Commission Settings

Commission Settings

  • Orchid POS uses gross margin target levels to calculate employee commissions.
    • For example, you can set the system to calculate a 5% commission on any item sold that has a 60% or higher profit margin.
  • You can set multiple levels of commission.
  • If an item is not eligible for percentage commission, you can turn it off in the part’s details page.
  • If an item is eligible for a specific dollar amount commission, you can set the amount in a part’s details page.

Setting Commission Levels

  1. Go to Office > Back Office Settings > Commission Settings.
  2. Enter at least one commission percentage and the profit margin level an item must be sold at to be eligible for that commission.mceclip0.png

  3. Click Update to save the changes.
    • New commission settings will only affect items sold and/or delivered from the time the commission level is created or changed. It will not back date to affect previous sales.
