• Key Concepts: 
  Assignment type is a feature of ICM Incentive and Commission Management (ICM) that allows users to define the rules and conditions for how incentive and commission payments are calculated. It is used to define the criteria for when a payment should be made, such as when a certain sales target is met or when a customer reaches a certain level of loyalty. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use assignment type, users must first define the criteria for when a payment should be made. This can include setting sales targets, defining customer loyalty levels, or any other criteria that the user wishes to use. Once the criteria have been set, users can then assign an assignment type to each payment that meets the criteria. This will ensure that the payment is calculated correctly and that it is paid out in accordance with the rules and conditions set by the user. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up an assignment type, it is important to ensure that all of the criteria are clearly defined and that they are easy to understand. This will help to ensure that payments are calculated correctly and that they are paid out in accordance with the rules and conditions set by the user. Additionally, it is important to keep track of all of the assignment types that have been created so that they can be easily accessed when needed.
