This module provides the base functions for commission operations to enable the following:

  • Define agents with their commissions
  • Assign agents to partners
  • Create settlements to summarize commissions for certain periods

You can define which base amount is going to be taken into account: net amount (based on margin) or gross amount (line subtotal amount).

Additional feature provided by this module:

  • Adds a grouped settlement report by date.

AI-generated from the code · Odoo 17.0

Define commission rules for agents, assign agents to customers and products, and generate commission settlements with printable reports.

This module adds the building blocks for managing sales commissions in Odoo. You can create commission types under Commissions > Configuration > Commission types, choosing either a fixed percentage or a percentage that varies by amount sections, and deciding whether the commission is calculated on the sale/invoice amount or on the margin (amount minus cost).

  • Mark a contact as an agent and set their default commission and settlement period (bi-weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual).
  • Assign agents to customers and mark products as free of commission.
  • On sales or invoice lines, agents and their commission amounts are shown, with a status indicating whether the line is commission-free, has no agents, or how many agents it has.
  • Use the Settle Commissions wizard to create settlements for a chosen date and agents; the system groups lines by agent, company and currency and creates settlement records.
  • Settlements show the agent, period, lines and total, can be cancelled, and are tracked with messages and activities.
  • Two PDF reports are available: a Settlement report and a Grouped settlement report by date.
  • Access is controlled by User and Manager groups, and settlements are filtered by company.
