Commissions
Track earned, outstanding and paid commissions with confidence.
Flowtig Commissions helps organisations manage commission cases from the initial agreement through to the final payout.
Every commission case combines all relevant information—including contract details, commission values, participants and payment status—while providing a complete overview of earned, outstanding and historical commission earnings.
Whether you work in real estate, sales or another commission-based business, Commissions keeps every commission transparent and easy to manage.
Built for transparent commission management
Every commission is managed as an individual commission case, ensuring calculations, team participation and payouts remain understandable and traceable.
Why use Commissions?
Commission-based businesses often need answers to questions like:
- How much commission has been earned?
- How much commission is still outstanding?
- Which commissions have already been paid?
- How much has each employee earned?
- Which commission cases are awaiting payout?
- How can commission calculations remain transparent?
Commissions provides a complete overview of commission cases throughout their entire lifecycle.

Commission Cases
Every commission is managed as its own commission case.
A commission case combines all information required for calculating and tracking a commission.
Typical information includes:
- Name
- Category
- Contract date
- Commission value
- VAT rate
- Total commission percentage
- Team participation
- Assigned participants
- Additional notes
Keeping all information together ensures every commission remains easy to understand long after it has been created.
Commission Calculation
Flowtig calculates commission values directly from the information stored in each commission case.
Typical calculation parameters include:
- Gross commission value
- Net commission value
- VAT rate
- Total commission percentage
- Team commission percentage
Calculated values remain linked to the underlying commission case, providing complete transparency throughout the entire process.
Team Participation
Commission cases can include one or more participants.
Flowtig keeps track of everyone involved, making commission distribution transparent and easy to review.
Typical information includes:
- Assigned employees
- Team participation percentage
- Number of participants
This allows commission cases to accurately reflect collaborative work while ensuring every participant's contribution is documented.
Earnings Overview
Commissions provides a continuous overview of earned, outstanding and paid commission amounts.
Instead of manually maintaining spreadsheets, organisations can instantly see the current state of their commission business.
Typical questions include:
- How much commission has been earned this month?
- How much commission is still outstanding?
- Which commissions have already been paid?
- Which commission cases are awaiting payout?
This makes Commissions a valuable tool for both operational work and financial planning.
Outstanding Commissions
Outstanding commissions remain visible until they have been paid.
This allows organisations to:
- Track open commission payments
- Review pending obligations
- Prioritise upcoming payouts
- Maintain a clear overview of outstanding balances
Status tracking helps ensure that no commission payment is overlooked.
Commission Status
Each commission progresses through its own lifecycle.
Typical statuses include:
| Status | Description |
|---|---|
| Draft | Commission case has been created |
| Pending | Waiting for review or payout |
| Paid | Commission has been paid |
| Cancelled | Commission case is no longer valid |
Status tracking provides a clear overview of outstanding commission payments.
Commission History
Every commission case remains available after completion.
Historical commission data helps organisations analyse long-term performance while providing a reliable audit trail.
Typical questions include:
- How much commission was earned this year?
- Which employee generated the highest commissions?
- Which commissions have already been paid?
- What was the commission value of a specific property or project?
Historical data remains searchable and available for future reference.
