Work Smarter, Not Harder: Elevate Your Team From Tactical Tasks to Strategic Leadership
In today's fast-paced business environment, compensation teams face a common challenge: spending countless hours on tactical work instead of driving strategic value. We've heard your frustrations, and we're excited to introduce a series of new features including our refreshed Quotient admin experience to streamline compensation management and unlock your team's strategic potential.
Operate more efficiently with the Quotient Admin Experience
Empowering Admins with Comprehensive User Management
User management in an Incentive Compensation Management solution can often be tedious and wasteful. CaptivateIQ is introducing new features to streamline these administrative tasks:
- Employee Hub: The centralized user profile provides admins with a comprehensive snapshot of each user's attributes, plan assignments, payouts, documents, and status across plans and roles.
- User Directory: The user directory combines users and their role information in a single place, allowing admins to manage roles, licenses, and associations in one interface.
- Bulk Editing: Bulk editing allows for quick, efficient updates to multiple users at once with just a few clicks.
Streamlined Plan Management for Better Decision Making
We've reimagined plan management to provide instant insights and faster execution. The new Plan Overview Page delivers critical metrics at a glance, from year-to-date commissions to latest payouts. With detailed change logs and error notices, admins can quickly identify and resolve issues before they impact payouts.
Smarter Capabilities for Faster Payroll Processing
The best compensation processes are the ones you don't have to think about. We're introducing payroll processing capabilities that eliminate repetitive tasks and expedite time–to-payroll. These include:
- Advanced Filtering: Saved custom filters allow admins to create and save custom filters for commonly used scenarios, like checking payouts over a certain amount. Admins can easily access it from the saved filters dropdown for repeated use.
- Payout Error Tracing: Payout errors are now surfaced directly within the new payouts experience, with a dedicated errors tab that groups and organizes issues for easy identification.
- Payroll Grouping with Global Attributes: Users can now segment payees in payroll groups based on shared global attribute values, making commission processing more streamlined and efficient.
- User Filtering: Admins can filter users by attributes like license status, employee ID, role type, commission plans, and final process date.
Going Global: Enhanced Language Support
As organizations continue to expand globally, we're proud to announce support for Polish, German, and Japanese languages, making Quotient truly international.
Territory Optimization for CaptivateIQ Planning
Territory Optimization is an advanced feature within CaptivateIQ Planning that empowers revenue leaders to create balanced and effective Territory & Quota allocations. It uses advanced automation and customizable rules based on key metrics, such as ARR potential, conversion likelihood, and account tiering, to deliver optimal results.
The Impact: Move Beyond Administrative Tasks
The refreshed Quotient admin experience isn't just about making tasks easier – it's about transforming how compensation teams work. By streamlining administrative processes, we're helping teams:
- Reduce time spent on routine tasks
- Minimize errors and improve accuracy
- Gain deeper business insights
- Focus on strategic initiatives that drive business value
Looking Ahead
This is just the beginning of our journey to transform compensation management. As we continue to innovate, we remain committed to our mission: empowering compensation teams to move beyond administrative tasks and become strategic drivers of business success.
