The problem

Commission spreadsheets cost you money and recruiters.

Commissions are how recruiters keep score. When the math lives in a spreadsheet that one person updates monthly, errors creep in, disputes flare up, and your best producers start looking around.

Spreadsheet math, real money

Manual commission calculations drift from actual placement margin, so payouts are quietly wrong in someone's direction every month.

Disputes burn trust

When recruiters cannot see how their number was computed, every payday becomes a negotiation, and disputes poison the floor.

Complex plans, fragile process

Splits, tiers, draws, and house accounts stack up until only one person understands the spreadsheet, and they are on vacation.

The solution

Payouts computed from the same numbers that run your business.

Commissions in GorillaWorks are not a side calculation. They derive from the live gross margin of every placement, the same margin your P&L sees.

Margin-based calculation

Commissions calculate from actual placement gross margin as timesheets are approved and invoices go out, not from estimates rebuilt at month end.

  • Driven by live placement margin
  • Updates as hours are approved and billed
  • Adjustments and credits handled cleanly
  • Same numbers as your P&L

Splits, tiers, and plans

Model the plans you actually run: splits between recruiters and account managers, tiered rates, draws, and house accounts, all computed automatically.

  • Multi-recruiter splits per placement
  • Tiered and threshold-based rates
  • Draws and guarantees supported
  • Plan changes versioned and auditable

Transparent recruiter statements

Every recruiter sees their pipeline of earned and pending commission, with the math visible per placement. Payday stops being a negotiation.

  • Per-placement commission breakdown
  • Earned versus pending visibility
  • Self-serve statements for recruiters
  • Dispute-proof audit trail

Connected to payroll and the placement

Approved commissions flow into the payout process, and every number traces back to the placement, timesheet, and invoice that produced it.

  • Payouts flow into payroll processing
  • Traceable from payout to placement
  • Recruiter performance reporting built in
  • Margin by recruiter at any moment

How it works

From placement margin to recruiter payout in four steps.

  1. Plans are modeled once

    Splits, tiers, draws, and house rules are configured per recruiter or team, then versioned as they evolve.

  2. Margin accrues live

    As timesheets are approved and invoices generate, each placement's gross margin updates in real time.

  3. Commissions compute themselves

    Every recruiter's earned and pending commission recalculates automatically from the live margin.

  4. Payouts go out, traceably

    Approved commissions flow into payroll, and every dollar traces back to its placement and invoice.

FAQ

Commission tracking FAQs

What staffing and recruiting leaders ask about automating commissions.

What is commission tracking software?

Commission tracking software calculates recruiter and salesperson payouts automatically from placement economics instead of manual spreadsheets. GorillaWorks computes commissions from the live gross margin of each placement, applies your splits and tiers, and gives every recruiter a transparent statement.

Can it handle splits between recruiters and account managers?

Yes. Placements can split commission across multiple recruiters, account managers, and teams in any proportion, and tiered or threshold-based rates apply automatically as producers hit their numbers.

Where does the commission data come from?

From the platform itself. Because GorillaWorks runs timesheets, billing, and payroll, commission calculations use the same live gross margin your P&L uses. There is no export, no re-keying, and no month-end rebuild.

How does it reduce commission disputes?

Every recruiter can see their earned and pending commission with the math broken down per placement. When the calculation is visible and traces back to real timesheets and invoices, payday stops being a negotiation.

Does it connect to payroll?

Yes. Approved commissions flow into the payout process alongside regular payroll, and every payout is traceable back to the placements that produced it.

Can it model draws and guarantees?

Yes. Draws, guarantees, and house accounts are supported, and plan changes are versioned so historical payouts always reflect the plan that was in force at the time.
