Bonus Merit System
Knovada Bonus Merit Benefits
Online Bonus Merit Module
Our online bonus merit system provides
organizations with the ability to auto-
mate the bonus and merit process within
their organization; thereby reducing the
time taken to calculate, validate and
award bonuses or merit increases. The sys-
tem facilitates proactive communication
between the manager and the
employee and can be used to document
meetings and discussions that have
transpired. Such a capability provides an
audit trail in case there is a dispute
regarding an employee’s bonus or merit
increase. To manage the system, different
levels of access are provided. The bonus
merit administrators have full access to all
sys- tem features and capabilities; the
bonus merit human resource users have a
limited access to the employee
information; and the managers only have the ability to view information within their
organizational hierarchy.
The first line manager has access to the
manager summary screen to see
summary information for their direct
reports and make merit and bonus
recommendations for all employees who
report to them. Additionally, they can
click on an employee name to see the
employee detail screen for that
employee to make recommendations for
each employee individually.
This allows the manager to have access
to the employees previous bonus and
merit information together with annual
salary, wage type, employee work status
such as part time or full time, determine if
the employee is eligible for a bonus or
merit, employee performance rating and
standard bonus percentage and merit
amounts. The managers also have the
ability to view bonus and merit
recommendations that are pending sub-
mission for approval. If a fixed bonus pool
is established for the managers, merit and bonus recommendations made by the
mangers automatically decrease the
funds available in the bonus pool.
The Second Line Manager Main Menu is broken
into two sections – the Direct Report
Recommendations Area and the Review and
Approvals Area can use the Review and
Approvals area of the screen to review Merit and
Bonus recommendations made by their reporting
managers for their employees. The managers has
the ability to approve recommendations with or
without changing individual recommendations;
drill down to individual employee
recommendations and modify one or more Merit
or Bonus amounts before approving; and/or
create reports to compare recommendations and
allocation of pools across their managers and their
direct reports.
Any manager above the first line manager in the
hierarchy may review and change
recommendations for any employees in their
chain of command. Pool information for second
line managers and above is broken into two bonus
pools – the first is for their direct reports only, the
second is the accumulation of all pools for all
managers in their hierarchy which includes their direct report pool amounts. When managers
assign Merit and Bonus recommendations to their
employees, their pools are decreased
accordingly.

BI-CRM System
Online BI-CRM Module
Our Business Intelligence – Customer
Relationship Management (BI-CRM)
Solution provides organizations with the
ability to automate all customer
interactions throughout the enterprise
utilizing a common customer record. By
consolidating multiple customer touch
points from across the enterprise,
individual organizations have access to
their own unique data elements through
their customized views while facilitating
the sharing of required information
throughout the enterprise. Such a 360
degree view of each customer/client
interaction which is consolidated within a
single customer record by our CRM
Module serves as the foundation for the
overlay of our Business Intelligence
Module to provide meaningful
information and critical benchmarks to
enhance the decision making process. As
displayed on the organizational flow
below, a tremendous amount of
information is gathered on each and
every customer interaction by a number
of individual organizations.
This information can prevent a
detrimental impact on an organization’s
ability to achieve additional sales
revenue due to poor customer service by
keeping all the information for a client
visible to required personnel within the
organization.
Likewise marketing campaigns must be analyzed and evaluated to determine
where future marketing budgets should
be focused. These are just two examples
whereby our BI Module can provide logic
and intelligence to this vast array of data;
enhancing the decision making process
by management; ensuring that
organizations have a coordinated view of
their client base; while facilitating the
development of new strategies based
upon past successes or failures.
In addition to the traditional customer
relationship management functions, our
solution likewise supports the unique
marketing and sales activities, which are
associated with an organization’s
alliances and value added resellers
through our Partner Relationship
Management Module (PRM.)
With our PRM, an organization will have
the capability to ensure their alliances
and resellers are achieving their
objectives such as revenue targets/
quotas and royalty payments. Through
our PRM, reseller territories or products
can also be defined and customers can
be assigned thereby avoiding channel
conflicts in their respective markets. Our
newest version of BI-CRM will incorporate
a Salary Administration Module to
manage and administer salary and
compensation plans for the marketing
and sales representatives. Our Salary
Administration Module will provide accurate and timely compensation
information for management review
together with a direct link to an
organization’s payroll system.
Recognizing the requirement that each
segment of an enterprise will view their
specific customer/client interaction from
a different perspective, our CRM Module provides the ability for each segment to
define their unique views through an
easy to use graphical user interface and
customization wizard without impacting
the metadata structure or new release
compatibility.
