Case Study: Developing a Tour Guide Commission Management System in Swaziland

Problem Statement:

The client required a comprehensive solution to monitor and manage the activities of tour guides, including the calculation of commission earnings. The system needed to support tour guides from South Africa and calculate commissions based on the amount of sales generated by the tourists they bring to the shop. In the case of multiple guides, the commission was to be divided among them. Furthermore, the system needed to calculate the tax owed by guides who were not from Swaziland and provide reports that reflect their activities, commission earnings, and tax owed.

To meet the client's requirements, our team of developers created a highly functional and user-friendly Tour Guide Commission Management System.

Features:

Commission Calculation: The system automatically calculates each guide's commission based on the sales generated by the tourists they bring to the shop. In the case of multiple guides, the commission is divided equally among them.
Tax Calculation: The system calculates the tax owed by tour guides who are not from Swaziland.
Guide Activity Reports: The system provides detailed reports of each guide's activities, commission earnings, and tax owed.
