The broker table is used to define each external broker who sells for your organization.
The broker is assigned to a sales order based on the customer broker assignments. Commissions will be processed only if the Broker Commission setting in the Ledger Options is set to Y (Y=yes). Commission rates are based on the commission type assigned to the item. Ledger Options also assign the default broker commission expense and payables accounts. The broker expense account can also be assigned in Sales Category or at the broker level.
Brokers are assigned to customers on the customer record, or from Customer Quick Maintenance. The broker assigned to an order can be overridden in the Sales Order based on the Broker setting for the user in User Options.
Commissions are paid to the broker in Commission Processing.
