	<GeneralSection><Paragraph>When SSA ERP calculates the commission(s)/rebate(s) that are awarded to a relation for closing a sales order, it first searches for the applicable commission/rebate agreement, which you can define in the <Link href="/baanerp/td/cms/tdcms0130m000" role="session">Commission Agreements (tdcms0130m000)</Link> and <Link href="/baanerp/td/cms/tdcms1130m000" role="session">Rebate Agreements (tdcms1130m000)</Link> sessions.</Paragraph>
		<Paragraph>It is possible that more than one commission/rebate agreement can be applied to a combination of sales orders and relations. In such a case, SSA ERP selects a commission/rebate agreement according to the priorities specified in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/td/cms/tdcms0100s000#search.1" role="formfield">Priority 1</GUIRef> fields in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/td/cms/tdcms0100s000" role="session">Commissions/Rebates Parameters (tdcms0100s000)</GUIRef> session.</Paragraph>

				<ListItem>Agreement B specifies the commission for relation group G01.</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Agreement C specifies the commission for the combination of John and item X05.</ListItem>

			<Paragraph>If John is a member of relation group G01 and he sells an item X05, all three agreements can be applied.</Paragraph>
			<List><ListIntro>Suppose the following commission search priorities are defined in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/td/cms/tdcms0100s000" role="session">Commissions/Rebates Parameters (tdcms0100s000)</GUIRef> session:</ListIntro>
				<ListItem>Priority 1: Custom/Rel /Projec/Item</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Priority 2: Rel /Item / /</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Priority 3: Rel / / /</ListItem>
				<ListItem>Priority 4: Rel.Gr/ / /</ListItem>
			</List>
			<Paragraph>The resulting priorities of the commission agreements will be:</Paragraph>
			<TABLE border="1"><TBODY><TR><TH>Commission Agreement</TH>
						<TH>Type</TH>
						<TH>Priority</TH>
					</TR>
					<TR><TD>A</TD>

				</TBODY>
			</TABLE>
			<Paragraph>As a result, commission agreement C has the highest priority and will be applied: John gets 3% commission.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph>If John sells an item Y07, only agreement A or B can be applied. Since agreement A has a higher priority than B, John will receive 2%.</Paragraph>
