Odoo 18 Sales

From lead generation to contract closure, salespeople and the sales team play a critical role in managing client interactions in Odoo 18 Sales and guaranteeing a seamless sales cycle. They provide successful client needs management, follow-ups, and personalization of the customer experience. They play a crucial role in maintaining quotas, monitoring sales performance, and utilizing correct data to support strategic decision-making. They help the firm succeed generally and increase income by coordinating activities. Therefore, Odoo 18 Sales launched a new Sales Commission plan to manage or motivate the sales team and salespersons. 

Salesperson commissions in Odoo 18 Sales can be controlled by setting up compensation rules according to sales performance or particular standards, such as sales goals or sold goods. Custom workflows in the sales or invoicing modules can be used to build up automated commission computations. In order to monitor and control commissions and guarantee payout accuracy and transparency, the system can also produce comprehensive reports.

Sales commissions can be configured from the Odoo 18 sales module. So the user needs to change the configuration. First, enable the Commissions field.
