• Key Concepts: 
  Base value participation is a feature of SAP ICM Incentive and Commission Management (ICM) that allows users to define a base value for a commission plan. This base value is used to calculate the commission amount for each participant in the plan. The base value can be set as a fixed amount or as a percentage of the total commission amount.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use base value participation in SAP ICM, users must first define the base value for the commission plan. This can be done by setting a fixed amount or a percentage of the total commission amount. Once the base value has been set, users can then assign participants to the plan and the base value will be used to calculate their commission amounts.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up a commission plan with base value participation, it is important to consider how the base value will affect the overall commission amounts for each participant. If the base value is set too high, it could result in lower commissions for some participants. It is also important to consider how changes to the base value will affect existing participants in the plan.
