Hello
I am trying to create a database to calculate commissions on a sale
based on a tiered commission schedule and am having trouble with how
to design the tables and relationships to store the info needed.
Each sale will have 1 or 2 sales reps which are assigned to a tier.
For example:
repA is assigned to Tier 1
repB is assigned to Tier 2
repC is assigned to Tier 3
If repB & repC completes a sale then the following commissions are
paid out
repA receives 4% of sale amount
repB receives 8% of sale amount
repC receives 4% of sale amount
If repA completes a sale then:
repA receives 10% of sale amount
What fields should i include in the table to help determine the
commissions paid out. We may add more Tiers in the future so I would
like to design the structure to be easliy scalable.
Thank you in advance for your time.

I save the commissionRate in case the business rules change
tomorrow
and then you have a form to calculate the commission, and it applies
the 4, 8, 4, 10% rules

Thank you for your response Roger. I am a little confused with the
tblOrderRep, should i include a field for the 2nd rep that might be
part of the sale?
Thank you in advance.
And I would appreciate suggestions from anyone else who may ideas.
Thank you.

I ran into a table that is used a lot. Well less than

this table is used often. The table has 26 fields, 9 indexes

There are no table relationships defined in this database, no

I'm finding this to be extremely difficult to set up. I understand
that Access won't manage the primary key and the cascade updates for a
table. Fine. I tried changing the PK type to number and setting
default value to a UDF that manages the auto-numbering. Access won't
take a UDF as a default value. Okay, I'll use SQL WITHOUT any...

Hi all--
In an attempt to commit an Access MDB to a versioning system (subversion),
I'm trying to figure out how to convert a jet table's metadata to text, a

the svn repository text files.
Has anybody dealt with this?

Hi all,
I have a situation where I have a split database. At the back end, I
need to
- create a new table (I will call it newTable) with the exact fields,
and relationships as another table (let's call it oldTable, and I need
to copy everything EXCEPT the data).
- Then I need to delete oldTable, and rename newTable 'oldTable'

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
