Commissions On Quotes



Overview

This module explains how to add and manage commissions for contacts directly on a quote in OpsDriver. Commissions set at the quote level automatically carry over into the booking, ensuring accuracy and eliminating duplicate entry.


1. Purpose of Commission Tracking


Use this feature to:

  • Record and assign commission amounts tied to quotes

  • Track which contacts helped generate a sale

  • Ensure transparency and compensation accuracy across your sales or affiliate channels


2. Where to Find the Commission Section


Step-by-Step Instructions:

  1. Open an existing quote.

  2. Scroll down to find the Commission Section.

  3. Click Add Commission.


3. Adding a Commission to a Quote


Instructions:

  1. Select a contact from your organization’s contact list.

  2. Enter the commission amount:

    • Currently supports flat-rate commission entries (e.g., $100).

  3. Click Save.


The commission will now be associated with this quote and appear in the quote details.


4. Carrying Commission into a Booking


When the quote is converted to a booking:

  1. Follow your standard Convert to Booking steps:

    • Select contact

    • Choose quote variation

    • Assign salesperson

    • Confirm payment details

  2. After conversion, scroll to the Commission Section of the booking.

  3. You’ll see that the commission has been carried over automatically.


No manual re-entry is needed.


5. Example Workflow

  • A trip is quoted for a school heading to Six Flags.

  • A sales affiliate (Alisa) helped secure the deal.

  • You assign her a $100 commission directly on the quote.

  • Upon conversion, that commission flows into the final booking without any extra effort.


6. Best Practices

  • Always assign commissions before converting a quote to avoid extra steps.

  • Use consistent naming or tagging conventions for commission contacts.

  • Keep flat-rate agreements documented to reduce discrepancies.
