# Flat Rate Job Commissions

> Assign a fixed dollar spiff to a Pricebook job so techs earn a set bonus for selling a specific service or item.

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.

**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.

**Step 3: Create the Estimate or Invoice**

Next, your team will add the job with the assigned commission to a new estimate or invoice for a customer. Make sure to save the estimate or invoice.

**Note:** You must add the customer to the estimate or invoice. You can also optionally add a related job.

**Step 4: View Commission Details on the Record**

Lastly, once the estimate or invoice is saved, open the record and click on the *Cost Basis* tab. Here, you'll see the commission amounts listed, which are automatically assigned to the designated commission recipient.
