How To Set Up Commissions In SubcontractorHub


Follow the steps below to set up commissions for SubcontractorHub users and roles.


Step 1: From the main menu, select “Commissions”.

Step 2: Create a new commission by clicking “New Commission”.


Step 3: Choose whether the commission is based on a role, profile, or Setter/Closer by selecting the appropriate option.

Precedence is given first to Setter/Closer commissions. If a user is assigned both a role-based and a user-specific commission, the user’s commission will take precedence over their role’s commission. The user will receive only their user-assigned commission.

Select the user, role, or profile to which the commission is assigned, and choose what the commission is for, the job type, commission type, status, and commission value. Then click “Create Commission” to save.


Note: You can now set your commission using the "Use Formula" option. Simply check the box to add your commission formula.

Select your Variable for the formula from the available list

To add additional variables to the formula, use the Operator to select another variable.


Your Formula Equation for commission will be displayed as shown below

Choose your Job Type, select the status, and click "Create Commission".


Step 4: Once added, commissions can be viewed and edited from the “Commissions” list. 


Note 2: If you select commission by setter/closer, you can now set the setter commission separately. The percentage allocated to the setter is automatically deducted from the closer’s commission, which is initially set at 100%.
