about
EPINC, a premier recruitment agency known for its successful placement of high-quality talent, faced significant challenges in managing commissions for their recruiters working with multiple clients. The process was intricate and consumed a lot of time. To address this issue, they sought the expertise of Everyday Consultants, a reputable provider of business solutions. Together, they designed a tailored commission tracking system using Zoho Creator. This case study delves into the problems encountered, the bespoke solutions devised, and the outcomes realized from the implementation of Zoho Creator.
The Challenges
EPINC was grappling with a complex commissions structure that varied significantly across clients. Each client had its own unique set of rules and calculations, making manual management of these complexities not only error-prone but also extremely time-consuming. Furthermore, the agency was frequently faced with data discrepancies and errors, a problem largely attributed to manual data entry and a lack of real-time visibility into commission data.
The existing system’s inefficiency posed another major challenge. Recruiters were spending a substantial amount of their time on administrative tasks, diverting their attention from their core responsibilities. Additionally, EPINC required an efficient method for generating client reports. These reports needed to detail commissions earned on placements as well as provide information on candidate placements, further highlighting the necessity for a more streamlined and efficient system.

Everyday Consultants do
Everyday Consultants utilized Zoho Creator to craft a bespoke commission tracking system for EPINC, designed to meet their unique needs. They developed a custom data structure within Zoho Creator to accommodate the multifaceted commission rules of each client. This allowed for the automation of commission calculations, significantly reducing the risk of errors. Additionally, they streamlined data entry with custom forms, providing real-time visibility into commission data, which was a major step in enhancing accuracy and efficiency.
The implementation of Zoho Creator also meant that commission calculations could be automated based on specific rules for each client. This eliminated the need for time-consuming manual calculations, further improving the process’s efficiency. To provide recruiters with a comprehensive overview of their earned commissions, a user-friendly dashboard was created. This dashboard enabled them to track the status of placements and view historical data, providing a clear picture of their performance.
Custom report templates were another significant feature of the solution. These were developed to generate client-specific reports, thereby simplifying the process of sharing commission information with clients. This feature not only saved time but also ensured consistency and accuracy in reporting, further enhancing the overall effectiveness of the system.
