-
Dealer Costs: Visibility into holdbacks, floorplan costs, and invoice-to-selling-price adjustments.
2. Commission
The Premium feed provides exact payout figures for every role involved in a transaction:
-
Roles Covered: Salesperson, Sales Manager, Finance Manager, Closing Manager, and BDC User.
-
Payment Types: Tracking of standard commissions vs. "Spiffs" (performance incentives).
3. Financial Reconciliation
