Item Wise Commission(Ref. EMM CEE CEE SPORTS)
Some times commission is paid at different rates on different items. In such a case commission rate should be entered with each item while making an invoice. The required column for entering commission is "ICOMMRATE". If you want to deduct discount from Gross amount on which commission is to be paid then you must use BOTTOM_DISCOUNT columns to specifying discount on each item. Commission shall be calculated on (Quantity * Rate)  - ((Quantity * Rate) * Discount / 100).

Applying commission on each bill & credit to Agent Account while posting:
Some times you may want to credit the commission to the agent account while making an invoice. For this purpose you should specify *Comm* in DocProperties. You must also open the agent name prompt in DocInputs. In this case when you save an invoice you will be shown an additional window in which agent's name will be specified. You will be also prompted to enter commission rate. Based on this commission amount will be calculated and a linked voucher shall be generated. You should specify the account for commission in "DocCodeComm" in DocTypes. If commission amount is 0 no linked voucher shall be generated. You may specify any amount as commission if commission rate is 0(Zero) or not specified.



When voucher is passed and the agent's account is linked with TDS you will be further asked if you want to mark this payment for TDS or you may deduct the TDS in the same voucher.

Amount on which commission is calculated can be assessable value or sale amount or bill amount. This is determent from the relevant setting in commission module as discussed above.

If TDS is being deducted "TDS Payable" account must exist in master.
