Commission

[#1]

How about a field to compute and summarize commissions per opportunity and sales completed.  Reps could see how much commission is on the line and managers could track commissions by rep and product line.

I've been asked for this on more than one occasion.

Guess it comes under the general heading of, "can we have some basic math functions in fields"

The issue I see is that there are so many ways companies calc this: % of total, % of margin, sliding scales depending on discount, one % till hit target, then a different one, even different calculations for different products, etc...

It's doable in an add-on for a specific set of scenarios, but  to add enough options for a majority of ACT! users would make it a really complex feature to use and setup

There is already a field for everything except commission.  We just need a field next to total cost to plug in a commission %.

You can create an extra field in Define Fields... but you'd need an add-on to do the calculation if you wanted it automatically entered
