Manual commission calculations in Excel are becoming unmanageable and the addition of paid-account tracking will require more time than available, risking the need for a dedicated commissions specialist.

Excel cannot handle complex commission calculations with multiple plans, tiers, and outlier conditions, nor track commissions on paid accounts efficiently, leading to unsustainable manual workload.
