OrderWiz Features

Month-End Processing

The OrderWiz Month-End module used a combination of unpaid invoices, reconciled commission checks payroll to determine the commission income and payroll expenses for the given month.

For unpaid invoice, its commission due is included in the “Commission Due” total.  In a subsequent month when the commission on the invoice is paid, then the commission due amount is zeroed out and the actual commission paid is included in the “Commission Paid” total.  As a result, the “Commission Due” total reflects a change in the total commission due from the previous month.  The “Other Paid” total is the amount of commission payment which is not associated with any invoices.  This could include charge backs such as advertising coops and payments for other services.  The “Commission Due” should be considered a receivable, while “Commission Paid” and “Other Paid” should be considered income.

For unpaid invoice, the commission share due to the sales force is included in the “Sls Share Due” total.  In a subsequent month when the commission on the invoice is paid, then the commission share due to the sales force amount is zeroed out and the actual commission share due to the sales force is included in the “Sls Share” total.  That month or a subsequent month, when the share due to the sales force is distributed, then the actual commission share due to the sales force amount is zeroed out and the actual amount distributed is added to the “Payroll Distributed” total.  The “Sls Share Due” total and the “Sls Share” total should be considered a payable while the “Payroll Distributed” total is an expense.

Description

Closing is Just a Click

Once all of the commission checks have been reconciled and the commission payroll has been completed, then all you have to do is click on the “Close Period” button.

Closing Locks Commission Checks and Payroll

Once a month has been closed, then all of the commission checks that were reconciled that month, along with commission checks used in the payroll are locked.  If the reconciliation on a check needs to be changed, or a commission check needs to be added or remove from the month or from the payroll, then the month must be re-opened.  Only the most currently closed month can be re-opened.  Once it is re-opened, then the next month can be opened.

Discounting Unpaid Invoices

On a vendor by vendor basis, you can create a discount schedule to reduce the commission due on an unpaid invoice.  The invoice could be reduced to zero.  If the invoice is eventually paid, then whatever amount is left in commission due is zeroed out and the amount of the commission paid is included in the “Commission Paid”.
