This Flat Rate Job Commission feature simplifies how you manage sales incentives: flat-rate commissions. This model allows you to assign a specific dollar amount to a job, providing a clear and straightforward way to compensate your team. These are often used as spiffs—one-off bonuses for selling a particular service or item.

How It Works

Currently, you can build these spiffs directly into your Pricebook as Flat Rate Jobs, which can contain a single item or multiple items. Once the commission is created in your Pricebook, the workflow for your team is simple.

Here’s the current workflow:

Step 1: Set Up the Job in Your Pricebook First, open your Pricebook and select the flat-rate job you want to edit. Pricebook open with a flat-rate job selected for editing Selecting a flat-rate job to edit in the Pricebook Flat-rate job details in the Pricebook editor Editing flat-rate job settings in the Pricebook Flat-rate job edit view before assigning a commission Step 2: Assign the Commission to the Job Secondly, in the job’s edit section, you’ll enter the commission amount directly in the Flat Rate Commission field. Once you’ve made your changes, save the Pricebook.
