4.40 Commission Calculation

4.40.0.2

 

We sell kit items that are exploded by component.  We occasionally have to backorder a component of the kit, but we bill for the kit item with the first shipment, leaving just the component on BO, with no charge.

 

The component that is backordered is not calculated in the kit cost at the time the kit is invoiced.  At the time the BO component is invoiced, the cost is written to GL, but it is not included in the gross profit journal, nor does it get included in the saleperson commission report (with either the first or second invoice).  This inflates the commission due, and will require manual review of the commission report.

 

I feel like a broken record comparing everything to 3.71, and I realize some changes may have been made with good reason, but I can't see why this should work like this.  So, again, I will ask, is this WAD or is this a bug?  I hate to be that person who compares everything to the way it used to be - I really do like most of the changes in 4.40, I'm just trying to understand why some things are different and determine if we need to change our procedures to match the new way things are done in MAS.

 

Thanks to everyone for your input and patience.  This 3.71 to 4.40 move is huge!
