QCommission Integration With NetSuite

Sales commission programs are possibly the most variable programs conducted by a firm. The calculation of sales commissions is a very complex problem, yet most companies use highly manual processes to do the work. With QCommission the entire process of automating sales commissions can be accomplished. These programs tend to vary significantly from industry to industry, and many times within companies in an industry. Sales commission programs tend to be different by employees even within a single firm. Because of the highly variable nature of commission calculations, solutions attempting to solve the problem must be highly sophisticated. At the same time, they should not burden the user with additional complexity in their operations. Sales people work hard to close their sales and expect to get their sales commissions correctly and on a timely basis. They need clear and detailed statements that explain the basis of every calculation. With the advent of Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems, companies are attempting to automate the sales process and customer interactions. With NetSuite CRM+, you have the flexibility to schedule complex commission structures based on how you do business.
