freight and parcel costs for its customers. Founded in 1993 and headquartered in Laguna Hills, California, MCG Logistics’ team of industry experts brings a combined 75+ years of heavyweight freight, logistics and parcel shipping experience.

MCG Logistics has complex commission plans for its partners.  Commissions need to be calculated monthly from QuickBooks^® paid invoices.  The commission rates are unique for specific customer jobs for each partner. In the past, all of these calculations were done manually using Excel. A lot of time was spent re-entering paid invoice information from QuickBooks^® to Excel, as well as calculating partner commissions differently for each deal. The manual process lent itself to a high degree of errors, and more importantly, a tremendous amount of wasted company resources.

Bridget Miller, who was responsible for commissions administration, realized the problem with their manual calculation process and found QCommission, which could automate the process. The QCommission implementation team worked diligently with Bridget to configure all of MCG’s unique commission plans.  The programming and implementation was completed within the estimated timeframe, and the QCommission team effectively trained her to use the software going forward. 

Upon completion of the testing and training, she was able to add additional payees, efficiently update percentages where required, import paid invoices from QuickBooks^®, calculate and produce detailed commission statements for all payees.  "The calculation process used to take us about 5 days to complete and now takes just minutes!", Bridget said.  “Our commission structure and reports are now very clear, concise, and accurate.  I would recommend QCommission to any company still in the ‘dark ages’ of manually calculating commissions.”
