Rejecting Commissions
You can reject a commission that NetSuite properly calculated but you do not want to pay.
For commission transactions that were entered incorrectly, you should edit or delete them instead of rejecting them.
To reject a commission transaction:
-
Go to Transactions > Commissions > Approve Employee Commissions (Administrator).
The Approve Commissions page displays a list of commission transactions pending approval.
-
In the Pay Commission Using field, select either Payroll or Accounts Payable.
The Approve Commissions page lists commission transactions by sales representative, based on whether the employee is paid through payroll or accounts payable.
-
Select a Posting Period from the available open periods.
If an accounting period was closed since the authorization of a commission, the first open period defaults as the posting period. To select another open period, you must go to the commission transaction, then select another open posting period.
Important:If there is no defined posting period, users with Manage Accounting Periods - View permission see a suggested accounting period. The suggested accounting period appears in the Posting Period field on the transaction.
-
Click the date next to the commission you want to reject.
The commission transaction opens.
-
Click Reject.
The commission has a status of Rejected by Accounting and no longer appears on the Approve Commissions page. To resubmit commissions for approval, delete the rejected commissions on the Commissions page. Then, reprocess the commissions.
To view a list of rejected commissions transactions, go to Transactions > Commissions > Individual Employee Commission > List. On the commission register, underneath Filters, select Rejected by Accounting in the Status field. Rejected commissions also appear on the Commissions Overview report.
