Version 1.1.2.0

Version 1.1.2.0 adds editors for accounting policies and approval policy versions.

  • Accounting policy editor. Commission Accounting Policies has New accounting policy, Edit draft, Validate, Activate, New version and Delete draft. A policy sets the recognition mode, expense and liability timing and closed-period behavior. Validate checks that the combination is one the accounting engine supports and that a capitalize policy has a benefit period. An active version never changes; a change is a new version. Capitalize policies need the Deferred commission accounting module. See Commission accruals.
  • Retire or replace an approval policy. On Commission Approval Policies, Retire policy ends an active version on a date you choose, with a reason. New version copies a version and its stages into a draft; when you activate it, an active version with no end date ends on the day before the new version starts. Requests already submitted finish under the version that routed them. See Approval policies.
  • Readable card titles on the approval policy, batch run and scenario cards.

Version 1.1.1.0

Version 1.1.1.0 adds sales rep earnings pages, the hierarchy editor, team target allocation and multi-stage approval policies.

  • My Earnings for sales reps. My Earnings, My Earning and My Calculation Trace are read-only and scoped to the rep's own participant. See Sales rep view.
  • Rep and manager tiles on My Commission and My Team Commission now compute for reps and managers.
  • Commission Hierarchy Editor and Allocate Team Target. See Sales hierarchies and Quotas and targets.
  • Multi-stage approval policies. Approval policies with ordered Approval stages can be authored in the client.
  • One AI switch. Every AI capability, including earning explanations and the dispute assistant, follows the AI plan drafting module. See AI plan assistant.
  • Simpler Commission Feature Management. The license tier column is removed, the Advanced forecasting module is no longer offered, and module pages are searchable in Tell Me only while their module is on. See Optional modules.

Release 1.1 (version 1.1.0.0)

Release 1.1 targets Business Central 28.0 and introduces switchable modules. Upgrading from Core 1.0 keeps all data and switches on every module the company already uses.

  • An always-on core and nine switchable modules in Commission Feature Management: Quotas and targets, Advanced commission models, Cash-based eligibility and holds, Disputes, Advanced approvals, Multi-currency, Deferred commission accounting, Simulation and forecasting, and AI plan drafting.
  • Set Up Bitta Commission with eight plan styles and Preview on last month, Commission Setup Imports for Excel templates, setup checklist helpers, fifteen industry templates and Copy Configuration to Company.
  • New measure bases, flat amount and tiered models in the core, and the advanced models in their module.
  • Batch, trial and scheduled calculation runs with a run log.
  • Settlement through Accounts Payable, payroll-ready export, generic export or manual payment, with the Commission Remittance Advice report.
  • The Bitta Commission Role Center, the Commission Metric Catalog, analysis reports with Excel layouts, Commission Multi-Company Consolidation and reporting APIs. See Commission reports and API reference.

Core 1.0

Core 1.0 was the first release. It covered flat-rate and progressive-tier commission on posted sales invoices and credit memos, with eligibility on posting at 100 percent, no hold days and a single currency, plus settlement, payroll-ready export, G/L posting, participant statements, and disputes with scoped payment holds.
