Answer: Yes, you can, but not with GP’s built-in capabilities. Dynamics GP itself only allows you to assign a single salesperson to a customer, which means that if you want to quickly, easily, and accurately assign multiple salespeople to one customer in GP, you’ll need to use a commission calculation solution like Commission Plan.
Example: For Customer X, you want to pay commissions to your internal rep as well as to a broker. Using Commission Plan, you can assign both earners to Customer X in just a few clicks. You could even automate the assignments, so that when your order processing people create a sales document, they won’t need to worry about who was involved in the sale. They’ll simply enter the orders and boom! every earner’s commissions will get calculated accurately behind the scenes.
If you want different calculations on commission splits, you can do that, too. Say you want to split a commission between an account manager (40%), a customer service rep (10%), and a salesperson (50%). You could use Commission Plan to automate each of those calculations for each employee involved. Then, when it comes time to issue your employees’ commission payments, all your calculations will be done for you. What a relief!
