How to handle Finder's Fee?

Posted on by 1,445

We are a distributor that sells products directly to the end user.  We buy items from vendors and resale to our customers.  What is the best way to handle a finders fee when a vendor sells direct to our customer and gives us our percentage of the sale.  We want the salesman for our customer to make the commission that they would normally make if they sold it.  Would it possible to show this as a sale for our records?

Thanks,

Michelle

    Why wouldn't you set this up as an inventory item with item Type of Service.  You would never have inventory on this.  And when the revenue came in create the invoice and put in the amount received as a deposit (paid in full)  Qty would be 1.
