Multi-Branch Commission lets you calculate staff commission at a business level (across all branches), instead of running payroll separately per location.
First Step: Assign Commission Level in Chain Library
In order for Multi-Branch Commission to be calculated, first you must assign a commission Level to each staff member in the Chain Library under Manager > Chain Library > Staff Library.
From here, click into each staff member's profile and assign a commission level, then click Save.
Setting the Commission level here won't affect branch-specific commission reports, such as the Staff report or the Staff Commission Detail report. These reports will continue to use the commission level set at the branch level under Manager > Staff Members.
Running the Report
Mutli-Branch Commission is contained within Payroll Reports.
To generate the report, go to Manager > Payroll Reports. Next, select the Multi-Branch tab > New Report.
In your Payroll Report settings, ensure that All branches combined is selected under the payroll calculation settings. Then select Run Report.
The commission totals shown in the Wages & Commission table on the next screen are calculated from the total of retail, service, and series sales across locations, based on each staff member’s commission level set in the Staff Library.
Per Branch Commission Reporting
It's important to note that the commission level set for a staff member in Chain Library > Staff Library is used only to calculate commission when the All branches combined option is selected in Payroll Reports.
For all other commission reports, including when the Per branch option is selected in a Payroll Report, the commission set under Manager > Staff Members is used to calculate staff commission.
