Core Benefits

  • Simplicity & Control:
    A dedicated commission Suitelet approach avoids cumbersome real-time scripts, allowing you to run calculations exactly when needed.
  • Adaptable to Varying Business Models:
    Whether you sell products, services, or a mix, the product’s custom fields and flexible triggers accommodate a wide range of commission policies.
  • Ease of Maintenance: Centralized setup (single Suitelet and custom record framework) makes the entire solution easier to update, troubleshoot, and support.
  • Role-Specific Insights: Executives can monitor overall commission costs and results; Supervisors can view team performance; Sales Reps can see only their data.
  • Built-In Security & Data Integrity: Locks down sensitive commission information to authorized users and leverages NetSuite’s native roles for data segmentation.
  • Scalable Framework: This framework allows expansion for advanced needs (e.g., more complicated quota structures or custom cost fields) without forking the code base or losing standard product support.

Key Features & Functionalities

Flexible Commission Basis
  • Calculate commissions on revenue, gross profit, or any custom field (e.g., estimated services cost).
  • It supports multiple lines of business, each mapped to different NetSuite fields (Class, custom fields, etc.).
Quota & Tier Management
  • Set tiered commission rates based on quota attainment (monthly, quarterly, annual, or semiannual).
  • To compute quotas, choose incremental (rate increases after crossing each threshold) or bulk total (rate is applied retroactively after the total is known) approaches.
Easy Configuration & Automation
  • Commissions are calculated in a batch process via a single Suitelet.
  • Ability to define custom commission plans with start and end dates, multiple lines of business, and tiered rates in a single place.
  • Option to pay when transactions are created, invoiced, or paid-in-full (user-defined trigger status).
Role-Based Access & Security
  • Custom roles for Executives (full configuration & compute access), Supervisors (team oversight), and
  • Sales Reps (personal commission visibility).
  • Restricts who can run commission calculations and who can see specific commission data.
  • Built-in data protection so sales reps can only see their commission records.
Handling Credits & Adjustments
  • Automatically picks up credit memos or negative transactions to offset previously earned commissions.
  • Manual adjustments (positive or negative) can be entered separately for quota or commission corrections.
Transparent Reporting & Communication
  • Generates commission tracking details (CTDs) for every calculation run.
  • Saved-search–based or custom reports to view amounts owed by employee, date, line of business, etc.
  • Automatic emails can be sent to each sales rep showing their detailed commission breakdown.
