Sales Commission
- Sales commission in a POS system refers to a system in which an employee / other staff is rewarded with a percentage of the sales they generate. This is typically used in businesses where sales are a significant portion of revenue, such as restaurants, textile stores, salons, and other service-based industries.
- In a POS system with a sales commission, each employee / other staff is assigned a unique code or name, which allows the system to track their sales. When a sale is made, the user should assign the employee / other staff for the receipt, then the system records the transaction and attributes it to the employee who made the sale. The Back Office web portal then calculates the commission owed to the employee based on the agreed-upon percentage rate or the number of receipts.
- The employee commission feature is often used as a motivator for employees to increase their sales performance, as it provides them with a financial incentive to sell more. Additionally, it can be used as a way to reward top-performing employees and retain talent within the organization.
Sales commission can be calculated via the Back Office web portal based on the agreed-upon percentage rate or the number of receipts. Sales commission reports can be downloaded via PDF or print.
