Use

All remuneration processes, as well as the fixing of performance-related remunerations and the periodic closure of flat-rate and guarantee remunerations, document the remuneration results in the remuneration and remuneration detail in the commission document.

Integration

The following details are fixed for each individually determined remuneration:

A further important part is the determined liability rule and the information about the actual end date for the liability. The liability rule defines whether and in what form the agent is liable for the fixed remuneration. The liability value is derived from the evaluation basis for the remuneration.

If the remuneration is (proportionally) disbursed in the form of a legal right to future commission, the remuneration refers to the corresponding legal right to future commission agreement.

Prerequisites

You have made the setting for the remuneration agreement (performance-dependent remuneration, flat-rates, guarantee) in Customizing: Commission → Commission Contract → Standard Agreement for Performance-Dependent Remunerations or Standard Agreement for Flat-Rate Remunerations or Standard Guarantee Agreement .

For more information, see the Implementation Guide.

Features

The remuneration and remuneration detail information form the basis for all later analyses regarding the statement of calculation results and the liability of remunerations.

As the properties and methods for the performance-related remunerations and those for the flat-rate and guarantee remunerations are different, remuneration specialization takes place in the commission system.

The actual calculation of the remuneration amount takes place according to basic entitlement determination in multiple partial steps.

Every remuneration determined in this process leads to a remuneration line, in which the entitlement basis is fixed, as are the rules in the commission contract that are the basis of this entitlement.

As well as the actual remuneration amount (entitlement), there are further amount fields in every remuneration for the liability amount, the offsetting amount and the disbursement amount. All amount fields are derived from the results of the individual partial steps (methods). On the basis of the update categories for the individual detail items, it is possible to decide how relevant the result is to entitlement, liability, offsetting or disbursement for every calculation step.

The sequence for the individual partial steps is specified by the commission system. In later versions, it should be possible for customers to tailor the structure of the partial process. Every partial step is executed separately. The result(s) of every partial step are fixed in the remuneration detail and can influence the total result with regard to the entitlement amount, offsettability, secondary liability, liability value and the due date amount. Every partial step can access the results of the partial steps executed earlier.

For reasons of revision security, all calculations executed are fixed, even when no remuneration can be determined or when a determined remuneration is not disbursed.

Activities

The system saves all remunerations in a table.
