Accrual Record is intended to solve the problem when it would be handy to calculate and store the compensation accruals or payouts even on a more granular level.

For example, if you need to pre-calculate the compensation money not only for the whole group of sellers, but also per each seller, you can use the Accrual Record to store such detailed information.

Accrual Records allow to store even more fine-grained compensation results than the Compensation Record. If, for example, the Compensation Record contains a group of sellers and you need to store separately a compensation amount per specific seller, you can store such numbers into the Accrual Records.

Sample hierarchy of the objects:

  • Line item #1 – negotiated for a group of sellers with quarterly payout dates. So we will calculate and approve the compensation separately in 4 compensation records.

    1. Compensation Record – for Q1, for the whole seller group

      • Accrual Record – for Q1, for seller A

      • Accrual Record – for Q1, for seller B

      • Accrual Record – for Q1, for seller C

    2. Compensation Record – for Q2, for the whole seller group

      • …​

  • Line item #2 – negotiated for 2 sellers with annual payouts.

    1. …​

The Payout Records can be reviewed on screen Sales Compensations › Accrual Records, but since their usage is optional and depends on your project needs, you might find the list empty.
