I run a wholesale rep agency that receives commissions from our vendors based on sales within our territory. However we also act as customer service and manage order intake through our own system, ZOHO, for recording the sales. Our Selling price is the same as our Purchasing price and we do not actually take money from our customer nor pay the vendor. We act as a pass through in this regard and use ZOHO to manage sales activity for our clients.

Being able to calculate commissions owed from the vendor by each invoice and then reconcile those commissions once paid, would be a fantastic feature.

Say I record a sale for $100.00. I process an invoice for my customer at $100 and they pay my vendor direct. My commission is 10% on that invoice. The vendor owes me $10 in commission on that invoice. Being able to have that notice of $10 owed and combined with all other commissions owed as a report to be reconciled would save us HOURS. I know there are a lot of other businesses like my own which would benefit immensely from such a feature.
