Commission Calculator - September 2014 (VBA/Excel) The company that this program was developed for had a very unique, totally custom commission structure. It did
not conform at all to the point of sale system, and there was no way to program the point of sale system with such
unique rules. This structure was maintained due to sales motivation. The commission structure considered tiers,
thresholds, minimums, time clock data, and spifs independently to arrive at a final number. The information
required was available from many different external sources. A program was created to pull relevant data from 12
different Excel workbooks to fill in 34 data points for 100 employees at 46 locations. I believe that each individual
point of data could be collected in 10 seconds, making this take a minimum of 8 hours to complete. This program
was able to complete the same task in 5 minutes.
This was an example commission report that was generated. Some data had to be blurred to protect propriety. This program
worked by opening or exporting each of 12 individual Excel workbooks. Once these were open in the background the functions
of the program could be used to either generate this report for the sales staff or store managers (they were on different
commission structures).
