Architecture
QCommission is a fully web-based SaaS application with the ability to be implemented as a public or private cloud application.
Importing Data
Commissions are primarily calculated on Revenue. Revenues are mostly based on invoices entered into the Wisenet system. The various attributes of invoices can be used in the calculation of commissions. In many situations, sales reps are directly associated with invoices. This can be used in properly crediting the invoice to the sales rep prior to calculating commissions. Other data attributes useful in commission calculations include learner, promotion, course enrolment, etc.
A key requirement is the ability to only import enrolment transactions for the particular commission period that is being currently processed. The QCommission system automatically understands the date range being processed and only brings in the transactions necessary for proper calculations. The system brings in data from Wisenet system and push it into QCommission as transactions. The transactions will be used to do the calculations.
Conclusion
QCommission does a tremendous job, understanding the intricacies of the Wisenet as well as the complications inherent in the data integration process. With this ability it integrates the two systems in such a manner that the complexity to the customer is reduced to a minimal level.
