• Key Concepts: 
  Interval distribution is a feature of SAP ICM Incentive and Commission Management (ICM) that allows users to define a range of values for a given commission or incentive. This range is then used to calculate the amount of commission or incentive that should be paid out for each transaction. The range can be based on either a fixed value or a percentage of the transaction value. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use interval distribution, users must first define the range of values for the commission or incentive. This can be done by setting a minimum and maximum value, or by setting a percentage of the transaction value. Once the range has been defined, users can then set up rules to determine how the commission or incentive should be calculated for each transaction. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up interval distribution, it is important to consider how the commission or incentive will be calculated for transactions that fall outside of the defined range. It is also important to consider how changes in the transaction value will affect the amount of commission or incentive that is paid out.
