In QuotaPath, the first step in setting up your workspace and automating your commission process is to create a compensation plan. A comp plan can be created and managed from the Plans page by clicking 'Plans' in the left hand navigation.
Compensation Plan Lifecycle
The Plans page is organized to align to the three states of a compensation plan: Draft, Active, and Archived. These states align to the lifecycle stages of the compensation planning process from comp plan design and modeling, to on-going measurement and optimization.
QuotaPath Compensation Plan Lifecycle:
Draft
Active
Archived
When a plan is initially created, it will automatically be put into a Draft state, where only Admins can view and edit the plan. This allows Admins to design, build and model the plan before plan assignees are able to view the plan.
When a plan is ready to be rolled out, an Admin can publish the plan. At the time of publishing a plan, an Admin can also request plan verification, which will prompt users to review and sign off on the plan. For more information on creating a draft plan and publishing it, please visit this article.
Once a plan is published, it enters an Active state, where Members, Team Managers and Admins can all view the plan. Admins will be able to continue to edit the plan.
When a plan is no longer in use, Admins can change the plan to an Archived state. All users will be able to continue to view the plan, but Admins will no longer be able to edit the plan. To learn more about archiving a plan. please visit this article.
