• Fragmented commission data: Payments weren’t consistently linked to their source opportunities, making it difficult to track earnings accurately and forcing heavy manual work.
• Complex commission structure: With 25% paid upfront and 75% over time, accurate tracking required advanced configuration and dependable data mapping.
• Limited real time visibility: Sales reps lacked an easy way to see up-to-date commission status, ramp progress, or the impact of specific deals.
• Data relationship constraints – Spiff couldn’t natively leverage Salesforce relationships between SObjects, requiring extra setup in its UI Data Mapping feature.
• Record grouping limitations – Inability to group records by a shared parent (e.g., opportunities by account) without workarounds, creating challenges in matching invoices to opportunities and calculating the remaining 75% payout.
• Pre-implementation validation: Commission logic needed to be thoroughly tested in Excel before moving into Spiff to avoid miscalculations.
• Data synchronization delays: On-demand sync was not always immediate, causing occasional lags in commission updates.
