Paying Commissions in Payroll
Our system trainer was recently asked how to set up payroll with employees who are paid both a regular pay rate, and are paid a commission. Kevin replied:
This is the #1 question asked of me in the payroll module! There are so many different ways that companies use commissions, and this is how we do it. In Payroll we make the commission as an addition in Benefits and Deductions. I am not aware of any software “automatically” doing a commission because the customer wants to dictate the way it is done.
Setting up Commissions.
Paying the commissions for a salesperson. The exact commission amount was figured out in an excel spreadsheet or database, then the dollar amount entered in Payroll.
