Hello<p> I am developing a database to calculate commissions on a
sale for each rep involved in the sale and their uplines.
</p>
<p>Below is the database structure and the commissions schedule. I am
having
trouble designing a way to calculate the commissions for each rep and
upline.</p>
<p>Below is a list of the business rules for calculating the
commissions.
<br>
1) each sale will have only 1 or 2 reps involved with the sale
<br>
2) each sale will have only 1 sale originator (flag in tblOrderRep)
<br>
3) each rep involved with the sale will receive a commission on the
sale based on the commission matrix below
<br>
4) the uplines of the rep that is flagged as the sale originator will
receive a commission on the sale based on the matrix below
<br>
<br>
For example:
- Roger & Matt completed a sale together.
- Roger & Matt are both Tier 2 reps.
- Roger was the sale originator
- Allen is Roger's upline
- Roger & Matt will split the 8% commission for the tier 2 reps and
Allen will receive 6% commission on the sale.
