Salesmen

System Location: Settings > Tables > Salesmen

Salesmen Codes, or Sales IDs, provide the means to store contact and commission related information for your business' sales representatives that can be used to calculate commissions earned from sales transactions.

It is suggested to create a "House Account" for filtering and printing purposes if a specific sales person is not associated with some or all sales transactions.

Action Buttons
Save (button)

This button is used to close the record and save any changes that have been made while it was open. In addition, the dropdown button allows you to Save and:

  • Close - close the open record.
  • New - open a new blank record.
  • Print - print any of the reports related to the open record.
Cancel (button)

This button is used to close the record without saving any changes that may have been made while it was open. If this button is used after a change has been made to the record, the system prompts to verify whether the record should be closed without saving the changes.

Answering "Yes" to the prompt closes the record without saving the changes.

Answering "No" to the prompt leaves the record open.
