• Key Concepts: 
  Roll type is a feature in the CEC-SAL-COM Sales Cloud Commissions component of SAP. It is used to define the way in which commission calculations are rolled up from individual sales reps to their managers. It allows for different commission structures to be applied to different levels of the sales hierarchy. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Roll type is used to define the commission structure for each level of the sales hierarchy. It can be used to set different commission rates for different levels, or to set a single rate that applies across all levels. The roll type can also be used to define how commissions are calculated, such as whether they are based on total sales or individual sales reps’ performance. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up roll type, it is important to consider how it will affect the overall commission structure. For example, if a single rate is applied across all levels, it may be beneficial to set a higher rate for higher-level employees in order to incentivize them to perform better.
