Need guidance on Commissions/Advanced Pricing
Regarding the following from E1: 42: Commissions in Sales (P42460/P42110/P42100/P42120/P4210/P42101/R42800) (Doc ID 625496.1)
Sales Commission (F42005)
Information relating to commissions earned by sales people is written to the Commissions file only at sales update. This is due to the assumption that no commission is truly earned until the sale has completed its cycle. No Accounts Payable or General Ledger records are created for the accrued commissions. These entries must be created manually. Information stored in commissions file can be accessed through the Commission/Royalty inquiry (P42120) or through a user defined report.
Note: If the user wants to create commission entries that will affect the general ledger, then they will need to set up an Advanced Price Adjustment. Usually the adjustment will be an accrual to the general ledger as there is no way as of Xe to write entries directly to the Accounts Payable system. These adjustments will not write to the Sales Commission (F42005) file.
